Worst California Burrito I've ever had. This was hyped up for me for the longest time and finally was able to try it. The fries were too cooked, I'm talking chip crispy and the carne asada was burnt, equally as crispy. This burrito was super crunchy and I've never had that before. I'm sure it's not the standard but my god the cooks should've known to use some new fries and use new meat. Happy that the burrito included both guacamole and sour cream but it wasn't enough to save a burnt burrito. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Service was good and a lot of spacious seating[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

LOVE THIS PLACE, I go atleast once a week, hand mande tortillas , clean location and great staff. All of it is good, BTW this was not one session of photos. This is a few times that I went. I eat a lot but not that much !! read more

Thank you so much I'm going straight down there and getting me the best barbacoa burrito in town thank you your the best

I was excited to try this place again, hoping for a nostalgic taste of how it used to be back in the day in National City. Unfortunately, it didn't live up to the memory. [[HIGHLIGHT]]When I walked in, most of the tables still had food debris on them not just crumbs, but full-on leftover mess.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I tried to be understanding; maybe they were short-staffed or the previous diners had just left. No big deal, so I went up to order. That's when things got more uncomfortable. The cashier was eating at the register, mid-bite, with food all over her mouth while trying to take my order. It felt unprofessional and honestly off-putting, but I still went ahead and ordered a beef taco and a side of beans. The food was a letdown. The taco was overcooked to the point of being burnt and hard like biting into a shell made of charcoal. The beans tasted more like chorizo grease than actual beans, and lacked any real flavor. This spot used to be known for bold, comforting flavors. Sadly, that taste has completely declined. I won't be returning any time soon. read more

Ordered 3 California burritos to go, spent a ridiculous $58, asked if they came with sour cream and cheese and they said yes. Got home and none of them had sour cream or cheese, the Carne Asada wasn't seasoned, there were WAY to many potatoes and only a tiny bit of guacamole. If youre gonna charge over $15 for a burrito, it shouldn't be this bad. read more

Great service. A range of great meats prepared the authentic way as you would have in different states in Mexico. Homemade tortillas that are thick and perfectly textured for plates or tacos. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Highly recommend for flavor my ears and a relaxing atmosphere.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

I've tried this place several times and the food was very bland. [[HIGHLIGHT]]On top of it, the restaurant is very dirty[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] and the staff was rude. Will not be returning read more

Wow, I was pleasantly surprised when I saw Birria de Chivo (Goat stew) on the daily menu. I had to give it a shot, and that dish was excellent. It was warm and a bit spicy, but not too much, with plenty of meat and freshly made tortillas. Not many places have good birria in San Diego, but it is definitely place worth eating in. read more

The food here is dolid. But they do have a cook who is relatively new and all that I can say is that it isn't as good with her. I believe they lost one of there good cooks when they went through transition of moving to their new location. That being said it is a solid place with decent service. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Wonderful place![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Very kind people. The food was very good. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The looks very clean a neat ![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] i would recommend to anyone overall very wonderful place to come and enjoy ! read more

Disappointed. Called in an order this morning for 2 steak and egg burritos, 1 chorizo burrito, 1 horchata, and 1 Jamaica. Got home and opened 2 burritos and they were both bacon,ham, and egg burritos. They gave us the wrong order. Luckily, they charged us for that and didn't over charge us. Jamaica wasn't very sweet either. Used to go here for their breakfast burritos and now will probably never go back. It's probably good they are moving. read more

Very casual and affordable. Plenty of seating. Good food and the ladies are always cheerful. I keep going back! read more

Really sad to say goodbye to Mi Tierra. What used to be our favorite local place for Mexican food has gone downhill. My husband enjoyed his food but my shrimp burrito was mostly tortilla. I got four bites into my burrito before I hit a bite with shrimp in it. Then had several more bites of just tortilla in there while eating. Really disappointed to see their quality/portions go down so much. I think probably 40% of the burrito was just tortilla with cheese. Although we have gone quite a few times after noticing wrong orders/worsened quality, I think this is officially the last time we go. read more

Wow where to start... As a born and raised San Diegan I have done my fair share of taco shop stops. This taco shop is the best in National City. I've been on the hunt for the best in my new neighborhood and have found it. Top faves: *anything with carne asada will be delicous. Why is that? Meat is grilled they don't do short cuts. It is also tender and flavorful. *GORDITAS are the best I've eaten. Seriously. *corn cake is soooooooo gooood! Soooo moist and again the best I've eaten. Best choice for dessert! read more

