It’s not the Tina’s I used to know . The people are different and the food doesn’t taste like Tina’s food. I been coming here since I was a kid and the lady who always greeted us was not that same lady you know who I’m taking about if your a regular. I won’t be back .

Hands down The Best Taquitos and guac I’ve had in my 27 years of life can’t be beat!

I don't know why, But Tina's tacos are better then homemade tacos lol ? I been here twice in a week :/ all well worth it . Great customer service, prices are right. Why cook when Tina's is open lol

bought chilaquiles today. NO BUENO- They put like a salsa for the chilaquiles instead of the traditional guajillo red sauce. the sauce they used tasted sour and very spicy, wasn't good. um... bought chilaquiles from here a year ago.... and at that time they were good. seems like this place is losing their MOJO. get it together.... food is simple !!!!

Was craving tacos and the google map suggested this spot. They had a taco Tuesday special so I ordered three. She'll was very crispy, cheese was very generous piled on. Tacos are a little on the smaller size but the meat to shell/toppings ratio was spot on.

Did this place close down? I went there several times and it was closed. Anyone know anything?

Tina's was closed for a while due to remodeling. They are open again. Same owners, but with new staff. The food is still very good. Same recipes as they have always had! Lots of cheese. Love the crispy tacos!

SO unhappy with the service here, I been coming here since I was a kid and never had poor customer service like I experienced recently. The food didn't taste the same the original staff wasn't there. I knew something wasn't right. Until I heard about that the new location off Douglas. I was so happy to have found the new location. food was Amazing as usual and the same workers I been seeing for years were at the location off Douglas.

Hi I have been going to Tina’s for 11 years so when I heated that they were closed I was upset you can’t find bomb I mean bomb Mexican food really just any where.. so to my surprise when they reopened I was even more upset that the food is NOT the same. I could tell on the shredded beef enchiladas the meat was different I did not eat my plate for the first time ?. But I found the ORIGINAL JUSTINAS?. They are located right across the street from Bobby bonds and the ORIGINAL food the ORIGINAL workers it’s JUSTINAS!!!!! Please please do t take our word for it just try it you’ll know what I’m talking about.

Been going there for years. Always pretty good. However, today was much different. Must have changed owners. First clue, no familiar faces. Second clue, lady taking order was unfamiliar with items on new small paper menu as opposed to large menu on wall. I asked for a simple combo burrito. Meat beans and cheese. She looked at the menu and couldn't find it. Asked if I wanted it "wet". I said no. Just simple. She pointed to a "deluxe" which said meat, beans and cheese. What I got was a meat burrito drenched in beans with melted cheese on top in a partially melted Styrofoam container. A real mess! I brought it to their attention and they looked puzzled. I told them I'd take it anyway. Meat had no flavor. After 3 bites I threw it away. I called to ask about my experience 4 times. No one would answer the phone. Not going back anytime soon.
