Stopped for lunch here on a road trip. The service was exceptional. The waitress was so attentive and recommended some great options. It felt a little over priced but everything is these days. Food was hot and unique. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Also it was decorated very nice. Music was a great volume for conversation.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Had a lovely time at this Mexican restaurant.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The waitress was very sweet and pleasant and efficient. I love chips and salsa and I was able to get seconds when I finished off the first bowl. My 3 enchiladas were very good & served with refried beans and something else delicious. The margaritas came in small and large and since I was going to be driving home afterwards the small one was perfect for me. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place was clean, and pleasant, and prices were reasonable.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I'm sure I'll return again soon since it's a very convenient location for me. read more

This was our first visit to Mi Tenampa, and we were pleasantly surprised! A friend recommended it after we recently moved to the area, and since my husband and I rarely pass up a chance for Mexican food, we had to check it out. From the moment we walked in, the service was outstanding--even the cook came around to check on everyone's experience. The food was absolutely delicious. I had the carne asada enchiladas, and my husband ordered the arroz con pollo--both dishes were a solid 10/10. We also shared a regular pitcher of margaritas on the rocks, which went down smooth like water. The chips and salsa were pretty standard, but do note that if you ask for a refill, it's $2.99. One of the servers explained it's due to people coming in just for chips, salsa, and water. Having worked in the restaurant industry myself, I totally get it. The only downside of the evening was the trio dip. It included queso, bean dip, and guacamole, but the guacamole was mostly lettuce--pretty disappointing. It's advertised as house-made, but I've rarely had guac served with so much filler, especially with lettuce making up the entire bottom. That's the only reason I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5. Overall, the food and service were top-notch, and we'd definitely return. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It was surprisingly quiet for a Friday night, but maybe that just means more people need to discover this hidden gem just please fix the guac[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

I used to live out this way and came here semi-regularly but haven't been for years. I'm pleased to report that it's still a quality place to eat. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Friendly staff, lively music, and a nice dining area with a fountain and festive decor.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] And the food is tasty, too! read more

First timers tonight. We felt very welcomed and everyone was so nice. Service was a team effort and they took good care of us. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The big open space was nice as well.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The food was fresh and delicious. The queso was good on almost everything! We enjoyed the shredded beef in the El Jinete. It tasted like it stewed for a long time, very flavorful and tender. The chicken in the taco was juicy and well seasoned. Oh, it was Cinco today and they were very well staffed and well run. We'll be back soon. read more

Love everything about our visit tonight. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Restaurant is very clean, calm atmosphere.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Owner was very attentive and cheerful and prompt to seat us and to get our drink order. Great menu, not your typical Mexican place. Beer was cold, fajitas were plentiful and so good! Guacamole was exceptional and salsa had a nice heat to it. Will definitely be back. They've been in business 14 years, it's no surprise! read more

I can't say enough good things about this place! Right when you walk in the door you are greeted with a smile. The staff are friendly and quite literally make you feel like part of their family. You can tell they have regulars because they stopped and chatted with almost all of their guests about "how they'd been." This is always my favorite thing about a local restaurant. The set up of the place is really spacious and makes you feel like you're in a courtyard! We only ended up having a margarita pitcher and chips and queso, but both were great, so we will definitely return for a full meal. I would return just to be treated like we were on this Friday night read more

Learned about this place via Fox59 and tried it out for a late Saturday lunch as it was near the route of a trip we were making. Typical booth and table offerings in addition to a bar for seating. The employees are EXTREMELY pleasant and attentive. Prices are higher than what you see on their website, but still very reasonable. Food is excellent. My son devoured his Fiesta de Fajitas Trio. My wife's Enchilada's Veracruz was awesome. My Lunch Tamale was very good and I really enjoyed the mashed potato side that it came with. Would definitely frequent this place regularly if closer to where we live. read more

​​ [[HIGHLIGHT]]This is an absolutely horrible Mexican restaurant.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] You can make better food at home by adding taco seasoning to some ground beef and throwing it on a tortilla. The portions are very very small and you don't get nearly what you pay for. The customer service is horrible. They don't honor their coupons like they're supposed to and they don't care about their customers whatsoever! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Atmosphere is very nice and charming.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The service was amazing! Our waitress was very sweet, friendly and welcoming. I got a spicy margarita and it was very good. I ordered a shrimp dish and it was delicious. They kept the chips and salsa coming. Good prices! Husband loved his as well. Will be coming back! Great from start to finish! read more

Such a good place with good, quality Mexican food. Family owned and couldn't be nicer! Try the papas, you won't regret it!

