I won't lie, this was one of the worst meals I've had in my life. The only reason anybody would like this restaurant is because their standards are so low, they don't know what good food is or they're the type of person that thinks well seasoned consists of salt and mayonnaise. I threw half of it away and only ate the first half out of obligation because I wasted money on it and had nothing else to eat at work for 12 hours and even then, I went hungry because it was better. This place is gross

Went this past weekend for the very first time and I will definitely not be back - considering the place was so jammed packed with drunk underage college students with margarita towers on their tables and everyone partaking -- not just the person old enough to purchase alcohol. They placed me and my friends RIGHT BESIDE the speaker in the back room, at a booth with benches that was so scrunched together that we couldn't even get into the booth. We never got waited on, we never got drinks, never got food, so we left. Unless you want to go to a bar with all kinds of underage kids that is packed to the gills - I wouldn't even make the trip.

Took a while to get seated. The service was alright. The food was ok and margaritas tasted cheap. Fun college environment though!

Waited 45 minutes to get our check despite repeated requests. Poor management and incompetent servers hinder the potential of Cinco.

Tried to place a order at 11pm and they said they were closed, even though they are open until midnight.

Food was great, we don’t get to go out much to eat, we usually order for carry out, but recently we went inside and we had a server named Luzma I believe. Service was really great and next time I will be asking for her again.

Extremely bad customer service.

Food was okay, slightly cold. Got chicken cheese and rice. Two hours later started feeling sick after only eating this all day. Ended up in the hospital with E. coli and another bacterial infection likely from raw chicken! It’s been a week and a half now and still battling the infection.

Filing and great company.

Let's be honest, this restaurant is focused on a more young, partying audience. The food is certainly not bad, but do not come here expecting the greatest Mexican or Tex-Mex cuisine. Now that that's out of the way, the margaritas are phenomenal. High end tequila? No. Lots of tequila? Yes. If you're one to partake in drinking, order a margarita tower for your table. There are plenty of delicious flavors and you have your choice of frozen or on the rocks; they'll even let you swirl two frozen flavors. The staff is friendly and understands that people come here to drink. Prices are reasonable, as the primary guests are students. This place is a UK staple that I hope never dies.

Great food in my opinion ! Took my girlfriend out she got the steak nacho fries and I had the pork carnitas fajitas with homemade hot sauce , both were exquisite!
