I love a restaurant that's consistent with their food and service. I always order to go, but I'm in and out within 10-15mins. My go to are the empanadas. See my previous review, not much has changed besides the price of course, but that's everything. Gratuities are added to the bill on to go orders, so just be aware of that. You can tip additional if you'd like. Visit if you haven't been! read more

Mi Tierra Restaurante - Empanadas (5 to an order) - Mexican Near Me - Memphis, Tennessee

Funny how now Yelp asks when you put two stars "what can be improved?" Let's start with the reserved parking spots that say you will be towed. We assumed those were for paying customers but NOPE. They're for the owners. But it doesn't even say that. Reserved parking is usually for the paying customers keeping the business afloat. We had a waitress come out, who we can tell has had to say this a lot, come ask us to move our car. I can tell she's tired of having to tell people not to park there. I've never seen a restaurant have parking reserved for the owners at the front like that. I didn't know this was a corporate headquarters. So now for the food. Walking in I would've thought it would be very authentic. Turns out a lot of the food is very Tex mex. Only a few items are Columbian even though this is a Columbian restaurant. I ordered chicken and rice and cheese dip and it tasted like any other non authentic Tex mex place. You can tell it all comes from the same food supplier. But it was more expensive than other places. The owners here include the gratuity on the bill. Usually this is done for a large table. It's also only 15% when usually it would be 18%. We verified this is done by the owners. We didn't see anywhere say this we just happened to notice when the bill was more expensive than we expected and were looking over it. Our waitress did a good job so there was no way we were only going to leave 15% so I'm glad we realized it. The waitress and the decorations are what kept this from being a 1 star. This place looks like it would be a fun hangout place especially at night and weekends. It looked like they had karaoke and a dance floor. read more

Mi Tierra is always excellent. They are open 24 hrs a day and it's always great food with an authentic Mexico flair. Nice servers. Veronica Garcia from Jalisco Mexico was very nice, very sweet. Really cool pictures and murals on all the walls. You need to try this place. Highly recommend. read more

My wife and I went with our daughter and son-in-law in March. We had various plates and everyone loved their food (I irresponsibly threw our receipt out before getting around to this review so can't adequately describe). I was having difficulty eating at that time (medical condition) so couldn't get anything spicy or more adventurous, but I do recall my plate (see picture) had a fried egg, small steak, fried pork, plantains, beans, avocado and of course rice. I didn't see oxtail but love it, heard they had it and would like to go back for it (or one of their exotic dishes like the whole fish I saw). The prices were fair. The only drawback was 'part' of the service - we expected them to check on us a little more than they did so we ended up waiting for certain items, and it was pretty hard to find someone who could give us change for a tip (mostly due to not having adequate English speakers). read more

Mi Tierra Restaurante - Mexican Near Me - Memphis, Tennessee

I came here with my columbian friend to pick up food, I forgot what she ordered but it was an oxtail soup, sausage, rice, fried egg, plantains, and red beans. All of the food was full of flavor and unique. We had a margarita which was huge and also really good. All of the food was delicious so we will for sure be back. The service was really good, quick and prompt. I like how the place is decorated, it's tropical themed and feels like you're not in Memphis anymore lol. read more

Service was horrible , was ignored the whole time besides order being taken and food being brought out. Took an hour to get my check after I finished eating , service felt very discriminatory. As far as the food goes food was pretty good but because of service I will not be returning and 18% tip is added on automatically so server is less inclined to offer good service. Water cost me $3.99 , this place is greedy. read more

Mi Tierra Restaurante - Mexican Near Me - Memphis, Tennessee

We just left Mi Tierra. We intended to have a late dinner, then stay for some dancing. Yes, we have white skin, but my husband is from Peru, speaks Spanish as his first language, and is an excellent Latin dancer. The service was absolutely abysmal! I had to go the bar to get a glass of water, then was looked at in disdain when I asked for my husband's also to be refilled. The woman delivered our drinks and other than coming to our table with the water (because the bartender told her to), she never approached our table again until it was time to present the check. The drink menu says to ask for pricing before ordering alcohol. I did, and she wasn't sure of the price. We really intended to stay to dance, but she just brought us the check after we finished eating, never asked how everything was, did we want another drink, nothing. It's a good thing gratuity was automatically added to our (rather expensive) check ( this is an absolute pet peeve of mine) or she would not have gotten a dime. I would never, ever return to this place, where I believe we were treated with racial discrimination. read more

If i could put zero stars i would. I along with 3 of my friends came tonight and a security stopped pointed at me and said the owner looked at the camera TONIGHT at 1:18 am and said i looked tipsy and wouldn't let me in. TERRIBLE SERVICE! read more

