Tijuana Flats restaurants are fast-casual hybrids with fresh food, hot sauce bars, art murals and off-beat culture. It has over 135 locations (117 company owned & 18 franchised) throughout Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, Virginia, and Indiana. I love spicy foods by the way but if you think I’m exaggerating, the bar literally has a disclaimer above it that reads, “Use at your own risk! These sauces are extremely hot! Children are not allowed at the Hot Bar.Tijuana Flats Tex-Mex is a privately-held American restaurant chain serving Tex-Mex cuisine. Jones explained, “Founder Brian Wheeler is also the creator of the Tijuana Flats Smack my Ass & Call me Sally line of sauces.” (yep, he totally named his sauce that, it’s good though) I guess it all worked out though because this just gives you more of a reason to stop by a location near you.įirst honorable mention goes to the Tijuana Flats HOT Bar! A hot sauce bar can be found in every location and features more than 10 varieties of sauce that range from mild to sweet chili sauce to “you’re a self-hating glutton for punishment” type of diner that enjoys face melting habanero sauces. We’ll just stick to calling them honorable because literally everything was worth mentioning but I was too busy stuffing my face to capture it. We were served both chicken and beef varieties.īefore I wrap up Entrees, I have two honorable mentions. This one was a little tricky to get from plate to mouth without feeling like there was an impending shirt stain ahead but honestly it was my favorite of the night. Mexican Pizza – Fried tortilla, red sauce, melted cheese, choice of protein and toppings. It is basically the appetizer you didn’t even know you needed. I’m told the Atom Bombs have a cult-like following when they are available.

Served with a side of sour cream & Smack Sweet sauce. You won’t find these on the menu and they’re not always available but if they are, definitely give this appetizer a try.Ītom Bombs – Lightly fried tortillas stuffed with cream cheese & fresh jalapeños. Quick question, have you ever wanted a jalapeño popper but wrapped in a warm crispy flauta? Well you will have to come in and ask for Atom Bombs. Side note: I immaturely giggled way too long after I wrote that sentence.

I guess they know, just like y’all do, everything tastes better once it’s served with a little meat in it.

Sounds simple enough, right?! Yet this was #FlatsHiddenMenu and we were served Queso Con Carne instead. We were served the Tijuana Trio, which is warm chips, handmade salsa, guacamole and queso. Beefy Queso – Classic queso combined with beef
