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!" read more

This location is always the best! The team members are always nice and the wait is rarely more than a few Minuets. It can get busy on taco or burrito day but the the wait is always worth it. Side note: they made my nachos look really cute! read more

Tijuana Flats - My Nacos! They were delicious - Tex-Mex Near Me - Melbourne, Florida

It's strange that they don't have the menu posted, you have to use a QR code to see it on your phone- I don't get that. Why not have a board? Anyways...placed an order for 3 tacos and a taco salad at 12:15 (only 1 other person waiting for food in restaurant- I know there's mobile orders) and at 12:35 still did not have food. We have a short lunch break, so given this alone, we will not be returning. People who ordered after us, same items, got their food first. Not to mention, the food was bland, cheap ingredients, not sure why they call the steak "steak" when it it's just above dog food quality, and they took away the hot sauce bar so you have to ask for them. The fountain soda machine should be out for guests to use themselves also in my opinion, not behind the counter. Honestly, this place has gone down hill. Will go to other lunch places in the future. read more

4//18/2023 Ordered curbside the tacos were almost cold. I ordered a drink but didn't get a straw I also ordered sauce with my tacos and didn't get any sauce. I ordered a side of beans and rice but didn't get any silverware. 5/7 read more

Flavorless Food, I see why they offer multiple hot sauces, to burn your mouth so you don't notice the bland taste got Beef Burrito and a Chicken Burrito, both were supposed to have cheese, no cheese was on either. The Beef Tacos I had were ok. This is the last time I try this place. They don't give Salsa with their entrees or Chips they charge you for Salsa, Maybe if they gave salsa the food would be palatable. The worker was very pleasant. Should not charge for Salsa, get rid of the free hot sauces instead. read more

Taco Tuesday's, YUUUPPP! Throw back Thursdays, YUUUPPP! This place is new to our area. So far it has been really great! Food quality is spot on. All the art on the walls is really great. I love the graffiti look. We were set back at first when we went to leave because there was no trash can's. Turns out, people clean up after you. They also bring the food to you table, which we thought was odd because it was walk up and order type of place. The plant size is very respectable! We go here on lunch and can split a nacho's and still have left overs. Same on Thursdays we cut the burrito in half and we are great. They have an awesome sauce bar! So many to choose from. They offer two Ghost pepper sauce's. Most places claim Ghost pepper and its actually kind of weak. NOT HERE! When they say Ghost pepper they are not just trying to reel you in. It is HOT, I mean Fire it is pretty great! My mouth was on fire and when I got back to work my stomach was burning for hours! And that was just from like quarter pump. Give it a try! I triple dog dare you! read more

I placed a pick up order. I specifically requested in the instructions not to include any sour cream. Instead they put sour cream in the same container as my guacamole :( Other than that, my quesadilla was good. read more

Tijuana Flats - Guacamole - Tex-Mex Near Me - Melbourne, Florida

Do yourself a favor and DO NOT go here. My husband and I went on Sunday for lunch, shared a chicken burrito with their chips. The chips were so soggy with grease they didn't even crunch. The burrito was pathetic, no taste but the worst is it's Tuesday evening and my husband and I still had severe diarrhea, fever, heart burn and to sick to leave the bedroom. Thanks for the food poisoning Tijuana flats. If you wanna be severely sick please go by all means. Worst place ever!! read more

I placed an order online to be picked up the next day. When I arrived, I was informed there was a problem with communicating the order to the in-store system. The male employee at the front was very accommodating and had the kitchen make my order. It only took a few minutes and was fully accurate. This was my first time eating Tijuana Flats food and I veganized the veggie megajuana burrito: rice, black beans, pico, onions, jalapeño, lettuce, no cheese or sour cream. The burrito was indeed mega. It was actually quite flavorful and satisfying, despite not having a meatless protein substitute. If we weren't dealing with a pandemic, it would have been great to try more of the sauces and salsas. There was oddly not an option online to add guacamole to the burrito, but I would still eat here again! read more

