    2 Hard Chicken Tacos
    Marcy Y.

    I occasionally crave a Tijuana flats taco specifically! I used to work at this location in high school and bring back a lot of nostalgia. The food is just as good as I remember. The queso dip sauce is my favorite of all the quesos at other Mexican restaurants. What I like about Tijuana is that it's casual dine in, the entrees are all of reasonable portions. The tacos come in one, two or threes and you can do any combination of protein, and taco shells, and the entrees come with chips that can be upgraded with beans and rice for an up charge. The toppings offered are Jalapeños, Onions, Lettuce, Tomato, and Sour Cream. They also have a "Powerlite" option that provides a lower calorie sour cream and shredded cheese toppings. And if you are a hot sauce fanatic ( or just a sauce fanatic in general) then you'll love the hot sauce bar that has a range of non-hot, medium, and very spicy sauce options to bring to your table or to go. Service is usually very friendly and typically served by high school or college students. Love Tijuana Tex Mex!

    Chips,  queso, cookies and a non-existent drink took 45 minutes

    An order of queso, chips, cookies and a drink(which was missing from the order)took more than 45 minutes to prepare for an uber order. I called the restaurant the person that answered the phone looked up my order and told me it would be another 20-25 minutes because they were busy. As soon as I hung up the uber driver texted that he had been given my food and was on his way.

    I went to Tijuana flats for a quick lunch. The first time I went the service was meh. I went back and the service was better. I tried their chicken with bang bang sauce, taco, and churros. Chicken wings 9/10 The wings was delicious. It had nice favor and nice kick to it. Chips 10/10. Crispy and light. Really good Churros 4/10. I did not like the churros. It was dry to me. The space feels like a fast food spot. Nothing special. Should you visit? Yes! Try their wings. It delicious

    Overrall the food was decent. Upon arrival there were only a few other customers yet it got busy fast. The wait for the food to arrive was pretty long for everyone. My experience with the service was friendly and fast paced. The ambiance is very chill almost along the lines of fast food. Would come back to try something different and try their hot bar.

    Tacos were yummy! On Tuesday's the have a Taco Teusdaze deal with comes with two tacos, chips & a drink. I did get GAUC on the side which was okay, only downfall was that it was brown when I opened the lid. Other than that the food was good and I will definitely go back on Tuesdays to get this awesome deal. The Mae ploy sauce is my favorite.. it's a sweet chili sauce. Staff was nice and friendly.

    Tasty texmex eats. Loved Tijuana Flats way back when but haven't been for over a year. Why, because my last two experiences at a Tijuana Flats were not great. Not at this location but another nearby location. However recently I decided to give them another try at a different location, this one. It was like night and day between these two locations. This location is bright & clean. The staff is friendly and helpful. The food fresh. I ordered a chicken burrito and chicken quesadilla both with all the fixins to-go. Both were fresh, well prepared & packaged and delicious. They're located in a plaza with sufficient parking available. Will definitely visit this location again when I want my Tijuana Flats texmex fix ;)

    Very bright and vibrant place. Love the art. Super impressed with the sauce bar! So many options! I really love sauce. The Baja fish tacos were fresh and delicious. The chips were okay, but it was really all about the tacos! I'd definitely visit this location again to check out more from their menu.

    Oh my, great experience with delicious quick service Tex-Mex. I arrived just before the lunch rush and my order was taken quickly by a very nice gentleman. I liked that he verbally told me all the options I could have added to my blackened chicken salad. For a very small upcharge, I added a side of guacamole and a salsa along with my avocado ranch dressing. I mixed in a few shots of different hot sauces and I was in heaven. The other two girls who were back and forth behind the counter were quick to take orders, and when they were not ringing in orders, they were on the floor asking for drink refills or bussing tables. Everyone was very polite and seemed to like where they worked. They made me want to clear my own tray but I was told that it was best to just leave it behind and they would do it for me. All my food was delicious and I am looking forward to my next visit here for lunch.

