    Shredded beef tacos
    Christina V.

    Such a great local Mexican spot -- definitely one of our favorites close to the house! The food tastes like comfort... their rice and beans remind me of my grandma's from back home in Northern Cali. So good. The crunchy shredded beef tacos are my go-to every time. My 12-year-old loves the rice and beans too, plus the street asada tacos. And my hubby is all about the fried fish -- his favorite on the menu. Service is great and attentive, and the decor gives off those authentic vibes that make you want to stay awhile. Such a gem -- we'll keep coming back!

    Chicken burrito

    I wanted to love this place. Looked very authentic walking in and the waitress was so nice but the food is nothing special. My burrito actually came out a little cold which I was surprised because it had hot cheese on top of it. We had a larger group so it was probably hard to make it all and keep it warm but cold Mexican isn't enjoyable. All of their burritos have the beans and rice inside and they give you the option to have outside but then the burrito is a little plain. I also didn't think the queso was that flavorful (we got it with chips as an appetizer). It's not bad, there's just other options that are more my style.

    THEFT. In the picture 4 meals purchased and an added gratuity mandated for tables of 6 or more. On top of GOD AWFUL SERVICE.

    Refused to return since 2023, went back the first time tonight 3/26/26 GARBAGE AZZ service. Not to mention these folks must be on ICE alert they stole a 12.87 tip considering they added a 20% gratuity to my tap for a 4 not 6 dinner service. You've been warned I will never return.

    We love this place, from the indoor decor to the lights at night. No matter what server or how busy it is, the service is always fast and friendly. Definitely a favorite place! The meals and drinks are generous! Great food, drinks and price. Servers remember names and frequent orders!

    Dry crisp piece of chicken

    I was excited to try this place after hearing many raving reviews. Some were saying this was the best Mexican food in orange city. I was underwhelmed when I came in Saturday night. We were turned away 25 minutes before closing because the chef decided to "call it a night", as we were told by a staff member. It wasn't a problem, so we decided to return the following day. Very disappointed overall. The only saving grace to our experience was how friendly the staff was. Gonzalo our server was nice, and other staff members stopped by to check on us. The bathrooms were dirty, tons of dust accumulated on surfaces, and not great tasting food. Would not recommend.

    Staff is friendly, food is good with great portion sizes. Taco Tuesday is a blast. I always enjoy coming here. Iv never waited to be seated. Service is always prompt.

    Taco Tuesday Special. A Lunch Feast for 1 under $15!!
    Chris D.

    Was recommended to try next time I was in Orange City area and although a bit apprehensive, I'm SO glad I did and that it also happened to be on Taco Tuesday!! Didn't look like much on the outside, but it was packed for lunch inside. Waited in line for a table, but once seated I had fantastic server Eliseo. The place was buzzing with everyone working hard to clean tables and get the orders out quickly. I was impressed by the teamwork and kindness of the staff. I was unaware they provided complimentary warm chips and salsa and was grateful when they were placed on my table. On this visit, they had a Lunch Menu where I tried the Red Beef Enchilada w beans and rice. There was also a Daily Special Menu that included Taco Tuesday for $1.45 each! The homemade Salsa, Pico and Hot Sauce were ALL delicious and I added them to my items (especially the beans that were tame for all the different tastes and ages present). My enchilada was plentiful and the sauce, although mild, was really authentic and delicious. The street tacos were served carnitas style regardless of the type of meat (I ordered 1 of each to try) and I found them a bit dry so I put some lime, salsa and hot sauce and found them delicious as well. All in all, it was a fantastic lunch find and I most certainly will be back often. Thanks for a nice visit and perfect lunch!

    Here is a suggested amount to add to the automatic of 18%

    The food and atmosphere is very Mexican The service is great, with salsa and chips to snack on. But there is one catch on my last visit that was disappointing. We are three couples that visit this place every few weeks. This last time, I wish they warn us about an automatic tip on the bill prior. On parties of 6 or more We are normally good tippers This may effect return visits as a group

    Crispy Beef taco, chicken enchilada, crispy shrimp tacos, yellow rice and re-fried beans. Yummy!
    Erik P.

