    The last remaining EXCELLENT Tijuana Flats around. We live closer to 2 other locations but come here because the food and service is always excellent! Tables are always clean, food hot and without "extras" that you didn't order mixed in. Staff is always super friendly.

    Wet rice burrito

    The chipotle burrito I had didn't taste like chipotle maybe cause there was barely any chicken, when I say barely I mean that after deep search I found a little piece . It was mostly wet rice, wet. And the chips they gave me were like the left overs you find in a bag. Anyways. That

    This is one of my favorite places to meet my dear friend Jennifer. She's a Flats enthusiast! Saturday offered a great deal "2 for $20"! We shared a starter, then we each got an entree and two drinks. That's amazing! Service was great! Drinks were refilled by our two waiters promptly. There is plenty of space to eat inside or outside. Check out the painted ceiling tiles too!

    2 for $20 Saturday- Chips and Queso, Smokin Chipotle Chicken Burrito, Bangin' Chicken Burrito

    Went here this past Saturday with my husband as we were looking for some fast casual Mexican and we were pleasantly surprised. On Saturday they have a 2 for $20 deal which includes: choice of chips & salsa or queso, two entrees and two fountain drinks. Idk about anyone else but I'm pretty excited to get that amount of food for $20 these days. Food: we started out with yellow queso which was very tasty. For entree I got a chicken burrito bowl and my husband got a chicken burrito. Both were very yummy! I was also pleasantly surprised to find that they still give you chips on the side even with the $20 deal. Drinks: I don't normally talk about this but I got their strawberry lemonade which just really hit the spot! Ambiance: this location is actually much nicer than some of the others and they kept it very clean. Service: the staff was very nice and helpful when we needed a few things. Will certainly be back!

    Food service and ambiance are all ok. Its a generally good selection if you are looking for fast food Mexican cuisine

    Fajita Tacos
    Roxanne D.

    When someone asks me which Tijuana Flats they should go to.... I will say Lutz every time. I brought my daughter here for lunch. It was her first time. And it was my first outing since having major surgery. Best choice ever. I had the new Fajita Tacos. I chose a crunchy and a soft taco with the Blackened Chicken. I usually get the shredded chicken. I'm very basic. lol. Overall the Tacos are really good. Something I will probably order again for sure. My daughter got a shredded chicken burrito. She was shocked at the size. This thing was huge. She ate all of it. Based on the look on her face she loved it. Tijuana Flats Lutz y'all are pretty Great!!

    The food was fantastic and hot! The steak tacos are superb! Service was fantastic. Clean tables. Impressed with the staff and the delicious food! Despite being very busy the manager checked in with us and every table. Eli goes above & beyond.

    I've found a new spot for my tacos and burritos! Delicious and freshly prepared food! Love that! Orders are made to order and cooked when you order. The staff were pleasant! Location is nice and clean! We arrived around 5pm on a Saturday afternoon and beat the crowd that descended on this location for their dinner time meals! I loved that they have plenty of seating inside and more outdoors. The bathrooms are inside and only hold one patron per restroom. My food was ordered to go! I ordered steak tacos and a chicken burrito! Both tasted great! I enjoyed the various hot sauces and tried about 6-8 of them. I loved that they had to go containers for the hot sauces of your choosing. I also had an order of Hi-C fruit punch and strawberry lemonade! They were both watery with not much syrup... boo! However, if you love tacos, fajitas, burritos etc... I recommend you giving them a try. I doubt you'll be disappointed by the hot sauce choices!

    Tostadas- no longer offered

    Great service and really great Tex mex food. It's hard to find a good tex mex place in FL but this FL based chain hits the spot. With a Hot sauce bar included, you're in for a good experience. They stopped making the tostadas, which was my favorite item, however atom bombs, chimichangas and of course tacos are among the best menu items still around!

    Atom Bombs and Burrito
    Mary W.