Pedí 3 tacos de Carne Asada para llevar. mi plato estaba lleno y la asada era genial. Mis camareras me mantuvieron entretenido e informado mientras esperaba mi comida. Doy un 4 estrellas SOLAMENTE porque daré un 5 estrellas cuando haya pedido una comida completa y coma en el restaurante. Con todo, vale la pena su tiempo y esfuerzo. ¡Parar en! I ordered 3 Carne Asada tacos to go. my plate was full and the asada was great. My waitresses kept me entertained and informed while I waited for my food. I am giving a 4 star ONLY because I will give a 5 star when I have ordered a full meal and eat at the restaurant. All in all, it is worth your time and effort. Stop in read more

I ordered to go food this evening and the food all tasted old as if it was all the leftovers from earlier. It's very unfortunate as this is one of my number one spots to go to. It doesn't matter if you order to go or to eat in the restaurant the food should always be the same. Literally the food I got should have not been sold and thrown on the trash. Food at this restaurant is not cheap. Shame on them because I won't be back. One person can tell millions. This place has gone down hill. So sad it's not about quality any more it's just out to make the money. They certainly forgot the customers! read more

The food and drinks are good. I love their pina coladas. On my first visit, my sister and I sat at a small table with 4 chairs and we were told we couldn't sit there because it was a four person table but as we looked around, there were no tables with just two chairs. Other parties of two were at 4 person tables but we were told they were waiting on people (who actually never arrived). We asked our waitress to just find us another seat but she got lost somewhere and never came back so we ended up at the bar. The bartender was really sweet and attentive so I'll probably just stick to sitting at the bar when I go. read more

Mi Tierra Restaurante - Piña colada - Mexican Near Me - Memphis, Tennessee

The decor is amazing at Mi Tierra. The food is delicious. This is Colombian cuisine. Arepas, plantains, empanadas and other Colombian dishes are what you will find here. They also have your typical Mexican dishes also. We will definitely be back. read more

Mi Tierra Restaurante - Panoramic of the inside, opposite the bar. - Mexican Near Me - Memphis, Tennessee

Excellent food and service. Festive feel to restaurant. Have gone there multiple times with family and we were all happy. Kid friendly

Food was great. Customer service SUCKS. I couldn't buy 3 empanadas, server said is a minimum of 5 while in the menu didn't mentioned such thing. We get our food and not ONE TIME did they come to check on us. We didn't get asked for more drinks, nothing. We waited like 25 minutes for the waitress to come. Beware if you come to eat here if you're on a time sensitive schedule. They automatically charge gratuity with their shitty service read more

Mi Tierra Restaurante - a view of the outside of the restaurant - Mexican Near Me - Memphis, Tennessee

This place lacks hospitality I ordered the "Bandeja" plate with a piña colada and was charged $37 for those two items I checked the receipt because the price was OUTRAGEOUS. 15% was already added which is OK but if you are going to to charge people gratuity make sure you check on them and are welcoming! On top of that I gave her $40 and she kept my $3 dollars even though she already charged me gratuity. Last time coming here if you want better service and cheaper prices head to "El sabor Latino" read more

Great food and service. Great job on reworking of the entire seating area. Love the employees

Great Columbian food! Good service! We highly recommend you try it out. It's a hidden gem.

Food is always hot and fresh. It's never really crowded here so it's not a long wait. However they are open at certain times doing the week. The waitress always make sure that you are ok and taken care of. It's not a Mexican restaurant it's Colombian. read more

This is a little known and very underrated Mexican restaurant near Bartlett that I tried on a whim the other day. Mostly because the exterior caught my eye. It's bright yellow with a little porch out front and nice, colorful signage. Besides, if you read my reviews, you know how much I love Mexican Food. I am always ready to try a new place. And Mi Tierra did not disappoint. The food was great!!! Very authentic and very fresh - two important keys for good Mexican food. I had chips and salsa and chicken enchiladas with rice. Everything was delicious and the prices were great - really inexpensive. My entire meal, with drink, was less than than $9. My server was friendly and courteous and the food was brought out very quickly. Loved this place! Oh...and the inside was just as bright and cheerful as the outside. read more

