    Chorizo tostada
    Aimee H.

    Love the food here! Great prices, authentic Mexican food and wonderful service. We always have the tostadas, overflowing with guacamole, cheese and delicious meats like chorizo, steak or spicy pork. The burritos are "delectable!" Huge portions for a great price and bonus! The restaurant is very colorful, cheery and clean!

    Chilaquiles Regular and Enchilada de Pollo

    REAL authentic Mexican. Had a lovely experience at La Rancherita. Service is friendly and the restaurant is decorated beautifully. The food is fresh, hot, and spicy! The sauces were EXCELLENT and portions were huge! You can see the cooks preparing the food which is a green flag. It is very hot in the restaurant, as when I went, there was no AC, and the cooks were working so hard and diligently! Enchiladas were the best in all of Orange County! I will definitely be returning.

    First time to sit down and have dinner here. I have eaten there tacos before and they are great! Well it's very very hot and humid today. I walked inside and the place was empty and was very hot inside. So as we walked all the way inside it got a little cooler but still very hot. I guess there AC was not working well. I had the spicy pork meat burrito. It was very big and very good. The place looked nice and the service was good. They have only Mexican beer in bottles. No mixed drinks. Prices where good.

    Tacos were delicious! Autenticos!!!! big portions too! I had the chilaquiles verdes and i was soooo happy! they were spicy so i will warn you about that, but i would have them again in a heart beat! Si estan buscando por buena buena comida mexicana, vayan aqui no busquen mas!

    Nothing but fat thrown into a taco and covered up with guacamole
    Johnnie E.

    Ordered a few tacos on a whim. Chicken,Shrimp and pork and each variety was really flavorless.Wilted cilantro sat atop really soupy guacamole which covered the rubbery chicken as well as the entire piece of pork fat just thrown into a taco instead of actual edible meat. $34 gamble down the drain. Thankfully i have captain crunch in the pantry

    Deliciousness

    I love this place its a real hidden gem food is busten busten the portions are great you get a large portions for a great price. Honestly one of the best mexican restaurants better than charritos (overpriced and now overrated)

    Best Mexican food around in my opinion. Authentic and real. Cilantro and lime instead of cheese and hamburger meat... good prices. Nice staff. Cheap tacos. Huge burritos. What more can I say?! Great atmosphere with bright colors and paintings. Did I mention it's CLEAN? And that the food is delicious!

    Food is nothing to rave about. It's over priced and the prices change every time you go there. What's going on?

    Entre Tierra's is a very little Mexican restaurant in Monroe, set in a row of small businesses. The…read moremenu is in both English and Spanish, and it clearly caters to the locals. There's about five tables inside with the option for take out. The chorizo burrito my husband and I tried was insanely out of this world delicious. It was moist, well seasoned, had a good balance of fillings, and was still well cooked outside. I might be ruined for burritos now. It was that good. I also had the Milanez de Pollo taco, a thinly pounded breaded and fried chicken breast over rice all served on a slightly thicker masa tortilla. It came with sauted onions and jalapenos. There was a variant of it with hard boiled eggs too. I thought it was a good meal. The table sauces, red and green, are possibly home made? Watch out for the green bottle if you're more heat sensitive- I was on FIRE for a hot minute... but I also wanted more because it was tasty. Aside from the food we ordered they have a heckin' good amount of tortas, huaraches, sopas, etc which I would be eager to try. They also had horchata and fresh pressed juices available. Parking- there's street parking out front and a big parking lot available just a few doors down. The whole area is nice though- get a torta and go to the park or ride the rail-trail.

    Fantastic, authentic Mexican food. Torts Chilanga's, tacos, quesadillas... all good! Add the fact…read morethat the folks running the place are just awesome, friendly people. Highly recommend giving them a visit!!!!
