Tijuana Flats

Found our new favorite food spot! The food is delicious, the bar was unexpected but is a huge plus (the margs are to die for!), and the ambience with live music and happy hour (on certain nights) is the cherry on top. Prices are extremely reasonable and the staff is so friendly. 10/10 would recommend this place to anyone. Great addition to Apollo Beach!

I'm not usually one who passes up local eateries to go to a chain, so this was my first time here. The restaurant was very clean and the service was wonderful. Shannon took our order in a very friendly manner and was helpful after we had gotten our food. Thanks Shannon!

Good tasting tacos and nice warm chips with warm good tasting queso. Good service from the staff at the bar. The mango beer was also good. A relaxing experience to sit at the bar in this T-Flats with a cool breeze coming in from outside. Neat Apollo Beach themed wall painting inside the restaurant.

Amazing vibes on this place. I love their tacos. Wings are tasty and my wife loved her quesadillas. There was live music the day we went and the guy rocked. Definitely a great place at Apollo for a personal or family sit down lunch or dinner. I am planning to go again next weekend to try something else. Anyone knows when there is live music again?

I am so glad that this restaurant has opened up here in Apollo Beach! This is everything that we needed! Indoor/outdoor bar! The spicy margarita was amazing! The shrimp tacos were so fresh and light! The restaurant was brand new and super clean and the team was very knowledgeable and friendly! I will definitely be there all the time!

Wow, what an incredible experience at Tijuana Flats! The food was absolutely delicious, fresh, and flavorful. But what really made our visit stand out was the exceptional staff. Friendly, attentive, and went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. 5 stars isn't enough - we'll be back again and again! 🌯👍

Amber is such a sweet soul. She is incredibly personable, and always has a smile on her face. She is an absolute asset to the team and compliments the wonderful, consistent service we always receive. She is incredible!!!!!!

Good food at low prices. Better food than when they first opened. Nice to have more food options nearby. Great for kids and family too.

Tijuana Flats in Apollo Beach is an amazing dining experience. The food is exceptional in terms of both quality and freshness. From their delicious tacos to flavorful burritos, every dish is a treat for the taste buds. My favorite is the cheesy steak flautas and can’t get over the churro bites!! The customer service is top-notch, and the staff goes above and beyond to ensure a pleasant dining experience. The vibrant and welcoming environment adds to the overall enjoyment. The addition of a full bar is a great enhancement, making it an excellent choice for the Apollo Beach community.

Food is great. Service is great. We chose to carry out because the dining room wasn’t really clean (ie sticky chairs ) at a previous visit.

"Exceptional dining experience at Tijuana! The food was top-notch, with each dish exceeding expectations. The service was outstanding, and I appreciated the generous portions per plate. Kudos to Jorge Fernandez for creating a truly enjoyable restaurant atmosphere!"

Food was delicious, and prepared with attention. Thanks!,and kudos. Service was pleasant and attentive at the hour I was in the dining room. I will be a return customer.

New and much needed in Apollo Beach. First Tijuana Flats that I've been to with a bar. Little smaller indoor dining room than most but plenty of tables outdoors. You can't go wrong with the ultimate nachos or tacos. This location also has a smaller hot sauce bar. Food and service were spot on. Churro bites were just OK. A little too cakey and dense to be a churro.

Love the new location! Outdoor seating, outdoor bar area! Bright & fun atmosphere. Spoke with the manager & he was very friendly. Food was great! Portions are great! Very satisfied. Welcome to the area!

Apollo Beach just got a spicy upgrade with this Tijuana Flats gem – cinco estrellas! The vibrant atmosphere, friendly staff, and great flavors make it the perfect new spot for a great bite! What truly sets them apart is the addition of a bar and live entertainment. The guacamole is a must-try, and the margaritas are top-notch.

My husband, friend, her daughter and I dined here on 3/23/2025 at 4:30PM. Aaron was the only employee working at the time but you wouldn't know he-- he provided 10/10 service and experience! He was beyond friendly and calm; you can tell he really cares about his job and customers. The food was excellent as well. Thank you so much Aaron!

It's been a minute since my last visit to Tijuana Flats. My first surprise was the cost of the menu. I'm stating it but moving on. My order was for a burrito bowl with black beans. I was able to eat it all but am quite sated. There was good flavor and it's always a benefit to choose from different sauces. The biggest rain for a stellar review is because of Pablo. We learned he has been with this restaurant for about a month but in all honesty he could teach a thing or 2 to others in the food industry. Today it is becoming harder to encounter truly friendly and courteous servers. Yes, those 2 adjectives are used together because Pablo deserves praise.

The Apollo Beach store aways has staff willing to help and everyone is always friendly. The food is decent and most meals come with torilla chips. Also if your order online, you can create an account and receive reward points. This location has a bar that opens up to the outside and they also have outdoor seating. This fast food restaurant is a great addition to the expanding area.

Place went down hill. Was ok when they first opened but food is trash now. Just spent 50 bucks there on food I'm going to just throw away... Update: Went in today, Aaron was the bartender. He was awesome. Was attentive, informed me of all the specials and deals they offered. Took my order and triple checked multiple times that it was correct. He made suggestions on food options. He was very polite and outgoing. Initially had a 1 star rating due to a previous visit being not ideal, Aaron's customer service and overall attitude has made me change my review. Can tell he actually genuinely enjoys his job and interacting with customers. Thanks Aaron

Staff was nice and immediately greeted everyone who walked in, Tijuana flats almost always gets my orders wrong, (crazy because I order family meals). This time we got what we needed and the prices went down a bit which was nice. Great experience.

