" I stopped by Cinco de Mayo on a whim and ended up ordering the chicken milanesa torta. It was huge and overflowing with fresh toppings! The green sauce they serve on the side is a game changer; it adds a lovely zest to the meal. I loved the cozy vibe and the fact that it’s not too loud or crowded, which is perfect for a relaxing meal. Overall, an excellent dining experience. Cannot wait to return! " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience was okay. The tacos were a bit bland, especially in comparison to other places I've been to. The server was attentive, which was nice, but overall the food did not impress me as much as I had hoped for. I appreciate the clean atmosphere though, and maybe I’ll give it another chance to try something different on the menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" The food here is just okay. I tried the chicken nachos, which could use more cheese and toppings to really stand out. The atmosphere is nice and it’s a great place to hang out with friends, but the food didn't live up to my expectations. However, they were very nice in making sure customers have a pleasant experience, so that’s a plus. " (*Curated Review*)

" Unfortunately, my experience wasn't as great as I had hoped. The food was decent but lacked that home-cooked flavor I associate with authentic places. Also, I felt the service was a bit slow, although the staff were friendly. I tried the carnitas tacos and a burrito, which were okay but not memorable. I might give it another try someday, but it didn't live up to the hype this time. " (*Curated Review*)

" I wanted to love this restaurant, but I found myself disappointed. I had the chicken fajitas, and while they were decent, the dish felt rushed and lacked that authentic seasoning I wanted. The service was kind, and the ambiance was nice, but sadly, I can't say I’ll be coming back soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" Cinco de Mayo is a fantastic little spot! The ambiance is relaxed, making it a perfect place for casual dining. The tacos absolutely blew me away; they were filled with juicy meat and topped with fresh veggies. I'm all about places that give a complimentary treat, and their carrot cake muffins were delightful! I’ll definitely return to try other dishes. " (*Curated Review*)

" The food was good, but I don't think it lived up to the buzz I had heard. I had a grilled chicken salad which was tasty, but it took too long to arrive at our table. The staff was friendly, but the service could have been improved. I enjoyed the atmosphere, but I might look for other options next time. " (*Curated Review*)