The food is really next level!! This is not your typical Mexican restaurant! The food is so fresh and they serve amazing veggies. Chips are so light and fresh as well! read more

Food was delicious and I loved my margarita!! Server/bartender was amazing!! We will be going back soon!!

This establishment is family owned. The staff is friendly and welcoming. They work hard to ensure you enjoy your visit. The food comes out fresh if you have an issue just let them know. They are there to please. The restaurant is very spacious and clean. There is plenty of parking which is shared with other establishments. read more

Surprisingly bad food. Their cheese is just shredded colby. The chicken nachos had a smattering of mushy chicken draped in cold cheese. The small amount of guacamole was watery. The wait staff is very pleasant but the kitchen needs help. My sister and mother both had stomach problems thereafter, I didn't eat much. The menu prices are all whited out and hand written with obviously higher prices. When management spends more money doing this than actually replacing menus, that's a clue that money is tight and explains the poor food quality. None of us will ever return, I expect this place to close soon. read more

Unfortunately the food was quite disappointing. I ordered their beef fajitas, it was more like beef broccoli.

Run of the mill Mexican restaurant. Not super impressed. I will say that they have some cheesy potatoes that are different than other places and very tasty. I had a shredded chicken burrito with cheese on top. All of the cheese here is yellow and for me it just instant as good as the white variety. The salsa tasted very much like chunky tomato sauce. It was missing lime, seasoning, cilantro and onion. Overall I was just disappointed. read more

Mi Tenampa - Chicken burrito. Just okay. - Mexican Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

Food was average...nothing really to rave about..we ordered Arroz Con Pollo, meat was flavorless, Queso and chips were okay...meh... Margaritas were actually the only thing I would return for... Service was pleasant... read more

Amazing service and food. The ambiance was quiet and comfortable. I had the enchiladas verdes and they were delicious. Will go back to try the carnitas. Don't miss out on this restaurant. read more

I just ordered takeout and the menu online does not reflect the correct prices. I asked why was there such a difference, they said inflation. Basically we paid $72 fir about $50 worth of food. The fajitas came in some sort of sweet sauce. I would have never ordered. I used to frequent this place a lot but, there are so many other Mexican restaurants around that are cheaper and the food is better. I have uploaded a photo the shrimp fajitas. read more

I came in here actually not really wanting to, as a co-worker had told me she'd eaten here 2-3 times and each time it was just meh. But I'm always in search of decent Mexican. In the end, this was decent Mexican. Not great, but better than I expected. I had the carnitas, which were served as small medallions of pork, with refried beans (no rice, can't stand it), guacamole, pico and lettuce, all on fresh, hot flour tortillas (you can ask for corn tortillas instead). I thought they were pretty good. Again, not the best I've ever had, but better than I expected. The beans, guac and salad were ok. The tortilla chips and salsa were quite good, but the salsa was served in small bowls and I had to ask for refills twice. Washed it all down with unsweetened iced tea. The service was good, and the prices are a reasonable despite the signs posted around the restaurant stating that the prices have been jacked up because of inflation and the cost of doing business. I would definitely come here again if I was in the area. read more

Great service. Food was good. There was only 2 other tables of people though. The beans were very good. The flan was delicious. read more

Mi Tenampa - Lunch menu - Mexican Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

Don't go to eat here ! Me and my family came to eat here and ordered our food and at the end found out they raised the prices for the food we had ordered!! We asked the boss of the place why the prices were different and she told us she forgot to tell us the prices were higher now! Absolutely unacceptable, it was her job to let us know about the food prices being different from the menu. Fake advertisement. read more

This place is absolutely TRASH!!! I ordered fajitas and he ordered nachos. My fajitas had both steak and shrimp with ZUCCHINI BROCCOLI CARROTS and onions. No peppers. They said that's how the make theirs and that you only get peppers during lunch. What? Then his nachos was ridiculous. Looked like something a child made in a cooking class. I will never go back. We paid $36 for that foolishness. We should have just walked out. read more

