Since day one, Tijuana Flats has always given back to the community. But in January 2007, we created the Just in Queso Foundation to give back even more. Much more. We’ve raised over $4,000,000 and counting, and our team members have donated countless hours to help those in need. We give back internally too through team member scholarships, a team member assistance fund and other in-house initiatives.
We satisfy people’s cravings for bold flavors and colorful experiences piled high with big-hearted over-the-top service. And we proudly celebrate every person and every community with Tex Mex For All. That nicely sums up what we do. But who are we at our core and what do we believe? Our core values can answer that. They’re the main things we believe are important in life and behaviors we strive to achieve at all times.
We always treat every individual equally and with great respect, striving to listen, lead by example, openly communicate and treat others as we want to be treated. We truly care about our people and are quick to lend a hand during tough times, both personally and professionally.
We consistently provide high-quality guest and team member experiences and never compromise on our standards. Our passion is serving freshly prepared food and delivering engaging, over-the-top service in a spotless environment. We believe in ongoing training, regular feedback and a good quality of life for all team members.
Creating opportunities is how we grow. We look beyond the surface to tap into each person’s potential, helping our people achieve great performance, advancement and financial growth. We’re focused on where we’re all going, not where we’ve been.
We are honest and open in our words and actions as we keep our promises and always do what is right. Integrity guides us in how we run our restaurants, how we conduct ourselves as professionals and how we treat all of our business relationships.
We constantly innovate and seek new ways to meet and exceed the wants and needs of our guests, team members and partners. We pursue actionable and meaningful ideas to enhance and evolve our overall guest experience and bottom line.
We have fun working in our restaurants knowing that our guests can feel the high energy. We are at our best when we create a chill vibe of living on the edge without trying too hard to be cool. We prefer efficient controls to stiff rules and we believe in the power of laughter, teamwork and genuine smiles.
We always embrace our neighbors and quickly lend our support in times of need. We are proud to serve our communities and worthy causes through both our restaurants and the Just in Queso Foundation.