Quick taco restaurant we stopped at for dinner one night. Food was very good, the chips were great, just couldn't find a sauce I really liked....and there are lots of options (though a couple were empty and may have been the more popular ones).

Not the place to be if you are keto minded. However, the food is delicious and the people are outstanding. They assist you in every way possible to make your dinner experience.Pleasant

Everything was ok except for the chicken tacos were full of juice and very watery . When I picked up taco it was soooo runny, grossed me out so won't order the chicken again for sure. I also got a to go order and it was wrong. The employees were nice, restaurant was clean the taco Tuesday special was awesome. Only other weired thing was the car was dryer next store 🙄 you can here it inside the restaurant. Third world problems so can't really complain

My daughter didn't get her cookie we paid for, didn't realize it it until we got home. And do we take our trays, or do they, I mean they did, but seemed different.

The guy who took our order was great, super friendly. I'm pretty sure his name was David. I had the one of the bowls I wasn't fond of the chicken so next time I will for sure go with beef. So many sauces to choose from! Queso and chips SO good! I will for sure go back.

Okay so normally I don't do. But I'm going to have to say this about the kooks here at this restaurant. The cooks here are new and learning..but the fact that I only could taste guacamole 🥑 was a big disappointment. But the bar here is good. The bartenders here can make a good drink . I'm not sure if I'll eat here again. The drinks are high. 8 bucks for a WELL rum n coke. This place definitely needs to re-thimk their prices and overall selection of food. I was not impressed with the menu to start. And the chicken burrito I ordered was terrible. See pic's below..

One of the nicer locations food is good but when a customer is standing there at least say hello. I'll be with you in a minute. When they brought my meal 3/4 of the chips were broken pieces. He did bring me more after I asked. Look at your presentation of what you are bringing to the customer. Your brand matters I eat at Tijuana flats quite a bit and you have a nice new location.

Because there's an email, there's a foredrink selection and the drinks that you get are ridiculously small! It's fine if you're getting tacos, but not a place to go to drink or hang out.

Went in around 9:40 and ordered two meals and a chips and SALSA app. Got home and realized I never got my salsa but instead they nasty queso and no toppings for my quesadilla. No pico no sour cream and no jalapeños. Can’t call of course because there closed and 25 mins from the house

This was a disappointing T. Flats experience from a long time fan. The double stacked tacos were dry and missing the queso. The employees were cleaning up for the day almost an hour before the posted closing time.

Well, my husband and I went here tonight and sat at the bar. We literally waited 5 minutes, and NOBODY greeted us; acknowledged us; or even made eye contact. It wasn’t very busy, and we thought we’d give this place a try, since we hadn’t been there yet. We were really disappointed and walked out. I saw a young girl with dark long hair in back eating, and two other workers in the back, so I’m not sure why they didn’t acknowledge new customers. I think we will try one more time at a later date, but I think there needs to be some additional customer service training. We are hoping this was a one-off night. The atmosphere looked promising, is why it even got more than one star.

They forgot to pack the tortilla chips with my queso dip. I didn't realize it until I got home and didn't want to drive back. I called and spoke to the manager who offered to credit my account with a free queso and entree. I received neither. I won't be back.

Went into this location last Friday and ordered fried shrimp tacos. I was thinking that these tasted off on the initial bites. I happened to look into it and noticed that the shrimp were completely raw. Things happen, I get it. Just more of a note for people to be careful and check your food before biting in. I will say the manager was understanding and said that meal would be taken off of our bill. That was a week ago and has yet to happen. Staff/service and atmosphere was fine. Just an unfortunate experience with raw shrimp.

It's a one and done for us. Food wasn't very good. Hot hot on to a cold metal tray. Looses temp quickly. Ordered tacos and burrito Food is mediocre at best. Staff were friendly though

I always get a bowl which is plenty for 2 from the Riverview location. This time i figured i would try the Apollo Beach location and I got a small square container and still got charged for bowl price $10. Talk about being price gouging and small portions. this is ridiculous. I found out this is a franchise location and not a corporate own Tijuana. I wont eat here again.

I love Tijuana Flats, and was very excited when we got one in Apollo Beach. Unfortunately, they are a franchise, and do not run the same deals as other Tijuana Flats. Very unfortunate, but I avoid this greedy location.

I wish I could give the quality of the food “0” stars! I placed an order online and put everything I wanted and didn’t want on my nachos. I don’t understand how a restaurant will get an online order wrong. I even filled out the survey on the receipt. Do you even think a manger took the time to reach out to me!? You guess right “No” they did not! Never will I come back. First and last time for sure!!

The lady tonight working has a bit of racist tendencies, and tonight, I confirmed with my own eyes. It's totally unacceptable. I very frequently order here. This business is always majority empty. The food is not that great. I never complained. No matter what your skin tone is, every person should be respected.

$26 for four tacos and a small bag of chips. The portions were very small barely filled the taco shells given and that’s including the toppings; that also didn’t look very fresh. Will stick to the taco trucks that are half a mile away . Better portions, freshness and cost is more realistic and reasonable. $26 is fine but not for what was given and to be left hungry and I’m not a big person.

My wife picked up two tacos and when I opened up the container she saw two tacos with hardly anything on them. I take them back to the store and the manager said they use the precise scoops, right after he said the two tacos come walking out for a customer in the dining room that were packed full and overflowing. I called him out and all he could do was look down and not say anything. I would stay away from this place!!

We were very disappointed to say the least! The food at this establishment was cold and was not up to par at all. Our order did not have any of the ingredients listed, it lacked presentation, was cold and simply not WORTH a RETURN EVER! If you are looking for this type of food please don't waste your time or money - not one bit of FLAVOR! 🤢🤢🤢🤢🗑🗑🗑
