According to a news release, the sale and filing are the culmination of a strategic review that started in Nov. 2023 when the company began exploring various options which had included a potential sale.

The change marks a new chapter for the organization which was founded nearly 30 years ago.

Tijuana Flats is a fast-casual Tex-Mex restaurant founded in 1995 in Winter Park, Florida.

It currently has 65 company-owned locations throughout Florida, along with 26 franchised restaurants located in Florida, Alabama, North Carolina, and Tennessee.