La peor experiencia el domingo 22 de septiembre acudimos a este asqueroso lugar. Mi novio pidió super roll tacos y al estar comiendo sufrió una terrible lesión con un pica durante. Se le notifique al cajero el cual negó al manager y solo oculto al cocinero un tal jesus. Llevo desde entonces tratando de localizar al manager y se hagan cargo. Al parecer corrieron. Al cocinero pero nunca ab dado una disculpa. Además el lugar sumamente sucio y su cajero muy distraído. No deberían estas personas trabajando en alumentos read more

Great authentic tacos loaded with grilled meat, served piping hot. The flower tortilla was airy, the toppings fresh and the sauces were traditional Mexican. This place is pretty much a hole in the wall, but don't these places so often have some of the best most authentic food? read more

Years of great service have gone down the drain! The one guy that was so welcoming is gone from this site. Now they don't answer the phone , and the gal there isn't pleasant at all. I even asked her if there was small order of sopez, she simply said "NO," rather than say let me check (if she is new as lady in the back told me), they will most certainly lose business with the gal in the front now!! The restaurant wasn't even that full, for them not to be answering the phone, ready to take phone orders. Sorry, but bad review . read more

If you like the taste of homemade authentic Mexican food with hand made corn tortillas this is your spot. Prices are acceptable, taste is delicious. My favorite is the Chile verde plate. read more

I love this authentic Jalisco style MexiCAN restaurant. The heat levels of the salsa are custom made to order and let me tell you the super spicy request is indeed SUPER SPICY. They even carry glass bottled MexiCAN soda, which pairs well with the burst of authentic flavors of the food. I've never been disappointed with their breakfast or dinner dishes. I highly recommend the tacos and the chilaquiles. The burritos are also HUGE. Their menudo soup is also very enticing. They even have this delicious corn bread dessert that seals the meal. I also love how early and late they stay open. If you're looking for a sit down family style MexiCAN meal trust Mi Tierra!!! read more

Came in for the first time because of the gorditas. Not good at all. No flavor and don't come with rice and beans. Order the 2 gorditas and the 2 sopes special. The sopes was just so thick and the souse it seamed it was caned sauce not made the tradicional way. The hot sausage they give you on the side seamed watered down and no flavor. Did not like it at all. Do not go to this place not worth it. Don't spend your money here better places for your money and give them thumbs down. read more

We came in about 30 mins before closing, but the woman working the front was still super cheerful and welcoming still! The place was very nicely cleaned and furnished, and service was fast and easy! We ordered the Carne Asada Fries, Carne Asada Tacos, some Horchata, and Chicken Enchiladas. All of them tasted amazing! Great stop with excellent service! read more

Ummmmm so i just went to try this place out due to the semi good reviews, and it wasn't that great! I ordered a carne asada burrito with NO beans, and the meat was burnt and very hard to chew and to top it off it was very DRY. There was nothing good about it. The shop was crowded with people, so I don't know maybe i just ordered the wrong thing! But it was terrible! I won't be back here for sure!! First time and last time! read more

Stumbled into this place as a substitute to Tacos El G. When you have Taco in your name I assume you make tacos well. Any who ordered cabeza and adobada tacos. Cabeza was ok but the adobada was terrible. I was worried when they took the meat out of the fridge and microwaved it. Then when it got to my plate the type of pork was not a good cut. Very low quality of meat and still had a lot of cartilage in it. The only reason I gave 2 stars was because the handmade tortillas. Otherwise it would just be 1 star. The salsa is not that good and all these people writing these reviews need to expand their pallets because this place ain't it. read more

10/10 for the plain quesadilla. I obviously did not know how a real quesadilla was supposed to taste like cause the ones I have had previously all suck. The cheese on this was amazing and the tortilla so fresh. Moving to San Diego has changed my life lol read more

I was driving by and saw they had gorditas so I stopped. I ordered at 12:48pm. I ordered 2 Quesadillas and 5 gorditas. It was 1:27pm and still didnt have my food. I cancelled and left. read more

National City. Highland ave. I've been going here for years. One of the best taco shops in San Diego. Great taste & good size food for your money. Owner is a nice guy & hard worker. The cooks are awesome. Tortillas are made fresh. Lots of parking in front & the side. If you're ever in the area. This place is a must try. Highly recommended. read more

Well I waited for my food for way longer than they said it would take. Food was mediocre. Service was poor.

