In 1999, Fitch invested in the company and was appointed its CEO to expand the company. Students from Wheeler's former college made up some of the restaurant's early customers.Īfter the third location was opened, a semi-retired restaurant executive, Camp Fitch, was invited to Tijuana Flats by his golf partner. It was modeled after Burrito Brothers, a Mexican restaurant in Gainesville, Florida and funded with $20,000 in borrowed money from Wheeler's family. Tijuana Flats was started in Winter Park, Florida. The company had 18 locations before expanding out-of-state in 2004. The restaurant was founded in Winter Park, Florida, in 1995 by University of Central Florida graduate Brian Wheeler with US$20,000 in loans. Customers order at the front counter and are served after taking a seat. 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 took the time to write this to point you in the right direction in case you’re not sure where to eat.Tijuana Flats Tex-Mex is a privately-held American restaurant chain serving Tex-Mex cuisine. Dave rang up our order for the 1st time on our last visit, again a smile and repeated our order back to make sure he had it correct! Another good experience! She’s amazing with names too! What an asset to your company. She makes sure everyone is taken care of including stopping at tables to see if there’s something more she can get or help someone with. There hasn’t been an unfriendly worker I’ve met there yet. My husband orders the tostadas, I finally tried one, now I can’t decide which dish to get!!(usually connive a few of his). The chicken taco’s have always been my favorites, the chips on the side are plentiful, and it’s always fun going over to the sauce bar and experimenting with new flavors. I started going to Tijuana Flats on visits here because my sister said “it’s the best”, I totally agreed and now live here and eat 1-3 times a week here. I’m from Chicago, known for having some of the best food in the states.