    Today I went to the Lauderhill location for curbside pickup lunch. Overall, I'm just ok with the experience. I ordered my food via the app and it was very easy. They even sent me notifications that the order was received and the order is ready. I could also text them with my name and order number when I'm parked at the designation curbside pick up parking spot. Everything was going great. Total transparency with the process. Until I parked.... I texted them per instructions and waited... and waited. I saw employees inside doing other things but no one acknowledged me. Mind you. I was parked directly in front of the establishment. I ended up calling the place to talk to someone and tell her I was outside and am waiting. The employee was really nice and promptly brought my food out. Not sure what happened. If no one was monitoring the system that notifies employees I was here, or no one looked up to see a car pull up. Something was missed in execution. Anyhow, as far as the food goes, I was pleasantly impressed. I ordered the steak queso crunch burrito and that burrito was a BEAST! So huge. I only ate half of mine. It came with nacho chips too which were very yummy and plentiful as well as a side of queso for the chips. I requested salsa too at no charge. I think I would have liked it more if I ate my meal at the restaurant though Bc the crunch inside the burrito wasn't "as" crunchy by the time I got it home to eat. But it was still very yum. Just a mental note to try it again when I finally dine in next time. I'm looking forward to trying other items on their menu next time. And I will prob try the curbside pick up one more time also to see if my experience this time was a fluke or not. Haha

    Wowww! I was blown away by the new Queso Crunch burrito. My meal came with a giant bag of chips, salsa, and the burrito. It was more food than I could even finish and the price was amazing. I ended up sharing half the burrito with my mom and we were both extremely full by the end. My burrito had the perfect amount of crunch, queso, rice, and perfectly cooked chicken. The customer service was amazing and everyone was kind. The restaurant was clean and social distancing and masks were enforced. I thoroughly enjoyed my meal and am so honored to have been able to try it first through Yelp! Thank you Yelp for giving us this opportunity. Next time I go to Tijuana Flats I'll be getting this for sure!

    This is supposed to be a taco

    If I could give a -100, I would. Not only was my online order 30 minutes late, but this is what they gave me for a chicken-black bean taco. No wonder the place is empty.

The restaurant is buried in a line of other businesses door-to-door from each other, and hidden behind shrubbery. Once you find it, you will know it. There are husband and bride skeletons on the floor in the window by the door. Once inside, we were greeted, and asked if our order was pickup. It was to go. The wonderful and very busy woman at the counter, offered the menu, but we already had one. She was busy not just taking orders, taking payments, and getting deliveries out the door, but mixing drinks, and taking care of tables! She was a one woman army! Outside looks small, and so does the inside. But the layout is done in such an effective way that it there is counter seating, and more than enough tables to host a small event. It is like a small living room that is still large enough to throw a decent party! The décor is authentically Mexican with Mexican pottery, glassware, imagery, decorations, etc. Regarding the food, it is as authentic as the décor. Chilangos Mexican Grill is not Taco Bell or Pollo Tropical! The food is made from the heart and soul not from a corporate cookbook. So if you are a fan of Mexican food, or want to try it, visit Chilangos Mexican Grill. You may have trouble finding it, but once you do, the trouble will be MORE THAN worth it!!!

Give me some good street tacos and call it a day! I don't necessarily need Korean BBQ, tempura, and all the fancy, bougie extras on my tacos. So when I saw the menu, I wasn't sure this was going to be my kind of place. But surprisingly... they got me! The tacos were actually really good. We happened to go during happy hour, so the prices were very reasonable. I tried three different tacos: the tempura shrimp, Korean rib, and ground beef. The ground beef was the closest thing to a traditional taco, and while it was a little salty for me, it was still good. The tempura shrimp and Korean rib were both really tasty and definitely surprised me. We also added rice and beans, which went well with everything. I don't remember the exact happy hour pricing or combo details, but overall, I thought the meal was reasonably priced for what we got. The restaurant itself was really cute, and the service was great. Just know going in that these aren't your traditional street tacos--the menu is definitely more creative and elevated. For someone who walked in skeptical of the "bougie taco" situation, I walked out impressed. If I'm ever back in Florida and in the area, I'd definitely consider stopping by again!

There were seven of us for Taco Tuesday, and from the moment we sat down, our waitress seemed irritated that she had to serve our table. We ordered quickly because we already knew what we wanted. I ordered four Birria tacos on corn tortillas ($19.00) and a michelada ($9.90). Everyone else's food came out correctly, but mine did not. The tacos were clearly served on flour tortillas instead of corn. I politely pointed out the mistake and asked for them to be replaced. Instead of correcting the order, the waitress brought back the exact same plate and looked me in the eye while insisting they were corn tortillas. They absolutely were not, and my friends confirmed the same. I refused to eat them and ended up taking them home for my daughter. What makes this especially upsetting is that this isn't just about getting an order wrong--mistakes happen. The problem is that the restaurant chose to lie rather than fix it. If this had been a customer with a gluten allergy or celiac disease, the consequences could have been serious. Serving the wrong food is one thing; knowingly trying to pass it off as something it isn't is completely unacceptable and incredibly irresponsible.
