Tijuana Flats has added several new menu additions to its Fresh Mex lineup, now available at its South Florida locations.
According to a Broward County blog, all six new items were featured for three months in test stores throughout the Central Florida area.
The items include "signature burritos" that feature the Tijuana Flats take on other classic dishes. The Steak & Cheesy Burrito, a Tex-mex version of a classic philly cheese steak, is filled with seasoned steak, grilled onions, peppers and topped with mozzarella cheese.
The company added a Chips & Beefy Queso dip, which is Tijuana's delicious classic cheese "queso" dip mixed with fresh ground beef. Another permanent menu item are the rice bowls, a whole wheat fried tortilla shell loaded with rice, black beans, grilled onions, peppers, tomatoes, green onions, salsa and a choice of meat.
The company also plans to open two new corporate locations in March, according to an article in the Orlando Business Journal. The Florida locations include a 2,000-square-foot, 100-seat location in College Park and a 2,300-square-foot, 105-seat location in Palm Beach Gardens.