    I think overall Mi Tierra is the best Mexican restaurant in the area. It has the best mix of things I look for in a restaurant. Location, atmosphere, food, service, and prices. Mi Tierra checks off all of these on my list. I've had the chicken tamale, crispy beef taco, crispy chicken taco, beef enchiladas, crispy shrimp tacos, crispy fish tacos, and of course the yellow rice and refried beans. Everything I've tried has been good. I could pass on the beef enchilada and crispy tacos though. I'd say the tamales have been the best item thus far. The Cadillac margarita (special) was incredible. A great price for a huge monstrosity of a drink! Add a shot of 800 tequila to it and fugghedabouttit! I really like the spacious parking, excellent service we've experienced, solid food, and good prices at Mi Tierra. This is currently the go-to Mexican spot in the Deltona/orange city area until another spot takes the crown.

    Burrito. I slathered the sour cream and guacamole on top before realizing I should get a pic.

There were kids running up and down the isles that were part of a birthday party we were told was in the back part of the restaurant. There were multiple children running up and down the aisles during our entire 1.5 hour visit. Our server told us the supervisor said they had told this party multiple times that this was unacceptable and that the children needed to stop. It did not, until finally all of the parents left with their children and the party ended. My mother in her 70s was ran into by some of the kids and they just laughed. We witnessed six other elderly people with impaired gait almost being knocked down in this establishment by these children, running up and down the aisle. We witnessed it as they were coming into the restaurant and as well, as they were leaving and saw that these elderly people were also in the handicap spots and children running all over in the parking lot around them . Our server said a few of the children had ran into her, and that the supervisor had again told them and their parents to stop but there was no resolution until the party ended. So all of the people in the restaurant were exposed to this dangerous unruly behavior. We witnessed when the children were told to stop running their aggressive and some unwillingness to comply by continuing to behave in this manner.

The restaurant is spacious, beautifully decorated, and has such a welcoming atmosphere. The staff was incredibly friendly and kind, which made the experience even better. The food was delicious and everything was well seasoned. I ordered the tacos al pastor, and while I personally would have loved a little more meat and some pineapple (I know every place makes them differently!), they were still very flavorful. My best friend and her husband are vegan, and they were so happy with the vegan options available. They really enjoyed their meals and said the seasoning was spot on. The only small critique was that the rice was a little salty, but overall they loved everything. We also noticed they have happy hour every day, and they were showing the FIFA match, which created a fun, lively atmosphere. Even though I'm not a huge soccer fan, it was nice to see everyone enjoying the game together. Overall, we had a wonderful experience. Great food, great service, and a welcoming atmosphere. We'll definitely be back!

We stuck strictly to tacos, and honestly, it was hit or miss depending on your taste. I ordered the pastor and chorizo. The pastor had decent flavor but could have been juicier. The chorizo was a letdown for me -- it had a pasty consistency, almost like refried beans, and was heavy on potatoes, which wasn't what I was hoping for. I also tried a hard shell pastor supreme, expecting an authentic house-fried tortilla, but it reminded me more of what you'd get at Taco Bell. My husband went with carne asada, chicharrón, and chicken. The carne asada was juicy but the flavor just didn't hit the way I expected. The chicken was good but came shredded. The chicharrón had solid flavor -- I just personally struggle with the texture, though that one's on me since I knew going in! One thing all the tacos had in common: the meat portions felt too small for the size of the tortillas. Personally, I wouldn't classify this as truly authentic Mexican, but that's just my palate. My husband, on the other hand, loved everything -- so clearly taste is subjective! Don't just take my word for it. Give this place a try yourself and form your own opinion. It may not have been for me, but it just might be for you!
