Tijuana Flats

How many times do I need to check into a place before I finally decide to review it? Apparently about 7 times. Obviously I love this place. Ordered their nachos by mistake one day and fell in love. Their chicken nachos are amazing! I also enjoy their Cheesy Double Stacked Tacos. Burritos are good, flautas, I can on and on. If you haven’t tried TF yet… keep it simple and go. Not too pricey and really good food. Can’t go wrong here. I dare you to try their ghost sauce on their hot sauce bar. I won’t.

Food is always great. Service is friendly. I come just about every Tuesday for their «Taco Tuesday» 2 tacos, chips and a drink for 5.49. A good price for great food! My favorite sauce is the Mae ploy sweet chili sauce! I would recommended this place to anyone.

So I frequent this place quite often and I must say that it is one of the more interesting restaurants I have been to. Yes they have plenty of locations but I am being biased on on this particular one. lol… This particular location has great service and a friendly staff that is willing to do whatever they can to make your experience enjoyable. The menu has changed a couple of times with the adding of items, taking off items, and changing the look of the menu (most Gordon Ramsey style for those of you that watch Kitchen Nightmares). Oh yeah they do have happy hour and I am not sure if they still have a live band, but maybe that was for only the summertime. I actually never went to those events but I am sure I will go if and when they offer it again. Overall nice place and somewhere I can go to get a good meal and great service.

Never disappoints… Glad I stopped. Beef & Bean Norrito bowl to die for. Service was excellent as always. Prices great. Clean. Fresh & quick. Love the music too… Playing you’re my dirty little secret right now… haha.

As with any Tijuana Flats, this location delivers consistent quality Tex mex food at an affordable price. The staff is always friendly, the environment is welcoming, and it’s always clean. They offer a bunch of vegetarian options and you can «power lite» your meal by using fat free cheese and low fat sour cream.

Love their friendly atmosphere. they’re awesome with our Great Dane fur babies. good food, best food for your Buck!

Came here for the burritos and also received a side of rice and refried beans. I’m picky about my Mexican food and I’d have to say, I’d rather go to Chipotle than this place. The burrito was small, loosely wrapped and bland. Even taco bell has better burritos. Don’t believe the hype!

If your looking for grub that is tasty and wallet friendly, this is definitely your place! Especially on Taco Tuesday when you can get 2 oversized tacos, chip and a drink for under $ 6 bucks. The best part of the restaurant is their sauce bar!!! The sauces are so good, you seriously want to drink them with a straw, lol! Always great customer service and good food. My favorite sauce is the smack me on the ass and call me Sally! Sweet and savory :) My younger cousin loves their quesadillas, and my mom likes the chimichangas. But I’ll tell ya when I’m not trying to watch the waist line, I go for the burrito with ground beef and queso over the top… Epic! But because I’m trying to loose a few pounds, lol. I like that you can get your meals with the «power lite» option which save you some calories. Can you tell that I’ll be back :)

Enjoyed the excellent Mexican food. Wish they used regular plates. Everything was disposable.

Is it possible to give no stars? This is possibly the worst establishment I’ve ever been to and I’m baffled as to why people rave about this place. We ordered two chicken burritos with cheese lettuce and onions to go and were more than disappointed. When I opened the box, I found the burrito to be pretty small compared to other restaurants where they hand you pounds of amazingness wrapped in foil. This? No where near one pound of anything.
I took one bite and all I could taste was flour tortilla. I had another bite and couldn’t taste anything other than some cheese, lettuce, and flour tortilla. I then saw a pinkish red rim on the edges of the burrito and asked myself — what the hell was this? I didn’t add any sauce or anything to it — so I opened the burrito and was in for quite a surprise. The chicken apparently is mixed in with some sort of Mexican style sauce — and the combination of the chunks of chicken in the sauce, lettuce, onions and cheese literally looked like vomit. I put down the burrito and was done.
The only good thing to come out of this experience were the chips — but again they had some sort of seasoning on them which made them taste almost like Doritos.
I will go stand in line at Chipotle for hours before I come back here. Come to think of it, I would take Taco Bell over this place on their worst day.

Please have your manager?, stop addressing me as «boss»!
While attempting to pick up my online order this guy with a handlebar mustache called me boss 3x’s like he knew me.
Cmon flats, let’s understand how this is supposed to work.

We were very disappointed. Our chimichanga had hardly any meat in it, salsa wasn’t included, even though chips were. It was just very mediocre food, though the service was good. Do yourself a favor and go to Moe’s or Chipotle.

