    Salad
    Kerri E.

    First time at this location and it didn't disappoint. Order at the counter and they bring your food out when it's ready. They have the hot sauce bar with the crazy-named sauces. There's an outside seating area with about 7 tables. My taco salad was great and the edible shell was delicious too. The salad included chips. They clean up your table when you're done. They serve Coke products and have Coke Zero.

    This was my second visit to Tijuana Flats my first visit was at a different location and it wasn't the best of experiences but I am so glad I gave them another try. This restaurant experience was exceptional from the time I walked through the door, the staff was very welcoming and the restaurant looked immaculate. After spending a few moments looking over the menu posted at the entrance to the counter I decided on the beef flautas and a few beef tacos, after having the food delivered to my table I quickly realized my eyes were definitely bigger than my appetite was - this was definitely a feast meant for two. Before diving in I made my way to the sauce bar, so many choices, so many choices, so many choices - I decided on hot and extremely hot even though I knew an ice cold beer wouldn't be an option knowing I still had unfinished business to do later in the afternoon (so unfortunate). I appreciated the side of chips that came with both platters but there was no way I was filling up on these when I had such a beautiful selection in front of me - I started with the flautas and they were heavenly, so fresh and hot with the perfect amount of filling and texture, the hot sauce which I can't for the life me remember their names were the perfect pairings. I decided to stop short from finishing them to leave room for the tacos which I ordered "as they come" - seasoned ground beef, cheese, tomatoes, sour cream and onion in a crispy shell all I can say is these were highly pleasing to the senses. I'm so glad I decided to give Tijuana Flats a second try, it's definitely back on the list of "A" list of options when it comes to fast and delicious taco cravings. The staff was very efficient and friendly and I got a courtesy check after my food came out just to make sure everything was to my liking and even an offer to refill my drink - this goes way beyond what fast food customers like myself are accustomed to but I liked it and very much appreciated it. So in case you need to be reminded a restaurant doesn't need to be high end to reward good service or for the employees to earn gratitude - these guys even bus the tables and sanitize between customers, like I said this isn't the typical fast food restaurant so show some appreciation. I do plan on returning but I promise I'll order less food the quality, portions and price all exceeded my expectations...

    Nice location, quick service. Went in for a quick lunch after a baseball tournament. The restaurant was pretty clean, including the restroom! That's always a plus. The food came out hot and presentation was good. Definitely enjoyed my meal- I got the Chile garlic steak and street corn bowl. It was soooo good! Definitely recommend while they're still serving it. It's only for a limited time.

    Chicken Flautas

    I don't know if it is just this location, but the food quality at Tijuana Flats has plummeted in the past 5 or more years. The chicken flautas have barely any chicken. Some pieces have none. They used to be filled with chicken and cheese. Absolutely disappointed. It used to be in my workplace lunch rotation 8-10 years ago. This is the first time in 3 years and it was very disappointing. Will not be going back.

    Hot sauces.  Jessi's Flaming Fruit was delicious.  Spicy but fruity without being cloyingly sweet.

    We did takeout last night. I called in our order way in advance but we still ended up waiting for some time. It was incredibly busy for a Thursday evening. I felt the food wasn't as tasty as it was when they first opened. Flautas was generic. Burrito was the same way. You choose a protein and seasoning (blackened or not). Maybe the quality has gone down? Maybe a local can tell me... The hot sauce selection are awesome. Make sure to ask for little travel cups to try the hot sauces. We always pick-up a few bottles when we are down here visiting the 'rents.

