“Fantastic staff, food, and drinks“

“Love Cantina Louie! This location is so clean and gives such quick and good service. Ana is a great server and made us feel very comfortable. We were so pleased with her service that we had to let her Manager, Willie, know and he even gave us a free appetizer card!!“

“Reuben waited on me. I tried fajitas, rice, beans, & mojitos. It’s was amazing. 10/10. Clean, stylish, outstanding foods and drinks!!!!“

“This is by far one of the best Mexican restaurants in Jacksonville. My wife and I learned about this place a week ago. We have now been here a few times. The staff is honestly one of the most professional, pleasant, and patient individuals we've come across in a long time. They make us feel as if we are walking into a family or very good friends house. I am not Mexican, (I am Ecuadorian) however I grew up in Los Angeles and enjoy mexican food very much. Their dishes are really fresh, they taste great, and the portions are very good and affordable. I love that they are able to accommodate my child, and made sure that his Torta was not only made the way he wanted it, but it also tasted amazing. The choco flan is out of this world. I would also like to recognize Jacobo (owner), he is one the most wonderful, pleasant individuals, I have ever met. When he and my wife talk about the different dishes their parents and family made for them, I can clearly see the enjoyment they experienced.“

“Great waitresses and the steaks are yum, they have Blue moon and free Wifi. Be wary of the games they add them to.your bill.when you or a child play them“

“la comida es muy rica 😋 los precios no son caros 👍💵 el servicio es muy bueno 👍 el restaurante tiene muy bonito diseño 💯“

“We are here for the first time since they got the new management! I see huge improvements! Food came out in a fast and timely manner, I didn’t have to beg for refills, and they have a kids color page now! If they had it before I never got it! So happy with the new service.“

“I was invited to go to Tijuana Flats as a last-minute thing! I decided to accept because I didn’t feel like cooking dinner that night! It had been quite a while since my last visit to any Tijuana Flats but this one was one I hadn’t ever visited.

This location was fairly busy for a Wednesday night. There was no problem with finding a table, tho. The food came out relatively quick and was delivered to the table, as opposed to us waiting at the counter like a take-out meal. It was all prepared just as ordered and the portions were great.

The restaurant was exceptionally clean given the amount of people that were eating at the time. The staff was very patient with the kids in our party as they placed their own orders. It was a good visit and worth the 20 minute drive! Definitely will re-visit!“

“I’ve been eating at La Nop since 2002. The best one, IMO, has always been the one on Beach Blvd. I moved away a few years back and was in town this week to visit friends and family. Met up here and the food was good. It’s not the same as the Beach location(though I’ve heard that’s all changed since ownership changed hands) but it’s still good. The prices are waaay higher now, but, that’s a trend everywhere. Nice atmosphere, great service. Queso is amazing. I am always chasing the high of La Nop on the early days.😍“

“Very good“

“I loved the atmosphere of this restaurant I think it was fantastic! I loved coming here and I highly recommend it. I got a good discount on this place and I have to say, I enjoyed it. Great burritos cut in 4 halfs and the managers were super nice! I highly recommend this place. I also, enjoyed getting a $10 discount as the menu item costs $14.50 for two!“
