This place is great! We had a delicious dinner of pupusas, fajitas, chicken soup, and grilled chicken with pineapple. The ingredients are fresh and the fajitas were more not greasy at all. It's a very casual and friendly atmosphere. The service was friendly and welcoming to our family of 4. I love that they have healthy options like chicken soup on the kids menu. And the portion was fantastic! The prices are very reasonable too. read more

Such an amazing place! We were looking for the perfect spot to celebrate my birthday that could accommodate our whole family and offer something for everyone, and this restaurant exceeded our expectations. The menu was incredibly diverse, with plenty of options for both adventurous eaters and picky kids. Every dish we ordered was full of flavor, fresh, and absolutely delicious. The portions were generous, the prices were very reasonable, and the service was wonderful. If you're looking for a family-friendly Mexican restaurant with great food, lots of variety, and excellent value, I highly recommend giving this place a try! read more

Wholly guacamole. Be prepared to be absolutely stuffed when visiting Mar Y Tierra. This Honduran spot will not let you down with their portions. We went for a lunch and I should have taken the rest of the day off after the nap I needed after eating here. We should have just split the nachos alone, never mind all ordering our own dishes after. Expansive menu with a little bit of everything catered to everyone's tastes. This isn't blow you away food, but the flavor and sheer size of the plates alone should make this a destination when looking for Hispanic food. I've driven by over the years and have always wondered. I'm so glad I took the chance and indulged. Check it out for an ample sized meal. read more

Hubby and I tried Mar y Tierra Restaurant while passing through Charlotte, NC to Ga. As per our waitress- Elena's recommendation, we had the Grilled Octopus with rice and fried yuka, and Shrimp and Octopus Ceviche. While waiting, we were served with freshly made tortilla chips and salsa with our drinks. The restaurant was clean, well lit, and had a feeling of openness to the place. They also had nice seating options either table or booth options. I liked the lively Saturday Night music vibes in the background and had a couple of huge TVs screens along the walls, stationed on a sports channel to pass the time. Although the wait was a bit too long waiting for our food, it was well worth the wait! Hubby's choice of Grilled Octopus arrived hot and was charred to perfection! It had a somewhat creamy spicy sauce over it, while it paired deliciously with the rice and fried yuka fries. I LOVED the yuka fries! I had the Shrimp and Octopus Ceviche which was presented beautifully with cucumbers, tomatoes, and avocados. It had the perfect balance of acidity, seasoning, and spiciness. We enjoyed eating it by itself and with the tortilla chips, which we had for the table. ALL of the dishes were perfectly seasoned, not overly spicy or salty at all, which I'm very sensitive about! Overall, the food was AMAZING and our waitress - Elena was "on point" with her recommendations! I would love to try more dishes too, if we have another chance to come back. MUCHISIMAS GRACIAS, Elena!! read more

We had worked a very long day down the street and needed a little food and a quick beverage. Little did we know that on Saturday night it's karaoke - the performers were awesome, outstanding talent. Our server was quick with drinks and we ordered nachos. You're the ones with chicken, which were big enough for four people to share. The toppings were fresh and the chicken seasoning was delicious. We may have found our new late night hang when we are in town. read more

Mar y Tierra Restaurant - Nachos - Mexican Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

We selected this restaurant based on its closeness to where we were staying and its yelp rating. They had an extensive menu. However, it was mostly in Spanish. The Mexican menu section was recognizable but much of the menu was Honduras related and the dishes were not familiar. We had the chimichanga, shrimp tacos and a chicken quesadilla. We also had guacamole and chips. The servings were large especially the chimichanga and quesadilla. Both had large amounts of chicken. The sides of salad, refried beans, and rice were also generous. However, the service was disappointing. Our server was pleasant and helpful in taking our orders. The time taken to prepare drinks (wine and margaritas) as well as the entrees seemed long. The guacamole was in the appetizer section of the menu. We expected it to arrive before the entrees but did not receive it it until well after the main dishes. The guacamole was fresh and tasty but too thick for the chips served with it. Our server never stopped to check on us after delivering our food. The next time I am nearby, I will likely go elsewhere. read more

Mar y Tierra (Honduran-Mexican). This was surprisingly good. Hubby got a simple chicken quesadilla. But the chicken had lots of flavor and was honestly exceptional. He also got yellow cherry juice to drink, which was unusual. I got a pork and cheese papusa, horchata to drink, and a Honduran version of steak sope called steak huarache that was very good. So much food, neither one of us could finish. Even the chips and salsa were excellent ! There's a huge variety of options on the menu. They have huge, comfortable booths that could fit 8 people and others that could fit 4. The atmosphere had a good vibe with bright colors, lighting, and latin music. Our waitress easily spoke English as did most servers that came to our table. Plenty of parking as it looks like this place used to be an old Wendy's. I'm definitely going back to try their desserts and cocktails. We saw table after table having desserts and cocktails brought out and this was at lunch on a Sunday ! They looked divine. One guy got churros and ice cream. We saw another get some type of cheesecake and it was huge. Definitely going back with the girls soon ! read more

I went when Honduras and El Salvador were playing. Later in the night they play all types of music, service was kind of slow but it was understandable since it was packed. Waited a bit for our food but it was tasted amazing one of the best pollo con tajadas I've had. read more

Mar y Tierra Restaurant - Pollo con tajadas - Mexican Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

Great experience. Tacos 1/2 off on Tuesday and Thursday. Hugh menu with Hugh selection to choose from. Being an appetite. Nice decor and friendly staff. The carnitas tacos I had were delicious and oversized. They came with a roasted jalapeno and an onion on the plate. This was an upscale addition. Many seafood options. You can split most meals. It says it is Honduran but it looks Mexican to me. Try it for an upscale night out. read more

Visited this place on two separate occasions And have not been disappointed. Both times I got a different type of steak and they were both amazing. The staff was very tentative and checked on me regularly. I plan on visiting every time I'm in Charlotte as it was that good. read more

Service was almost nonexistent and not one clear assigned server. It's a very confusing entrance-the hostess is on the other side of the restaurant when you walk in. This was my 2nd time before I wrote this review and it was worst than the first time. read more

Excellent food and portions. Authentic spot, but very hard to go wrong on anything on the menu. At first it seemed pricey but once i saw the plate I understood why. Great value for what you get and no lack of flavor. The service was as good as it could being that it had music blasting and karaoke going crazy. Very enjoyable. read more

Especial comida y ambiente... Excelente la atención por parte de Masiel y Braulio... Gracias por todo, no duden en visitar el lugar!!

This place had HUGE portions and great tasting too! I wish I took pictures but I was so hungry and I wasn't going to initially leave a review but I simply have to. We had a long day and missed dinner time and couldn't find any restaurants that were open later at night and this place was one of the few in Charlotte open til 11pm. We decided to go even though I wanted seafood- not mexican but boy I was wrong. They had a TON of seafood options and the prices were super reasonable. I ordered the fish dish and it was HUGE and delicious. My fiancé ordered steak and shrimp fajitas and the chef overloaded the sizzling pan that the meat was literally falling out. This place does NOT skimp. The service was phenomenal as well. Waitress was very kind and the price was right. Definitely highly recommend trying!!! read more
