    Packed!

    Standard T-Flats. Big fan, of all the Tex-Mex places, T-Flats is the best. The only thing about this location is the layout. Don't like it. Too much going on around the registers (seating, hot sauce bar, people waiting to order, traffic to go sit outside, traffic to go to the restroom). Just saying.

    Tijuana Flats, Cleveland Ave., Ft. Myers, Fl., Here is my 2 cents on the food and chatter. I was in the mood for a taco but settled for enchiladas. So I decided to try this place The best things first. Outstanding staff. Very helpful. Plus a believe it or not a hot & spicy sauce bar. Who would have known this of all things in Florida. Now the food. $6 bucks seems to be the average price here. Which is a good thing. Since Floridians have horrible taste buds this is a great thing. The food is terrible with massive amount of SODIUM...For Floridian this means SALT. Just too much. Now I know why they have this hot sauce bar. It covers the salty food. Never more for me...Though I do not have any health issue with salt. It just taste bad.

    Went in here for lunch and had the Taco Tuesday deal, two tacos with your choice of filling, a drink, and chips for under $6 -- what a deal! The girl at the counter with the colored hair was super friendly and helpful, explaining all of our options and being very patient with us. They brought our order to the table and I noticed all the hot sauces off to the side. You get to pick amongst 15 different ones. I tried the 3 hottest and my favorite was the Pyromania. Make sure you have a cold drink handy! The Tacos were cooked perfectly, one was blackened chicken, which was good, but you could get tired of the taste pretty quick. The other was the regular chicken which was amazing. The chips were a little too dark, but tasted pretty good. Trying it with all the different sauces was fun. The place was very clean and colorful, and nice bathrooms too. I like the high tables to eat your meal at.

    This was our second visit to Tijuana Flats, and we were not disappointed. We appreciate that we can easily make vegan options from several things on the menu. They had a local beer on tap, and gave us a generous sample to try before deciding to commit to a glass of it. It was a great IPA, yes please! A quick trip the the sauce area, and our food was ready. Hot Wife felt that the chips on her plate were stale, but wasn't planning on eating them anyway. She did like her burrito, with fresh tomato, onions, peppers included. The norrito bowl was good, but I wanted chips to try with the many sauces to try, and went to order a side, but the nice young woman at the counter gave them to me no charge, a nice big basket of them! I ended up eating half of the norrito bowl with the chips, kind of like nachos with the tasty sauces on top. One thing I still don't get about Tijuana Flats is the tiny thimbles for the sauces. If you like one you can either drench your food in it with the pumps, or keep going back every 2 seconds to refill your thimble. I understand the idea, sample lots of sauces without being wasteful, but once you choose one.... Hot Wife also says they need reusable plates and real silverware. Much more environmentally friendly, and since they clean your tables (there aren't trash cans to throw away your own stuff) it seems like an easy fix. Same thing with the beer, real pint glasses would be nice, not the plastic. Hopefully Tijuana Flats recycles, but I digress. Hungry? Want a nice variety of food for every diet needs? Go to Tijuana Flats! The employees are very friendly and helpful as well.

    Another favorite "fast food" place around here. This location however was set up weird. I didn't like the layout of the cash registers being on the side, very confusing and too much of a high traffic area. I get the crunchy Dos Tacos every time with beef. I love the "Smack My A** and Call Me Sally" sweet chili sauce. Will be coming back soon as it is right by my new apartment.

    Dos mahi tacos
    Robbie C.

    Can't figure out all the glowing reviews. This is like the macdonalds of Tex mex only over priced. Could go to an authentic fine Mexican restaurant for the cost of this very bland food. And this coming from someone that doesn't even like numb your gums hot n spicy, but I do appreciate tasty spices. The guac had zero flavor. I wanted to get a mahi taco and veggie burrito, but the order taker couldn't figure out how to enter into cash register. Oy! No bueno. Ok, so I just got the dos tacos. Flavorless even with the sauce they put on it. They give you chips with it but if you want salsa or guac it is an upcharge. Four of us ate and all said same. Pretty flavorless and bland. Shouldn't have to use tongue numbing sauces to add flavor.

