Always good and Mateo blends a great skinny margarita Combination plate is generous and plenty to take home for another meal
Decided to give them another chance and I'm glad I did. They are now officially on my "would return" (4+ stars) list-- at least for CERTAIN items. Let me tell you what in my experience they do well: carne asada, burgers (surprisingly!), guacamole, the salsas (mild and "spicy") and service. The kids' meal was a full sized burger and the patty was thick, juicy, and really flavorful. The kids meal was a good value because my two young children were able to share the burger and fries with how large the portion was. DON'T expect to be impressed with the following items: al pastor, beans, chips... The al pastor was unlike any I had ever had before. It was a vibrant red and the flavor REALLY reminded me of Chinese bbq pork-- specifically, the seasoning packets you can buy. The beans don't do it for me (they are missing that savory umami note of salt and lard that I crave from Mexican refried beans so much). Ambiance is alight. It has been quiet when we've come so that's been nice.
It was so good that I ordered enough for my lunch tomorrow and had enough to go. One of our favorite places definitely must try and Mateo. He is a wonderful server. Always finally all the stuff is great if you want more chips and salsa, they bring it very attentive.
Great service, even when short staffed our waitress was so willing to correct anything we didn't like! She was awesome! The food was a mixed experience. The chips were served hot which was lovely. I really enjoyed my quessabirria. My husband did both enjoy his pastor meat, but the carne asada was good! Large portions! Seating was comfortable, and a relaxed spot for lunch.
Service was 5 Star! It was Mother's Day and an adorable little girl was hanging out carnations. Food was good as usual along with salsa and margaritas. Excited to see the outdoor patio has opened up too. It's also helpful to have a good happy hour, that makes it more affordable.
A couple of my friends and I stopped by this place yesterday. I've been meaning to try this place out for a while since they opened. The place was full, probably because it was lunch time. We were greeted as we came through the door and seated immediately. We looked through the menu. There were a lot of things I wanted to try but I settled for my unusual bean and cheese burrito. The place was decorated nicely. My buddy, who is Mexican, explained to us what the paintings on the walls were. Interesting. Our server was very nice and friendly. She was even sort of entertaining. The service was great. We got our orders after a few minutes. The plate was hot. It looked like the food was served on a ceramic plate. Authentic. My burrito looked awesome but it tasted just ok. To me it was sort of bland. I don't know. I'm comparing it to a Roberto's bean and cheese burrito. It didn't taste bad but it didn't grab me. I guess I was expecting more flavor for a fancy bean burrito. I liked that they had a roasted jalapeño on the side. Overall, my experience there was great. The bean burrito was ok. Maybe I'll try something else next time. I kind of want to try one of their strawberry margaritas.
I'm a big fan of Mexican cuisine, and Taco Tijuana Cantina didn't disappoint. Plenty of seating and staff, so even on the busiest of days they can accommodate a couple or a big banquet. We enjoyed our meals and had plenty to take home. The menu must list over 30 items, from seafood to beef with all the regulars chicken and pork etc. Our waiter (Carlos) was above and beyond good. He was tentative to our needs; must have filled our waters three times. The food came out hot and appealing. With their extensive menu it's guaranteed you'd find something you would enjoy there. Oh, and their happy hour is between 2:30 and 5:30 with drinks (cocktails) AND meals 40% off.
Good food, I gotta go back during the happy hours! What a deal And huge burritooooooooooo (light on the meat tho)
Great service and good breakfast burrito. Mine came with ham, scrambled eggs, cheese with a side of rice and beans. They also included a roasted pepper that wasn't too spicy and a good addition to the meal. The restaurant was clean other than the bathroom that needed minor cleanup. I believe they run a good happy hour as well.
Overall, pretty good! Grabbed some lunch on the weekend here. We had some friends tell us about this restaurant and we figured we would also give it a try. Our waitress was nice and made sure we were always taken care of. Chips and salsa arrived quickly. The salsa was really good and has a slight kick to hit. The tortilla chips were really stale though. I ordered an asada street taco. Delicious! The decorative plates were a nice touch well. Bathrooms were pretty dirty and the soap had water in it. They have a wonderful happy hour. I attached a photo of it, but it's begins everyday at 2:30! Would love to come back and try out some more menu options as well as their outdoor patio.
Came here before 5:30pm and was surprised they had happy hour pricing of 40% off all drinks and entrees. Carne asada tacos and casibrillas were
Enjoyed checking out the "new for me" Mexican restaurant and cantina. Passed the "chips and salsa" phase 1 test with a large amount of appetizer tortilla chips and a delicious just right spiced salsa. I enjoyed a chile relleno and taco combination and shared a michelada, which was delicious. Busier on a lunchtime Sunday, but not loud and a quite pleasant dining atmosphere. Service was quick. Marking this place down as one for many returns. Happy hour specials and right around the corner from home base.
This was my first time trying Tacos Tijuana and, unlike the name implies, I had the steak fajita burrito smothered in green sauce instead of tacos. I was impressed with the portion sizes, their selection of margarita flavors, and happy hour, which is 40% entire menu from 2:30pm to 5:30pm every day. Their menu also features breakfast, kids meals, value meals, and dessert. Now onto the burrito, it was stuffed and smothered, the large portion that left me also stuffed and smothered. This was seasoned well, and the steak was sliced tenderly. Each entree came with rice and beans, the usual, as well as chips and house salsa. Although we came in too early for the happy hour, I will definitely be coming back to try it!

