7 Best Tex-Mex Restaurants near Melbourne

“Our experience was great at this location. We had Vanessa as our server. She was so amazing. She brought drinks to the table before we even needed one. All the food came out the way that we ordered it nice and hot and she was very pleasant.“

“The food was great and It had great service. I totally recommend it 👌.“

“Bubbakoos is usually my go‑to because the food is consistently really good. I’ve never had an issue with most of their menu items, but I do feel like the shrimp can sometimes be a little slimy, which makes it pretty unappealing. Everything else tends to hit the spot, though.

As for the staff, most of the time they’re friendly and helpful. But there have been a few visits where some of the female staff members came off a bit rude for no reason. I totally get that working in customer service can be stressful and that customers can be difficult, but not everyone walks in with an attitude. If I come in smiling, greeting you, and asking how your day is going, I don’t think it’s too much to expect the same basic courtesy back. If I were being rude, I’d understand the energy being matched — but when I’m not, it definitely throws off the experience.

Overall, the food is good and I still enjoy going, but I do think the customer service could be more consistent.“

“Tijuana Flats, 10 E. New Haven Avenue, Suite 103, Melbourne, Florida 32901 4-Stars (Chain Restaurant Rating) Amazingly, prior to this review I had never patronized a Tijuana Flats, although I have been seeing them around Central Florida for the past 20 or 30 years and would sometimes have vague malnoia that I might be missing out on something good. Tijuana Flats falls into an interesting category of not fast food and not sit down. In 1995, Brian Wheeler--at the time, just a taco-loving college student--borrowed some money from his dad to open the first Tijuana Flats in Winter Park, Florida. It has since grown to 123 locations in four states, three of them in the Melbourne area. In addition to their quick casual food, they have a large assortment of fun hot sauces of varying intensities you can sample at the hot sauce bar. Find one you can't live without? You can purchase one or more bottles to bring home some heat and spice up your life. Jovi is our food facilitator, and she is wonderfully charming and helpful. If you are tired of burgers and want some exciting great tasting food, I'd advise you to try the following: Garlic Lime Shrimp Bowl with well-seasoned sauteed shrimp, cilantro lime rice (cooked correctly), black beans, poblano peppers and onions, corn salsa, garlic lime sauce, guac, queso fresco, cilantro cabbage and pickled red onions. A truly delightful offering. Cheesy Steak Flautas, two lightly fried tortillas with marinated steak, fajita pepper and onions, garlic lime sauce and cheese. Served with queso, pico, guac, sour cream, and jalapeños. A dish that was prepared quickly and tasted great. The Big Boy says, "Craving fast Mexican? Forget Taco Bell, run to Tijuana!"“

“What sets this Moe's apart from other locations is the manager, Tremayne. He is friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. Helped me with gift card promotions as well as several other things. He will make things right. Great staff and the usual great Moe's food.“

“In my opinion, good service makes quick restaurants like these stand out… Today, a friendly guy named Warren greeted us and served my girlfriend and I, his vibe was full of life, and we both chatted for a bit making jokes… but Warren was very knowledgeable on the menu and even helped me pick out some of the items for my bowl, I will surely be returning to this location again… good pick on hiring this guy!“
