We ordered the Shrimp Fajitas and were able to make it half shrimp / half crab; and we also had the Hawaiian Quesadilla. Food portions were adequate for price paid. Food quality was good, and our entrees were served "hot off the press". Estella's was good, but we have been to better Mexican Restaurants in the Toledo area.

Anyway, this is a place for people who enjoy highly flavored and spicy food. Seriously, ask them to go easy on the jalapenos if you aren't up for spicy. I ordered everything as is for my first visit for takeout and enjoyed it but it was on the edge of too spicy for me, (chicken grande burrito) without actually crossing the line.Very much crossed the line with the shrimp tacos, imo. I ordered the following: Menudo Soup (made from cow's stomach); Shrimp Tacos and a Chicken Burrito Grande. The estimated prep time was 15 minutes and the food was ready on time. It's a cute, small restaurant that is very clean. While you could choose to dine in, I didn't see anyone eating there and it appears that most of their business is carryout. Upon arriving home, I found that the Menudo Soup had spilled inside the plastic bag. Not too big a deal. The other entrees were packed in styrofoam containers. The burrito was wrapped in paper and foil. My mom had the Menudo Soup and said it was good. She had one of the three shrimp tacos and said it was okay but that she wouldn't crave them. The avocado slices looked very fresh. My mom loves spicy food but she commented that the soup and tacos were very spicy. As for my chicken burrito, it was unexpectedly spicy in a mostly good way. The burrito was stuffed with everything inside - guacamole, rice, chicken, refried beans (very little), cheese and jalapeno peppers. It was a delicious combo but I would have preferred the individual ingredients to be separate. The biggest problem, however, was that the foil wrap made it difficult to cut into the burrito without also cutting into the foil. I think it's more of a "me" issue that might not bother anyone else. Overall, I would order from this restaurant again. The quality is definitely way above Taco Bell, but it's not quite fast food even though it's next to a Subway. Also, I asked if their refried beans were made with lard and I was assured they were vegetarian. If I hadn't seen so many positive reviews on Yelp, I wouldn't have known to check out this spot, but would encourage you to try it too for high quality, authentic Mexican cuisine! EDIT/UPDATE: I tried one of the shrimp tacos that my mom left in the fridge. OMG, it was super spicy to the point of giving me hiccups. Plus, the spiciness seemed to come from a creamy cheese sauce added to the shrimp tacos after they were cooked. I can understand why my mom wouldn't crave them and I would never order them myself. Based on your personal preference for spiciness, let this give you an idea of the level of spiciness that could be added to your food unless you request your dish to be less spicy. Recommend with caveat re spiciness.

I…read morethought it was amazing, but wanted to hold off on a review until I had gone in a more sensible mindset to verify the deliciousness. Went yesterday with my very picky husband; It's official, we're a fan! We don't like noise or crowds, so we went on a Sunday evening. I've seen them swamped before, but was delighted to only have two other diners in the restaurant. It was quiet and peaceful, and the waitress was very pleasant. The food was fast, and it was DELICIOUS. We like simple foods with lots of flavor. I got chicken enchiladas with rice and beans, my husband got a smothered beef burrito. We both loved our meals; Not a bunch of random veggies in the meat, just meat, food, and sauce. That's how we like it. Food came out very quickly. We used to frequent El Vaquero, but they've really been going down hill for the last few years. If you used to enjoy El Vaq but have been disappointed lately, give Cinco a try. They've got the same simple but delicious flavors, executed better.

I feel sorry for the people in this town and positive reviewers as they all obviously don't know what good Mexican food tastes like. I won't be back to this so called Mexican restaurant!! Ps.. Keep the .50 cents as not looking at that gross building a 2nd time is worth the loss!

I didn't understand what she meant because that is obviously not true, and her answer was very unclear. Based on that, I ordered two steak tacos and two al pastor tacos along with two beers. The total came to $50, which I find hard to believe. The "Street Tacos Meal" is listed as $9.99, yet for some reason, they added a $3.00 upcharge for the steak and then charged $8.50 for two additional street tacos. I thought I was ordering the meal; how did I end up spending $21.49 on four tacos with rice and beans when the advertised price was $9.99? This doesn't add up, and the staff was extremely vague when I was placing my order. While the food was okay, the al pastor was very fatty. Given the price and the lack of clarity, I won't be coming back.
