    Good atmosphere, great food and service. I've only been once, but I felt the menu was full of inventive and tasty dishes. I ordered the duck carnitas tacos and my partner got the steak fajitas. The duck carnitas were novel and delicious, their rice and beans were above average. The fajita steak was among the best I've had. I will be returning.

    The food, The food, The FOOD!!!!! So good that this is the 1st time I have overeaten where I am in pain. So delicious and you can tell the food was prepared as smart experience as well. The ambiance is a family upbeat atmosphere. Our server Myrna was amazing. Kind, attentive and her suggestions were spot on. Definitely making this place a top gem in Plano and can't wait to go back. The manager came and greeted us as well.

    Food here is pretty decent and the guacamole are ginormous and can feed a group of 4 . Some of the tacos can be better in flavor but it's decent enough and drinks are also decent .

    Bf and I had a good dining experience here. Came in on a Saturday night with an estimated wait time of 25 min that was more like 15. Vibes were lovely at night, very low light and upscale. I got the steak fajitas. Definitely some of the best steak for fajitas I've had as my go-to for Tex mex. Very tender, easy to bite through. However, they didn't give me many toppings. I was given guac, sour cream and cheese along with tortillas. At other places I often get lettuce and tomatoes, lettuce at a minimum, so my fajitas felt a bit empty with just meat, cheese and sauces. Came with rice and beans, but I don't like either so they were given to my bf, who said he liked them. Bf got duck carnitas and enjoyed them. Said the duck was indistinguishable from something like pork but that they tasted good anyway. He really enjoyed the jam like sauce that came with and the beans. Overall, I enjoyed this place and would return. Bonus: we were given a WHOLE bag of chips with our to-go boxes unprompted. Win!

    The best experience! Super sweet waitress- she explained the whole menu to us, including drinks, food, and history of the restaurant. She was amazing- I'm doing this review well after visiting so forgot her name but wish I could give kudos to her! We enjoyed our drinks, one recommended by the waitress- the riviera Maya. Both were great (and definitely had alcohol- be warned!) food was amazing! I wanted to try the spicy Santa Fe sauce, so I did enchiladas with two different sauces. The salsa was amazing. Chicken in enchiladas wasn't dry and the tortillas were so good. The manager came by to check on us, and after finding out it was our first time there, offered us free dessert! We unfortunately ran out of time and had to get going to an event, but overall a great experience and we talk about this place all the time!!

    Mi Dia From Scratch is a great place to grab some lunch. I stopped by with some coworkers. The menu presented us with some difficult decisions. I ended up ordering the green chile tacos -- and they were really good! At first I thought that they were a bit small and that I hadn't ordered enough food - then I started eating them - and then I realized I couldn't finish. There ended up being more than enough. The tacos were - having the green chile - were on point. The staff were very friendly and the place is quiet enough where you can carry on a conversation. Will definitely be back!

    We were there celebrating our 10 year anniversary. This was our first time being there and won't be our last. The food was amazing, our server Myran was amazing she took her time to explain the menu and had a cheerful attitude. The ambience is very nice we came at 5:30 but I'm sure an evening the lighting would be very romantic.. The manager took care of us as 1st time guests, Very much appreciated.

    This place is mostly stellar and lovely. Nearly all the staff were sweet and the food comes out very quickly. My frustration and lower star rating is because of the manager. It's quite off-putting that the manager went to every CAUCASIAN table and asked how they were doing and if they did needed anything. Yet he ignored us because we're minorities? And this happened multiple times throughout our meal. It's a little discouraging so we will probably abstain from coming to this particular location in the future.

    So this is Mexican food in a New Mexico style. This CA girl approves! We loved everything we got- no Tex Mex here! We recommend the tampequina and Santa Fe section of the menu in general. The salsa was flavorful and fresh.

    My son flew into town and took me to such a nice dinner at Mi Dia. We hadn't been here before and walked in a little after 5p on a Friday. We were seated immediately. Our server was super sweet and had the best energy. He totally made our experience 5 stars. Loved him! We both started with spicy pineapple margs. These go down fast! We ordered the table side guac, delish!!!! We were pleased that when we said spicy it definitely had a kick. Our spicy isn't usually the idea of a restaurant's spicy when we do table side guac. We both said "this guy took us seriously". We both strayed away from basic items we were going to order when our server suggested different menu items and ordered two of the same entree, really hoping it was good. The shrimp enchiladas were OUTSTANDING!!! I mean, think you may have been eating them in CDMX if you didn't know you were in Plano, outstanding! Our server was the cutest little thing, with so much personality and really fun, he suggested a couple of really great cocktails for round two. We totally trusted him and had no clue what we were ordering when the first arrived, "when hell freezes over". This drink was impressive. I don't know that I'd need it on a regular basis but happy we tried it. The second was a dessert cocktail and soooo yummy, almost like an adult milkshake in a martini glass. We shared both and enjoyed the dessert cocktail with an on the house dessert of our choice ( a scrumptious Rocky road esque homemade ice cream, that was superb!) since we mentioned it was our first time here since I moved to town. Mi Dia came as a recommendation from a neighbor of mine and her daughter who spoke highly of them. Such a great spot, can't wait to return! By the time we left the entire place was full. Service exceeded my expectations and was really above, felt so nice, kind and sweet for our first time visit.