It is something about hole in the wall taco shops that causes me to fall in love....like I knew from the second I walked in, I was exactly where I was meant to be. Now i could see myself coming here every week...and I literally have lol. It's a bit of a drive from the crib but i still be doing it lol. It's basically like you're going to your tia's or abuelita's home for some good ol' authentic Mexican cooking!!! Basically they have so many bomb things to chose from plus vegetarian options and they serve breakfast PLUS they have/make my tacos de papa (YAAAAASSSSSSSS LAWWWWD) Tip: pay in cash! They prefer it and there's almost a $1 charge to use a card 2nd tip: they have conchas and pan de elote *licks lips* damn doesn't get much better than that.... 3rd tip: . The man who works the register is so friendly and that makes a big impact - like super Chill dude! read more

This review is for their scrumptious breakfast burrito: a breakfast burrito that is not on the menu, but is simply was the Super Breakfast Burrito with bacon, ham, egg, and cheese but without the fries and added pico de gallo for about $6. if I remember correctly. The burrito was of a good size and came with a good quality buttery warm flour tortilla. The eggs were decently scrambled. I say "decent" because they could of scrambled the white and yellows better. On a good note, they tasted great and were seasoned well. The ham that was intermixed with them was tender and savory. I was very glad I included the pico because it was freshly prepared and tasted great. I would of liked a little more Serrano peppers in it though, but that's just the way I roll. They use a grated white cheese and they put a lot of it in the burrito. I'm not sure what brand it was, but I a pretty sure it tasted like Monterrey Jack cheese. I am not complaining because it tasted very good. The red salsa I had from the salsa bar was good. It had a mild hear and good flavor. They lady who made and brought out my burrito was very nice. I enjoyed a very good cup of house coffee with my meal. It was mild and smooth and only cost $1 and some change. The place reminds me of and mom and pop place I would find on a busy commercial street in Mexico with home style cooking with out that fancy flare. read more

Their mulitas and Chile verde de puerto were really good, delish. The puerco was tender and the flour tortillas are huge. I just wished the Chile verde combo had more rice .

Still rolling on my.mole.kick, I found this cool little spot that was pretty good. Very friendly staff. Nice and open seating. Parking was easy. Prices are good and for the one plate I ordered I liked it. The mole wasn't the usual sweet style I have been getting. It is a little.lighter color and no prominant chocolate taste. I tasted more of the chilies and spices. It was sort of thing but combined with the delicious, tender and seasoned chicken, it was pretty good. Beans and rice are the best I have had in awhile. Definitely a home cooked meal taste. I will be back to try more. $10 for the mole plate. read more

i never get tired of this place...there is always something that i want to try. It's across the street from tacos el gordo and i'm not even tempted to go there (i love tacos el gordo)...but this is just so much better. although i generally prefer to stay and eat here...i only have a 30 minute lunch... i have it down that if i order my food as i'm walking to my car...it is ready for me to pay/pickup when i walk in the door at the restaurant... i hurry back to work and usually have 10 minutes to still eat! ok...i eat a little bit and save the rest for my next break. love it!!! service A+ quality A+ atmosphere..nothing fancy..but smells good and clean so A+ read more

One sauce ? Horrible service. Not thinking about the customer experience. Why would I have to ask you for more sauce? I should be getting it once I get my order and especially if i order more then one item. Places like this don't work. Don't recommend it and won't be coming back. I even tipped witch makes it even worse. Places like that don't work. Watch you get like 5 salsas and all of them water down. Services is like a 1. Horrible I shouldn't be asking for more salsa. read more

Super good, best in NC. A lot of places make there salsas bad but this place gots it all read more

Mi Tierra Super Taco - Red Chilaquiles Plate Combo - Mexican Near Me - San Diego, California

This place doesn't look like my co when you walk but it is not much because the goat tacos. They are pretty good but the meat be dry and the salsa be too spicy. The birria tacos are good do not get me wrong but in comparison to other nearby places uhm I'm going to have to say in my birria adventures this place ranks last in my birria adventure. But it is only the second time I have had birria so they are second place. The horchata be good too. In times of spiciness it be a good drink to have. Thank you for tuning in for my yelp birria review Edit this is now third in my birria taco list read more

Nope nope nope went a few times food is not what it used to be at all . The price went up but the taste did not

First time try next to school on lunch. Walked in: clean average taco shop decor. Menu is big you can find pretty much all your Mexican staples in one place. I went for chilaquiles with two over easy eggs and only beans no rice. It came out 4 mins after I ordered; not joking!! It was amazing, because we are always on a time crunch for lunch. My girlfriends got California burritos .. I mean all I can really do is post before and after pictures and it pretty much explains how de-freakin-licious it was!! read more
