    Mi Tierra burrito. Has a little kick!
    Carly W.

    When you live out east, there aren't as many dinning options at your disposal. That being said Mi Tierra is a solid (hence the "A-Ok" rating) Mexican restaurant east of Denver. I've been here several different times and the food it pretty damn good, though probably not the most authentic. My BF comes here more regularly than myself and enjoys the taco salad or one of the rotating specials. I like the Mi Tierra burrito. It is large and super delish. It comes out topped with avocado, pico de gailo, smothered in an enchilada type sauce, and packed full of peppers, onions, jalapenos, and your choice of meat. It's the perfect size for a hungry individual or has the potential for leftovers. While the service is alright, it's not fantastic. I would advise not coming here for a meal if you are in a hurry. My last couple visits around lunch hour seemed to take longer than expected; especially since our group of three were that only guests. Given how close Mi Tierra is to us, I know we will be back.

    Pretty good place. Had a combo meal smothered tamale, with flauta that I was able to substitute for the taco and a cheese enchilada. Kids had smothered burritos and hubby also had a combo meal. The ground beef was kind of interesting like it had a hash mixed in it. I wasn't a fan. So I probably won't order anything with that beef in it. But the shredded beef was fine. The family devoured the sopapillas with ice cream.

    Came on Saturday for lunch. Place wasn't busy. We were sat promptly but the hostess wasn't particularly friendly. We ordered + the food arrived quickly. Food was decent, portions were good but a bit smaller than other Mexican restaurants. I would have given a 4 star review but the hostess wasn't friendly and throughout our whole meal she was staring at me while cleaning menus in another booth-- it was awkward and will make me think twice about coming back. No one wants to be stared at while their eating.

    While traveling from Denver to Kansas City we found this place Decided to have dinner there last night First off the place is small but clean We were seated quickly ... We ordered our drinks ( the waitress didn't know what White Zin wine was even tho it was on their menu .. She had to get another server ) Got our drinks and mind you they were not busy only 4 other tables Took over 20 minutes for our server to come take our food order Food come out fairly quick hot We both ordered a combo plate and one thing that was very weird is they did not come with rice and beans Now we drive a semi and we travel all 48 states so we have lots of experience with Mexican food This isn't authentic by any means It tasted more like it was items frozen then heated and served It didn't taste bad but wasn't real Mexican or even Tex-Mex Now as for service .... They need to fire or retrain their servers Our server never checked once to see how our meal was... We had to flag her down for more drinks and then she never asked how everything was We had left overs and waited over 1/2 hour after finishing and still our server hadn't come back So again we had to flag her down to get a to go box and our check With being on the road all the time we eat out several times a day so I pay close attention to how servers behave Here if your a local I noticed you get the attention .. Exp .... I saw the servers including ours asking other tables is everything was ok and making chit chat Well that's fine and dandy if your only concerned about your locals However by not giving the same service to out of towners you really are messing up When we find a good restaurant close to a truck stop we tell all our driver friends ( I own Facebook trucking groups with 1000's of driver members) This will be one place I will tell the drivers to avoid Such a shame because the food was decent and the price was good However the service and attitude of the servers killed it We work too hard for our money to give it to a business who could care less with bad customer service

    The best,friggin awesome.

    Stumbled onto this place looking for parking. Without a doubt I would never stop eating here if I was local. Had a beer with tomato (michalada, friggin awesome). And carne asada with beans and rice avacado, pico de gallo, and a cheese enchilada with flan and coffee for desert very authentic nothing served from a can here #1 service from all. Stop here it's a gem in the rough.

Then my wife went there one time on a Tuesday and it was a good deal for tacos and margs. Fair enough! Then our faith in this place being good was restored, so we went a few more times. Today was one of the times. For a while we had been enjoying that they had half price fajitas on Sundays for whatever kind of fajitas you want. We had been there a few times and had good service and liked the food etc. Then today happened. It started with "we are out of steak ingredients". But also now suddenly the half price fajitas only applies to chicken fajitas... ok, I get it food prices are harsh now, so that's fine. So we ordered stuff other than what we thought we were going there for. And figured it would be fine. BIG mistake! First of all, the place was really understaffed and even though it was not that busy. Our server was running around like he was in the weeds the whole time. Data point: there only appeared to be 2 servers. Can't blame the server for that! That however did lead to where a great many things went downhill from when they said "we have no steak for anything". Items that were a bummer. No steak: fine- it happens Chicken fajitas: served with no tortillas at all even though extra tortillas was asked for. Chicken fajitas: somehow there was fish in them?!?! Like really?!? Wow. Charro beans: we both asked for those and apparently they ran out of those too, so only one of us got them and then they were not even hot. Chicken fajitas again: ordered some to go for take home to other family members... but nope, not available because apparently now they ran out of fajita vegetables!!! Tacos: since steak fajitas not available, ordered a 3 taco plate instead. Truth be told, it took the kitchen forever to make those and we even saw the server try and tell the kitchen the issues with our order but he got little to no help from them. Bottom line: Supply issues with food in menu, not cool. Temperature issues with food that includes meat, not cool. So understaffed in front of house that server did everything he could and our dinner still was super disappointing, also not cool. We should have gone to 3 Margaritas or Real de Minas honestly. Fish in the chicken fajitas is also super not cool.

A lot of places popped up, but this Mexican restaurant really stood out -- great reviews and the food pictures looked amazing. It's about 13 minutes from the airport, which made it super convenient. From the outside, it looks small, but once you walk in, it's surprisingly spacious. We were seated immediately, and our server was absolutely phenomenal -- so friendly, attentive, and welcoming. For an appetizer, we ordered the queso fundido with chorizo (you can choose corn or flour tortillas). This is one of my favorite dishes to get at any Mexican restaurant if they offer it, and this one did not disappoint. The cheese was perfectly melty and stretchy, and the chorizo had great flavor that paired so well with it. Wrapping that cheesy, savory goodness in a warm tortilla? So good. For my main dish, I ordered the quesabirria -- corn tortillas filled with birria and cheese, fried crispy, and served with consommé for dipping. It was decent, but I will say it didn't have quite as much flavor as I'm used to with quesabirria. Still enjoyable, just could've used a bit more seasoning. The beans were actually delicious and full of flavor, but the rice was a little bland and could've used some salt. Overall, the service was amazing, the restaurant was clean, and even though it was busy, everything came out in a timely manner. The prices were also very reasonable -- definitely not expensive for the quality and portions. I would absolutely come back to try other dishes. With just a little more seasoning in some areas, it would easily be a five-star spot for me!

Reclaimed metal sheet walls, concrete floor, a nice looking bar and good 80s/90s music piping in. The menu offers many taco options, which you purchase a la carte. I took a risk and got the ahi tuna taco, and a steak fajita taco. Both were good - but I was most impressed with the Ahi. It was better than the sushi I have had at a sushi restaurant since moving here to CO. Nice Asian sauce with sesame seeds throughout. Super good. It's light, though. It is in a butter lettuce "taco shell", but honestly I think putting it in a true corn or flour tortilla just would not mesh well. The service was very very pleasant and attentive. We even had to move a couple times because our party number kept changing, and she was as pleasant as can be. I look forward to heading back and trying something else. Co-workers tell me you really can't have a bad taco there, and I think I might challenge that notion and find out for myself! Cheers!
