    The food is really good but the margaritas will knock you out. Slept for four hours after an early lunch. Not really any ambiance. Just food and drinks with a chili sauce bar.

    As I was walking up to the restaurant, a girl came and open the door for me. She was very polite and provided great service. I ordered the chicken chimichanga with side of rice and retried beans. I wish there was melted queso on top of the chimichanga though. Food was very delicious and the tortilla was very crisp! Great portion of food. As I finished my food another server came by and picked up my plate. Will be coming back here soon!

    I decided to go to this restaurant because I was so hungry and just wanted to kill some time. So I went and was very disappointed. I decided to order the two tacos (fish) And decided to get the mega one. Or the up charge which is basically full it all out. Completely unnecessary thing. What I should've did was just order the tacos as is. The tacos were decent. And that was about it. Everything else was just basic including the service. I wouldn't really come back here again unless someone was having an event here or really wanted to go to his place. I thought it was just OK .

    I ordered the steak salad with citrus vinaigrette, it was delicious . The service was amazing . I love the plentiful choices sauce bar.

    Ordered two tacos, one soft, one hard, no black olives, on jalapeños, think you forgot everything else

    Ordered2 beef tacos, no black olives or jalapeños, think you forget everything else just hamburger taco

    Half eaten chicken chimichanga.  So much deliciousness

    I was really skeptical about ordering from Tijuana Flats Apopka tonight due to a previous experience. I am absolutely glad that I did! Chicken chimichanga and a side beef taco totally hit the spot. I ordered online for myself and my family and the food was ready as soon as I walked in the door. Delicious!!!

    This location just opened and they mean business! I have always enjoyed Tijuana Flats and was excited to see they opened a location closer to me. Stopped in on their second day of operation and was surprised at the professionalism from the new staff under the chaos of the crowds. They moved the line very quickly and took care of every guest ( to include the elderly who couldn't deal with the line). Very professional. I ordered my usual pick dos, chicken quesadilla and a taco and was not disappointed. Very fresh and tasty. Perfect amount of toppings and cheese. Coming back for sure! This location is much larger than some other locations and can host lots of people and large groups. There is also nice outdoor seating. Very happy with my overall experience. Give it a try!

    Supposed to be cheese free, meal (extra charge), extra lettuce and tomatoes. Sticker has it right, but who reads that anyway?

    Tried them again. Different manager, same crap. Wrong order and the salsa smells like it was out in the Florida sun for 5 days before they sold it to me. How that happens is beyond me.

    Upon entering the restaurant, you place your order at the register. You chose a seat (either indoor or outside) and then your food is brought out to you. Ordered the bowl and dos tacos with beef, rice and refried beans. Rice and beans were a little cold, but edible. Having to get out of your seat and walk back to the register to wait for drink refil wasn't pleasant (there was a line). McKenzie was VERY upbeat and was working very hard.

    My Go-To Spot for Ladies Night, Margaritas & Mexican Magic!…read more If you ask my bestie where we're headed for ladies' night, chances are we're making a beeline for Garibaldi. At this point, their staff should probably have our margaritas rims ready before we even sit down. I've worked my way through quite a bit of the menu, and one thing remains true: the food is always fresh, flavorful, and absolutely delicioso. Our favorites include the salsa, queso, chips & guacamole (because let's be honest, chips and salsa are basically a love language), the Birria Empanadas, and the Steak Garibaldi. Every bite is so good it's practically a queso emergency when the plate is empty. The atmosphere is lively, welcoming, and perfect whether you're planning a girls' night, date night, Taco Tuesday, or simply looking for an excuse to avoid cooking. The staff is always friendly, attentive, and helps keep the good vibes flowing right alongside the margaritas. Speaking of margaritas... the tropical mango margarita with the Tajín rim deserves its own Yelp page. Sweet, tangy, refreshing, and dangerously easy to order "just one more." So here's my advice: come for the tacos, stay for the vibes! Garibaldi continues to be one of my favorite local spots, and I'll definitely be back for more chips, more laughs, and more margaritas. Cheers!

I went at the recommendation of a friend who highly recommended their ceviche. My daughter and I went and tried the dip trio (salsa, guacamole and queso). We waited in line for a few minutes right after they opened and were served pretty quickly. The restaurant was painted brightly and decorated with pictures of the food on the wall in addition to a sugar skull theme throughout. All three of the dips we ordered were good, large portions and came with fresh, hot (and delicious!) chips. The guacamole was easily the best of the three, in my opinion. Creamy, tasty and so fresh! I ordered the ceviche and my daughter ordered the birria torta. I ordered the pineapple aqua Fresca and she got a Jarritos drink. Our lunches came out quickly. The ceviche was a large serving. Probably enough for 2 people! Chunks of shrimp and topped with guacamole, this ceviche was standard, in my opinion. Nothing special. It was good. I requested chips instead of saltines to go with my lunch. Large portion sizes are really the hallmark here. Again, the food is good, but unremarkable. Same holds true with the birria torta. A large serving of chopped beef (not shredded) and a taste very similar to a pot roast, this was equally unremarkable. Both of our lunches were excellent quality, and fine in taste. If you are in the area I recommend giving them a try. The place is clean, the staff is friendly and the food is good!

We were greeted when we walked in and service is at the cash register so this is more of a quick service style restaurant. The restaurant itself has plenty of seating despite being in a small space, and is very cheerfully decorated. We ordered some flautas, steak and pork tacos, and chips and queso. There is a topping bar for your tacos with lettuce, tomatoes, onions, and hot sauces. The chips and queso were delicious, and the flautas were also fantastic! I didn't like the refried beans as much as my husband did--they were on the thinner side and to me the taste wasn't what I wanted it to be, but the rice was good. The flavor of the steak taco was great but the cubes of meat were too big in my opinion. The real star of this show was the tacos al pastor! Super tender and delicious!!! If Yelp had a half star system, I would definitely have given a 4.5 but since they don't it feels necessary to round up to a 5, because overall this place is a winner! We will definitely be back!

My wife actually went before I did, and she said it was okay. So one night, we decided to go and try it out together. We walked in and were quickly greeted by the hostess. I looked around and had a hard time recognizing the layout as they had really made it different than the barbecue place before it. The decor is beautiful, and I felt as if I was in a Mexican Cantina in Mexico City! She asked if we wanted a booth or a table, and we chose a booth. While it wasn't packed, it was fairly busy, which was a great sign. We sat and were given menus, which were quickly followed by Chips & Salsa. She asked what we wanted to drink, and I ordered a Michelada. The Chips and Salsa were good, not the best I have ever had, but tasty. We ordered queso dip and a main course, and my Michelada arrived- the best I have ever had in Apopka, and rivaled any that I have had anywhere- great start! The queso was good, typical. I had steak tacos, and my wife had a burrito. We also had a side of tamales. Everything was fresh and tasty, and we were both very impressed! The staff were friendly and genuinely happy to see us; I felt like a long-time customer. We have been back several times and have enjoyed each visit. We will definitely keep coming back!
