Mi Tierra Mexican Kitchen

I had tried the Mi Tierra Cocina Mexicana in Glenpool in 2023. It was not impressive. Same name and owner, but not always the same results…… I have found that with these local chain restaurants, different locations with different managers and different cooks can mean vastly different dining experiences. With that said I’m trying the newest location on Yale. Greeted and seated promptly. Good chips, fair salsas quickly arrived at the table. Ask for the hot stuff. You also get the restaurant’s signature nasty white dipping sauce. Or salad dressing or whatever it is? Disgusting. Trying something very different for me, El Guapo. (no, not me, the meal is called El Guapo) El Guapo is two thin chicken breasts seasoned, then lightly fried to form a delicate crisp finish on the edges. Fresh spinach decorated the chicken and all that covered with queso. The menu offers a choice of charro or black beans, but the waiter did not offer either. The meal was delivered with refried beans and rice. An excellent meal this was. Simple, flavorful, a five-star plate of food. I found it, a meal that would bring me back to Mi Tierra Mexican Kitchen. My wife had the Fiesta Bowl with the chicken. A large bowl of fresh lettuce, black beans, pico, avocado slices and healthy a drizzle of crema. The chicken was a substantial serving of the same grilled chicken as my meal, only chopped. A tasty lunch special. Nicely decorated inside, modern décor, booths and tables available. The service was very good. It was midafternoon. Lunch time for a group of Mexican electricians that rolled up in their white vans. A working man’s approved restaurant. I can go 5 stars…..excluding the white sauce. If you are looking for other Mexican restaurants in the area, check out my reviews in my collection "Jalapeno Highway" by Spike S. on Yelp. I've probably been there.

Food was bland and the waiter was horrible! Got our orders wrong as well as the margarita. Then he tried to charge us extra for his screw up. Rafael you made our experience horrible.

The fresh salsa is pleasantly spicy and piques your taste buds. The grilled street tacos are the go to with fresh cilantro, chopped onions, tomatillo salsa with carnitas with a grilled green onion and jalapeño that is generously piled on at a reasonable price. Tons of authentic flavor without over salting like most Mexican restaurants!

I really enjoyed the chips/salsa. Chips were hot, fresh and not greasy. Additionally, the chicken fajitas were seasoned and tasty. Server was attentive and friendly. My only real disappointment was that I ordered a Sangria Swirl and it was not at all frozen, as advertised. I sent it back twice...to no avail. Overall, I would recommend. Give it a try - the lunch prices are very reasonable.
