    Heavily salted chips.
    Loke K.

    Haven't been here in a long time. Food quality keeps going down. Tonight I got the taco special, one chicken and one ground beef taco. The beef was so greasy that the grease was all over the tray and the chicken taco was wet and made the hard shell useless. The chips on the plate were so greasy I didn't even attempt to eat one. I told 2 people about the chips and no one offered me some fresh chips. I asked that my to go chips do not look like the ones served with the meal...Good news is they were not greasy. Bad news is they are so heavily covered in salt you have to brush off every chip to eat them. Disappointing visit to this location. I give it a one taco rating!

    If you like small, cold, bland, flavorless burritos then this is for you

    This was just all bad. I got to curbside and had to call to have my food brought out. I drove away before checking it and realized they forgot half my order so I went back. They gave me an extra bag of chips which was nice but they were so stale I just threw them out. The salsa was flavorless and had a weird after taste to it. Like it was full of preservative. The guac is out of a can. It's nasty. The cheese sauce is also processed fake cheese out of a can and it wasn't even hot. And the burrito was a whole Nother catastrophe. The tortilla was ice cold as soon as I picked it up and so is everything that was inside of it. At the bottom of the burrito were about 10 slices of jalapeños which I was OK with until I bit into them and realize that they didn't have any spice to them. So I'm assuming that those aren't freshly cut either. I don't think that I'll ever go back to Tijuana Flats again. I hate to say it but I think that Taco Bell has a better shot at getting my money for a burrito in the near future

    This is not the best place for authentic Mexican cuisine.... but what really is anymore.. The parking is great as it's in its own lot! The staff are awesome all the time! Now... I had the Cheeseburger tacos. Holy Holy tacos they were!! Cheeseburger Taco with traditional Tex-Mex flair! classic Americana influence that includes pickles, ketchup, and mustard! This think tastes like a cheeseburger on a crispy bun. It was one of the best tacos I have had! The fries are your standard fair but good none the less... especially dipped in queso! Go and try it before it's gone!

    Hot sauce bar...my favorite part :-)

    Ok no this not gourmet but it's also not fast food like taco bell but it's still good. I guess it's in the category of Chipolte grill or Moes grill, just a step above fast food. I might be a little biased because I'm a condiment girl, especially things that are hot...yup I liiike it hot! That being said they have a hot sauce in every Tijuana flat. So of course, that's a highlight for me. I do think they need to have little pencils and cards out so you mark the hot sauce you like so next time you know which one to get, kind of like a wine tasting but with a burn instead of a buzz.. I don't go to Tjuanna flats often but when I have been then I will tell you they are top of making sure the customers are happy. They greet you at the door, they come by your table to check on and are very friendly. On this visit they were cleaning the bottoms of the table, which is nice to see that they keep that place clean. Also the cashier was very nice and helpful. On to the food, I ordered chips and salsa ,the chips were hot but I'm not a big fan or their salsa, it was ok. I also ordered the chicken soft tacos power lite with the beans and rice. I've never had the beans and rice but they were really good. The only thing that I would say they could improve on, is to serve the chicken soft tacos hot. They are lukewarm and I would like the cheese to melt a little and it too be hot other then that it;s decent food.

    Kids meal and dos chicken tacos

    The food is decent at the very best. The kids meal was pathetic. My tacos tasted very old!

    I enjoyed the food and variety of hot sauces! Ended up ordering the chicken flautas. It was delicious and food came out at a decent time.

    After a great day of checking out an amazing and epic art museum and some cool rainy weather, we…read morewere in need of some delicious, comfort and yummy food. We wanted to eat something that would be filling, comforting, grab a few drinks but not necessarily need a whole sit down experience. So we stumbled upon Casita Taqueria. Thanks to the other awesome reviews, we knew this was the place to go! It literally feels like a casita when you walk in. They have lots of outdoor seating, picnic tables and such. Inside had a bit less seating (especially when it's raining and most of the people want to stay indoors). Either way, we found a table for 5 in no time. The ordering is easy, you go up to the register, order what you want and then they bring the food to you. No servers no waiters just easy. Highly recommend ordering a pitcher of margarita, we got the spicy jalapeño one and it was so refreshing! The food was delicious, freshly made, quick, and perfect for a lunch break. We got the tempeh nachos, rice and beans bowl, chips guac and salsa plus everything else the rest of our table got. We left full and our hearts happy! The ONLY THING I wish I would see was a super spicy house sauce. Which btw, they have a little fridge of their house made sauces for you to grab and enjoy. I just WISH there was a spicy one, the sweet one was pretty good!

    Love their food. I always get the chicken bowl with a side…read moreof chorizo and sour cream. Sometimes they have great soups. It's dog friendly which is a plus for us. The service is order at the counter and the food usually comes out quick. Inside seating is limited but lots of outdoor tables.

    Nueva Cantina is my neighborhood Mexican restaurant. The service is quick and the food is…read morescrumptious. My favorite is the burrito (carne asada or chicken) deep friend and topped with cheese. They are the most festive restaurant that comes to mind, and they always have creative drinks to go with the season. If there was a drawback, it would be parking, but I don't think it's bad enough to warrant diminishing the rating. Big shout out to Sheila who has served me and my fiancee a few times. She always takes great care of us, is so funny, and a warm spirit.

    Five stars for the food, four stars for the service…read more We came at around 6 PM on a Saturday, we were one of the only tables there, still the service was extremely slow. Whenever our waitress came by, we essentially had to order everything we could think of because we wouldn't see her again for a while. That meant that we were often without water. However, the food is great so I would still recommend this place as long as you have time to spare. My sister got the secret margarita my husband got a skinny margarita and I got a mango margarita. I wouldn't get the mango margarita again, it was way too sweet. My sister said her secret margarita wasn't too sweet, and my husband's skinny margarita was quite good. We started with the chips and three dip trio. If I'm coming with just the kids and my husband, I would probably stick to the queso only, because my son loved the queso. I found the guacamole just OK, so I wouldn't order it again. I'm not sure if any of us loved the salsa. The chips were pretty good though. My husband loves the Birria taco. Both kids like the quesadillas, but one son really likes the waffle fries so next time we should ask for two cheese quesadillas one with Spanish rice for my younger son and the other with waffle fries for my older son. He wasn't a fan of the chicken nuggets that they come with. We also got the taco platter which came with a choice of four different proteins, you get three tacos each. So we got the beef Barbacoa, the steak, the grilled chicken, and the grilled shrimp. I only tried the steak and the grilled shrimp and both were delicious. The grilled shrimp was a little spicy. We walked out stuffed and brought home five tacos and a ton of chips. I definitely will continue to recommend for the food and we will probably be back as long as we have enough time. They decorate like crazy for each holiday. I really enjoy the decor. Also they have a large parking lot around back so parking is a breeze.
