Placed an online order and added cheese dip with is $5 extra and the cup was so small. When I went to eat the cheese dip it was so cold like someone had just given me a cup of milk and the salsa was even colder.

Visited Cinco de Mayo Bar and Restaurant for dinner and enjoyed a few highlights worth sharing. We started with drinks—a red sangria and a jalapeño margarita. Both were visually appealing and hit the mark on flavor. The sangria was fruity and refreshing, while the margarita had just the right kick without overpowering the drink.

For food, we ordered 12 chicken wings with fries and 4 birria tacos. The wings were hot, crispy, and well-coated in sauce, and the fries were cooked just right. The birria tacos were flavorful, served with consommé on the side, and loaded with tender meat, onion, and cilantro.

Service stood out—Kelly was attentive, friendly, and made sure we had everything we needed. Her energy added to the experience.

There are a couple of areas for improvement. The music was playing too low, which took away from the energy of the space. A bit more volume would help bring out the vibe the place is clearly going for. Also, the air vents looked overdue for a good cleaning, which was hard to miss when looking around.

That said, I see a lot of potential here and plan to come back earlier in the evening to get a feel for the place when it’s more active. I get that toward closing time, things start winding down. Looking forward to seeing how it feels at full swing.

Not the traditional food you would expect, but it filled the void.

Nothing to write home about. There are better Mexican places in town. Taco loco for one. I’d only go here in a pinch

They have/had no idea what a burrito was. Its on the menu, yet still comes with the rice OUTSIDE of the tortilla AND sauce on top preventing you from picking it up and eating it.

If i ordered a large pepperoni pizza and the pepperoni came on the side and they cut it up small, so you have to use a fork....how is that pizza?

I opted for McDonald's. And i hate McDonald's.

Honestly, I have no idea what most of the scathing reviews are talking about. I just went here with my family and the food was great. The fajita quesadilla I got tasted and was presented great. My dad's mocahete bowl looked good and he loved it.

The worst part was the service though by far. Our server was, in the nicest way possible, brain dead. When we went to order, we asked if we could order something to go for someone at home. He said that he won't put it in now and that we should remind him later?????? Excuse me? He then proceeded to take our order and never put in that side order until we were finished and sitting waiting for over 5-10 minutes. So then we had to sit there and wait even longer for that to-go order before we could leave. Even though there were only 2 parties in the whole restaurant (including us) I never got my water filled and he never asked if we wanted more chips and salsa and he didn't remove them when they were empty. My dad asked for change at the payment counter and we were standing there for another 5+ minutes while he walked around serving tables instead of getting us our change. Why does this server not have access to a register?

TLDR: kitchen A+ Service F

I liked the nachos and super burrito. I liked the beef vs the chicken. All of the food has a great presentation to it.

Came here for taco Tuesday. Tacos are very delicious. I still prefer La Lobera in Bunker Hill, but this food was tasty.

Ordered fajitas and queso for my pregnant wife. I noticed first thing how light the to go bag was. I spent 30$ on this meal. 17$ for fajits and some how they charge 13 for a tiny thing of quaso and salsa. Hard no on going back to this place.

About three years ago I used to eat the taco salad from this place almost every weekend, but I had my hat in three years, and decided to go back and spoil myself with my favorite taco salad. Sadly, to say I will not be going back and getting my not so favorite taco salad anymore. The salad itself inside a fishell was so watery that it made the shell very moist and
Gross. The taco shell was not the same as it was 3 years ago. Maybe they changed different tortillas. Either way, it was overpriced, not like it was. But I do have to say that the service is still phenomenal.And the atmosphere is still welcoming