We were looking for getting some Mexican food to go but decided to dine in at Tacos Tijuana Cantina. Ambience: clean, bright, tastefully decorated. Service was prompt and super friendly. We appreciate the speed in which the chips and salsa were brought to our table. We were hungry. The two street taco combo came with a grilled jalapeno. A nice touch! The rice and beans were really good. The al pastor and carne asada were a little on the bland side. The steak enchilada and chilli relleno were so flavorful. We will definitely go for these again. Overall, we'll be back. Convenient location with plenty of parking. Might have to try other items on the menu. read more

Stopped by as I work and live close to this place and had previously ordered to-go but never sat in. At first we were met with a friendly waitress who seated us and brought out chip & salsa and a couple of ice waters. The restaurant was highly decorated for Christmas, a man was setting up for Loteria, a few tables were filled of other customers and Selena played almost the entire time we were there -- pretty on par with what I expect for a Mexican restaurant during this time of year. My boyfriend and I ordered two margaritas, a raspberry (YUM) and a mango, both were delicious, their menu also included guava and strawberry which seems equally delicious. I ordered the quesabirria and my boyfriend ordered the steak fajita burrito covered in green sauce. His burrito was amazing! The steak was so tender and seasoned well, I was jealous I didn't order a burrito myself! The tacos were good, not the best quesabirria in my life but up there in flavor and taste. Each plate came with beans, rice, and a jalapeño. Overall, we were stuffed by the time our waitress checked in on us and since we were seated so close to the register, we were able to cash out fast. Compared to my to-go experience, the food is much better eaten inside and seated! read more

5/5 Stars Had a great experience here. The food was great, the staff were friendly and welcoming, and the portions were very generous. The pricing was also very reasonable, making it an excellent value overall. This is definitely on my list of places to visit again the next time I'm in Reno. Great experience all around. read more

Omg the food was great but the postres! Tres leches and flan was amazing. Best margarita on ice in town. Staff was on point and welcoming. Service was great. Food tasted like abuela was in charge. Authentic. Loved the background sound tracks. read more
This is my family's go-to mexican restaurant. It is some really good sit down mexican food. I had the Birria plate and it was quite good. Well seasoned and still juicy. I am a sucker for beans and rice, it is down really well here. The waitstaff is very friendy and helpful explaining the items on the menu and helping us decide what to get. It has a slightly modern vibe, its not the dark cantina you may be used to. read more

I really want to like this place. The service was very slow to start--no one came to our table for almost 10 minutes. Once someone finally did, things improved. We ordered the queso fundido with chorizo, which was good and easy to scoop up with chips. I also tried the pozole soup--huge portion, but not a lot of flavor and it had multiple big bones to fish out. This was my second visit, and while there are some good things, it still hasn't wowed me. read more
Came back here for our favorite Mexican happy hour. Always excellent service here. I was sad to find out they longer have the family meals on the happy hour deal though. We still had a great meal and the staff joined in celebrating my Dad's birthday with a song. They were open through our recent snow storm. I love coming here and will keep coming back. read more