I hope Mi Tenampa becomes su Tenampa! The staff here are always friendly and welcoming. The owner, formerly a chef at Abuelo's, has continued to provide flavorful food that's the hallmark of his prior employer. The nacho chips are always fresh and hot while the salsa is authentic. The salsa has just enough kick but not too hot. I have dined both in and to go. Tonight I ordered fajitas carry out along with an order of Tamales. The tortillas were nice and warm and the trio of meat well seasoned. The tamales did not disappoint as they were full of chicken and the meat sauce was an unexpected plus. There were only two negative reviews regarding this visit: 1. the prices on the web hasn't been updated so you might want to confirm the cost of your order 2. They forgot my tortillas for the order; however, upon calling and letting me know they corrected it. Overall, this will not keep me from returning. read more

I never would have eaten here had it not been a favorite go-to place for my colleagues at work. During the weekdays there is always an available table and it isn't ever noisy. Weekends are different and have more traffic. Their chips are my absolute favorite- thin and crispy. They provide each person with their own salsa bowl and it's mild and fresh. I love their mashed potatoes with cheese here! The customer service is always on point, very attentive and hospitable. This restaurant is in my rotation of favorite Mexican eats! Definitely worth checking out. A good place to go if you have large groups too! read more

Mi Tenampa - Cheesy papas, refried beans, & chicken quesadilla - Mexican Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

Love this location. The staff is always courteous, food is tasty with plenty of menu items to choose from. It is my go to spot if I am craving something with a Latin flair. Plenty of parking. Missing the mariachi band after Covid hit. read more

By far the worst service I have had in a long time. Orders were entirely mixed up & they couldn't figure out which dinner belonged to who & left it to us to switch entrees from plate to plate. We couldn't get refills for our drinks so I finally had to take the glasses to the bar where another server was very rude to me. However the food was great but expensive. For those prices the service should have been top notch, but I'm sorry to say it wasn't. I won't go back. read more

I love this place! Owner is very friendly. Margarita's are the best around and food is great!

This is a nice non-chain local Mexican restaurant. While there is no Gluten Free menu per say, the staff is always very friendly and helpful when helping me with their menu when determining what I can and can't have. The food is pretty good and relatively cheap, and the quality of food doesn't suffer. One of the best side dishes and one of their signature is their pureed papas. One tip is that if you are coming to dine, checkout coupons4indy.com to save money on your meal read more

We recently visited this place and I guess once again we went when the owner wasn't cooking. We ordered tacos and they tasted just OK. I remember we used to go there when the owner was cooking and the food was INCREDIBLE. But now it is just another Mexican restaurant with bland/bitter-tasting food. :( So sad. This was a tester visit to see if their food quality improved since our last visit. Sadly it was also our last visit to this place. Best of luck to you guys. read more

I think this place gets overlooked by a lot of people including me. They have the best chips and more importantly, it's not that same Mexican menu u see at 90% of the other Mexican places. They offer some unique dishes, and they have different side dishes than most.bthe regular beans and rice are available, but They have a great version of mashed potatoes. A creamed spinach dish with some cheese in it. And I love their simple but tasty strawberries and cream desert. If you re out P Pike and looking for a good bite near Oaklandland Rd, I think you ll be happy with this affordable but slightly unique take on Mexican. Make sure u get the desert! read more

The only down side to this years visit was our favorite waitress wasn't there. read more

Horrible horrible service. I waited 20 mins for someone to acknowledge me. She skipped over me & took other people's orders. Just horrible experience all around. read more

Rude waiter......only stayd becauce I was tired, not up for cooking at home and already waited long enough

The food offerings are similar to other Mexican Restaurants in town. But they do have some very different foods on the menu. Such as Pureed Papas. These are similar to mashed potatoes with Mexican Cheese. Very Good I must add. Potatoes are a big food in Mexico so why not here. The flan is to die for. Wait Staff are very courteous and efficient and helpful. The fajitas are great. See the Valentine's Day 2012 Promo Picture that I uploaded to get an idea what they look like and a look at the interior of the restaurant. It is beautiful. Good bar variety. Everything is FRESH.
