I have a long history with Tortilla Flats, one that began on a warm early summer night almost six years ago and developed into a longterm relationship with consistently decent tex mex food. I headed there last night with intentions of jaunting down memory lane, so I ordered things that reminded me of the early days: 3oz cocktails (texas teas for me please), 2-4-1 fajitas (the Tuesday special! This place has great specials FYI) and criss cross fries. It was all amazing!
Tortilla Flats continues to score well in my books not because it has a gorgeous interior (it doesn't...it's actually in need of some TLC, though this is part of its charm) and not because the food is great (though I've never hated it, especially the avocado salad which holds a dear spot in my heart), but because it's a place for texas teas and margaritas on the lovely back patio, a meeting place for friends, and a spot for entertaining (and always great!) service.
The people are nice, the food is good and the drinks are generous and creative! I love mango margaritas on thursdays ($3.50) and cheap sangria pitchers on sundays ($11, I believe). It's not overtly expensive either. All in all, I always recommend this place!