Mediocre food that took forever to get. There were 7 total seated tables in the whole restaurant and we still waited 40 mins for our food. The chips seem like store bought which is disappointing. The al pastor is cubed and dry with little flavor. The beans were not great. The rice was ok. The enchilada was decent as was the carnitas street taco. Overall, not that good and certainly not worth the wait. Our hunt for good Mexican food in Reno continues. read more

We went back on Saturday night to play Loteria, which is played like Bingo. What a fun night! Loteria Night is usually every 2 weeks at 7:30p (call for next date). There are lots of winners and alot of prizes. We left with a $15 Gift Card and a bottle of Tequila. Tonight I wasn't as hungry, so I ordered a Chile Relleno, but the order came with Two, as well as rice, beans and Tortillas. It was more food than I was hoping to get, but no worries because I had the leftovers for breakfast the next day. By the way, the Chile Relleno was very tasty and I'm picky when it comes to Chiles Rellenos. I also can't rave enough about the service. It's consistently excellent and everyone is so attentive. After playing Loteria, the fun continued with Social Dancing to the sounds of a DJ playing Bachata, Salsa and other Latin Rhythms. Also, for those of you that don't know how to dance, you'll be happy to know they also had dance lessons. Really fun night!!! read more

After driving by this plane for two years, I finally tried it in June and have been back twice since. Tacos Tijuana Cantina has a great happy hour special that runs from 2:30 pm - 5:30 pm every day of the week and everything on the menu is 40% off. Your meal starts off with complementary chips and salsa. The salsa might be the best salsa I have ever had and is spicy. I am a big fan of the Enchilada Suiza, but the Chicken Chimichanga is a close second. Every plate comes with rice and beans, which are also delicious. I have ordered a blended guava margarita every time I have gone and have not been disappointed. It's the perfect drink for a hot summer day. The service here is also fantastic, which is the cherry on top of an already great dining experience. I will definitely be back many more times! read more
We came here on a Saturday night a little after 6 pm and we're seated promptly. We were brought our drinks, chips and salsa promptly. The salsa was a little spicy but pretty good. We ordered the bean dip and salsa, which was a green salsa. The bean dip was really good. Refried beans with broiled cheese on top was fabulous. And the green salsa was less spicy and had a good flavor. I ordered The Steak and Shrimp, probably ly the best shrimp I have had. They are a large size and delicious. I could eat an entire plate of them! The steak was good too. The other dishes our table ordered were also good! Our server was very attentive, friendly and helpful! The restaurant is in a rectangular orange building and it's super cute inside. Will put this on the list of restaurants I love! read more
The food was excellent especially my son's steak! The service was wonderful and the restaurant looked good and comfortable! Only two complaints; first coke had no syurp and tasted badly but they fixed it, secondly we arrived at 2:15 pm and their special of 40% off of everything didn't start until 2:30-5:00pm! I overheard other customers who walked in the same time get that price and they were there before us! read more
If you didn't know, Tacos Tijuana Cantina offers a daily happy hour between 2:30 pm and 5:30 pm, with 40% off on their entire drink and food menu. Their food is always delicious, and the portion sizes are huge. My favorite food are the shrimp platters. On this day I sat at the bar and was promptly attended (with a greeting and smile) by the Bartender and another staff member, while nice Mexican music played in the background. If you love Mexican Loteria (Lottery) or if you are interested in learning how to play this fun game, I recommend you stop by on Loteria Weekend. They'll give you a prize if you win, and many people do win! read more

Unexpectedly great meal at tacos tijuana cantina. The interior is on the elevated side for a taqueria, nice booths and very spacious. The portions are super hearty- I got 2 very flavorful tacos and loved that you can mix and match! The al pastor was my favorite it was so well spiced and flavored- lots of meat. The food tastes incredibly fresh and homemade. Amazing price point only $11 for two big tacos beans and side salad. The mole was yummy, the service was friendly, can't say anything bad it's perfect for when you're craving Mexican food in a more elevated setting. The flan for dessert was heavenly, not too sweet great texture perfect way to end the meal! read more

The service and food is always excellent. The Art of AL Pastor is a great thing to share with 2-4 people, but I would suggest extra pineapple for anything over three tacos. The breakfast items were also great, the hot chilaquiles is no joke! The Tortilla Soup is epic. It will fill you up! read more
