    Old chips covered in old salsa

    So starting off we sat down, waitress came pretty quick got our drinks. We got chips and salsa. Then we proceeded to wait at least 15 minutes before she came to get our order, mind you 2 guys had walked in after us and sat in front of us. Our waitress came and took their order. By the time she came to get our order the guys, who came after us, got their food. She finally comes and takes our order and asks us if we want more chips. We get more chips, and as we're eating them my girl finds an old chip covered in old salsa. Which we can only conclude that they dump uneaten chips from past customers back in the chip bin. Thats not only gross, but genuinely unhygienic. So now not only are we grossed out by the chips but now we're waiting forever for our food. And we all got something simple, all three of us got enchiladas and one was a kids plate. They bring our food and don't bring our little girls at the same time. So again we're waiting on food so our girl can eat. Sad considering we usually have a good experience but today was ultimately not great.

    Sloppy puffy tacos and American cheese 43.
    Valentine R.

    I ordered a Care asada burrito and My wife ordered a two puffy Taco plate. Right away I noticed that they use American cheese, both my burrito and in my wife's tacos which has no place in any taco or burrito. Gross! The service seems okay but I guess it would have to be when your food is so horrible. I can't imagine how this place stays open. I do not recommend and I will never go back.

    3 Breakfast tacos  (Chilaquiles, Migas, & Potato and Egg).  All very bland and not what I expected.
    Alma V.

    Recommend: No. There are plenty of other places to get better tasting Mexican food and all within less than a mile or two from this place. Ambiance: I ordered my food through their drive thru so I can't really comment on the ambiance of the restaurant itself. It has patio seating and the area appeared clean. At the drive thru there was a sign that stated to "look at your order before leaving because they wouldn't make changes/corrections once you left" (I'm paraphrasing). This was a little concerning for me, because it led me to believe that this happens so often they needed a sign. Service: I ordered 3 different types of breakfast tacos and the wait seemed reasonable. The person i interacted with at the drive thru window seemed very nice. Food: I ordered 3 breakfast tacos: Potato and Egg, Migas, and Chilaquiles. It was a fairly simple taco order. The potato and egg taco had no flavor. When i opened the Migas taco it was not what I expected. Migas is typically scrambled eggs with cut up pieces of corn tortilla. What I got was egg, tomato, onion, very little corn tortilla, peppers (i believe jalapeno), and cheese. I just figured they made it differently. The flavor was ok (it at least had flavor) and it had some spice. i then opened the "Chilaquiles" taco and it looked and tasted EXACTLY like the Migas taco! Believe it or not, it didn't have flavor!

    Bean and cheese taco
    Maria T.

    I ordered a gordita with fajita and two bean and cheese flour tortillas tacos. I was very much dissapointed with the gordita. The meat was very dry and had no flavor. The gordita was small for $6.50. All it has is beans and fajita and they provide some pico de gallo that seemed more like cubed tomato. Definitely not worth the money at all. I do commend them for the bean and cheese tacos, those were delicious and soft and only $1.89(April 2025). They did come w/ small containers of red and green salsa. The lady attending the drive-thru was courteous. I wouldnt recommend this place unless you are just buying the tacos to-go but Im sure there's better places on FM78.

    Huevos Rancheros Plate / Potatoes hard as rocks
    JoAnna G.

    Went back today to try this place out again. Our waitress was Rosi. We sat at a table & she came and asked us what drinks we wanted. We ordered our drinks and placed our food order. We didn't get our drinks for at least 15/20 minutes. Then she slowly started bringing silverware and salsa to the table after getting our drinks, it took another 23 minutes to get our food. When it arrived, our plates were cold like they had been sitting out for a long time, they were not even warm, the potatoes were hard as rocks, horrible food I tried to give this place another chance, but it's just not gonna work out. Do not recommend this restaurant at all. Rosi was a horrible waitress she wasn't tentative at all and she didn't talk to us. Don't know if she spoke English or not because she took her order in Spanish.

    Burrito

    Portions are very small. Are prices are higher than other Mexican restaurants in the area. Wouldn't come back

    Aguacate torta aguacate Gordita and chips and salsa
    Christina S.

    Me and my husband have eaten here basically every Sunday for breakfast for like five years now. I love it because there's a ton of vegan options. My favorite is the potato a la mexicana tacos. Vegan! They also have aguacate tortas, with lettuce tomato and avocado. Just make sure to ask for no sour cream. And the aguacate gordita! That has avocado, beans and pico de gallo, all vegan. Love this place!

    Beef Enchiladas

    We were hesitant on trying out this place because it recently opened and the pandemic has made a lot of places hit or miss on quality and service but we're glad we went. You can throw a stone in any direction and hit a Mexican restaurant in San Antonio and this was one of the best places we've been too. Great chips, puffy, salty, warm, and salsa wasn't watery. We didn't wait long for food and vegetables were fresh, rice was fluffy, and tea was recently brewed. We were worried about "fresh" because it was only us and one other group in the place at the time. Very good, and attentive. We like how we can see the kitchen which looked very clean.

    I think this restaurant is pretty new. I was excited to try a real restaurant in the area since it's mostly fast food chains. I'm not an expert on Mexican food but we enjoyed our meal. We tried the chicken fajitas and enchilada de mole which both were tasty. Enjoyed the fresh corn tortillas. Thought the prices were very reasonable for the portion size. They have a bunch of different plates and serve breakfast all day. Hope they pick up in popularity since it would be nice to have a few more non-chain restaurants to eat out at. Would definitely come back and give something else a try.

In addition, there are artful configurations clustered with lots of color and spiritual references highlighting the Mexican American culture. Also, there are pinatas strung from the ceiling in metallic colors, which is a bit unusual for pinatas (usually made from paper). The restaurant also has stained glass windows and a mural. On this particular occasion, I was in the restaurant for bakery goods. Mi Tierra specializes in Mexican pastries. It looked like it would be a quick in and out, however, with so many sweets, every customer asked questions and deftly decided on their sweets de jour. Since I waited for a bit, I decided on three...peanut brittle (the hubs said he had not had any since childhood), pecan praline (for me) and a pecan pound cake (split between the hubs and myself). All were incredible delicious. Yep, we ate them all in one day. It is important to note that the prices in the bakery are extremely reasonable. Excellent sweets experience...

We ordered the half chicken ($11), and I was honestly surprised by how juicy and moist it still was inside. The outside had a wonderful smoky charcoal flavor, and the marinade was flavorful all the way through. It also came with rice, corn tortillas, red and green salsa, grilled jalapeño, lime, and grilled onion, so it was a really filling meal for the price. We also tried the Bean Burger ($9.79), which was a fun combination of a beef patty, refried beans, cheese, chipotle sauce, and pico de gallo. I enjoyed it, although I personally would have loved a thicker layer of beans. The green salsa was SO good that I ended up buying an extra container for about $5 to take home. The restaurant itself is very casual and no-frills, with a big charcoal grill that really adds to the atmosphere--you can see and smell the chicken cooking. It feels much more like a local neighborhood spot than a polished tourist restaurant. Service was also very friendly and attentive. Even though we arrived late, we never felt rushed, and our server checked on us several times to make sure we had everything we needed. I would absolutely come back for the chicken and green salsa.

The grilled fajitas were exceptional - meat perfectly seasoned and peppers and onions perfectly seasoned and cooked.

And of course - the green sauce - it's amazing! Our server was very friendly and prompt and the food came out quickly on a Saturday evening during prime dinner time. The true indicator of how good this place is - we were the only gringos in the entire restaurant! We will most definitely be back before long!! Well done!!
