“This restaurant is efficiently run. The manager, Kim, knows her "stuff". She has trained her staff to be both professional and courteous. I feel like royalty when I visit on Taco Tuesdays.“

“Came in for the first time today, and I left very happy! Owners came out to talk to me for a little bit as well, and were extremely friendly. Needless to say, the food was amazing as well. Highly recommend to anyone who wants to support local.“

“Went during lunch rush, but it wasn't too busy. Server was great and kept on top of our needs. Food came out SUPER quick. I mean scary quick. I had a burger, and it was close to too rare. Mushy in the middle. The bacon was great though. Overall not a horrible meal. Quick service to get you in and out.“

“The staff and service here are the best! Feels like family 🩷“

“I saw a person, going to different tables, and I was not sure if it was a he or she, as it was the body of a men, but the face was made up to be a woman. I assume he was a transgender? The waitress informed me that he was the Manager, and he was just expressing himself. A restaurant is not the place to do this. I will be writing to the Company. This was totally disgusting to see a Manager of a restaurant acting out.“

“We were so disappointed when our local Tijuana Flats closed, but we’re happy to say we’ve found our new go-to spot for Taco Tuesday! From the moment we walked in, Sophia provided outstanding customer service—friendly, attentive, and welcoming.

The food was absolutely delicious—fresh, flavorful, and served in generous portions. Everything came out quickly and tasted amazing.

We’ll definitely be back and are excited to make this our new Taco Tuesday tradition!“

“you can spend five minutes inside and recharge your battery with good vibes. excellent service . a spectacular design. an experience you must live“

“Giving a five star review- not because of perfection, (close, but no one is 🤩 ) and not because Tijuana Flats offers top notch costly meals and services; this rating is based on the quality and flavor, as well as the ever friendly staff and atmosphere.
The food here is delicious, well prepared, fresh, and not overly priced. We have our favorites, (like the “Dos Tacos” and “Atom Bombs”, the Chicken Chimichanga, and now adding the Tostadas to that list). We normally get the beef tacos, and the chicken chimichanga, all served with chips that are made fresh. Something to mention about the chicken choices-blackened chicken is good, but chunky- where the regular chicken is shredded, which we like better. Everything is made to order, with your specific taste profile in mind. We also enjoy the amazing sauce bar, where you can choose the sauce with the flavor of your liking; our top favorite is the “Smack My Sweet A$$ & Call Me Sally”, which has a delicious sweet yet spicy flavor that isn’t too hot- but if you prefer more of a kick, feel free to climb that hot, spicy and flavorful ladder- it’s safe to say that you’ll find the right one! After you’ve finished your meal, make sure to leave room for dessert… we love the “Cookie Dough Flautas”, which are flour tortillas stuffed with cookie dough and deep fried, sprinkled with powdered sugar with chocolate syrup to dip them in if you prefer. You can call in an order, or make an order online or on the app, or come in and sit down and enjoy the fun artwork and friendly atmosphere. Most have indoor/outdoor seating as well. All of them have the “Hot Bar” station, to grab the sauces I mentioned above. They have a selection of bottled sauces that you can purchase to take home and enjoy. They also have a great drink selection, with a few choices you don’t see elsewhere.
We now go to the Hunt Club location, located in the Apopka area, off of 436. Great staff, and any interaction we’ve had with Josh, the manager, has always been stellar. Great people, great location.
To sum it up, this place offers delicious fresh meals that hit the spot. Highly recommended. We’ve been customers since the first Tijuana Flats opened up in Winter Park- and we have been more than happy with them ever since.“

“I visit the Tijuana Flats Longwood every Tuesday. Most of the time I am very satisfied with my order. Today I was not! Tacos were cold, Just about no cheese, no jalapeño peppers as ordered plus received jalapeño sauce instead of the habanero sauce I ordered. To top it off ordered queso and did not receive it. No more curbside pick up for me. I will now walk into restaurant and check my entire order before I leave. Very disappointed and my not leave a tip next time. Appeared to be totally confused today. Also no receipt so could not do survey.“

“Fresh, delicious tacos!!! Don’t forget to order the cookie dough flautas!!! Fun, friendly staff!!! Go get some great grub!“

“Every single time I come here they seem to be under staffed and the person ringing up the food is also bagging up all the to-go’s and it’s 2024 everyone is getting food to go. I always wait in line to even order for more than 10 minutes watching the worker bag up food it’s very frustrating. The workers work very hard it’s not their fault just get more employees please!“