    Mi Dia never fails to impress. From the food to the friendly service, I'm a fan. This location was nicely decorated with a center bar filled with different types of tequila. The tableside guac is always a star and a must for the table. Socially with all that good bacon mixed in, really filling and delicious and I also like to think it's healthy lol. The table salsa has a good kick to it too. You end up eating so much chips because of all the great dips. The enchiladas were outstanding and our server hooked it up with the brisket. The tamale was awesome too. Everything just hits here but, beware, your wallet also takes a hit too lol.

    This may be my favorite more upscale Mexican restaurant yet!! Everything was so good and came out super fast, like under 5 minutes. My boyfriend raved about the sea bass tacos and we came back the next week. Def give this a try!

    Creamy cononut Margarita. Just ok
    Liza K.

    Gave this establishment a second shot because a friend wanted to meet there. Last time I have this place a 3-star. This round was a whole lot different. The vibe, energy, was great. We sat at the bar and had dinner because the restaurant was full on a Saturday evening. We ordered the ceviche, Carne Asada, and table side guacamole, which were all delicious and Strawberry and Mango Margaritas that were too strong or too sweet. It was the perfect balance. Both bartenders that helped us were wonderful and it changed my mind about returning. I'll be back.

    Is this place good for kids?

    i wouldnt say that it "is good for kids" but it is a family environment and if your kids are well mannered it shouldnt be a problem

    Can you get the tableside guacamole without bacon for vegetarians? Thanks

    yes it's table side- you can adjust it how you want !!!

    Is Mi Dia a good place for groups? Approximately 20 people for dinner

My enchiladas were bursting with chicken and the sour cream sauce was the perfect compliment. The rice was excellent as well. Even the iced tea is great, and featured a legit lemon slice. They have a full bar which I'll be trying on my next visit and two large TVs set where you can see one or both from any seat in the dining room.

The ground beef wasn't that good, chicken taco was better (surprisingly). Rice and beans were decent. Overall, didn't hate it here, but also not that great. There was a lot of people here and a lot of people waiting to be seated as well.

    I haven't been to Salsa Tex Mex in at least 5 years. My girlfriend happened to run into someone and…read morestrike up a conversation about food and this person let her know that Salsa had hired away the GM of a Gloria's and made improvements in their food, service, and "everything." What I can say is that Salsa now has salsa, chips and black bean dip just like Gloria's; yes, that iconic, tasteless black bean dip that could stand to have some salt, cumin, paprika, chili powder, black pepper, Mexican oregano and onion added - you know... adobo! Ambiance - basically a dirty school cafeteria. The floors have been stripped to concrete and the noise level is at a steady 80+ decibels. The chairs, tables and vinyl tablecloths ache for a good scrubbing. Speaking of noise - one of the margarita machines was as loud as a lawn mower. Why? Well when a random server saw me staring at the machine and asked me if everything was ok, I said, "you know, I think if the side panel were put back on, that margarita machine would be much quieter." He looks at me and says, "yes, but then it would overheat again because it is too close to the other margarita machine. It was quiet when we had it on the other side of the bar, but the manager wants them together." Then he laughs and walks off. Speaking of laughs, our server was a riot. We ordered a hamburger for our four year old. When ordered, I asked the server to bring mayonesa (mayonnaise) and not ketchup. She says, "ok, we don't have the mayonesa so you can have ketchup so that's ok." I asked if she had any other salsas like a salsa macha. She said they have a habanero and a molcajete salsa and brought them to us. The habanero was fruity and not at all spicy. The molcajete had actually gone bad. It tasted rancid and smelled. I told the server and she said, " oh no. Ok." Then she walked off and didn't take the bowl and no doubt didn't tell anyone. I ordered the Churrasco and my girlfriend the Rene. When our food arrived, the kids hamburger was placed on the table with a warning about the plate being very hot. Who puts a kid meal on a plate that is hot?!?! Also who puts a ramekin of chimichuri sauce on top of the steak? FWIW, the chimichuri was not even close to being chimichuri. On the upside I stopped a bus boy and asked for mayo and amazingly, he brought some. The server came back and said, "oh, you got mayonnaise!" Then I asked (in Spanish) why she told me she didn't have mayo. She babbled incomprehensibly in a mix of English and Spanish that was a mix of lies and half truths. Who lies about mayo for a kid? Our meals were unremarkable and tasted like Sysco foods TV dinners. The only thing that I can tell has been improved is the prices - in Salsa's favor. Salsa Tex Mex - do better. Hire staff that actually cares about your restaurant and customers. Train your wait staff. Improve your recipes, source higher quality ingredients, and simplify your menu. Fix your equipment and ambiance. 2 stars because at least the water glasses were clean, the margaritas were strong, we didn't have to wait long to check out.

The tamales were very good. (I'm picky about my tamales. I've tried their ranchero sauce, chili con carne, and sour cream sauce. None of them disappoint. Their rice isn't dry like it is at many other Tex-Mex places. And their $5.00 all day frozen margaritas are worth it. We usually go for the lunch specials that run until 4:00. They don't have mole on the menu, yet. I'm looking forward to their future specials. In this day and age where it's hard to keep a restaurant open, I really hope this one survives. It's not fancy, but the food and service make it worth it. And I'm a picky person when it comes to spending money on food I don't make myself.
