Tijuana Flats Bringing Back Cheeseburger Taco in New Ways

TL;DR

Tijuana Flats is bringing back the Cheeseburger Taco, a highly requested product, in three new ways: Cheeseburger Tacos, Cheeseburger Burrito, and Cheeseburger Loaded Fries. The new menu items will be available at all Tijuana Flats locations across Florida, Alabama, North Carolina, and Kentucky starting September 28.

For nearly a decade, the most requested return product by customers, franchisees, and Flatheads, is the Cheeseburger Taco. On Sept. 28, Tijuana Flats is answering the call, and making it even better by adding two new ways to get your cheeseburger fix (no bun needed).

“Our flatheads and our franchisees never stopped asking for Cheeseburger Tacos and as we move forward on our Bigger. Better. Bolder brand journey, we knew we had to listen to them and bring it back,” said James O’Reilly, CEO of Latitude Food Group, parent company of Tijuana Flats. “When we heard how high the demand was, we realized we had something special. So now we have brought the Cheeseburger Tacos back, and we created two new ways to experience that cheeseburger flavor.”

All three Cheeseburger items stack seasoned ground beef, queso, lettuce, tomatoes, onions, pickles, ketchup and mustard, without the bun this time:

  • Cheeseburger Tacos ($10.99): Two grilled flour tortillas served with fries.

  • Cheeseburger Burrito ($11.99): Wrapped in a warm flour tortilla with seasoned fries inside, toasted until golden and served with fries on the side.

  • Cheeseburger Loaded Fries ($9.99): Crispy fries loaded with all the cheeseburger goodness.

The cheeseburger lineup launches Sept. 28 at all Tijuana Flats locations across Florida, Alabama, North Carolina and Kentucky.
