My husband and I stopped by for dinner and was totally pleased by the authentic and delicious Mexican food at this hole in the wall restaurant! We ordered a combo plate with two beef tacos with rice and beans and a wet burrito! Both were delicious and very big portions. We would recommend this restaurant if you are hungry and want authentic Mexican food!

We stopped in as we passed through town on a road trip. We could not have been more delighted. The food was absolutely top drawer all the way...the service was particularly good with an incredibly helpful person answering our questions and guiding us in our selections. Let's put it like this...if we lived in Santa Clarita, we would be going to Mi Tierra all the time!!!!!!!

Outstanding affordable Mexican food. I love these places. Small older, probably a converted gas station or convenience store and it is called a market so there are several coolers but for me this is a restaurant not market. So, that's the review angle and the high star rating is well earned. I had the mexican torta which was very good and also got a taco combo, pastor and asada. The latter is where thia place really shines. The tacos were hot, fresh and delicious. Street style and so very tasty. Service was superb. Very helpful and polite. Food came quick and it was very affordable. NOT cheap, affordable. Two meals with tax and tip for 30 bucks. Well worth it. It's probably a better takeout place than dine in bit there are tables and a TV if you are so inclined. Recommended.

I originally stopped in here to look around as it was the location of the "Big Shoe Dance" biker bar from Pee Wee's Big Adventure. I'm not sure if they actually filmed inside, or just used the exteriors. I got some tacos while I was there and they were pretty good, and the service was great. I've been back several times since when I've been in the area. Update: The interior of the restaurant was definitely used in the biker bar scene.

Best carne asada in LA county by far. Service is nice and the atmosphere is very pleasant. The plates are perfect , the food is very well made and not greasy like most mexican restaurants we have gone to. Best of all, food is traditional not tex-mex type of food. Been back numerous times from Arcadia.

I have been waiting 2 years to have these tacos again, as we came here on vacation 2 years ago and finally got to come back and have them, best taco's I have ever had, totally authentic, it's not a fancy restaurant but my opinion this is way better than any fancy restaurant, do yourself a favour and come here, awesome breaded chicken too. Service is awesome too.

We came here after hours of off-roading. Hungry. And this place did not disappoint! The quesadilla I had was fantastic. And their burritos are super sized! The agua frescas were delicious! Especially the Rico Melon! I wish I live nearby and I can come here often. But I don't .
