Tuesday special $7.99 drink, chips, 2 tacos
Abby R.

When we first walked in, one of the doors is broken... and there was water all over the floor. The place was packed so we grabbed one of the open tables so that we could sit down while someone ordered the food. We have ate at Tijuana Flats before so I was familiar with the food but not this location. We got in line and ordered our food, the line actually went super quick. Those workers know exactly what they are doing. They are extremely efficient. Our food actually came out a lot quicker than I thought it was. It was all correct. That street corn bowl, steak, it is a special they have going on... It is the bomb. I highly recommend it. I definitely had reservations when we first got here but this restaurant is great. The staff was turning out orders so quick, there were so many people eating inside and having to go orders. I only knock off the one star for the water being all over the floor, I'm not really sure what happened... I don't know if the ceiling was leaking, obviously things like that are out of their control. The staff here definitely deserve a kudos because they were going around asking if anyone needed refills, trash was getting picked up as soon as people were done, tables were getting cleaned off as soon as the people left, and orders were being picked up left and right.

Tijuana Flats is great! The food is good, the staff is friendly, and the atmosphere is very inviting. I recommend the burrito and the queso. Go check these guys out!

Kids meal from today.

We really looked forward to this Tijuana Flats when we moved to Cocoa as we are frequent customers back in Orlando and what a let down. The food is great without a doubt (hence the one star) but the service is never good. We've come on a few occasions now and it's always the same. There is one cashier in particular that has brown hair who is just so unfriendly. She ruins my mood everytime I come here. On various occasions she has proven to lack customer service skills or general kindness. On one occasion I actually spoke to her manager because it made me uncomfortable how she snapped at a coworker and spoke to me. One of our favorite attributes about Tijuana is the atmosphere and cool/ friendly staff.... it's just not like that here. No one has offered to refill our drinks the numerous times we came. With all the awesome Mexican restaurants and another Tijuana Flats just a little further I think we will look elsewhere. I also think it's important to mention that parking is atrocious here. Just not a smart configuration. It's very difficult to find parking and they have all the front spaces reserved for pickup even though they do not deliver it to your car? Doesn't make sense to me.

I've been coming here for a while and pretty frequently during my son's football seasons. I love TJ Flats! The servers here are always very friendly and quick and the food is always right out of the kitchen piping hot! My only complaints are about the location's problems but not so much about the food - 1) this place likes to get busy and people like to linger...which means seating is constantly a problem and 2) the parking can be difficult. The parking in the front is limited and you'll be forced to hit the grass for a spot or swing through the alley if you find this area full. There are some spots on the side and the back though. Food here? The flautas and tacos are 2 of my personal faves but I try and rotate through the menu. The sauce bar is always changing and that is all about your personal tastes. If you want salsa, make sure to ask. The side of guacamole is also pretty good. About the only thing I've found that I'm not a fan of is the Bangin' Chicken. Something about their buffalo chicken in a burrito just doesn't do it for me even though I'm a fan of hot wings. Oh well, there are plenty of other choices I do like!

Chicken Bowl with chips
Ward D.

This restaurant is located down the street and across from the Merritt Island Mall. It is located non the north side of the road. There is some parking up front but it can be challenging to park some times. There is seating both inside and outside. Like most Tijuana Flats(TF), you order at the counter and they bring the food to the table. Most TF restaurants have Taco Tuesday which is two tacos, chips and a drink for a low price. They are also known for their sauce bar. The staff was very friendly. I ordered a chicken rice bowl. It was plenty of food and was very good. The prices were reasonable and refills for tea are free.

It's been about 15 years since I've been, do they still offer the spinach artichoke chimichanga?

Julia, I'm afraid we don't offer the Spinach Artichoke Chimi any longer, but there's definitely some new and delicious menu items you should check out if you're able to visit and try some of our new fresh flavors!

This place was a fantastic place to go with the family. The service was just fantastic! We had 3…read morelittle ones with us and the waitress was cheerful and engaged them in a way that helped them enjoy themselves. It was comfortable, the food service was quick and the food and drinks were delicious. The chimichanga, shrimp fajitas and Churrasco were all delicious and generously portioned. The chips and salsa are yummy and may put you in danger of filling up before you get your food. Do get the Queso for your chips it is awesome. This place feels very high end but with a heart of a family restaurant. We'll definitely be back next time we are in the area.

