Mi Dia From Scratch
About This Spot
Stepping into Mi Dia From Scratch feels like settling in among friends who care deeply about the roots and rhythms of their kitchen. Nestled on a bustling stretch of South Main in Grapevine, this spot strikes a balance between lively and laid-back, inviting guests to slow down and savor each moment—whether it's the chatter bubbling from neighboring tables or the warm glow that spills from the bar.
The pace here respects the craft of cooking from the beginning, with dishes thoughtfully prepared to spotlight bold, authentic Mexican and Tex-Mex flavors. You won’t find hurried plating or shortcuts; instead, there’s a gentle unfolding of scents and colors that hint at fresh-from-scratch tortillas, vibrant chiles, and bright salsas made for sharing. It’s a place where tableside guacamole becomes a small celebration, and margaritas—smooth and perfectly balanced—encourage raising a glass to both familiar comforts and new taste adventures.
There’s a cozy rhythm to the atmosphere, one that draws you into the communal nature of dining here. Generous portions arrive with the kind of friendly presentation that sparks conversation and invites everyone at the table to dig in. Whether you're craving the rich embrace of slow-cooked meats, the unexpected twist of wood-grilled salmon wrapped in banana leaf, or the playful sweetness of freshly fried churros paired with housemade ice cream, each dish unfolds like a story you’re eager to experience.
Mi Dia From Scratch blends the charm of a neighborhood gathering spot with the passion of a kitchen that honors tradition by doing things its own careful way. It’s the kind of place where the atmosphere feels warm without trying too hard, and the food resonates with the heart put into making it—from the way the guajillo rice complements a plate to how the spices in a chipotle rib linger, inviting you back bite after bite.

Mi Dia From Scratch – Team Lunch Review We visited Mi Dia From Scratch for a team lunch. The ambiance is excellent and very inviting. As the name suggests, everything is made from scratch, so the food did take some time to arrive. The food was delicious overall, though the vegetarian options were just okay. The chips, salsa, guacamole, and poblano rice stood out, with the rice being the highlight of the meal.

Had a great experience here today! Really cool that you can find new mexican flavors here; the red and green chile were awesome. Just wish all entrees included sopapillas+honey. The chips and salsa is a top 3 chips and salsa for me! The ox eye enchiladas had generous beef and the egg was a perfect over easy. My only critique would be the booth we were in had the benches pretty close to each other so it was hard to avoid bumping feet.

If you’re craving authentic Tex-Mex, this spot is definitely the place to go! The food is fresh, flavorful, and served in generous portions. From the perfectly seasoned fajitas to the cheesy enchiladas and crispy chips with salsa, every bite tastes homemade and full of flavor. The margaritas are a must-try—smooth, refreshing, and just the right balance. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, with a lively vibe that makes it great for family dinners or a night out with friends. The staff is friendly, attentive, and quick to make sure everything is just right. Tex-Mex comfort food at its finest—I’ll definitely be coming back!

We had an incredible dining experience at Mi Dia From Scratch in Grapevine! Our waiter, Jose, provided exceptional service, making our visit even more enjoyable. I highly recommend trying the chipotle ribs, they were absolutely delicious! The combination of the crispy taco and flauta was a perfect pairing that tantalized the taste buds. To top it all off, the sangria frozen margaritas were refreshing and added a delightful twist to our meal. Unlike many other restaurants that play salsa or reggaeton, the music here felt authentic and truly enhanced the atmosphere. Overall, it was a fantastic experience, and I can’t wait to return! Highly recommend!

This restaurant prides itself on the use of fresh ingredients in their scratch kitchen. This makes the food very flavorful and beautifully presented. The restaurant was surprisingly full for a random Tuesday afternoon. Our wait for a table for 10 was surprisingly short, about 15 minutes. The vibe was a loud buzz of activity with business transactions, date nights, and friends meeting up to trade stories. The menu offers a large variety of choices grouped and presented well. I focused on the Santa Fe section that uses the famous red and green chilis that have made New Mexico cuisine famous. I highly recommend the Xmas Enchilada with brisket.

There is a very unique flavor for true New Mexico style Mexican food, and this place knows how to do it RIGHT! We have tried to find the flavors you can only fine in New Mexico many other places and this is the 1st. You folks have 2 new repeat guests and well worth the 35 mile drive for us.

We stopped by for lunch on a Saturday. No reservations and were seated promptly. The food is good! The beef is seasoned. Nicely and not too salty. I particularly enjoyed the chicken enchilada. Look at that taco shell in the taco salad! The frozen with salt topped off with grand marnier is a must! Great atmosphere. Take a jacket as it was cold under the ac vent. Enjoy!
