This is a great place to eat outside! The food is great, flavors are spot on. We had tacos on Tuesday night and it was delicious all three tacos I’ve tried. Nice selection of beers. Great chips and salsa, everything fresh and good tasting. Service is fast and professional. Big outdoors seating

6/5/24 Update - Third Time Part of a group visit

So, Mia's Cantina really upped their game, huh? It took me two years to go back, but this time, they blew me away with their service. Went with a big group, and they handled us like pros. The food? Delicious as ever. Plus, the servers were super friendly. Safe to say, I'll be making Mia's a regular spot from now on!

I truly think hard about reviewing a place and always try them at least three times. Well, it is very unfortunate to tell you that this place is the biggest disappointment, after my second try and will NOT go back the third time.

I went there twice, the owner new I was there the first and the second time as I had a conversation with him at an event that happened at Herritage Park that same night (1st time), then the second time I made sure to go and made contact, he for sure remembered me.

Now short and simple. 1st. Time - I waited 40-45 minutes with just water. I invited some friends and we had to walk away, we did not see a sign or intend to be served. Upsetting.

2nd time - Went back with my wife and basically after 30-35 minutes we got some chips and water…… our friend then shows up and we invited her to join us. Well, we ordered two appetizers and that was the end no one ever came back. By then we were already there for an hour and a half. I got up and went to find a register to check out. The manager was never to be found. Poor customer service and management.

Where do I start. I get to Mia’s with my friend’s family. We get in and we order which went fine until the food came. We get the food one plate was messed up and contained ingredients that were not mentioned on the menu. my friend ordered a chorizo cheese quesadilla but had no cheese. I also ordered a quesadilla and get mine and it was missing the sour cream, and pico de galo. He took it back and fixed it which made the service decent. The food was better when it was fixed. Overall, our experience was not the greatest. I forgot to mention that the people working were ok but seemed pissed off all the time.

Mias is great! I've been to both locations, and you can't go wrong. We have two kids and they wheeling location was perfect as it had an outdoor area with turf for them to run around at. It was also a bonus that they offered specials on taco Tuesday!

Food was delicious. We came in with a large party and hour or two before they closed so we had limited options but food was great, service was decent, clean restaurant. Can’t wait to go again.

I’m not sure how this place calls themselves a Mexican restaurant none of the food is authentic has no flavor. Whatsoever comes out looking like a pile of trash came here. Once sent everything back will never be back again. Shocked you guys are still in business.

I have no idea how this place is still open came here last Thursday for dinner and actually sent everything we ordered but the drinks back due to lack of taste. How could food actually have no taste whatsoever meaning this restaurant does something to whatever they cook to take every single bit of flavor and taste out of it, I felt bad sending everything back, but the quality of the food was garbage shocked. This place is still in business. The only thing good were the chips and salsa that was free water drinks were weak and tasted like water down trash.

Tacos were ok. The Mojito was probably the one highlight from here. The services is very inattentive. We were at the entrance waiting for a good couple of minutes without the hostess sitting us down. Most of the time you needed at flag down staff to come to your table instead of them coming to you.

Went here for a quick bite and to watch the bulls game. Ordered tacos which were delicious but slightly salty, and the chips that came out were cold/room temp but good flavor. Elotes were awesome. The service was excellent though, it was completely dead and we were one of 2 tables and sat at the bar. Our server took care of us, put the game on, and was super friendly and attentive.

Going to this restaurant we were very excited about the atmosphere and the food options they offer. When we arrived to have dinner, the place was completely empty except for one table. Normally this would be great for short service times, due to the lack of customers to serve. Not a single employee was seen for over 10 minutes waiting at the door to be sat, after walking in. I called to maybe have someone come to the phone and therefore come to the door to notice us, but it rang the full time right in front of us at the counter. We let ourselves out, with no food and still no sight of an employee in the entire restaurant. Very disappointing.
