Editorial Review for Mi Hogar Mexican Restaurant – by Marisa and Steve Marsey
The Scene
The friendly staff delivers Mexican food quickly and efficiently, only leaving time to munch a few salsa-dipped chips. This little family-style restaurant is popular with Old Dominion students, which is hardly surprising since the food is better (and cheaper) than in the dorms.
The Food
Daily specials pack a lot of food into a little price, with tacos, burritos and combination platters making up an expansive menu. Freshly made chips and two kinds of salsa hit the table before you can say "por favor." Hard-shell or soft-tortilla tacos are filled with savory meats like ground beef, shredded chicken or carnitas, cheese and lettuce. Pair them with an enchilada, burrito, rice and refried beans, and you've got enough food for lunch the next day. Wash everything down with an ice-cold Negra Modelo or Cuervo margarita and you're livin' la vida happy.

First, you will be in and out in 20 minutes regardless of Mother's Day or any other special day. We now giggle about it taking too long if it has been 5 minutes waiting on the food. Besides this, the food is incredible and very reasonable. I like everything they have, but the burritos tapatios is spicy goodness.
Pros: Service and food
Cons: In a shopping plaza parking lot

We just went to Mi Hogar, the reviews were great, but like the other person commented, probably written by friends and family. I cannot believe that it was supposed to be Mexican food. It was, dry, tasteless and nasty. We will never go back! I got #2, the Taco, Chalupa and Enchalada plate. The taco didn't taste like a taco, it didn't taste like anything. the shell was stale and tasted like cardboard. The enchalada didn't have any taste to it either. My husband had the CNA special or whatever it was called that came with one of everything. He wouldn't even eat it... dry nasty food. I don't know what kind of cheese they use, but it's not cheese, it tasted like some sort of goat cheese. The Salsa was runny and wasn't that great. They only thing they didn't screw up were the chips, but anyone can open a bag and fill a dish. Service, was fast and seating was prompt. Other than that, not worth the money! Not even worth the visit. If I could I wouldn't even give this place 1/2 a star! Disgusting!
Pros: parking, quick
Cons: food.
