Imagine this: you’re downtown, and it’s
late. Maybe you just watched a Spurs game, or spent an evening on the
Riverwalk, or experienced one of the other great things San Antonio has to
offer. You’re hankering for some good Mexican food, but most restaurants are
closed after midnight. What do you do? You go to Mi Tierra!
This authentic Mexican eatery, open 24/7,
has been a San Antonio institution for over 50 years, and for good reason: the
food and experience are uniquely San Antonian, and result in a fun and
unforgettable meal. Better yet, it is located in the heart of Market Square,
amongst tons of other great Mexican-themed restaurants and stores.
The first thing to catch your eye when
you walk in the door is the large bakery that boasts a wide, delicious
selection of various pastries. Even if you don’t want a full meal, stopping in
for pan dulce and cinnamon-laced hot chocolate is highly enjoyable. The first
thing to hit your ears, however, is the music! There are always musicians strolling
around the large restaurant waiting to play an authentic Mexican ballad for
you. The music, along with the loud, hearty chatter of the many other groups of
friends and families enjoying the experience, creates a bright and exciting atmosphere
that is immensely enjoyable as a part of your night on the town.
There is an expansive selection of
Mexican meals to choose from at Mi Tierra, and the best options are the dinner
plates. They give you a sample of much of what the restaurant has to offer, and
are very filling and satisfying. The Special Mexican Dinner plate gives you a
wide selection of food (a cheese enchilada, a crispy beef taco, chile con queso,
Spanish rice and refried beans, to name a few) for a very reasonable price.
And, as with many other Mexican restaurants in town, endless chips and salsa
are supplied to satisfy your hunger! There is even a bar for those of you old
enough to partake.
If you’re looking for a fun way to cap
off your exciting night out downtown with friends, trying to find a sweet
treat, or just looking to eat a ton of delicious Mexican food, Mi Tierra has it
all in a traditional, always-open package!
