Tierra Caliente - Childersburg

Best Mexican Around!. This is the best Mexican restaurant in at least 40 miles. Birmingham is 35 miles after 280W and that beats everything I tried. The only contest would be 15 miles away in Chelsea in Habanero's. Service here is excellent!, not the typical Mexican with a posture waiter like all others. We work about 8 miles from here and we often joke about how the waiters refill your drink and salsa bowl before it is consumed 1/4. Food is also very good, my wife said she had the best chicken quesadilla she ever had. The staff is friendly. Once a party leaves 2-3 employees, clear the table and clean it with literally steaming towels. My wife and I are picky where we eat, we were impressed. It is not what I would call cheap eating, the prices are a little more than others, but good portion sizes.

Wonderful restaurant. Very friendly, warm and welcoming environment. Food is amazing. Cleanest restaurant I've ever been. They continuously score 100% from the health department. Hands down, the best. Thank you for your further service. Very recommended!

Great. Fast service, friendly waiter, delicious food definitely worth going back. Besides, it's just FESTIVE inside!

We have been eating great food for 5 years and one of the cleanest places a 100 on the heath gets time after the time. We like #20 in the menu.

Of all the Mexican restaurants in our area, this place has the absolute BEST service. If you frequent the restaurant, they remember what you want to eat, your kids names, and the type of drinks. They interact on a personal level. Their price is a little higher but it is worth it. Feeling like you are actually wanted at the establishment goes a long way in my book.