Pretty disappointing. Food was not authentic Mexican. Only Americans put rice and beans INSIDE their burritos. And the tortilla was right out of a package -- GUMMY, COLD and RAW! Never even touched a hot pan before being wrapped around my steak. Everything except the meat was cold. The lettuce, tomato, onions and sour cream were better paired with an American Burger. The only Mexican condiment was the jalepeno. Where was the fresh avocado? Guacamole was available. so I took that, but not quite the same. Where were the pickled carrots and onions? And no fresh limes to squeeze for the tangy garnish? I visited at lunchtime in Florida in July and was looking forward to a cold drink. The "Iced" tea I received was served HOT! They said it was just brewed and then offered me more ice, so by the time it was cooled down it was also watered-down. Here's a thought -- maybe brew it the night before, and stick it in the cooler (instead of just before the lunch rush.) And the sauces -- they taste and have the consitency of store bought, gel-based sauces -- definitely NOT authentic mexican sauces from around the country. And who is looking, for super-sugary Asian and Indian-inspired sauces at a Mexican Restaurant ?! Prices are expensive and the facilities were not well maintained. For e.g.the toilet paper in the ladies room was out , even though the dispenser can hold two of those 12" rolls, and both the soap and towel dispensers were falling off the wall. I told the Manager and she said there were a lot of homeless people who use the bathroom and they "do who knows what in there." (as if that somehow explains the poor maintainence? I have to disclose that I may be a bit biased as I lived for decades in San Diego, CA, which is right next to Tijuana, Mexico. There are tons of taco places, burrito shops, and other restaurants with authentic MExican cuisine. But Tijuana Flats did nothing to remind me of any of them. It's just another Americanized, overly carb and sugar-ridden interpretation of what should have been delicious cuisine. This was my first visit (and probabaly my last visit. : ( read more

Terrible waited 20 minutes to try to order food and still no one was at the front had to leave

The food used to be much better but seems to have gone downhill a bit. The rice was undercooked and made my whole bowl crunchy and off putting. read more

One of my favorite chains and couldn't resist stopping when I was in town on vacation. The food was prepared quickly and the employees were friendly. There's plenty of parking and the food was delicious. Can't ask for any more! read more

I've been to more than a few tijuana flats but was the most disappointed by this one. I don't know if they are still working out the kinks of being new to the area. But some work needs to be done. First it seemed as if the rude staff that was cleaning the tables was doing it.with a dirty rag. There was a strange odor after she wiped them down. My mom ordered a taco and it was super greasy. Like yuck..I had the flautas and asked for half beef and had chicken...and they mixed it together... it what I asked for. Brought it to their attention and they corrected it but cheated on the chips I had on the plate from before :( Hopefully they it together so they we can return read more

Only giving it a one stars because of the quesadilla but the chicken bowl was garbage please stay away and tbh the quesadilla was oily.

This used to be my go to lunch spot for a chimichanga. Quality of food and cleanliness of restaurant has really gone downhill over the last year. During last visit, the Queso was chunky- like cottage cheese. Guessing it had been heated and reheated enough that it was congealing or taking on it's former form of oil laden fat molecules. There were small gnats or fruit flies flying around the taco bar and the majority of tables were dirty- which was odd as the place was relatively empty. The single front of house employee was sitting on a counter talking to what appeared to be a manager. This was the third strike for this location. Looking elsewhere for my weekly chimi fix. read more

we come here a lot and we love one of the girls that work there ! but tonight my wife went to pick up and the staff was incredibly rude. how are you going to tell me I can only get 1 hot sauce togo for each of my meals?! we've never had a problem with this place which is why we go so much and as someone in the service industry I'd never treat a regular let alone a respectful person like that , especially over something so simple as hot sauce. do better. read more

I do takeout on Taco Tuesdays and they are good size tacos but too Americanized. They do give you chips but it's a dollar to get a small container of bland salsa. Any other Mexican restaurant that serves chips comes with salsa so that's my beef with this place. read more

Will and Bri helped me with my to go order since my wife is in the hospital soon to deliver our baby girl. Food was good up to par but the service was out of this world. Definitely refreshing being a newer resident. Will be coming back next time I'm on this side of town. read more

We had take out while on vacation. The shrimp quesadillas were delicious! The salsa and hot sauce were both very flavorful. Portions were generous. read more

Terrible customer service. There was 3 people ordering. My food came out first but I wanted To Go. So they took it back to the kitchen. Then made me wait 25 mins. Now I have cold To Go food. read more

Awesome employees put this place a step above the rest. Always so nice and helpful. Come here once or twice a week and no matter who is working, they're always so nice. Even once when an entire bus of basketball kids showed up, I was still greeted with a smile and the same cheerful demeanor when I came and got my ToGo. read more

We tried this place out for the first time yesterday. The atmosphere was great. The prices were very reasonable. The service was fast.

