I'm not sure what it is about Mexican restaurants in Cincinnati but they nearly all have the same menu (minus the wonderful La Mexican and Taqueria). But in 2010, I was a lover of Mexican food. Not sure now that I have given up cheese - but I'm sure I'll figure that out.
Last month, the coworkers and I headed to Mi Tierra in Crescent Springs. After the debacle that was Montoyas, I've been on a quest to find not-awful Mexican near Buttermilk Pike. I found Mi Tierra when I ran to Wal-Mart for some Christmas shopping and decided we had to give it a whirl.
It's in a strip mall next to something Chinese - Hot Wok I think - we'll have to go there next. No cheese in Chinese!
Salsa & chips - fine - standard.
I got the Chicken Nachos and they were pretty good.
Couple other people's plates - looks pretty standard - I know...
Why Should You Go? Can you tell how uninspired I am? The only ! was given to a comment about cheese. It's fine - if you like El Rancho Grande or the like - you'll like it. For what we were looking for - it was good. It's non-offensive and everybody left with full bellies.
Mexican food with no cheese? That is just brutal. I envy your discipline.
ReplyDeleteThat kinda sorta looks like the ubiquitous white cheese dip glistening all over your chicken nachos. But I could be wrong.
ReplyDeleteyes - there was cheese dip on this. i ate this in 2010! i swear!
ReplyDeleteHot Wok is actually really good. The owners are as sweet as can be, and the Bang-Bang Shrimp is one of my favorites. I used to go there all the time when I lived in Ft. Wright.
