Disclaimer: This is not your typical grocery store. This is more of an H.E.B. married a Fiesta Mart and had the cutest baby grocery store you've ever visited. In case that didn't paint a good enough picture for you... this is basically a Mexican Target. You will leave with items you didn't even know you needed or wanted. I am fluent in Spanish so I can't honestly say that if you weren't you could easily distinguish the items sold here. That being said, Latinos are NOT the only shoppers that frequent this location so being a Houstonian has to play some kind of hand in the familiarity of the items right? You will find everything from groceries, supplies, and MoneyGram stations here. Did I fail to mention the delicious street food and fresh juices that are available? They alone are definitely worth the visit. read more

The store has everything including a all drink area. But I prefer Juicing because it has a lot of health benefits. read more

I walked in and felt as if through the front door I was magically transported to some awesome market or grocery store in a Spanish speaking country. I like it! I lived in Ecuador down in South America for some time years ago doing some volunteer work over there. I also travel to Mex every chance I get..... before the covid times. So I do very much have a fondness for establishments that remind me of places I've visited in other countries. I don't have some kind of specific product or anything like that to highlight. I just overall liked the experience of being at Mi Tienda. Has a great vibe to it in my opinion. I'll be back at some point to hang around here and see what interesting food finds I can pick up. I just remembered they did have and awesome deal on T-bone steak. $3 a pound. Picked up a few pounds of that. That I do remember. I really enjoyed being at this grocery store. read more

Love it! Friendly staff and they have exceptional extras like the cook to order tacos!

My boyfriend and I got tacos and my mom ordered a plate. The rice and beans were alright. Tacos were OK. Barbacoa was good, Al pastor was okay. It was cheap, but won't be getting anything other than the barbacoa next time. The agua frescas were absolutely delicious. My mom got pistachio, so creamy and yummy. I got the horchata and it was perfect. My boyfriend got sandía and it tasted so fresh and fruity. The real star of the show was the elote that they sell outside at the front. Honestly, BEST elote in Houston. And we got taki's on top for $6. We will be back just for the elote. The pan dulces and conchas were delicious too. read more

On some OG shit , this place is true blue Mexican. They crazy busy but this place is like home. The people can be nice but when your constantly busy some times your just trying to do your job. The food is good and worth trying . This place is busy like crazy so plan accordingly read more

This is deep Mexico with no need for a passport! This is much more than a store. It is more like a bazaar. It is definitely a pleasant cultural experience. Fiesta is good but this seems much more authentic. I love the experience! Everything you expect in a large grocery store with the exception of their AWESOME bakery. I didn't realize it but they are an H.E.B. store. I will come back with my Gringo friends. read more

I'm a fan of one stop shopping at places that have everything from motor oil to groceries. Unfortunately, because I'm a bit anti Wal-Mart, I find myself making multiple trips to a variety of places. At the very least, it's a reason for me to explore more of the area. And that's how I happened upon this little gem of a place. First impression: they have a chicharron bar! Ok, I don't know if that's what it's called, but it's an awesome display of deliciously fried pork skins and yes, I made sure to take some home. It's part of the restaurant in the store that serves all sorts of tasty treats that I hope to be able to partake in next time I visit. My primary reason to visit was to check out the produce. I was hoping to find a better array and more variety than I've been seeing on my other shopping trips at other grocery stores. Definitely found some good stuff: perfectly ripe papayas and mangoes, guavas, plantains, chayote and chiles, oh my! Fresh aguas frescas. Gorditas de azucar and churros near the exit. Elotes at the outdoor stand. Definitely spoiled my appetite for dinner that night. Next time I'll just eat my dinner there. read more

Mi Tienda - Chicharron at Mi Tienda - Grocery Near Me - South Houston, Texas

My mom purchased this cake for me today and as we were eating it, my grandmother bit into a FUCKING STAPLE!!!! My mom called and they hung up on her twice. She called again and spoke to someone that was completely indifferent, unapologetic and hell bent on us taking them the cake to prove it-- as if we would lie about something like this. She kept denying their use of a stapler in the bakery but I have seen with my own eyes, them staple receipts, etc. We buy cakes from this place quite a few times a year but this was the last fucking time. Something could've happened to my grandmother! Fuck this place! I would leave ZERO stars if possible! read more

I went on Saturday afternoon and wasn't able to walk freely. It was very packed. I felt it is like an H‑E‑B but with more restaurants or food vendors inside . read more

