Definitely Americanized Mexican food. Nonetheless, the dishes are tasty, just a bit on the dry side. The aguas frescas are clearly powdered. Portions are moderate and prices are fair. The interior is small but clean, and it's located in a shopping center with plenty of parking. Staff was alright overall, though our waitress did seem a bit annoyed since we had some indecisive guests. Decent spot, but nothing extraordinary. 3.6 stars for me. read more

I went here to celebrate my friend's birthday and I was quite disappointed. We both ordered tacos, a combination of shrimp and steak. Yes, the meat had flavor but the only condiments which were served with the tacos were beans and rice. There wasn't any slaw or sauce in the shells. For $20, I expected more. This is the first time I ordered tacos and it was only the meat and shell. read more

Cinco de Mayo - Shrimp Tacos - Bars Near Me - Westminster, Maryland

Ordered online. Consistent text messages received concerning my order. Food was ready when they said it would be ready. I ordered the Chimichanga Bites & Dip. They were fried perfectly and were delicious. The accompanying chipotle cheese sauce was excellent. The main dish was Carne Asada Tacos (Grilled steak). The steak was semi-tender with good seasoning and taste. The fixings were fresh, and the serving sizes were in proportion to the taco sizes. The staff was professional. I have had lunch at the restaurant once before, years ago, back then, the ambiance was casual and inviting. Looking into the restaurant this time, nothing has changed. read more

We are fairly new to the area still and moved from out of state. We are huge foodies and have traveled many countries. This is is the second time I have ordered from them and each time I ordered birria because I liked them when I have tried them at previous restaurants. First I ordered it as birria quesadilla and it was good but the meat was a bit dry. Second time I orderer it as tacos and the meat again was pretty dry but the cheese helped with that and the consomme of course. Which the sauce is delicious. This time I ordered the Al Pastor Tacos tacos because I love them. They are my fav and type od tacos and I ordered them to try. All I can say is that is NOT al pastor, sadly. So it has bbq sauce on it and the meat wa extremely dry. They are a good taco if you ordered it as whatever they are trying to go for but it is not al pastor. The rice and beans are not too bad. A tad dry rice and the chips and salsa is what you normally would be served when you sit in at a restaurant. All in all its not bad! I also ordered the chimichanga bites the first go around and it was yummy! i enjoy a good chimichanga fried and the sauce that came with it was absolutely delicious! read more

My husband and I absolutely recommend this restaurant!!! My husband and I ate here yesterday and the experience was phenomenal! We expected a longer wait time since it was a Saturday evening but nope we were seated right away. I love the colorful decor and the televisions to catch up on some college football games. We were greeted by ONE OF THE BEST WAITERS EVER JONATHAN!!! Jonathan was very friendly, patient, menu both food/drink knowledgeable. I wasn't sure of what drink to order after finding out about the millionaire drink (wink) too pricy for me last night but will return once the government shutdown ends to order the millionaire drink (another wink). Jonathan asked if he could suggest another drink for me and I obliged. When I tell you that was THE BEST MARGARITA I'VE EVER HAD! I the chicken/beef enchiladas w/rice and veggies. I can't really remember what my husband had but it looked similar to an enchilada but was steak and that steak was tender and seasoned soooo good! We had cinnamon churros with vanilla ice cream and whipped cream oh my goodness so delicious! This will be one of my regular places to eat and drink. Thank you Jonathan for making our night a wonderful night it so hard getting good service let alone good food out here each day. I am a federal worker going through this mess and I like many others must watch every penny I spend, but last night I can honestly say, I made an excellent choice patronizing this restaurant yesterday evening. Thanks again for the wonderful food, drinks and food service. See you soon! read more

Food was incredible! Tasty and very filling! Definitely recommend if you're looking for some authentic food. Service was great, they were very kind and prompt with delivering the food to the table. Cute little place, with music. A little small but it fits the theme. read more

Cinco de Mayo - Fajita Quesadilla - Bars Near Me - Westminster, Maryland

I went here over the weekend for the first time and celebrated my birthday dinner! Great portions of everything with an attentive and friendly staff. Food was pretty good along with the quick service. I loved the guacamole. Pretty extensive menu across the board as far as drinks and food go. Wouldn't mind coming back when I'm in the area! read more

Cinco remains a solid experience. Food isn't straight from Oaxaca or Chihuahua, but it's still flavorful and well prepared. Yes, the salsa is a little bland but the chips are good and they will keep the bowl filled. I like the Shrimp and Avocado salad-a tasty light meal. Taco salad is another option that's not too heavy. Enchiladas are good. My friend likes the carnitas here, she says the pork is tender. Westminster is not a hub for Mexican restaurants, but if your looking for decent service snd solid food/drinks, come here for a nice time. read more

We eat there quite often, food is very good. Last couple of times we have eaten there. The portions seem to be a little bit smaller and if you get the guacamole to go, it's the same price as the table guacamole but a smaller portion. Need to do better with portions !! read more

disgustingly greasy tacos that looked like a mess and hardly resembles a auth taco, no cilantro or onions on them, just greasy meat on a tortilla throw together without a care in the world, if I could give a 1 star review I would. save your money and taste buds and never eat here! read more

