“I discovered this spot by chance on Instagram and they have been fulfilling all of my fried plantain cravings ever since. The fried plantains, the arepas, and their bowls are incredibly delicious.

I am extremely picky about carne asada and let me say my streak burrito was one of the best I have ever had and my fiancé thoroughly enjoyed his torta – this is our new go-to (since we now have moved to the area) for Mexican and we have recommended to numerous family and friends.” – Yelper Kellie D.

Yelp Insight

“We recently moved from Texas and were on the search for a family-friendly spot for Mexican food. We found Mi Hacienda after checking out parks nearby with the kids. What a hidden gem! It's tucked away and easy to miss but nice and cozy when you walk in and has a nice little patio for the warmer months. My wife and I have tried several dishes over our 10+ visits and have never been disappointed. Favorites include: seafood burrito, dos amigos combo, arroz con camarones, fajitas and hacienda quesadilla.” – Yelper Chris S.

“Looking for fresh, tasty, authentic street tacos, incredible guacamole with hot tortilla chips, bottled sodas, and great service? This is the place and I must say I was pleasantly surprised by the flavors and salsa/sauces. Asada, Carnitas, and Pollo tacos were all great. Very reasonable prices too! Low key atmosphere and highly recommended.” – Yelper Jeremiah C.

“Don't let the luxury gas station attached to this place deter you, it is DELICIOUS. The tacos are authentic and packed with flavor. The pork is marinated for 24 hours and spit roasted (a turning spike) and it was unbelievable. Service was great, too! Lastly, I cannot forget to mention the salsa/sauce bar! Uhm, hello jalapeño ranch and every salsa topping my heart desires. I highly recommend checking this place out for a quick bite to eat!” – Yelper Rachel M.
