In 1941, Pete and Cruz Cortez opened a little three-table cafe for early-rising farmers and workers at San Antonio’s Mercado. 80 years later Mi Tierra is a world-famous landmark. Mi Tierra Café is downtown San Antonio, TX's finest Tex-Mex restaurant, Mexican bakery, and source for live Mariachi entertainment. The top factors that restaurant-goers look for when deciding where to eat are location, ambience such as mood, music, and art, a specialty in a particular style of cuisine, good value, and exceptional service. We offer all of this in spades! If you're wondering where to eat tonight, visit our 24 hour restaurant for delicious Tex-Mex food.