Mi Tierra Restaurante - Mexican Near Me - Memphis, Tennessee

Meh shmeh. Chips were cold and not fresh. Salsa pretty standard. Flautas weren't very satisfying. However, the horchata was good! I had been wanting to try this place for some time. After canceling a date because the guy turned out to be a total creepy perv, I was all dressed up and hungry, so I decided to go here. They're a Columbian restaurant but have a menu of select Mexican items. I was kind of sad they didn't have any taco combos or anything...that's usually my go-to thing. I ordered chicken flautas and the description sounded good: stuffed tortillas, deep fried, and served with lettuce, sour cream, and tomato. It was basically served with lettuce if you look at the photo. Luckily I had salsa to add to it. It didn't set well with my tummy but I don't eat a lot of fried food so that may be why. When I first got there, I waited quite a while for anyone to see me. But the waitress was really friendly. I was the only person there and this place could easily seat 75+ people. The bar is cute and I like the decor, but maybe their biggest issue is location? If I didn't see it on yelp, I never would have seen it behind the Taco Bell and Sharks giant illuminated signs. read more

horrible el servicio, nunca estuvieron pendientes de la mesa, ni tuvieron la amabilidad de preguntar si todo estaba bien, mala atención al cliente, solo éramos dos y nos pusieron 20 dólares de propina sin consentimiento alguno, los dejaríamos por nuestros mismo méritos pero a gente que si se la gana, no a gente que atiende por atender y se quedan sentados hablando con los otros compañeros de trabajo mientras la mesa necesita algun servicio de la alimentación del restaurante, la llamaba y se hacía la que no veía read more

I found this to be a great Columbian restaurant. mainly for Colombians but people were very friendly. The environment was a recreation of a Colombian Beach Restaurant. And the food was delicious. read more

One of the only places I've found for Columbia cuisine and it is delicious!! Go here for the Columbian food and not the typical Tex mex you find on every corner in Memphis!! read more

The music was the one bad thing shit was fucking loud the whole time couldn't hear the next person sitting to you terrible service server had attitude we asked for the music to be turned down they refused like literally concert loud for a tiny place my gf has a brain disorder that causes headaches with loud noises she had to leave Bc of it. Had to ask for chips 5-6 times after 30 min they brought it. Food was also trash stale old rice. read more

Flavor was outstanding and serve great. The portions sizes of food was prefect. Love the idea of being able to try different types of food.

I stopped in here on my way home I had been wanting to try it for sometime. The service was very friendly, it was very clean and the food was delicious. Very fresh and not overcooked. I paid under $10 for my meal and drink. I will definitely come back and recommend this place. read more

Skip the Tex/Mex and try the more traditional items. The bandeja paisa, or their smaller version of it. They are open for lunch these days and they run good lunch specials. The lunch time crowds are small at the moment so you can get in and out quickly. Definitely give it a try. read more

Came in here like 2:30 for lunch and no one was up there so we waited... The door beeped to let them know we were there, we said hello multiple times, knocked, multiple things to let them know we were there and no one ever came... We could hear people talking in the back but no one came. Finally we just left but we'd heard good things and it looked nice inside so decided to give it one last try, same exact thing happened and could still hear people talking so we just actually left this time. Not sure if the food is good or not but the service is terrible. Wish I could have tried it. read more

I have been to Mi Tierra a few times and had a good time. So far I have only been here on Friday or Saturday nights to dance and have a couple of drinks. The ambience is really chill. They play a lot of Bachata, Reggaeton, and some Norteno music. The dance floor is small and it can get crowded at times, but only on busy nights. Food wise, I have only tried their Picada Completa and it is delicious. It looks like a huge appetizer plate filled with plantains, empanadas, arepas with cheese, cassava, pork rinds, salsa, pork tenderloin, tomatoes, and short ribs. This plate is good to share with 2 to 3 people. The staff is friendly, the bathrooms are clean, and the prices aren't bad either. read more

Food was extremely bland and uninspired... even the salsa needed to have some hot sauce added to it, just to let you know you were eating salsa. The decor is... well it's cluttered, and I will leave it at that. The music was way too loud, but other than that the place was surprisingly still open for business. I was the only customer on a Monday evening at 7pm... not really a good sign. read more

The server seemed to not know how to take an order. Despite ordering appetizers and telling her it's what we wanted to start with, all the food came out at the same time. Did not check on us once during the meal. The meals weren't great. The shredded beef tostones were clearly microwaved as they had hot and cold spots throughout. You can taste it was reheated. The tamal was way too watery. As a Colombian in the US I love to try my native cuisine when traveling to different cities. This by far was the most disappointing read more

Love this place. Emprendas are a must. Been here twice. Everything has been amazing. I've only had the Colombian food. Incredible. Best Colombian food in Memphis area. read more

Not the best colombian food but I would recommend to try bandeja paisa. However I was disappointed with chuleta empanada
