Stopped in for a road trip dinner and we were not disappointed. We arrived during happy hour and ordered 2x1 margaritas, after trying the first round, my sister who isn't usually a fan even ordered a round for herself. Chips and salsa were brought out while we waited and reviewed the menu. We downed the first order and asked for seconds when we ordered our meal. The second order of chips and salsa isn't free. Mom and I ordered Mexican tacos with carne asada and tamales. The rest ordered the 2 taco platter with hard tacos. The tamales were delicious and the Mexican tacos were loaded with meat. I can't speak for the regular tacos, but the rice and beans were a little bland. For dessert we shared the fried ice cream. We'll be back for the margaritas alone! read more

Can't believe that the new owner charges $3.00 for chips and salsa after first basket. The prices are WAY TO HIGH for this type of place. Min is $13.00 a person. Not worth it anymore. Old owner was better and less expensive. read more

Tacos or Rice with hot Meals "and Hrs Open late on Sat or Fridays "!! With specials "!!

We were working our way north and we're looking for a place to eat. They were open on New Year's day so we thought we would give them a try. I had a Peruvian dish, Ceviche Mixto, which was very fresh light and delicious. This is a place to remember and return to when we a passing through again in the future. read more

Unique Mexican and Peruvian food. Very pleasant atmosphere and servers. I ordered a combination dinner #7 - a burrito, an enchilada, and a stuffed pepper. All were large, covered with sauce and cheese and delicious. The Mexican Beer was cold and a mug was only $4. A giant mug was $8 plus. The place is a little hard to find an end cap in a new strip center just off I-75. I'll be back. read more

Lomo saltado and ceviche mixto! Can't go wrong. So tasty. Will definitely recommend. The service was good... came here for lunch, and did not disappoint. Only wished I was near that area more often, to actually become a regular! Keep the chef! He's doing a great job read more

I had visit this restaurant twice. Today, I decided to bring my family after my first awesome experience! You don't receive this type of friendly / familiar service at other restaurants! The food is delicious (specially the Peruvian menu) you must try Lomo Saltado or the Ceviche which is the best Ceviche I had ever have in Florida, very fresh! But what makes us return to this restaurant is the friendliness of the staff: attentive, friendly, fast and caring! Berenice, Javier, Esmeralda and the manager are just awesome! I love this place and I highly recommend it! read more

We stopped here for lunch and we're greeted by very friendly staff. There is a Mexican menu and Peruvian one. My husband had a mixed seafood ceviche that had the flavors of fresh lime. It was incredible. Shrimp, fish, calamari. Delicious! I had carnitas which were so juicy and flavorful. This good is made with love. What a wonderful find! I've already recommended it to my niece and I hope to come back on another trip down from Michigan. What a treat!! read more

Food is phenomenal! Ended up here for their happy hour and the two margaritas are the kind that sneak up on you! Had the fajita taco salad and it was fantastic! Would definitely recommend this to anyone in the area. read more

Stopped in for some good Mexican food before heading back to tennesse. Was bomb as fuck originally from Cali and it's hard to find good Mexican food in the south! read more

I had ceviche but it was very perfectly done in the Peruvian style I'm very happy to a found this little gem of a restaurant

Waited an hour and a half for our food, the appetizers came after. Food is not the best representation but for Ocala/Gainesville you take what you can get. Will save the Peruvian craving next time for a trip to Orlando. read more

My favorite place in ocala food is amazing ALL of it the big margaritas strongest I've had in Ocala. Totally recommend wish they were closer. read more

First I would like to say, I'm in the market to share my positive experiences more than my negative here on Yelp. I'm not in the business of bashing establishments unless it was a horrible experience..I really really enjoyed my lunch here today. I am traveling for work and this restaurant being right off the exit was perfect for me. By far the best salsa I have had in quite a while..nice and thin with large pieces of cilantro and onion, yum! I hope to visit this establishment again while traveling. read more

First time here and it was amazing!!! The service is stellar, food came out hot and fast, and the waiter recommended a dish that could not have been any better! Excited to come back! Great job guys!! read more

Great restaurant, fast service, and pleasant staff. We have tried both Peruvian and Mexican dishes and they have met expectations. Prices are reasonable. read more

Only order from the Peruvian menu. The Mexican food has no flavor. The meat is very flavorless. No spices or seasoning in their meat. The service was not horrible but not great. I asked for no beans and they put beans all over my plate. I told him I didn't order beans and he said oh sorry. Didn't offer to replace it. I had to call him back to say " hey just get me something else." But Taco Bell has far better Mexican food than this place. read more

Horse showing all day and staying across street at an awesome Hampton in we decided to walk over. Just salsa (get the red and verde), queso and chicken quesadillas. Amazing. The queso was warm and tasty, the salsa verde was spicy but very flavorful. The chicken quesadilla was huge and filled with chicken. Margaritas were big and tasty and models on draft was a bonus. Great service and next time here for horse show or traveling down 75 will do this again. Great job Mi Tierra Latina! We will return and you should try them too! read more

Always a great wait staff. Food is fresh. I eat gluten free and they fed me well, no chips though maybe bring my own, the salsa looks wonderful! Had the fajitas, so much food! Drinks are great too. Great hidden gem! read more

I admit it, the 10% discount for staying at the hotel prompted our visit. On a Friday night there were a few locals as well as other hotel guests. I eat more Mexican for lunches, and my first impression is always influenced by the menu, if they offer a "Speedy" plate for the most part it'll be a good meal. This visit it was dinner, time to order off of the adult menu. I went with enchiladas, rice and beans all delicious, all served hot and quick. The beer choices were average but they did offer specials and other than Margaritas the bar didn't seem to offer much more. read more

