OMG!!! It was such a welcoming experience when I came. It was my first time here, and I was craving some tacos and burritos. I saw this place across the street from my tire shop and decided to check it out. I’m so glad I did. I’ll definitely be back soon! Got a new lunch spot ❤️❤️ I totally forgot to take a picture of the burrito, but everything was delicious and seasoned perfectly.

Update 7/22/24
We are regulars to Mi Placita.
We’ve been loyal through many of the changes that are being made to the dishes and menu. Some we didn’t really agree on, but still continue to resort to other loved dishes, only to find out they have also been modified. We first noticed the Classico Salad, they stoped putting spinach and reduced the amount of asparagus in it, dressing was slightly different too. We then noticed that ever since the lady server that was always there left, our guacamole was just not the same. The chile relleno sauce completely changed, and the chiles were burnt rubbery. The rice and beans the last time, they didn’t have the flavor they used to, in fact they didn’t have much flavor at all. Their sopes are smaller. This time the chips were soaked in oil (see pic). The enchiladas suizas along with the salad they served it with have completely changed, but surprisingly the sauce on them tastes good, dressing is also very good. Mi placita is changing into a completely different restaurant, not sure how I feel about the changes as there have been more negatives than good ones. For now we have decided to stay away a bit and visit once we feel like we are okay to try the dishes we loved with a different twist. I do want to add that presentation is much better and colorful.
Servers are attentive as long as you don’t get the younger ladies, as they tend to lack speed in making guac, and cashing you out.
The atmosphere definitely changed and is now more appealing, it now feels like a restaurant you can sit in without feeling out of place.
Original Review:
We love Mexico classico so when we heard Mi Placita was a branch, we had to try. We’ve been customers since day one and everything we try is absolutely delicious! We’ve had enchiladas suizas, ensalada clásica, chiles rellenos, tortas, sopes, tacos, caldo de res, pollo Acapulco platter, tres amigo platter, steak chimichanga and veggie fajitas . Everything is always on point!
Service is always great, fast, friendly and knowledgeable, dine in food comes out hot and in a timely manner. As far as food to go, i would rate it a 4 out of 5. It really depends on who packages your food, the really friendly woman will never miss a thing, where as the younger boys will always miss something, just check your food and it will be fine.
Atmosphere is a little deceiving at first, but I assure you it’s a full service restaurant with a very stocked bar, that serves great margaritas and Micheladas.
Parking is full during afternoon hours but it has never been an issue, lighting in the parking lot at nighttime could be better but it will not stop us from coming back each time. Plaza also has handicap accessible ramps by the nail salon.
We highly recommend Mi Placita and we give it a 5 out of 5⭐️

The food was wonderful and authentic. The owners are super prompt and very friendly! From Jalisco, they brought with them some dishes that you can’t always find easily here-like the Huaraches or Jamaica. Make sure to grab one of the scratch made desserts as well! Buen Provecho!

I ordered takeout for my son and I. He got the steak taco combo. The tacos had a lot of meat in them and he said they were tasty. I got a sope al pastor, and a steak chimichanga. Both were delicious. I only ate half of each because they are a good size. Especially the chimichanga. The ladies who work there were very nice and the service was great.

What a nice place! Clean, friendly service, the place is quite nice, really like the murals! And their food… wow! Really good flavor! It feels like homemade food.
Stopped by really quick and I got two burritos to go. While eating, I noticed all the ingredients were fresh, the salsa was delicious (I will increase their spaciness just a little bit more). It has been a long time I haven’t taste a good flavored burrito; it felt real not like Taco Bell.
I will definitely come back! Thank you, the food was not only a snack, it was an experience!

I ordered a burrito carry out for the first time and it was great. I met the two owners who were very nice guys and the whole staff was very welcoming. I will be coming back here again and will recommend to friends and family.

Fantastic food, super fast, very friendly staff, strong and tasty margaritas, excellent house-made hot sauces… This place has got to be in the running for best Mexican in Rockford, certainly the best in the area. Not the prettiest dining space but clean and not cramped, and everything else is too good to care. I’ll be coming back often!

This was not as good as I anticipated. I had heard some good things about Mi Placita, so my husband and I tried it for lunch. First, the menu online is not what is in the restaurant. My husband and I both ordered steak tacos with rice and beans. The tortillas were dry and rough, so it was hard to eat. The steak wasn’t seasoned and was not cooked long enough. The rice had been sitting under a heat lamp or something because it was hard and clumped together and had no flavor. The server was nice, and the inside was pretty clean. Lastly, which is what got me the most…. is that if you speak a different language and I am dining at your establishment, do not speak poorly or encourage that type of behavior just because you think they dont understand what you’re saying. I do not recommend it.

Love this little place, great for a quick lunch. Tacos are good. Birrias tacos dinner is great too!
Okay new owner and different, but it is still a wonderful place for a quick bite. Birrias is still wonderful and the three taco dinner is yum in every bite.