    Came today for a quick lunch. Nice menu and easy to order. It is counter ordering. The staff are friendly and keep the tables bussed. My Atom Bombs were very good and hubby's burrito was also very good. The chips were a little stale today. Usually better and my lettuce wasn't as fresh as before. All in all it's a nice place to have lunch and they even served my hubby's favorite Michelob Ultra. It is ago to place for Mexican .

    At least 30 costumers inside, where was the 25% capacity?

    This is a must place to go for authentic Mexican food...!…read more Food -- The menu is made up of plenty of mouthwatering options that will satisfy all appetites. Ordered: *Fresh table side guacamole -- This is a must have. Fresh ingredients and the right amount of spices make this a delectable starter. *Fajita Texana -- A trio of steak, chicken and shrimp served with all the sizzling fixings -- plenty of bell peppers, onions, tomatoes. This dish is shareable and incredibly mouthwatering. It's served with rice, beans, pico de gallo, sour cream and tortillas: a perfect pairing for this dish. All fresh with a homestyle taste. *Margaritas -- This staple of a Mexican drink is like no other. Full of flavor, topped with dry edible fruits in a beautifully crafted glass. Service -- Our server was incredible: always courteous, professional and welcoming. Ambiance -- What a delightful and colorful place. Mariachis stop by every table and sign their hearts out; they even accept special song requests. This place is great for celebrations. There were so many birthday celebrations that evening and all were treated with spectacular happiness. Cannot say enough of this place...just that I loved it...! Cannot wait to come back when I am back in Tampa.

It comes with rice, flour tortillas, bean, salsa, and more. Unfortunately the steak chicken is not on the skillet. Overall our experience is good. Love the food.

    Don't you love good surprises? Yeah, me too…read more I'm a long fan of Vallarta's... and had been to most locations-except for two. This was one of them. For some reason, I never seemed to be in the area during margarita hours. That changed on Saturday, when we met up here for a weekend wind-down. It's bigger inside than you think-with a large dining room and a roomy separate bar area. I love the colorful Mexican-inspired tables and the tile on the room divider. There's a fun and festive vibe flowing in here. I'm very familiar with the Vallarta's menu and knew I wanted the cheese dip. You can use the complimentary chips (that come with salsa) for dipping, but I was craving the warm, soft tortillas---totally worth the extra $1.50 for three of them. I could have been full on that, but couldn't resist ordering one of the combos. For $16.95 (as of June 2026), I had a taco (beef/crunchy), an enchilada (cheese with verde sauce) and a chile poblano (no tomato sauce on top). What an amazing mix of flavors and textures-so tasty and filling, I took more than half of it home. That taco was stuffed with well-cooked beef, crunchy fresh lettuce and their yummy white cheese. Divine! The verde sauce had tons of spice and a depth of flavor. And the stuffed and battered poblano was huge! This is a massive value for money... and so satisfying! And the adorable sun shaped lime wedge on the margarita... sensational!!! That's their Instagram moment... and such a fun extra. So, I expected the solid food and fun atmosphere. But the service took this to the next level. Carlos was so accommodating. He really listened-made great suggestions-always picked the perfect moment to check in. He brought a plastic bag with the box for leftovers-and even a container for the remaining queso. His kindness and thoughtfulness is so appreciated-and elevated this experience. Bravo-and thank you. This location is in a bustling strip mall, on the south side of SR 54... just west of Wesley Chapel (the Caribou Coffee Shop is right in front of it-and there's a Trampoline jumping place next door). There's lots of parking-and you guys know how I love that. Can't wait to go back and bring the whole crew with me!