Cinco de Mayo - very yummy. Birria tacos . - Bars Near Me - Westminster, Maryland

12/2/2. We got an order delivered by door dash from the Westminister, MD Cinco de Mayo that was about $70.00, the food was fantastic! One of our items ordered was the ultimate fajitas, unfortunately the wraps and sour cream for the taco salad were not in the bag when delivered. We ordered on a Saturday night from our job, when we called and told them what had happened and we could not leave that is why we paid $70.00 for door dash to deliver. An employee actually hopped in the car and brought wraps and sour cream and a gift certificate to our job. Exceptional customer service from the restaurant, to many times people fail to let everyone know the positives. I cannot say enough about how much my co-worker and I appreciated the above and beyond that this restaurant went to to help us enjoy our dinner the only way we could. The food was authentic hot and fresh and absolutely delicious! read more

My sister and I were in the area and decided to try this restaurant. We are both big Mexican food fans. It was delicious! In fact my sister said it may have been the best Mexican meal she's ever had! She ordered a shrimp dish from the house specials and I ordered Chori Pollo. Both dishes were amazing. The ambiance was great and it had a bustling crowd even though it was a Wednesday night. Also don't let the fact it's in a strip mall turn you away. The drinks were huge - my sister ordered a margarita that also had sangria in it. The chips and salsa were good as well. read more

Cinco de Mayo - Chori Polli. Beans came on separate plate. - Bars Near Me - Westminster, Maryland

The food here is ALWAYS excellent. Their arroz con pollo is the best anywhere, but everything on the menu always tastes so fresh and delicious. They're awesome with little kids - we had a few with us - and the drinks are top notch. Service is amazing. We don't live close enough to go every week, but if we did, we would. read more

Stopped by during lunch therefore there wasn't any wait time. The decor is very pretty, I think visiting during dinner might be ideal. During my visit today, the staff decided to change lightbulbs. Might be something to do before opening. Food: Chips and salsa arrived quickly but nothing to rave about. The carne asada (dish and tacos) as well as mar & tierra are definitely something to enjoy. Meat was tender, everything cooked to perfection. Desserts were good too, I recommend tres amores if you don't know what to get. Note about the dessert: ask to decrease the amount of whipped cream. I enjoy it but it was a bit much. Churros were warm and delicious. Last note, there were some annoying flies here and there trying to share my meal. Overall great customer service, good main dishes. Will be back for dinner. read more

The quality & quantity of food was perfect. The prices were a little rich for my taste, but as I said the quality was above average. read more

Craving Mexican so I gave this place a try. Save your money and go to Taco Bell! Chips were okay but salsa was like ketchup. Ordered chicken enchiladas, wait staff warned of hot plate which was. I only wish the food was hot. Chicken was cold in the center, tough and extremely dry. Couldn't cut an enchilada with a fork! Flavor was bland and more than ever I regretted my decision to try this place. Lastly, piped in music was dated and loud which added insult to an already disappointing flavorless lunch. If I can save one person from making the same mistake I made, then this review is worth it. This is just another tired strip mall Mexican restaurant that needs to be shut down. By the way, I am from Colorado and we know Mexican dining. I knew it wasn't going to compare to my home town favorite places but this place insults good taste. read more

Never returning. It was better as Mezcal. Drinks seem watered down, portions are smaller, they seem more about heeding customers in and out than providing quality dining experience. Had shrimp tacos which were awful. Only the nachos were semi-decent. read more

We are outside in the open air tent. Server was very attentive and suggested a dish as I was uncertain what to order. I can't remember what it was called but it was a plate of veggies and chicken in a delightful cheese sauce. Huge bowl of house-made chips and salsa to munch on while we waited the short time for the food. The Baja burrito my husband ordered was great. Can't wait to go back! read more

I visited on a Friday night, so yes, they were busy. Luckily, I was able to secure a chair at the bar fairly quickly. The restaurant was clean and it looked like they had plenty if staff. The margarita was average. The wait for the chips and salsa was long. Very long. The salsa was ok. Decent thickness, so it stuck to chips plenty well. The flavor of the salsa was on the bland side. Not bad, just ok. I had the carnitas plate. Ordered the charro beans and received black beans. Couldn't eat them as they were beyond salty. The carnitas were at least 4 billion times saltier than the beans. Completely inedible. How this stuff passes for Mexican food, or even food for that matter is a wonder. Someone should be testing the food. I can not believe that passed muster. Way too manybother options to waste money there. read more

My family and ordered food from this establishment this past weekend. Everything was about average for Mexican food. However the chicken and steak fajita quesadilla was oily. Overall it was decent food, but not anything to go out of the way for to get. read more

