" Such a lovely evening! We visited Mi Nidito while on vacation, and the experience was memorable. We ordered carne asada and chicken fajitas, and they were both well-seasoned and flavorful. For drinks, the frozen margaritas are a must-try. The staff was really friendly, though we did have a bit of a wait for our table. Still, it was a great restaurant experience that I'd happily recommend to anyone visiting Tucson! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was excited to finally visit Mi Nidito after hearing so much buzz about it. Upon arrival, we faced a 30-minute wait, but it was worth it. The ambiance gives off a cozy family-owned vibe. I tried the famous Presidential Plate, and every component was delicious -- especially the tamales, which were the best I’ve had outside of my grandma’s kitchen. The service was friendly, but a bit slow due to the crowd. Overall, I can't wait to return! " (*Curated Review*)

" The atmosphere of Mi Nidito is unique! It's almost like you're in another world filled with culture and authenticity. The meals here are generous and really flavorful. I had the combination plate, and there was more than enough for me to take home for leftovers. The only downside was a slight tackiness in some of the garnishes, which were not fresh. Still, overall a lovely experience that I hope to have again. Worth a visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" Mi Nidito is one of those local treasure spots where the food brings you back to reality. Everything we ordered had so much love poured into it. From the freshly made tortillas to the spicy salsas, it felt genuine! We couldn’t finish our meals due to the portion sizes being large. Expect a wait, but the atmosphere and food are worth it. Highly recommend their enchilada or chimichanga dishes! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Mi Nidito hearing its fame, but honestly, it was quite overrated in my opinion. We encountered an hour-long wait to be seated, and the food wasn’t that great. My hard shell tacos were soggy and bland, and my partner’s burrito lacked flavor. While the staff seemed friendly, the service was really slow. It was a decent meal, but I expected much more based on the reputation. " (*Curated Review*)

" I've been a regular customer of Mi Nidito for years. It’s like the restaurant is part of my family history. Every visit is filled with nostalgia and delicious food. However, in recent times, it seems that the food quality has slightly changed, possibly due to new management. While I still cherish their burritos and nachos, I hope they revisit the original recipes that made them special to retain loyal customers like myself. " (*Curated Review*)

" We came for dinner as a group of friends, eager to try the legendary Mi Nidito. The environment was fun and filled with laughter. I went for the fish tacos and will say they were quite good, but what stole my heart was the strawberry margarita we shared. The wait time for food was longer than expected, but our server was doing her best in a busy time. Overall a good dining experience. " (*Curated Review*)
