    A friend and I were thinking alike when we sent a random text 'did u eat yet'. Per usual, she will find a new spot. This place is located in a small shopping center. Nice little set up, decor was cute and service was wonderful. They have a prefix menu, drink and 3 courses. It was filling that we took our dessert home. And of course we ordered apps on top of that cause, hey, who doesn't order with their eyes?! Empanadas delicious. Flavorful. Guac fresh. Skirt steak got me!! I love a good steak but I love me more a good Spanish steak. And this was delicious, flavorful, it had like a demi glaze to it. And grill flavor. This is a must try!!!

    Nice venue.

    Staring off with a solid 4 stars... This place was just terrific. Close to home, easy entry and exit off of Old Country Road and plenty of parking. We walked in and were immediately greeted by the hostess / server. Just the way I like to come into a restaurant. This shop is big and there are plenty of tables. Not terribly busy when we got there but it was early and people were coming in through our dinner. The tortilla chips and delicious sauces made me eat more than I wanted to but... There I was, a prisoner to delicious food. For appetizers I had the Nachos with a cheese tampiquena sauce, jalapeño pepper and chorizo, and my wife had the Guacamole. Both of these dushes could easily be shared. They were delicious. You can taste the freshness and you know these items are made to order. Throughout out our appetizers our server kept making sure that everything was good. I promise you, everything was good. Now the main dish. A steak with vegetables for my wife and a beef burrito for me. Both these items are easily shareable. Again, both delicious a big beef burrito with plenty of yellow rice and beans. The steak was also cooked perfectly and came with rice and beans. Really happy here and want to come here with a group so we can order more food and enjoy sharing. A Solid 4 stars that I'm sure will turn into 5 on my next visit. Way to go 5 De Mayo.

    Came here for Cinco de Mayo and expected more from this restaurant named after the holiday. The food was mediocre and the margaritas were basic. Average priced and the service was good.

    I came here yesterday (Friday) to meet up with my friend and we're both so glad we discovered this…read morespot! I've been to Baci next door several times and never realized this restaurant was where it was! There is a free smallish parking lot in front as the lot is shared with the other stores in the strip mall that it's located in. I arrived around 12:45pm and was lucky enough to find ONE spot remaining. When I left around 2:45pm, there were a lot more available spots. Upon entering, I just sat where my friend was sitting. It looks like you can pick anywhere to sit and eventually someone will come over to take your order. All the wait staff were very nice and patient with us, as I was indecisive with what I wanted to order; everything looked so good! To order, there was a QR code on the table that you can scan and then browse the menu on your phone. A bit random but I really appreciated the bag hooks that were on the side of the table! I ended up ordering a Grilled Shrimp Quesadilla and my friend ordered a Regular Margarita and a Carne Asada Burrito. We were both very happy with our choices! Flavorful and fresh, my quesadilla was the perfect size and my friends burrito was pretty filling that she had to pack the rest to go. There is also a clean and spacious bathroom in the back if needed. Credit cards are accepted and they can split the bill if needed. We will be returning!

The guac was creamy and little bit on the sweet side. I ordered the Birria Tacos and thought it was very good. I also had a drink called Mezcalita which was excellent!

I remeber the food was delicious and my memory was correct. We started with the guacamole, which was very fresh and tasty. We all ordered tacos and they were really delicious. Lack of photos as my daughter was running around the restaurant. I had the shrimp taco, chicken taco, and brisket. Was so good. My parents also enjoyed their tacos. The service was great. We were seated pretty quickly. The restaurant is really nice. It's large and has a big bar as well. Will be back again to bring my husband.

Entrées are around $30 and…read moresurprisingly don't include basic sides like rice or beans--you have to order them separately for $6.18, and the portion of white rice was very small. What really bothered me was the pricing practice. Every item on the menu appears to have a 3% increase built into the price, with only a small note saying there's a "cash discount." In reality, it feels like a hidden credit card surcharge that's baked into the menu price unless you pay cash. That kind of pricing feels misleading since you're given the check with the assumption your payment is a credit card. Overall, decent food, but between the high prices, extra charges for basic sides, and the built-in 3% fee, it didn't feel like a good value.

The soup was packed with green beans, zucchini, carrots, potatoes, beef, and corn, and it came with a side of rice, plus cilantro, onions, and lemon to add to it. It was fantastic! We also ordered a steak and shrimp burrito, as well as a steak tlacoyo, which is a thick tortilla filled with beans and topped with red and green salsa, steak, and cheese. It was incredibly delicious, though definitely spicy! The service here is always amazing from everyone. I truly feel right at home whenever I walk into this place. Para la cena del Día de los Caídos (Memorial Day), tuvimos ganas de probar una de sus sopas y pedimos el Caldo de Res. ¡Estuvo tan delicioso que incluso los niños terminaron comiendo sopa con nosotros! El caldo venía cargado con ejotes, calabacita, zanahorias, papas, carne de res y elote, y traía un lado de arroz, además de cilantro, cebolla y limón por si querías agregárselos. ¡La sopa estuvo riquísima! También pedimos un burrito de carne asada con camarón, así como un tlacoyo de carne asada, que es técnicamente una tortilla gruesa rellena de frijoles y encima lleva salsa roja y verde con carne y queso. Estaba delicioso pero picoso. El servicio siempre es increíble por parte de todos; realmente me siento como en casa cada vez que entro a este lugar.