Cinco de Mayo is a perfectly adequate Mexican restaurant. For Carroll county it's probably the good stuff. But I expect more from my Mexican places. Even as a vegetarian I can usually can get more. They did have a small vegetarian section with about four entrées. But they mostly substituted Mexican mashed potatoes for cheese. While surprising and unexpected mashed potatoes do not make up for cheese in a chili relleno. The menu said they were poblano peppers stuffed with potatoes but it was more like miniature peppers with a glob of mashed potatoes on them. The salsa was adequate. The service was very good. In fact the service was the highlight of the visit. read more

Came by for lunch with co-workers and staff were friendly and service good. Tried the al pastor tacos and one taco had enough meat for three. The portions were large and I was full after one!! We all tried something different and all agreed that the food was tasty, hot and well prepared. It was a good adventure. Definitely worth adding to the repeat list. read more

Cinco de Mayo - Outside - Bars Near Me - Westminster, Maryland

My family continually loves Cinco de Mayo! It has the best atmosphere+Mexican food in the Westminster area. Free chips and salsa (best salsa!), food comes out fast, and the atmosphere is decorative and fun! You cannot go wrong with any dish - and if any dish is very spicy, they will "warn" you! I usually get something different each time I go, and I've never been disappointed. They do charge quite a bit for extras (sour cream, tortillas, etc), so just be mindful of that. read more

If you like spicy the diablers tacos are awesome. Food is decent you can definitely rake up a Big Bill but you will get a lot of food like their appetizers desserts everything is very good that I've had there the service is great the place will get busy fast at dinner time. read more

They have pretty good margaronas (coronaritas)! Their queso is so different from anywhere else's: kinda like the white velvets cheese sauce but actually pretty good not gonna lie. A lot better than salsaritas which used to be at that location, but I still prefer more authentic Mexican food like Del Huerto 5 minutes down the street read more

You're greeted at the door with a friendly smile. I had the Carnitas Chimichangas fried and they were delicious. So much I had to bring one home. My husband had the steak fajitas and what a pile of meat and veggies! Our server he was fine but very soft spoken. The owner or manager came around and asked how everything was and seemed pleased we found everything delicious. A very nice little place. Eating lunch here today and it's awesome. Great server, great food and drink. I just added another star because I love this place!! read more

I'm giving up on this place after numerous recent attempts. We ate there several years ago and the food was amazing. It's gone totally downhill. The food is poor. The staff is not attentive. This place needs to shutdown and try again. It was so good and in recent months it's been terrible. We aren't returning until there is new management and we hear better reviews about the restaurant. read more

A friend and I dined at Cinco de May of this week for the first, last, and only time. A cheese quesadilla made with a 10" flour tortilla (worth maybe 10 cents), and about 2 oz of cheese (worth maybe 40 cents) folded in the tortilla, along with a dollop of sour cream for $12.99 is completely outrageous. A glass of iced tea was more than I have paid anywhere, ever at $3.25, and no refill was offered. While I understand that some food items have increased in price due to inflation, this is absurd. The server appeared to be very unhappy about being there and it reflected in the service, or lack thereof, that was provided. It was not a quality dining experience. read more

Oh how I wish I could have posted pictures but we ordered to go and those pics wouldn't have given this food any justice. I ordered the make your own combo with the beef Enchilado, chicken Quesadilla and beef Chile Relleno. Great value because I like having a little of everything. Ended up getting two meals out of it. Everything was fantastic. My aunt got the fajitas with steak and shrimp which she liked as well. Chips and salsa that came with it were so fresh. I can't wait to go back and eat in. read more

The staff was very friendly and energetic. The food was great. The alcohol was strong, (ha who doesn't love that ) so, keep that in mind when ordering any drinks. Wish I had taken pictures but wasn't thinking about rating my experience at the time sorry. They offer to carry out and dine in. Prices weren't too bad for the quality of food they prepare. I would say this is a place to have a get-together business or personal. Enjoy please rate thanks . read more

I read the reviews after we ate here. Searching for a place to eat and was hungry for this type of food. We were here at off time (2pm) and we were seated within seconds of walking in the door. Waitress was able to give some recommendations. One of us got a margarita, a little on the strong side, but was good. Don't drink these a lot so I can't compare to others. Food was quick from order to table. Both of us were full when we left and would come back here again. Chips and Salsa to start was a good taste, not spicy hot, but really good taste. Chicken Chipotle salad, was really good. If it was a perfect world, they would have sprinkled cheese on it as well. But really great taste. Leftovers were also good the next day. I would go back here again when in the area. No questions. Staff seemed helpful, business was clean. Decorations were pretty cool too. read more

Stopped in for a quick lunch. We had the Nacho Supreme and chips and salsa. The chips were fresh cooked. The salsa was very good. It was not very spicy yet had the old style Mexican flavors. The nachos were ok. They were soggy on the bottom but the chicken and beef toppings were flavorful. The best part of the dining experience was the staff and atmosphere. There was Mexican music in the background and the decor reminded me of eating at a traditionally Mexican. restaurant. It was a good experience and We would recommend it to anyone who asked. We will definitely return again. read more