This is a hidden Gem. It was close to my hotel and my go-to in Ocala was closed on a Monday night. I had the #12 dinner and was very pleased. The salsa was also a treat. I will be back when in the area. read more

Had been going for years on a weekly basis, but lately must have a new cook as food on last several visits does not taste the same. Very disappointed. The last visit the Snapper came to the table over fried and looking extremely emaciated. Mentioned to hostess with no comment. read more

Mi Tierra Latina Mexican & Peruvian - Snapper? - Mexican Near Me - Ocala, Florida

Hidden gem in Ocala , everyone who likes El toreo would like this place better . Hands down the place is the most legitimate Mexican / Peruvian food I have ever had .

TIP $ WELL anywhere you go if you can ! read more

Barely edible. Ordered the "Ocala plate" which was supposed to include 3 bacon wrapped shrimp. Received 3 tiny shrimp dunked in a bowl of tartar sauce. They said "sorry we're out of bacon". Told them that was gross and I would not eat it. Still charged me full price. read more

My husband and I made a gut decision on our way to Ruby Tuesday as we were traveling. We are not from Ocala but we would come here again. Service was very polite and helpful. The prices were reasonable and the food was DELICIOUS. Portions are very large, so be aware. The chips and salsa we were brought while waiting were great. Best salsa I have had in a while. We both ordered from the "Peruvian" menu and were not disappointed. I have eaten in Peruvian places run by Peruvian people before and this measures up. Additionally, out of the 4 other tables there on a Sunday night, three were Hispanic patrons. Always a good sign for authenticity. I would definitely recommend this spot! read more

Mi Tierra Latina Mexican & Peruvian - Arroz con Mariscos - a seafood paella-like dish with a tomato base. Very tasty! - Mexican Near Me - Ocala, Florida

Found this little gem while staying at the Hampton Inn nearby. Food and service was on point! Thank you for the great experience.

This is my second time visiting the restaurant. The staff is very friendly and the food is genuinely very good. The waiter that served me previously remembered me too! The chips and salsa are made in house, come free with the visit, and are a nice treat. The margarita is perfect, and so was the very large steak fajitas meal I ordered. I will definitely be a regular here as I just moved to the area. read more

I used to go there quite often,The food was always good I would go at least 2 to 3 times a week for lunch and maybe one or two times for dinner every week, when the new owners took over I tried it one more time and I have to say it was very unsatisfactory. The food looks thrown together and was not even hot when I asked for some lemon or lime in my water the lemon was old and rotted. I have not since been back and don't intend to go back read more

Service is slow. Food is average at best. Taco salad was a little boring.. Could've used more lettuce and perhaps avocado. The shell was wet from the lettuce not being drained well. Chicken could have used more flavor. On the bright side the salsa was good. read more

We have eaten at this restaurant three times now in three years. It is on the path we take on our yearly journey into Florida. We have enjoyed it each time. Will definitely stop here again next trip. read more

Walked into the place and could not get past the smell!! Will not be returning. The waiter delivered our chips and salsa and we told him we were leaving. He never asked why or seemed to care. read more

I didn't like the food too much, in my opinion they don't have a big variety of food, they rush you into ordering the food which this is a negative for me. The chips and salsa didn't have too much flavor. I honestly wouldn't be returning here. read more

Very authentic quality. The beef burritos are fresh & tasty. Shrimp appetizer served in seasoned red sauce w guacamole chunks. Nice atmosphere with friendly staff. Also flan is outstanding. Leave some room for the richness read more

Food was AMAZING. Def worth the trip. They didn't have chips and salsa and were told they were making it. If they would've had good chips and salsa, would've been 5 stars all the way! read more

We went to their new location in Ocala Florida.- 3100 SW College Road (North of I-75) Actually rating is 4.5 stars Went there a few days ago; wife had the Peruvian dish Arroz Chaufa Combination with everything. Best fried rice she ever had, according to her; especially beating all of her favorite Chinese restaurants. In fact she liked it so much, she's gone back for take out a few more times! (When she's willing to go get it herself after coming home from work, you KNOW she loves it! I had the Bistec Encebollado, a Peruvian steak dish that was marinated with onions, Peruvian spices and rice. Service was good, but the place was empty and service still a little slow on getting beer and check. Food was cooked to order, so that wait doesn't count - if I want fast food, I'll go to a fast food junk place. Both were very flavorful and even better washed down with a cold Modelo Negro! read more

I have eaten here since the new owners took over and its excellent. The peruvian dishes are a pleasant bonus. Love the fresh salsa and the generous portions. Seasoning is great! Everything is always fresh and perfect! Suggestions: need more chicken dishes other than con mole... Las Margaritas has about six different grilled chicken plates. Also would be nice to see a home made hot sause or salsa. So, ding one star for lack of grilled chicken plates. read more

Stopped in on my way out of town and was not disappointed. It's very reasonably priced and the portions are HUGE. The food came out rather quickly and everything tasted delicious and fresh. I recommend the shrimp fajitas. read more

We stopped in while heading south on I-75. The place was not full with 5 or 6 tables being open. Service was SLOW! We ordered cheese dip and guacamole and had to ask for two additional times before it came. When it did come it came out with the meal. Throughout this process the waitress acted like we were bothering her for our service and food. The food was fair but very basic with not much flavor. All in all we were very disappointed! read more