    I am usually not a fan of chains or fast Mexican food. But this is a solid choice for a good price meal hat is quick but fresh. This particular location can get really busy, especially on Tuesdays and Thursdays when they have some really good specials going. Busy means crowded parking lot and hard to find a seat. Despite being busy the food comes out quick Lots of variety to the menu and as others have mentioned the Hot Bar is fabulous addition! The Tijuana trio is a must for our table because we like the crispy chips and all the dips to start the meal off! I have had the tacos, burritos, salads and quesadillas. Lots of choices for meats and toppings! TIP: You can order ahead online to skip the line; they offer party platters and also do catering.

    Enjoy the ambiance of street graffiti, bumper stickers and neon lights. The food isn't bad at all and there is something on the menu for anyone. Love the street feel and the cold beer on tap. Love the variety on the hot sauce bar, pleasing to every palate. I had the taco salad with the blackened chicken with the avacado dressing, yum!. My son had the beef burrito and it was so fully packed with every item imaginable. Before you leave the Flautas are a must have!!! Wow just wow, party in your mouth!!! I Nuff said. Get there and don't forget dessert!!! Wow just wow!!!

    Always on the look out for the local Mexican restaurant that we haven't tried. Tres Amigos was on…read morethe list and didn't disappoint. Tucked in the shopping plaza at Winkler / Gladiolus in Ft Myers, this cute and cozy spot has easy access to and from the beach and close to Health Park hospital. There are booths and a few tables for seating and to-go orders were available and certainly popular on our visit. The decor was festive and soft Mexican music played in the background. Bottled Mexican sodas, can sodas and beer are available. We chose sodas and chips and salsa to start as we scanned the menu. Please note, this is not like going to a typical American Mexican restaurant were chips and salsa come complimentary; you'll pay for a basket of fresh, hot, crispy tortilla chips and a 3 types of fresh salsa : green, spicy red and a creamy green. All were exceptional and fresh. Hubby ordered combo fajitas; beef and chicken. It came with a generous side of beans, rice and tortillas. I ordered the chicken flautas which also came with a side of beans and rice. Fajitas; meats were juicy and vegetables were cooked perfect. The flour tortillas were homemade and perfect taco size. Chicken flautas were crispy with a nice helping of shredded lettuce and cream sauce atop. We both enjoyed the refried beans and rice. Although my only complaint would be a bit more seasoning as I did use salt. Service was friendly, swift and efficient. The restaurant was tidy and clean. Definitely an easy laid back vibe. Can't wait for our next visit; I eyed the chicken nachos and they looked divine!

Only con in my opinion is that it is on the pricy side for street tacos. I would say it is more of a take out spot but they do have plenty of seating.

When Mr.Roberto greeted us it truly felt like he was welcoming us into his home. We were seated and I ordered a lime house margarita and the jalapeño queso to start. The margarita blew me out of the water. It was so delicious I had to stop myself from getting another one (maybe on the weekend hehehe) the queso came out warm and Cheesey just how you want it! They give chips and salsa to start. Three types in a bottle and a pico type in a container. This is wonderful for me because I am a little baby when it comes to spice so I enjoyed the flavorful mild (green) while my boyfriend was a fan of the dark red really spicy one! For our mains we both got tacos he got the carne asada soft shell taco combo which came with three and I got the taco supreme which came with 2 mine were hard shell with a layer of cheese and then a soft shell. I really appreciate how they use shredded cheese on the tacos I got- it was very authentic and reminded me of actual Mexican food from Mexico and not this east coast Mexican food I can't seem to get away from in FL! We finished off the night with the flaun which was creamy and the perfect way to end this feast. We had to go boxes when we left and a beautiful heartfelt conversation with Mr.Roberto. He was full of pride, kindness, and personality. He made sure to visit every table and the atmosphere made me never want to do a to go order because then you'd be missing out of all the immaculate vibes. I can't wait to go back!

I went with a selection of tacos - asada, chorizo and pollo. The chorizo was my favorite. They make their own salsa in three levels of spice. My favorite was the mild. It was creamy and flavorful.

Andre was highly attentive during our stay, yet also gave us the time and respect to make menu choices and eat our appetizer before we ordered our meal. Andre made the guacamole tableside, asking if we were OK with all of the ingredients, which we were happy to include. I love that the guacamole was fresh and plentiful.
