Tierra Caliente — Restaurant in Goose Creek

Dined in. Chips and salsa were bland. Asked for hot sauce and they brought a homemade sauce in a bottle, which is fine the problem was it also wasn't spicy. Ordered a diet coke and a coke and gave us two glass bottles of coke no diet. Ordered chicken and shrimp fajitas and Texana fajitas and they brought the chicken and shrimp first and we thought it was odd she asked if we wanted tortillas with it. My wife asked is this fajitas she said yes. Then the texana fajitas came out on a cast iron skillet unlike the other one and came with tortillas, rice, and beans. My wife told them she was supposed to get beans too so they brought her beans as well. We knew things were off, but continued on. My wife then found pineapple in her dish and that's when we 100% knew it was the wrong dish so we told them. They did offer to make her fajitas, but we declined because everything up to this point. The rice and beans have no seasoning at all you will be begging to taste SOMETHING. I will say the chicken and steak were seasoned well, but we're extremely dry and chewy(steak) the shrimp I feel was overcooked so it was very fishy didn't eat it. When we got the check it clearly showed my wife's dish which we gave to the raccoons behind our home she did not eat even a quarter of. They charged us for her beans and the tortillas $3.50 for the bland beans and $3 for the tortillas (3). TBH if it wasn't for a strong language barrier we would have definitely handled it differently! NEVER AGAIN will we ever eat here. It's was AWFUL! Terrible way to spend $60...

To piggyback off the other most recent 1 star review, I had a similar experience. I have been to this restaurant many many times and it has been good but it seems they are starting to take a downward turn. I ordered 5 tacos tonight and 2 were taco americano which i have gotten many times. These tacos always come in a hard shell and I was not asked on the phone what my preference was. I got there, paid, and received my food. I got back to the car to check my order and noticed the taco americanos were in soft shell. No big deal. I go back and explain the mix up, they take my food and I thought my tacos would be remade fresh. I got home to discover that they took my food in the back and dropped my existing tacos, shell and all, into another (hard) shell. So, pretty much screw me and my money and my experience. Guess I'll go home and play chef and do their job for them. News flash, you're one of like 25 Mexican restaurants in town, you better start caring about your customers because you just lost a frequent customer. Also, girls working the counter have no people skills and the personality of a toothpick. The atmosphere SUCKS, plain and boring like do you even care. Must be why there are never any patrons inside. Start caring about your business bc Charleston and surrounding ain't the place to play around. Keep going like this and you'll be closed sooner than later. Like I said, you ain't the only taco stand in town. Go to blue tequila to learn a little about atmosphere and...

Where do I start?? We frequent this restaurant one or two times a week tonight we ordered DoorDash from this restaurant and it was absolutely disappointing!! I ordered two orders of chips and salsa that weren’t even included in the bag (10) I ordered two large cheese, dips and chips-(4.95x2) We received two tiny little cups and no chips (See photo) I ordered two pieces of street corn with very light mayonnaise- (See Photo) Instead, they loaded it down with me mayonnaise which was absolutely disgusting!!! Straight in the trash- (3.99 x 2) we also ordered a burrito California- (12.99) The avocados on top were rotted and who made the pico today because they put pale tomatoes on it that weren’t even ripe and I ordered steak for the burrito and they were two or three pieces in it?? And also the side of rice that we ordered was very undercooked! I’m not sure what happened tonight and would hate to think that this is the beginning of a turnaround for you guys because we usually love your food but tonight it wasn’t happening!! I have given you many kudos to our neighbors talking about how good that your food was-I can’t do that...
