Nice mexican food place, Fort Worth area

[Redd]

oh and campuzanos in midlothian, cedar hill and waxhachie have an out door patio. So way the weather has been and what time you go and if shes not a puss about warm weather might be an idea.

Yeah screw mi cocina. Its way overpriced for the food. I'd rather eat at OTB. Joe T's is ok food but the patio is nice.

I went to Mi Dia and took a small group. The food is very good, and the place is nice as well. Currently, getting there from NFW sux.

I'm not sure I'd call it real Mexican food. It's more new age Mexican, with New Mexico influence.

Brent and Brian is still correct in that it's worth going, for sure.

Depends on what you order. There is a tex mex section, and a Southwest section. But most of the menu is Mexico City Cuisine. The building and decor are called Mod-Mex or modern Mexican.

In the SW section they have a steak tampiquena that is absolutely phenomenal. Comes with a red sauce and a green, but I prefer the green and order it with just that. The tex mex items are good too.

The Sea Bass ceviche is out of this world. The duck plate is damn good. The ox eye stacked enchiladas are phenomenal. As are the pork belly tacos.

I've heard good things about Reata in Ft. Worth but never been there myself.

Never heard of Mi Dia and I go through Grapevine all the time. I'll have to check this one out with the ol' lady, thanks for the info Coop.

I swear to God I'll pistol whip the next person that says "Mi Dia From Scratch."

Sooo BCOOP, what's that place your buddy works at?

If you ever want to meet the guy Brent is referring to (if you're referring to the executive chef), take a young, attractive, cleavage-showing girl to dinner there and he'll make sure to deliver every course you order. lol.

LOL! Brent probably taught him that.

[hotrod66stang]

LOL. Every manager in every restaurant I ever worked in did that. I miss the service industry sometimes.

Go see my buddy at Mi Dia From Scratch on Main in Grapevine. It's right next door to Bob's, a block from the highway. Be warned, this is authentic Mexican, not Tex Mex.

The patio is beautiful if it's cool enough to eat outside. You won't find better Mexican food within 100 miles. Thank me later.

Honestly better than J.T.G's? If serious please pm me the address.

[STROKD]

Brent's pallet is the finest, don'tcha know?

But for serious, La Hacienda ain't all that great. I also think Mi Cocina is about as overrated as they come, maybe aside from Uncle Julio's or *gasp* Abuelo's. I've never been to Mi Dia From Scratch, though their menu looks good.

Lmfao, you just names 3 of my fav mexican places. If those all suck, I'm missing out. Please tell me where to go that's much better...

Oh ok, now I know why you don't like JTGs or the others listed. Not gonna waste gas unless I'm in area.

[BradM]

What does JTG mean? Just thought I would ask since you're just in here talking to yourself and all.

[jluv]

I like Mi Dia, but my favorite by far is still Mariano's in Arlington. Its not real fancy, or anything.

Joe t garcias. I didn't read entire thread before posting, saw he hated it, then saw what he eats at said mexican places, and declined needing his input. What he suggested is all fancy food, I'm a enchilada and tortilla person. Too picky to try what he suggested. Lol
