Asi Es My Tierra

We were not welcome in this restaurant. The host claimed they were full but there were obviously open tables. On a side note… a wonderful family offered us their table and said they had good food. They obviously need a much more welcoming host, that wouldn’t pass up a five top of hungry diners.

Just a basic mexican food place, nothing special. Food is bland needs more seasoning. Maby they tone it down for the winter visitors. Or maby people really do not know what mexican food should taste like. If you want bomb mexican food in the east mesa side go to dos los gringos or Elviras.

This place is a great hole in the wall Mexican restaurant. The salsa and chips were delicious, and our meals were good. We got tamales which I am very picky about and was really good. The masa is the key and the shredded beef inside was moist. Enchiladas were yummy with the cheese melted (I seem to never get melted cheese).
The wait staff was attentive and friendly.
This was our first time here and found on Unilocal,glad we came it. This was worth the trip. So glad we found It.

First visit, pass on the margaritas just get a beer. Food was really good. Chicken fajitas, steak picado, ground beef enchiladas and ground beef burrito. Everything was delicious.

We have been coming south for 3 years now and go almost once a week. Great people waiting on you and super food.

If you haven’t been here then I don’t know what you are doing with life. Looking for an authentic Mexican restaurant? Well here it is. This place hits the spot. From the atmosphere, to the friendly waiters, and to the awesome food. My favorite food there for me would be the shrimp cocktail. No other restaurant that I’ve been to can beat the price and flavor. Jumbo shrimp! Around 6 dollars for a regular size. The civeche is also amazing. Around 2 bucks for 1. This is by far the best Mexican restaurant I’ve been to. I’m from California so every time I visit Arizona I always stop by. Im serious everyone check it out. You won’t be disappointed!
Ignore the people leaving bad reviews. What I don’t understand is that they don’t understand why it has 4 stars. Obviously because people love it. Common sense! :)

Really enjoyed this place on my first visit. Great chips and salsa, chicken enchiladas and tacos. Mother in law loved her taco salad and husband his chimichanga. Interior needs an uplift/​clean, but a great find for the price. We’ll definitely be returning! Love these authentic little holes in the wall.

Wow I don’t get these reviews. We tried this place because of the 4 star reviews — it is far from it. The server was nice, food was just alright, the place was a dingy dive. I hate giving poor reviews but they should be real, accurate and helpful. I really wish the place was a 4 star :(

Great place to eat. I enjoyed the authentic Mexican food. Clean and courteous service. Food was delicious.

Good food and service
Had rellenos shredded
Beef tacos and a cheese enchalda. All were great! Remindes us of Rocky point…

Delicious! I asked for the hottest salsa, they brought the most perfect, hot, smoky, dark red salsa. The enchiladas were great too. And the horchata was on point! All for $ 10. Eat here!

Yummy! Very happy with this place. Location is kind of hidden among other business but once you find this place you’ll be very happy.

Chips and salsa was good… bummer they ran out of chips. the three item combo is best value in the valley. possibly the state. can’t find this quality of food west of the new mexico border. The relleno rivaled some of the better ones I have had at home. The taco was filled with genuine shredded roast that was tender and hot. A tiny point off for the premade taco shell. The enchilada sauce lacked some zip but was hot and filled with cheese and onion.
The chimichangas were loaded with quality shredded beef or delicious chicken either was great. the green sauce on the chicken was tomatillo based. I would opt out of the sauce and let the gucamole shine.
This place is a ridiculous value… I will be back sooner than later.

This is the best Mexican food I’ve ever had in Arizona. The portions are reasonable and so are the prices. The food is fresh and they don’t overdo it on sauce and cheese. My kids loved it. Looks sketchy from the street and the décor is outdated but I would definitely come here again.

Wow, this place is a real find! Without Unilocal We never would have found this little gem. It’s in a lower end strip mall, but don’t let that fool you, the food is excellent, the staff are attentive and friendly, and the value can’t be beat. I am always on the search for great chili relleno and I found them the day we stopped in here for lunch. We are snowbirds in the area and have been back to this «treasure» many times.

Worth a try
Thought I didn’t absolutely love it, tastes vary and — like most Mexican restaurants — Asi Es My Tierra is worth a try. Their food is good and prices are reasonable. The service was excellent.

My favorite new Mexican food place! I’m not one for spicy food, but I love good flavor and this place did not disappoint. Salsa and hot chips were delivered with our menus. I got a chicken chimi. It came with beans, rice, guacamole, lettuce, and sour cream (red or green sauce if you want it). Portions were great. Food was hot and fresh. Service was quick. This places appears to be family owned and the people were friendly.

Beats anything in AJ. Nice, hidden away. Mexican comfort food. Great food when ya just wanna eat cause your hungry food. Nothing fancy, but yummy good. Started out slow with the three item combo plate for $ 7.50. How good could it be? It was delightful. Got the chili relleno, taco and tamale. Just like mama would have made if she was a little Mexican lady. The young man that served us was very polite and our food arrived in a timely manner.
Now let’s talk margaritas… these are no wimpy margaritas. These will put hair on your chest. We will be back and we are bringing relatives. Great find.

Wow. What a find. We had dinner here last night and it was fantastic. The food was expertly seasoned and flavorful, the service was spot on, and the prices were (quite frankly) probably too low for the value received.
I can’t wait to go back as I have already identified several other dishes I need to try.
They have everything from breakfast to dinner — and it all looks good.

OMG! This place is absolutely awesome! Everything we ordered was simply outstanding and the service was excellent! We had queso with chorizo for an appetizer and then Enchilada Oaxaca and Carne Asada for entrees. Everything was perfectly seasoned and exceeded our expectations. The mole sauce on the Enchilada Oaxaca was the best I can remember. The menu is pleasantly extensive, but our order tonight was so good it’ll be hard not to repeat :) The portions were ample and the prices about half what they should probably be.
My girlfriend and I eat out quite a bit ., and we can never remember a meal out in which we both took our first bite and laughed because it was so good. We will certainly be coming back sooner rather than later. My advice is to visit this place as soon as possible… the experience was exactly the authentic local Mexican place we’ve been looking for… this place is food porn.
