Carne asada torta was really good too
Elena M.

Food was delicious. The service was fast and fresh. After a trip to the zoo we needed some sustenance. This place is about 8 minutes away from the zoo. We had a party of 11 and were seated quickly on a Saturday afternoon. My cousin's husband wanted me to let everyone know that they don't sell alcohol. The vibe was very casual. We found parking at the back of the restaurant. We all ordered different things and everything was delicious. Yes, these tacos do taste like the ones in Tijuana. The quesobirria tacos were scrumptious.

Taco Tuesday, all tacos are $2 on Tuesday, normally $3.10. It is definitely worth a visit anytime, but to save $1.10 on every taco on Tuesday is really a delight! I got a fried pork, spiced pork and beef cheek taco. The tacos are street taco style. each taco came with minced onion, cilantro and guac , and some lime on the side. They are wrapped so nicely in sandwich wrapping paper. The corn tortillas are warm, flexible and fresh tasting. The red and green salsa served on the side are very spicy. I also got a side of refried beans which I liked a lot because it also seemed to be cooked to perfection. Located at Q & 24, there is a small parking lot behind the restaurant. Pro Tip, you order with your wait staff at the table, and they give you a check number. When you are ready to leave, take your check number to the front desk. This is really efficient, so you can settle your bill on your own time, and not have to wait for the wait staff to bring your bill, run your cash or card, wait some more ... I like this business model for fast casual dining. I've started my 24 Ave S food tour starting at Q and ending up at Cuming. I am looking at non-chain places to eat. I am convinced 24 Ave S is one of the most delicious streets in all of Omaha.

Chips and Guacamole
Ka'ili H.

It was a Tuesday and I had this overwhelming craving for some delicious Mexican food! I enjoy Mexican but this was the first time I actually had a craving only a good sit down meal would quench. I marched downstairs and as polite as I could I woke my boyfriend up to help me fulfill my stomach's current meal dream. Luckily, he remembered it was Tuesday and knew we had to head to this highly recommended restaurant in South Omaha. In a few minutes we were headed there. As soon as we stepped in we knew something good was going to be had. We were seated promptly and given menus. I ordered 3 Chicken street tacos and one Asada and my boyfriend ordered 4 asada and 3 carnitas. Unfortunately, they were out of chicken so I ordered all Asada with the queso cheese. On Tuesdays here the tacos are $2 each. We also ordered some chips with guacamole to tie us over until our dinner. The guac was a smooth tip that tasted fresh and wonderful. The chips were just as delicious and we loved enjoying this before our main meal. Our server came back in a pretty timely matter and tacos looked perfect! Each with a good portion of our choice of protein along with toppings, radish on the side and limes. We were both famished at this point as we salivated at the presentation in front of us. I absolutely loved the asada tacos! They were filling, delicious, and had the perfect amount of avocado and cheese on top! I know I already want to go back!! My boyfriend also enjoyed his different taco choices. He noted the flavor profiles for each meat were delicious! It was a first time for both of us visiting this Taqueria Tijuana and we already know we want to come back again, especially on a Tuesday!! Parking was easy to find parking on the road across the street. The staff greeted us as we walked in, the dining areas were clean and tended to pretty quickly. Our server was kind and professional. If you enjoy street tacos and authentic Mexican food, I highly recommend checking out this gem for their $2 tacos on Tuesday! But, their delicious food probably extends beyond their tacos as well!

My boyfriend and I visit Taqueria Tijuana all the time. It's our favorite spot for tacos. I'm pretty picky about authentic tacos, and this place is the one that reminds me the most of home. I've tried a lot of their meats and they're always great. My favorite are asada and adobada! We also love Taco Tuesday since they have good specials. Also, I am a big fan of their horchata, just perfect every time. The service is always friendly and the food never disappoints. Parking can be a bit tough depending on how busy it is, but always worth it!

Went for the first time and felt it was more authentic than many places in Omaha. Some of the meats were a bit dry but they had flavorful salsas and fresh toppings. Good service.

Pork belly taco
Dianna W.

Good customer service . This branch is more roomy . We reserved a table for 7-8 people . I want to try their beef tongue taco but it is available only on weekends . I tried their beef cheeks taco and pork belly taco with rice and beans . The tacos are very good . The bean is refined but lack of taste and no melted cheese inside . My friends order some Mexican rice drink and a grapefruit drinks. All taste great!! Would like to come back to try other menu items next time .

Tacos

Authentic, delicious, and fast. We love this spot! The food is always on point, service is great, and the atmosphere is perfect for a little taco spot. Highly recommend.

Did a pit stop taco break on our road trip and man we were not disappointed by taqueria Tijuana - service was great, we ordered right away and it didn't take long for our food to come out. The tacos were fire! Small tortillas jam packed with meat and guacamole - oof my mouth is watering just thinking about it. Know when you order any extras or sides it's quite a hearty amount. The agua frescas were delicious as well.

Carne and chicken tacos
Malika C.

I wanted to like this more than I actually did. The chicken was flavorful but the rest of the meats were very dry. The burrito was pretty dry and tasteless and I threw half of my $50 order away. Bummer. Pina was good as always but I can't see myself coming back for anything else. The birria was a little spicy for my taste and didn't even include consommé. Was a letdown for me personally

Al Pastor Sope w/ Queso
Ayele O.

I went back to Taqueria Tijuana for the first time in over 5 years, so I figured I should update my last review. This time I had the al pastor sope, a carne asada taco, and the horchata once more. Our group did an order of chips and queso as well. The taco was everything I expected from a street taco, the Al pastor was right on, and the horchata did not disappoint. I would probably not get the chips and queso again. It tasted fine, just was not anything worth getting again. Overall the food was good, the server was great, and the noise level was great for conversations.

Exactly the taco spot I've been searching for! I got three tacos, a drink and chips for under $20. Yes yes yes! I knew the tacos would be good when I saw the double tortilla! The meat was cooked and seasoned to perfection. I got them to go and they were still in tact upon arrival at home... a huge feat for togo tacos. The salsas are delicious and chips were fresh. They included limes and radishes in the order which I appreciated. Such a cute, clean atmosphere, too. Was pretty busy but we didn't wait long at all. All the staff we interacted with were so very sweet and friendly. Pretty sure they will know me by name soon, they've earned a new regular.

Asada, sopes, carnitas, beef cheek,

Since it was, the staff member took the time to explain how ordering works: grab a menu, decide what you'd like, and then return to the counter when you're ready to place your order. While looking over the menu, I noticed they had a "secret menu" featuring birria ramen, which is one of my favorites. I decided to order that along with a passion fruit margarita. The margarita was refreshing and tasted great, but for $11, the portion size felt a bit small. For the birria ramen, I added mushrooms and green onions for an additional $2.50, which I didn't mind paying. However, when the dish arrived, I was surprised by how little broth it contained. There was barely enough to qualify as ramen, which was disappointing. In fact, there was so little broth that I found myself wondering why I had even been given a spoon! That said, the flavors were excellent, and the service was outstanding. While the small drink size and lack of broth in the ramen were letdowns, the overall experience was still positive. I'll definitely be back--and next time, I'll be sure to ask for extra broth!