Yesterday I went there to do some shopping and decided to get lunch. I ordered the Chile relleno and while it was breaded which I like there was no sauce on it, just dry looking. The poblano pepper was raw and they stuffed it with 1/2 pound of cheese which was not even melted. I asked for a plastic knife and the lady says, we don't have any. What? How am I supposed to eat that dish. Additionally, when I paid for my food I had asked about a straw fir my drink and the young man at the cash register just motioned to me and said"over there." Over there where? Needless to say they do not have good customer service. I decided to ask for a manager and told her that I was actually in the store and she could easily see what I was complaining about. She did come by, a very nice person and was very apologetic. She comped my food and asked me if I wanted something else. I did take her offer and I decided to get two tacos which were good. I would give them 4 stars but they need to have more customer sensitivity training and teach their employees to be courteous and helpful to customers. The employees appear to be unhappy with their jobs. Come on HEB don't forget about Mi Tienda! read more

The Mi Tienda in Houston was wonderful! All the people there were so friendly and helpful..Their aquas frescas and tamales were so delicious!! read more

Love this place they have everything the food is delicious you can get a fresh goat the meat is always fresh the produce is fresh my go to spot for the whole chicken read more

Freakin love this place. Their prices are much more reasonable than going to a regular grocery store and better food as well!

Cue Vicente Fernandez, please: "Mexico lindo y querido, Si muero lejos de ti, Que digan que estoy dormidooo"!!!!!!!!!!! I'm not of Mexican descent but I ADORE the culture and all it has to offer. Growing up in SoCal, I fell in love with everything from the Rancheras (both canciones y huevos) to the food and aguas frescas from a young age. Talk about feeling lucky to have Mi Tienda in the Houston area! It's a one stop shop for great Carne Asada, fresh salsas, charbroiled chickens, chicharrones, and refreshing aguas frescas (Tamarindo, Horchata, Jamaica, Platano, and that's just the tip of the iceberg!).... And this is all just at the very entrance of the store! The store is laid out like a traditional Mexican marketplace, reminiscent of a Tianguis in Mexicali. It has a tortillera where they make fresh corn and flour tortillas. You say you feel like making your own? Not a problem... They carry masa preparada in different flavors for your tortilla and tamale hankering. There's a cheese section where you can buy all of your staples such as Cotija, Oaxaca, Fresco, and Crema. You can also buy prepared foods in the "deli" section such as fajitas, shrimp cocktails, carnitas, tacos, and burritos. Need to feed the family and don't feel like cooking? Pick up the family special for $10.99... you'll get 2 charbroiled chickens (made right in front of you), a family sized rice and beans, and a dozen tortillas. As you traverse to the back of the store you'll find the butcher block... WOW! Dirt low prices and such a crazy variety of poultry, beef, and pork. You'll find your ranchera cuts, chorizo, chivo (goat), carnitas, milanesa, and all of the cuts needed for a true parillada. Besides all of these exquisite treasures they do carry groceries and cleaning supplies like any other super market, after all, they are part of the H-E-B family. If you're in the South Houston area and are looking for a place to experience a taste of Mexico stop in and enjoy the scenery and the food :) read more

Mi Tienda is owned by H-E-B and they did an amazing job at making this place feel just like "Mejico." I will tell you this, the place is huge and has a lot of different stands where they sell natural juices (really called aguas frescas, which translate to fresh waters), Mexican food, cooked meats, a bakery and whatever your Mexican heart desires. I know, I know.. I'm not Mexican but I feel Mexican at Mi Tienda! As you walk into Mi Tienda you can usually hear the music before actually entering the super market, oh right, did I mention this place is a super maket!?? Or to better say: Super Mercado. The Mariachi music playing is the first thing that transports you to the land of Mexico and I hope you don't mind that it is SUPER LOUD! If the Piñatas, tortilla stand, elotes stand, Mexican products do not make you feel like you are in Mexico, all the people greeting you in Spanish will! If you still don't feel like you are in Mexico, then there is something wrong with you! lol, ok.. or maybe your imagination has left you for good(therapy should help? maybe?!). I usually go to Mi Tienda for Breakfast Tacos, which cost $.50 for the first 6 and $1.69 there after. I believe the corn tacos are fifty cents but the flour are seventy five. Tacos taste great! Only complaint is that they take forever to complete your order. They are also nice enough to take advanced orders. Sometimes I forget I'm in the states and start looking for pesos in my purse to pay the bill !! I kid, I kid. I love this place and the culture in there is awesome. If Mi Tienda was outdoors, I think they would have to start asking for passports to get in!! I'm a fan. =0} P.s. Mi tienda was actually awarded the: Best Hispanic Supermarket in Houston award by Houston Press. Check it out: http://www.houstonpress.com/bestof/2011/award/best-hispanic-and-10-supermarket-2677789/ read more