My favorite location! The staff is awesome and the food is so delicious!!! My favorite is the tostadas!!! Get a side of queso to drizzle over them! They have great specials… taco Tuesday is by far the best deal! Thank you Avalon Tijuana Flats for never disappointing!

I’ve never understood the obsession with Tijuana Flats. Sure, the service is good, and the salsas are interesting. However, that doesn’t make up for the lack of flavor in the food. I had a salad with fish. The fish did not taste too fresh, and didn’t have much flavor. I hate to rely on sauces to make my food taste good.
The price is right and if you come for the Taco Tuesday, I guess it is a cheap meal. However, the times I have gone to various Tijuana Flats, I have not been impressed.

I love their house salsa. So fresh and flavorful. Also, by far the best fish tacos I have ever had in my life. It’s amazing how their fish tastes better than some places beachside. Sad they aren’t a part of their Taco Tuesday deal, but that’s okay. Everything is good here.
Tijuana Flats has an awesome backstory (UCF ties!) and it’s really cool to see them expand as a franchise.

I’m really not a huge fan of Tijuana Flats. It’s an overpriced Taco Bell for yuppies who don’t want to be seen at Taco Bell. Weather, time constraints and laziness made my family get to-​go.
The quesadilla I ordered was thin, with very little meat. It came with a handful of chips even though the picture on the website shows rice and beans. Bleh. This particular Tijuana Flats gets 2 stars.

All I can say is awesome In Every way. The staff is super friendly, the food is always so fresh and delish…
They let me pick what I want and make sure to always point out the hot sauce bar… Where I always end up with 4 – 5 mini cups to try them (again). Then take one or two little mini cups home for my leftovers.

Tijuana Flats was introduced to me while living in Orlando and years after, I’m still coming back. Two reasons: good food and good service. Just that simple.
As a vegetarian, I love that they make sure to point out what items are vegetarian and allow almost everything on their menu to be made meat-​free.
Tex-​Mex meals are simple dishes so it’s not necessarily the actual entrees that make a good place, but the quality of the ingredients. On every visit, to multiple Tijuana Flats locations, they always deliver quality ingredients which in return means delicious entrees that are consistent.
I’ve tried many of their entrees including the tacos, nachos, flautas, and chimichangas. I enjoy each but I love the flautas the best. These are a great buy because you get queso and guacamole included with the flautas. Couple this with their hot sauce bar, you have a winning combination.
Overall, vegetarian or not, I highly recommend a visit. If you want high quality, reasonably priced tex-​mex, this place is worth trying.

I came here based on Unilocal reviews, and boy am I glad I did!
The hubs and I are in Florida for business and fun, he’s busy today so I got to roam around, where better to than go get some Tex Mex? Mexican food is fast becoming comfort food to me.
There were ample parking when I arrived around lunch time. I was a little confused when I first came in because there weren’t anyone at the counter and no one spoke with me. I finally saw a sign that says to grab a menu, order at the counter then find a seat to sit down. Phew, that wasn’t so hard!
I got the guacamole and chips, and chicken flautas. Too bad they didn’t have horchata.
The girl at the counter was super sweet and nice, she gave me the chips and guac on the house just because I said it was my first time there! I was stoked!
After sitting down, my appetizer came quickly, the guacamole tasted refrigerated so I don’t think it was made to order but prepared probably hours before. Since it’s free I can’t complain about free!
The chicken flautas were pretty good, it’s not like what I had in college but the chicken was flavorful. It had a warm dipping sauce that was good but I don’t really know what it is!
All in all I had a lovely meal, the atmosphere is lively and laid back, lots of regulars, the price is really affordable, my meal was $ 9 something including taxes and tip. The wifi is nice and strong (and free!) too.
This place also has tons of sauces for sauce enthusiasts!
I gave it 3 stars because it’s not the sort of Mexican food I’m used to, being from Cali and all, but having said that, the service is 5 stars and beyond.

I’m told that the stores all operated the same. I’ll be the judge of that!
I was promptly greeted at the door and given a menu… no need for that because I was going for that delish bangin’ chicken salad. This is salad going to be my heart throb for summer 2014.
This time I was in the mood for some guacamole so I added the trio. The sauces were good but having recently had some very fresh queso, salsa and guacamole at a place in Tampa I’d have to say it wasn’t as great as I had hoped. All in all, I left a full and happy customer. I shall return… frequently.