Been about a week since I ate here as I recently take the time to contemplate my review. After…read morethis deliberation, I am ready... The TL;DR version of all this is - the place is very good. Simply can't wait to return. The long version says the following: The location is easy to get too, and the inside of the restaurant is visually appealing. Though I do lean towards the beachy, tropical theme of things, this place does it without being kitschy or tacky. Though I expected the inside to have been wholly remodeled since the last restaurant that was a tenant here - it really had not. Instead, they updated the seating, bar, and outside to their taste - which is good, IMHO. I really liked the use of tablets for their menus. This was novel to me as I had never experienced it until I came here. The tablets worked well and even so, you got a feel for how extensive their menu truly is. Food-wise, there were no complaints around the table. I had their pork bowl which not only comes out hot and fresh, but copious - I just couldn't finish it - they piled on the food with what appeared to be wild abandon. My wife had their fajita plate which was massive. That definitely ended up going home with us. Desserts were their flan which had a flavor I had not expected, maybe not to true style, but definitely rich and delicious. No complaints here. Service was not only friendly but patient with us as we had plenty of questions for being our first time here, but it wasn't as attentive as I would have like. I think the waiter was overstretched in tables, but he still did an overall great job with us. In short, the newest Mexican restaurant in the area represents very well, and we are looking forward to our next trip back, hopefully very soon...

This place looked good, but ended up being just ok…read more The guacamole, chips, salsa and queso were really good. My enchiladas verdes were just ok. Cojita cheese isn't my favorite. My coke came to my table flat. I told the server about the soda being flat but she didn't seem to understand what I meant and she came back with another flat coke. I took that flat coke inside to the bar and they offered me a sprite. I said if your machine is out of CO2 then it isn't going to make a difference. She said they could just do a sprite so I accepted a flat sprite...lol. Do people not know what makes the fizz in their drinks? My fabric napkin was also damp, like it got washed and didn't dry all the way. When I asked for a new one, no one ever brought it so I stole one from another table. We ordered a dessert and it came out twice. My friend had an alcoholic drink which she said had too many flavors going on and tasted bad. Her next drink she liked. All the waitstaff seemed flustered. I bet this place could be good but it was not their night when my friends and I came.

I fear this place has vibes. Like fr. Walking into Milpa felt like Pinterest and abuela's house had…read morea very clean, modern baby. Food? Solid. We got tacos. They were good-good, not life-altering, not "I just saw God," but definitely a respectable 4/5 situation. Like if someone said "let's go here," I would not fight it. I would in fact pull up. Margaritas were also in their era. One came out a little watered down but our waiter let us get it remade which was clutch. Actual redemption arc. Service... hmm. Not bad, not amazing, just kinda existing. Our server wasn't super warm but also didn't ruin the experience. Just vibes-neutral. Overall: come for the aesthetic, stay for a decent meal, leave satisfied but not spiritually transformed. There also was a cute cat outside if that means anything to you haha. Would I come back? If the squad is going, yes. Am I personally craving it at 2am? Not exactly.

Mostly Hits *Magic Chicken was good - if you're a local, El Tucan served a slightly better/fresher version of this dish. Still very good and happy to know where to find it locally. *Birria Tacos were good. Less salty than some of the ones we've had on the island, but less flavorful than some too. Right down the middle. *Service makes both lists since we had 2 and they were polar opposites of one another for us on our last visit. Definite Misses *Salsa was meh. Asked for their spicy salsa next and it was also meh. Not horrible, just ok. Chips were firm and less salty than we like. *Margarita...was not a margarita. It was 90% sour mix and a maybe a splash of something. It wasn't on the menu. When asked, we got a weird non-committal response on it from the server and we pretty much got what we expected when a Mountain Dew looking drink arrived in a beer mug with a straw. Might've been a premixed margarita or one of those malt liquor ones (like the cheap Fireball ones). *Service was spotty. We'll probably go back at some point and try some friend recommendations when we do - fingers crossed. We weren't upset with anything we tried, but we weren't wowed either. Lots of local choices to consider....
