    Food was good, customer service was excellent, restaurant atmosphere was ok. They have indoor and outdoor seating areas. They is plenty of parking in the shopping plaza. We ordered the Dueling Queso as a started, one of our favorites. I had their Garlic Lime Shrimp Bowl, it was so very well seasoned and they gave you a lot of food. My husband ordered a Burrito topped with Queso and he made it a meal which added Rice and beans to it. Everything was delicious. One thing I liked was that the sauce bar has lids for any sauce you might want to pack and bring home with your leftovers and it also has small paper bags for you to pack up your leftover chips. They also gave me a top that fit my bowl which made it easy to bring home without worrying about it spilling over in the car. I gave it a 4 because the bathrooms weren't as clean as they should have been and the indoor dining area felt and looked a bit dingy maybe it was due to the lighting and outdated.

    I'm satisfied with the cleanliness, atmosphere, and staff. There were a couple of hiccups (out of some chill is in the dispensers and the carefully prepared my meal... took a bit to go through.

    First time visit here! Very similar to Qdoba in the fact you walk in and order but you don't get to see you food made. I missed that part. The food was very good and seasoned for the most part but the steak seemed to be under seasoned. I wanted more flavor from the steak. Really loved the hot bar where you could pick your own sauce and level of spice. The yellow queso was good but tasted like that glass jar Tostitos cheese dip. The chips for the dip had an awesome seasoning!

    Tijuana Flats makes several of their menu items from scratch each day. The chips, salsa , tortillas, queso and guacamole are fresh prepared in house daily. The queso surprises me because it tastes exactly like the processed nacho cheese sold at stadiums and movie theaters everywhere. Their chicken is hormone free and they never use a microwave to cook or warm food. We ordered two beef tacos, chicken chimichanga and chips & queso . The chicken chimichanga was very good. The chicken taste fresh and was tender and juicy. Our beef tacos were seasoned nicely and the toppings were plentiful. The queso didn't taste like cheese.

    Earlier this week, I arrived about five minutes before closing to find the kitchen closed. A very apologetic manager explained that they had shut the grill about 15 minutes earlier. Without prompting and in an attempt to make up for inconveniencing me, he loaded me up with free iced tea, chips, queso, salsa and a gift card to give me additional incentive to give them another chance. Tonight, I made that return trip to enjoy Taco Tuesday (two big soft or hardshell tacos with chips and a medium drink for $5.99). My companion had a steak quesadilla and a Coke. The place was a major, but both meals were delivered to our table promptly and both were delicious. Finally, while not as spicy as I would prefer, the fresh guacamole is housemade on the premises!

    What's with the New policy where you cannot order anything by phone. What if you're driving? I was trying to order something while I was driving and now they said corporate change the rules and you can't order by phone. Really stupid policy Normally I love their food but this makes it very difficult for me to order and pick it up on my way home from work for my family.

    While a good restaurant for a burrito and a bit of hot sauce, do not expect much more. I do like that I found a hot sauce with Carolina reaper in it, but I was left overall unimpressed. A similar restaurant in winter garden has a lot more choices in hot sauces, a larger outdoor area and even has tequila. My blackened chicken burrito for about 9 bucks was mostly flour tortilla and I ate about half without really any meat. To make matters worse, the rice was hard enough in spots to make me think I had chipped my tooth. The sauce is flavorful and the counter staff is nice, but anyone who came out of the back didn't even look me in the eye. Maybe I caught on a bad night as everyone seems to be going downtown tonight.

    Laughable pieces of fish in one of my fish tacos. 1" piece, along with s pinkie sized piece.

By that time, I was pretty full off of the chips but the food overall was delicious! I ordered the kings memorial combo and it came with a little bit of everything. I tried the green chile rice and I enjoyed it alot. The enchiladas were well seasoned and everything was full of flavor. Because the server was swamped he barely checked in on us.

However, since we've had my son, we're not in the area as much so we don't come as often, but we were at icon Park today and this seemed like the perfect place to take the rest of my family. It was an absolute hit! Grandma yelled at me for holding out on her! Why haven't you brought me here before? She had the agave chipotle queso chicken enchiladas. It was our servers recommendation and they were absolutely delicious. I had the birria appetizer and it was excellent. It was an appetizer, but it was so large. We couldn't eat it all and it could definitely be a meal if you wanted it to be. The absolute best thing is the kids menu. My son loves chips and queso so much. Queso dip is one of the sides you can get with the kids meal. How amazing is that? We go to some Mexican restaurants and I spend more on queso for this child than I do on a meal for him or even myself. He had the cheese quesadilla with queso and rice as sides. After lunch, I asked him if we could come back here and he said oh yes! My son ate most of his meal, but grandma and I both ended up taking to go boxes. I feel like the prices are pretty reasonable, especially the kids meal and for the portions they give you even for the adult meals. Our server was absolutely wonderful. She brought out fresh chips and salsa almost immediately, and as soon as our chips started to run low, she immediately replaced them. As soon as we ordered, I asked if she could bring my son's queso first and she gladly obliged. It was a very hot day and she kept our drinks full. We will definitely be back.

Honestly, hands down the worst attempt at Mexican food I've ever had. This place honestly is a disgrace to Mexican food. The salsa was pathetic, no flavor and tasted like plain tomatoes. The second "salsa" we were told is a house favorite. It was literally a cold tomatillo ranch, gross. I got 2 ground beef enchiladas with Tex mex and a chili relleno. The enchiladas were not good but were also not the worst thing ever. The chili relleno however, tasted like a frozen pack of TGI Fridays mozzarella sticks from the store. No joke, you could taste the freezer burn on them. The beans were watery and had no flavor. The rice, you could easily tell has been sitting in a fridge at least over night. It was dry, hard, and also had no flavor. It amazes me these restaurant owners want to have a successful business, but insist on cutting corners and not making fresh food. Your food sucks and I won't be back. I wouldn't even let my dogs eat this food. Harsh huh? Simple solution, make your own food. If you want a successful restaurant, make your own tortillas, cook your own beef, make your sauce fresh everyday, shred fresh cheese, STOP CUTTING CORNERS. Any person with a good palette can clearly tell everything has either been sitting in a freezer or a fridge over night. The ambiance is also quirky and I'm not sure what themes they're going with. Woods, bricks, dogs on the wall, 90's color schemes, it's just not it. It takes me 5 minutes to make great food at home, I'll never understand why restaurants can't do the same. This is the type of place you see on a Gordon Ramsay show that he tries to save. My taste buds will never forgive me for eating here, don't make the same mistake.
