Mi Tierra Grill & Cocktail Bar - Helensburgh

L Herriot

We live locally, and have had two marvellous dinners here - one just after it opened and again in late October. Both times it was great, really top food and interesting things on the menu, a little different. Loved the ceviche starter and the pork starter, as well as the beef fajitas, ribs, and octopus mains, pork belly side. Lovely fresh jalapeño pickled salad, and also interesting salsa selection to choose from. The puddings we’ve had were also scrummy - dulce de leche, the ‘three milks’ pudding, and the creme Catalan. Staff are lovely and the place itself has been really well put together it’s upmarket, ‘vibe’ is good but still cosy inside. Fab tequila cocktails with interesting twist eg pineapple jalapeño margarita. Service was quick and the food was so fresh. There are more things on the menu I want to try so will be back soon!

Thank you guys! We had such a lovely evening! Just what Helensburgh needed 🙂 Great cocktails, delicious food, attentive service and a cosy warm atmosphere.
P.S. The Octopus dish was out of this World!!🙌🏼

Had a fabulous lunch at Mi Tierra. We ordered a mix of small plates and mains and loved it….the ceviche was wild! Great cocktails and mezcal selection. Will definitely come back to try more of the menu. Staff were friendly and really helpful.

Had lunch here today , lovely atmosphere.
Great service from really friendly and knowledgeable staff.
Owner came out personally to talk to guests and was hands on making sure diners were well looked after.
Food was amazing , we both had the small plates . One of us is a carnivore and one a vegetarian, both of us were happy.
Really fresh and well prepared food with a mix of unique flavours.
Food to be savoured and enjoyed.

I try not to leave bad reviews as I also work in the hospitality industry but feel this has to be said. Visited a couple of days ago and was unfortunately put off by the service. The restaurant was empty and it was nowhere near closing time, staff were mostly just talking to each other and yet we didn’t receive a greeting or even just a smile. We were curious about getting a table but what I assume to be the hostess was nothing but rude. We politely asked a couple questions about the restaurant and she seemed like she couldn’t be bothered. She had quite an unfriendly attitude giving short answers and it seemed as though she didn’t want any customers. We were excited to try but unfortunately we didn’t feel welcomed at all and chose to leave. I’m writing this hoping to reach management as being friendly is so important when working in hospitality. This restaurant is fairly new I believe and would really benefit from a welcoming atmosphere!

Had dinner here tonight and seriously impressed! Lovely atmosphere, great service and cracking drinks. We had the flank steak sharer with sides and was so so good. Asked for a mayo style dip and the chef whipped it up for us on the spot. Loved every minute here and will be back again soon

The restaurant is nicely decorated, with a clean and stylish interior that gives a good first impression. Unfortunately, the atmosphere was severely lacking, making the dining experience feel flat and uninspiring.

The food was acceptable but unremarkable. I ordered the fajitas, which were ok, but under seasoned. Nothing stood out in terms of flavour or presentation.

What truly let the experience down was the service. The waitress was unwelcoming, which made us feel uncomfortable throughout our meal.

Additionally, I was disappointed to see a non-discretionary 12.5% service charge added to the bill for a table of two. While I typically leave a tip for good service, the mandatory charge felt unwarranted given the subpar service we received.

Overall, this was a disappointing visit. Despite the appealing decor, the lack of atmosphere, average food, and poor service made it clear I won’t be returning.

Absolutely beautiful restaurant, food and ambience! Just been for a lovely Sunday roast with family, and we cannot wait to come back! The staff were so polite and helpful, especially Chris and Aaliyah. Loved the music playlist, so chilled and the decor is gorgeous! Highly recommend the steak, and affogato espresso martini. 10/10…well done guys! 👏🏽