Loved it, almost like stepping across the border food was wonderful!, can't wait to go back

Line is long so get in and choose your offering from the posted combinations or order a la carte. I Ordered a #1 combo plate, ($6.99) 4 barLanding in Houston. How are numbers?bacoa tacos. You had choice of chicken, fajitas or barbacoa. Wanted to try the sausage so got a half link ($1.38 extra) I also ordered an orange Fanta ( in a bottle) ($1.79). There is salsa verde which has some kick to it, cilantro and onions, lime and plastic ware. This food is authentic and so is the atmosphere. I LOVE it! FYI- it helps to know Spanish!! read more

They don't care about cheating their customers, obviously. I had quite a time getting the sale price for something I found in a large bin on my way in the store. Even the bagger had a picture in his phone, obviously because he'd had to verify that before. The supervisor came by and she was quite rude. She explained that the 5 for 1 garlic hadn't been entered into the system and that was why I was being charged $1.67 for 5. When I tried to say something, she asked me to let her finish. Great customer service! So I wonder how many poor families who don't check their receipts had the pay the non sale price. Way to go guys! read more

I heard about this supermarket through a friend and honestly thought it was just a typical grocery store. I was in for a surprise! I came here mainly for the fresh elotes sold by a booth right outside the supermarket. I was mouth-blown by the freshness of the corn because it came straight from the cob. This is the ONLY booth that I can find that uses fresh corn. The elotes is plain with a small spread of butter on top. There is a condiment section where you can add your own mayo, lime juice, hot sauce, cheese, chilli powder, and lemon pepper seasoning. The BEST DIY elotes in the Houston/Pasadena area! The supermarket is special because it has a couple of mini Mexican restaurants inside along with a small cafeteria to enhance your dining experience. They even have a small tamales cart!!! In the same area, you can find fresh baked bread, homemade pork rinds, and tortillas. The tamales cart: I tried the chicken and the corn tamales. The chicken tamales is SPICY although I am baffled to where the spiciness is coming from. They grind/mix the chicken so well that I don't see any jalapenos/peppers. The corn tamales is sweet and makes me feel like I am eating cornbread. The price was about $1.50 for each tamales. Candy: I went a little crazy in the candy aisle. I got some dried apples and dried mangoes seasoned with Mexican lucas-like chili powder. It was delicious!!! Trader Joe's used to be my favorite place to buy chili dried mango but I found a new place for that! I also got the gummy watermelon soaked in the same seasoning. I didn't like it as much since it was too chewy for my liking. If you're looking for ingredients to make any Mexican/Hispanic recipes; I think you should come here! read more

I used to drive 1+ hour just to come and buy their Horchata. All their other flavored aguas are just as good as well. I'm just a huge fan of Horchata. Their pan dulce, churros, and elote en vaso are worth trying too. read more

Mi Tienda - A G U A S - Grocery Near Me - South Houston, Texas

Mi Tienda stores don't cease to amaze me. And I really have't gone through the whole grocery store. I've basically just visited afer working in the area to get an "agua fresca." Aguas frescas are those fresh fruit drinks in the huge glass containers. Being a Saturday and lunchtime, there were plenty of customers buying tamales, roasted chicken, bakery goods, tacos, cheese, fruits, you name it. I bought a taco and was served by a gentleman from the Dominican Republic. Employees have tags with their first name and country they're from. Honestly, I wouldn't expect to find someone from the D.R. working in Mi Tienda in Pasadena, Texas. I went through the bakery and they're smart to put it right in the entrance where I found a big Salvadoran quesadilla. These, as opposed to Mexican quesadillas, are a sweet bread made with cheese and topped with sesame seeds. I took a star off because I wanted a cheese pupusa and they only had mixed (pork and cheese). I ordered a chicken taco with nopal (prickly pear) and guacamole. The dining area has picnic-style seating with a big screen TV. Of course, they had a soccer game on. If I lived closer to the area, this would definitely become "Mi Tienda" "My Store." read more

How the hell can you not love a grocery store that has everything under the stars including whole pigs!? Has no equal...