Came here on taco Tuesday. Even as busy as they were I got excellent, quick, friendly service!! I will be back to eat here again!!! Really seems they care about customer service! read more

Customer service is on point at this location. Sam in particular is always so sweet and helpful. I also love the atmosphere, it's fun and colorful. My only issue was the chicken. I got a chicken quesadilla and my boyfriend got the chicken burrito, the chicken was a little questionable.. tasted like prepacked/precooked chicken. I will definitely be back just will stay away from the chicken. read more

The company responded asking me too send an email so they could look into it. I sent an email that same day and included the receipt for my order and a photo of my food showing that I didn't get what I had ordered. I never received a response. read more

Waited like 25 mins for 2 tacos to go, watched everyone who ordered AFTER me get served.. finalllyyyyy asked what's up with my order just to find out it was put in the wrong place and had been sitting in the wrong area for god knows how Long.. YAY for cold food and being late for work read more

Always wanted to try this place as I've had friend rave about it in the past, I give it three stars and that being because the food was blah and boring and almost tasteless. My burrito had a lot of beans inside and it was mushy. The queso was okay. Kind of gritty. My kids like the kids meals, because they came with m&ms. But the service was exceptional. Manager was walking around offering refills seeing if we needed anything. I wish the service was enough to bring me back. Maybe if I do come back I'll try something different. read more

Food is consistently good. Service is good to. We do take out from here pretty regularly. They have good deals on Tuesday and Thursday. The management is consistently wandering the restaurant asking if patrons need anything else. read more

I've been to a lot of TFlats but this one is ALWAYS rocking it. The food always is fresh and they keep it so clean! Way to go team! They have an amazing manager, Kristen, who is always kicking butt in there. All the register girls are always smiling and welcome! Their busiest days are Tuesday Thursday and Saturday! Tuesday and Thursday they have yummy lunch deals and for how busy they are, you are never waiting long to order or get your food! Way to go TFlats at 192 and Babcock! read more

No service issues. Ate at TF a few years back and wasn't impressed. Decided to try the new one out here because my toddler loves tacos. But- our bill was $35. There was almost nothing in our pork chimis, and our burrito had almost no meat but gag inducing amounts of guac. Such a ripoff. Will not be back. read more

Food's as good as ever. Would have scored them higher, but it was lunch rush and they only had one person taking orders. Really slowed it down. read more

Rude employee who told me that I should bring my own Mae Ploy from home because I was using too much. The tacos were not worth the insulting employee. Won't be bringing my three friends back. read more

Love this place! Great fresh tasting food, great customer service, and a wide variety of sauces. My favorites are the dos tacos, crunchy, with the chipotle chicken, or the bangin chicken burrito. read more

Fresh and consistently top shelf clearly the best of ALL of the local Tijuana Flat's in the area. Friendly and attentive staff, personable yet professional. Management maintains equilibrium and optimal output without hovering ;^) Great specials and a hot sauce bar that can truly peel your wig back! Proceed with caution a gleeful open mind...hot sauce bar, enjoy the eclectic beer selection. A good time will be had by all. read more

I love the girls that work that are so young and full of life and then I come in with my kids and she just makes our whole dinner better everytime! I live across the street so we eat there alot. read more

I came here while on vacation and I was pretty disappointed. I love trying new places, but this place wasn't as good as I thought it would be. It wasn't horrible, but definitely could use a lot more flavor which is probably why they they really push their "hot bar", which consists of sauces, onto their customers. read more

The tacos came highly recommended by a local, so being from Ohio we had to stop in. The food was delicious and came out fast. The customer service from Kyle was above and beyond the expected. He made it a highlight of our trip. We really enjoyed sampling the sauces and it was a great way to taste our favorite before putting in on our entre. We will definitely be back again. read more