    Pains me to write this, after 15+ years of rave reviews…read more I knew the original owners and still friends with many of the staff (John - Manager, Walter - Chips & others) - I will really miss them! The food quality has gone notably downhill after giving them 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th chances the last 12-18 months... but it's just not good. Taco salads minus the meat, over-cooked/under-seasoned chicken fajitas and rubbery Chile rellenos (today!) - Too long under the broiler....there wasn't even 1 good bite. The chips are good, but they were out of Modelo Especial three times of the last 4 visits, so I can't even say the beer is good. Sadly I don't think I'll give it a 6th chance and move on. RIP Luis - You wouldn't recognize the place :(

    Chuy's has officially become part of our Silver Springs tradition. Whenever we're heading back…read morehome to Tampa after spending the day floating down the river in Ocala, if we're coming this way, we get excited knowing we can stop at Chuy's for some food and drinks before finishing the drive home. Yes, Chuy's is a chain, but if you're thinking typical chain-restaurant Tex-Mex, I personally think it's much better than that. I almost ALWAYS order the King's Memorial combo because for around $18, the amount of food you get is ridiculous--in the best way. You get a crispy taco, three enchiladas (cheese, beef AND chicken), Mexican rice and refried beans, plus crispy chips underneath the taco covered in that creamy queso. It hits the spot every single time, and I ALWAYS have leftovers. Little piece of advice: EAT THE TACO FIRST. Crispy tacos deserve to be enjoyed fresh and crunchy. They are not tomorrow's problem. My friend usually gets one of the burrito combos, which comes with a HUGE burrito, Mexican rice and black beans. She loves hers and usually ends up taking leftovers home too. I've also sampled enough food from other people's plates over the years to say I haven't really found anything here that I dislike. The fajitas are delicious, the margaritas are decent, and the prices are reasonable for the portions. Now let's talk about those complimentary chips and dips. We call the creamy one the "crack sauce." If you know, YOU KNOW. It comes out with the chips and salsa, and we literally have to make ourselves stop eating the chips because we want to save some of that creamy sauce for our actual meals. On our most recent visit, we sat on the bar side and had Ian taking care of us. He was friendly, respectful, quick with everything and checked in to make sure we were good. He even brought us some extra dipping sauce, which absolutely earned him bonus points with us. His name also happened to stick with me for a personal reason, so I definitely wanted to make sure he got his shout-out. The restaurant itself is super cute inside, and although we usually gravitate toward the bar side, the entire place has a fun atmosphere. Our service over multiple visits has consistently been good--20%-tip-worthy good--and the staff is usually pleasant and helpful. There are A LOT of restaurants to choose from in this area, especially if you're already over here shopping, so I know picking somewhere can get overwhelming. But if you like Tex-Mex and you've driven past Chuy's thinking, "Hmm... I wonder if that place is any good?" I definitely recommend stopping in at least once. If you hate it, I'm sorry. If you love it... you're welcome. We'll absolutely be back the next time our Silver Springs adventures bring us through Lutz!

    My two favorite things at Chuy's are the crack sauce and their queso both are just addicting. I…read morenormally get the Carbone steak tacos and I had the queso on the side. I got a beef burrito this time with the queso on top. It was delicious. We sat at the bar so the service was great. I believe it was Ian's first day by himself and he did a good job. He made me a really nice raspberry margarita on the rocks. This is definitely my favorite Tex-Mex place to come to.

I got the #30 combo lunch with a tamale, guacamole tostada and a taco (but upgraded to a carne asada street taco). Mostly everything lacked flavor - carne asada had some but would have been petter with lime and everything would have been better with some salsa (not the stuff with the chips). The tostada was unflavored refried beans, unflavored ground beef, iceberg...you get the point. The tamale had a red sauce on it (still no flavor) and a scoop of ground beef on it? Not sure why. Also odd...the other guests plates were only what they ordered. So you ordered a burrito? That's all you got. None of the rice and beans and "salad". But it wasn't listed on the menu either. Like I said, the skinny margarita was good though (better than the regular); place was very clean and staff were quick and nice.

Came with all the fixings probably didn't even need the additional side of pico but everything was very tasty, fresh & everything was made / packed with care.

Next time I'm back I definitely want to go here in person bc I really enjoyed take out from here. But 10/10, I'd highly recommend ordering Mexican from here! You surely won't be disappointed.