One of my favorite grocery store, got everything i need, good lower prices and cheaper gas price, it sell grilled chicken fresh tortilla and they gave a cantina where you can order food and eat it right there. They sell flan in their bakery which is my favorite dessert. I missed this store so much. read more

worst tamales ever, had to throw them away because they did no look edible. Really disappointing..

I love the prices here! I drive by this place everyday to work, and I make sure to pay attention to their billboard outside with the specials for that week. Although it's in spanish, I use what spanish I remember from high school to read it. (They should translate the sign) Mi Tienda is owned by HEB which correlates to the low prices and fresh food. They have a large selection of everything. There's an area where they make different types of bread, drinks, snacks, and tortillas. All fresh and made daily! I especially enjoy the drinks and food that they sell. The watermelon agua fresca, mangonada, and elote is the bomb! read more

Greatest Mexican store ever! Made me feel like I was really in Mexico with fresh, delicious food everywhere.

I agree with others who have commented on this store. From the moment you enter the premises, you feel that have crossed the Mexican border. Most of the sales posters are written in Spanish with no English translation. The store is filled with authentic Mexican foods and utensils. It is a great choice for all your south of the border needs. My wife and I have searched many places for pure Mexican vanilla extract. It is very in other stores which carry only vanilla flavoring. Mi Tienda carries four brands of Mexican and Madagascar pure vanilla extract. I will definitely visit this store again. read more

Man o Man what a place. This store has everything that caters to the Hispanic community. This has a tortilleria ( fresh made corn tortillas), a fresh aquas (flavored water) stand, a taqueria/ grill and on the weekends barbacoa, carnitas, menudo and all that good stuff. They have a huge selection for fresh baked sweet bread and everything a normal grocery store has. This place is awesome i wish there was more of these stores around Houston. read more

This is a predominantly Hispanic type HEB but it has much to offer everyone. The prices are very reasonable, the produce is fresh looking and the aguas are simply amazing. Truly amazing! The main reason for our stop here was for the aguas frescas. I am a lover of horchata but when I saw the coco I knew that was the one I must order. The best decision was to order both. We shared because that's what good friends do and were happy. The aguas are so very flavorful and refreshing, especially in this horrible heat that the Houston area is plagued by. The horchata was so creamy tasting with the nutmeg being a standout flavor. I am fond of nutmeg so for me that was perfect. The coco was also creamy, cooling and full of fresh coconut taste. There were bits of coconut throughout so this agua had a little "chew" to it. The small deli looked and smelled delicious and I would definitely try many of the items in the future. The prices were very inexpensive and the servings that I saw were generous. The deli seemed very popular. The bakery was another stellar section. It was full of fresh baked goodies and the smell was so heavenly and sweet. The varieties of baked goods was abundant. The meats section was another area of abundance. There are so many meats to choose from and would be well worth the trip here to pick up some for cooking a Mexican type meal at home. The employees are friendly and the lines move efficiently. I have plans to come back here and purchase a few food items as well as enjoy more of the wonderful horchata and coco aguas! read more

Horrible. It's always a madhouse! The service is horrible. I think the only people who like this place are the people who fit/look the demographics. I'm not trying to be a racist since I'm a minority myself. I was waiting in line for like 20mins. and never even got acknowledged. Took my business elsewhere! Never again will I step foot in this hell hole. Reminds me too much of the hell hole they all try to escape! Skip it if you're Americanized ;) There are plenty of Mexican markets that are so much better where you get treated with respect and hospitality. Try Bravo Ranch in Pasadena for example! Excellent service and much cleaner so far.... read more

For me, this place is like home (Deep South Texas). They have got an unbelievable selection of meats and produce. I love the atmosphere and selections. Prices are moderate. read more

Finally a store where my mom can find everything she wants when she comes from Mexico. Same HEB quality, just more brands to choose from. Employees are friendly and helpful. You can dare and make your own tamales at home w their premix masa. Their carnitas at the restaurant are awesome as well. read more

Best Mexican food I've had in all Texas. Aguas frescas, pan Rico, fresh fruit salads. I swear I'm in Mexico!

I love this store! The staff is friendly, the hot food is good and you can find everything you need in this store.

over rated, expensive comparing to other Hispanic stores in the area, very dirty.