    Yay! I was too excited that they opened a Tijuana Flats in Mt. Dora because quality fast food choices are limited! This was my first time ordering from this Tijuana Flats so I called in the order. The young lady on the phone was very helpful and energetic. She answered all my questions about creating your own combos. I love creating sample platters lol She said it would be ready in 15mins so I arrived 20mins later and the manager stated they didn't have my order. We looked at the number I called and I told him I verified that this was the Mt. Dora location across from the Walmart. He was very nice and apologetic! He reassured me that he would make my order quick and offered me a drink while I waited. I ordered from the NEW FLAT OUTRAGEOUS MENU. I ordered 1 Carribean Street Taco(Crispy Jerk Chicken, MoreFire! hot sauce, shaved cilantro cabbage, pineapple salsa, & cotija cheese), 1 Crispy Baja Fish Taco(Cod Fish, chipotle creama, shaved cilantro cabbage, & pineapple salsa), and 1 Lime Steak Street Taco(Grilled garlic/line steak, avocado crema, shaved cilantro cabbage, pico de gallo, Cotija cheese), Churros, and small side of queso. All of them were good but I liked the lime steak & Baja fish tacos the most. The jerk chicken taco was too spicy & I usually like spicy food. Overall I really like Tijuana Flats. This location has good food & the customer service was great! Kudos to the manager(forgot his name) for providing awesome customer service & a complimentary meal for their error & my time! I will be back!

    Ultra Chicken/Black bean Nacho

    This isn't ultimate chicken/black bean in there at all! All I get is chips, cheese, few black beans, and sour cream, but NO CHICKEN! I was disappointed with my dinner, and I will not order this ever again!

    Chicken Tinga Burrito  This is the 4 oz and it's huge!

    El Mezcal is a good value - good Americanized-Mexican food, reasonably priced with friendly…read moreservice. The meals are big enough to share. The three of us ordered the $15.99 3 white enchiladas platter and the $14.99 3 ground beef tacos platter to share, ate until we were full and still took home a to-go-box. The restaurant brought us extra plates and serving spoons so we could split the food into individual portions with ease. It's possible to substitute sides without an extra charge, and we love the freedom of being able to customize. I love the Mexican rice with refried beans. Therefore, I substituted the lettuce, tomato and sour cream "salad" side that comes with the three enchiladas for refried beans, making the sides Mexican rice and refried beans. The tacos came with cilantro rice, which tasted like standard cilantro rice. My mom preferred the Mexican rice instead. The tacos only come with one side and adding refried beans is not cheap; it's an additional $4.99. The tacos were stuffed and the filling overflowed onto the plate. The taco shell tasted good, but the shell wasn't up the task of holding all those ingredients and broken apart a little more than half way through. It was finished with knife and fork but still remained delicious. The chips and salsa are plentiful. They volunteered refills. We accepted extra salsa which we used for extra seasoning on the tacos. The restaurant decor is basic Mexican themed - substantial wood chairs, tables and booths. However, booths and chairs have both seats and backs padded for comfort. There is a stocked bar along the back wall, but it's not a "bar scene" place. It's an option for singles dining alone who don't want a table or a space to grab a drink while waiting for your party. There was a large television tuned to a sports station for entertainment. There is outdoor seating, which is directly off the shopping center's parking lot. Therefore, cars line the outdoor sidewalk/eating area. What the outdoor area lacks in ambiance, it makes up for by being dog friendly.

    I've been coming here for over 10 years, even back when the restaurant was at its previous location…read moreunder its former name. It's still the same family running it, and the quality has remained consistently excellent all these years. The food is always fresh, flavorful, and served piping hot. Their salsa and guacamole are some of my favorites, the margaritas are fantastic, and the menu has so many options that it's honestly hard to decide what to order because everything sounds good. The service has always been friendly, attentive, and welcoming. You can tell they genuinely care about their customers and take pride in what they do. My family and I have celebrated countless birthdays and special occasions here over the years, often bringing large groups because we know we can always count on a great experience. The staff does an excellent job, even when our party is large, and they consistently make everyone feel welcome. The restaurant is always clean and has a warm, inviting atmosphere, making it a comfortable place to enjoy a meal with family and friends. It's not easy for a restaurant to maintain this level of quality and consistency for over a decade, but they've done exactly that. If you're looking for authentic, delicious Mexican food with excellent service, this is the place to go. I highly recommend it.
