Overall, the food was great. Most likely, I’ll be coming back. The vegan menu had changed quite a bit. It’s different from what is posted. No cauliflower wings… things I was looking forward to trying.

They used to be all vegan, so I was a little scared they wouldn’t have vegan options, but they did! Absolutely fun atmosphere and the food is just so delicious and reasonably priced!

Great Mexican food. Everything is vegan, but we went with non-vegan family and everyone was happy. They have a gluten-free menu as well which was helpful. Not only did it taste good, but it looked good to. Fajitas came out sizzling and smelled fantastic!

First thing I want to mention, it’s not a vegan restaurant anymore, waitress said it changed 3 months ago, we were very disappointed because we were going for the cauliflower hot wings. We stayed and ordered, the food was good, I got the shrimp cocktail and the Margarita flight, service was great. The worst thing for us was that there was a live band playing but it was TOO LOUD, they played as if they were in a stadium, it’s not a large restaurant so there was no need to play / sing SO LOUD, we couldn’t even talk to each other. We went on a Friday evening, 6pm & left by 6:50, ate and drank our food fast to get out, seriously, the band played TOO LOUD. Also, they didn’t have the AC on, it was hot in there, I saw a waitress fanning herself with a menu. Not going back but because of the band. We payed about $120 for 2 flights, shrimp cocktail, sushi plate and a street taco, it was just two of us.

We’re always on the lookout for great vegetarian and vegan when we travel and Madre Tierra did not disappoint! The plant based menu is excellent. We had the “shrimp” tacos and the loaded nachos with jackfruit. The jackfruit was so well cooked, tender and so flavorful! My partner declared the “shrimp” actually tasted like popcorn shrimp, which impressed him. Our drinks were also delicious and everything on the menu was so very reasonably priced. To top it all off, our server was wonderful and the kitchen turned out dishes that were both beautiful and prepared in a timely fashion. Looking around the venue, we noticed many happy families and couples. Everyone looked to be enjoying their meal. We absolutely plan to visit again!

This just might be my new favorite restaurant in Montclair. Finally, a quality, real food restaurant!!! Amazing drinks and the food that we tried was !!! I tried the popcorn sushi rolls (freaking amazing) and my husband tried the Chile Relleno also super flavorful. We are both not vegan but will definitely be back!!!
