Tierra Caliente Mexican Grill — Restaurant in Childersburg

Used to love this place, food, staff. Ate there 2 times each week. Then started going less due to work hours and location. I have again recently and visits were so very disappointing. Could not get an answer when trying to call in a pic up order. Went and ordered in person. Girl told me they don't answer phone. When I got home two items I ordered and paid for were not in my bag. I live too far away to "run" back and no need to call because they do not answer phone. Anyway, a group of us decided to meet there this past Friday evening for my brother's birthday. Awful! Bad service. Food portions looked like appetizer portions and the price was crazy high for what we were served. Mine and a couple others were cold. There were 6 adults and 2 children and no one in the group was happy. None of us will ever go back. I didn't dare mention it to the staff because honestly, I don't think they care. I hope the new place will not be as disappointing. I will gladly drive to avoid going...

Me and my husband and son decided to give this place a try they don’t have booths and the food is WAY overpriced! I ordered the fajita nachos $16.95 and the waitress asked me if I wanted to add peppers and onions and I told her well of course because it comes with a fajita and she says no it’s a up charge…. Then I order a very small side of guacamole and the menu said it was $1.95 but she told me it was $2.95 for a tiny cup of it! It wasn’t even blended very well! The salsa tasted like straight tomato paste with pepper juice added into it it wasn’t good. My husband ordered the fajita taco salad they hardly gave him any food mostly just black beans. They also kept sitting stuff down in front of my 17 month old son EVEN hot plates! Who in their right mind sits a hot plate in front of a baby knowing a baby is going to...

Very disappointed with the food here. When we first walked in we were told they were booked. Thankfully a table was open and we were seated. It took way too long for someone to take our order. First, I recommend buying a cheese dip (small cheese dip $3.95, large cheese dip $12.95 😳) only because the "salsa" was so bad. Tasted like a can of tomato paste and is the worst I have ever had. I still can't believe they call that stuff Salsa. I feel sorry for the local people who eat here and think this is good. I can assure you that you've never had good Mexican food if you do. The food is very bland and the prices are too expensive. I would never recommend this place. The only compliment I have is that our server was friendly. Oh, and I forgot to add that my plate had an...
