The food here was excellent. I visited with a group of friends for lunch and ordered the chicken quesadilla à la carte, which was delicious. Everyone else in my party thoroughly enjoyed their meals as well. The service was quick, and the employees were incredibly kind and respectful. The restaurant was clean and had a wonderful atmosphere--it was lively with plenty of customers, yet still relatively quiet enough for us to talk easily. Highly recommended! read more

I hate that I can't leave a better review of this restaurant but everything was just sort of blah. The food was unseasoned and really didn't taste like anything at all. The restaurant itself was nice, pretty murals on the wall and clean. But the service and taste of food left much to be desired. I know for a fact if I came back to the area I wouldn't come back to this particular restaurant. read more

We din't want to go out and drive so we ordered out . Yes cinco de Mayo had the cinco de mayo special. Beef ribs chorizo, chicken and steak.N shrimp It came with Mexican rice, refried beans and a side of lettuce tomato and sour cream. The ribs were not great , to thin not enough meat to much connected tissue, any ways the rest of the meats were out of this world the sauce at the bottom was to die for savory delicious goodness. Yes all the goodness of the thin peppers and onions wow it was amazing. My wife's fajita taco salad taco salad was a work of art it not only looked great and tasted yummy full of chicken thin slices of onions and peppers another great dish . Like we say Que Rico Les quedó todo . read more

Really tasty food; not quite getting the iffy reviews here. We get takeout from them all the time and you can pretty much point at the menu and know the food's going to be good. Street style tacos, fajitas, Mexican corn, the steak fries (so delicious!) salads, burritos--all of its is tasty and fresh, all the portions are decently sized, and you can get jamaica! Check it out and enjoy. read more

We chose to celebrate Cinco de Mayo at Cinco de Mayo. We expected a crowd so we're not surprised by a 30 minute wait. They had an outside DJ which helped pass the time. Once seated there was a long delay in being greeted by our waitress and given the usual chips and salsa. Our drink orders also took longer than normal but once they arrived we were pleased with the quality as usual. Our food was also very good so overall the night wasn't a big disappointment. read more

The waitress was great.. the food was mediocre at best, our search for a decent Mexican place continues

Stopped here for a quick bite. We loved the wall art and all of the decor. Service was friendly! Corn was excellent. read more

The waiter was the only good part of this. He was kind. We told them several times that every dish was so salty we could barely eat any of our food. Was told that's how the seasoning is. We all said no to go boxes because it was not good. Very sad had been good before read more

happy hour, 2 for $10. ONLY LIME apparently. They said strawberry would be a little extra.. thinking only a dollar or two. No, they charged me for the the full drink 4 times. I told them many times, I wanted happy hour drinks. So if it's not included just let me know, no worries. But instead they charged full price for premium margs... I just got house margs with strawberry flavoring. i would have done lime if i knew it wasn't happy hour and an additional $20 first time in my life 0 dollar tip :( read more

Place was fun for cinco de mayo. Wait times were short. Dishes are packed with flavor and huge portions. Lots of parking available. Price are very fare. Great service. read more

We've been craving Mexican and decided on Cinco de Mayo this evening. We were a party of 6 and were seated immediately. The waiter who greeted us was extremely personable and you could tell he enjoyed his job. He took drink and appetizers orders. I had the jalapeño margarita - it was delicious with just the right amount of spice! We also opted for the obligatory queso and guacamole (add a side of fresh jalapeños to make the quac even better!). For dinner I ordered the tacos al pastor - Mexican style with corn tortillas, onions, cilantro, and a sauce the menu described as a hot sauce. Loved the tacos - didn't care for the sauce. It was more of a tomatillo ... I opted for Cholula. While there are several Mexican places in the area, this definitely ranks among the top two when we have a hankering. read more

Walked in on a Saturday night and found a little party off the highway. They had a little tent up for the drizzle and were pumping live music with salsa dancing for the regulars. It was like being at a bar in Old San Juan! The exterior events were unexpected, but a nice setup for opening the door to the amazing artwork on every wall. Visually, the party continued and kudos on getting up in the lofts to paint all the details. However, it was audible inside for anyone who didn't want to hear the DJ while eating. The service was attentive, but to the point or blunt (he was just a kid). The food was clearly crafted from a labor of love. I had fish tacos that were simple, properly cooked, tender, and not salty. The toppings and the heat were just right for my palate. I would come back just for these. My companion had steak tacos that had chunks of char-grilled skirt steak (with crunchy edges of burnt fat). I always appreciate it when the chef/owner doesn't cut corners on quality. Yes, the steak and fish were better than tacos in most coastal towns. Thank you for being yourselves and sharing your more than your food! read more

I had the worst fajita I ever had,a pile of thin strips of chicken and beef,dry and chewy,4 small dried up shrimp,it looked like some kind of Chinese chop suey,will never go back to that place again read more

First I must say I go there one to two x's a week,food has always been just ok. Tonight I noticed they charge 3.5% for debit card when I questioned it all of a sudden no speaks english, the MOD was nasty,the bartender was nasty. People when you use your debit card it is cash and against the law to charge for the usage. No one seemed to care so guess what I didn't either,I paid my bill and said I will never be back and no response. I will pass this on to everyone I know. read more

Fish tacos is so bland and ugly. They need to add some salsa, cabbage or something. More creativity is needed for the fish tacos. Their chili is delicious. The stuffed poblano pepper is good of you add beed to it. The salsa could be better. Seems like they do not roast their tomatoes, garlic, tomatillo or onion for the salsa. The salsa gets like a C- from me. read more

Delicious food and great portions. Our server Alexa was diligent, courteous and always prompt with a refill...outstanding service! Definitely recommend. read more

Ordered dinner from Cinco de Mayo in Palm Coast. The most horrible excuse for Mexican food. I ordered a burrito. I can usually got two meals out of a burrito. What they sent me was a terrible tiny ground beef enchilada.... that they call a burrito. So lame. That with some salsa and chips and a soda was over thirty dollars, delivered by Grubhub. I ordered from them last month. It was the same sad terrible excuse for Mexican food. Any restaurant can have a bad day so I decided to give them another chance. My bad. Thirty dollars worth of real Mexican food would have left me with two or three meals. These guys are just awful. read more

It's usually great but I guess not the day we ordered out. Worst ever don't even want to give them another chance it wasn't good the 3 of us said it was awful read more

The service is great, the menu is extensive and the food is WONDERFUL! When I came in the aroma reminded me of my daughter's kitchen! The fajita quesadilla was delicious, the beef and bean quesadilla my husband ordered was gone in no time! We will be back! read more

It is a nice cozy restaurant and it was an amazing service. The food was also great flavor, overall great experience

We went for lunch today and we were extremely disappointed. What kind of restaurant doesn't have ANY taco shells or frozen Margaritas? The soggy pastry shell wrapped around the beef was un chewable. It was like rubber. The rest of the meal and my husband's meal was watery and tasteless. The worst part was that the server didn't try to make amends at all. We are locals and we won't be back. read more

Enjoyed and wonderful dinner at Cinco de Mayo with our guest from San Diego. Husband and I ordered our usual choice the Mexican street tacos Al Pastor our guest had the chicken enchiladas in Mole' sauce. He commented that the Molé was exceptionally tasteful. Call three of us living in Southern California frequented south of the border eating for years and Cinco de Mayo is a very authentic to Mexican cuisine. By the way, ask for the waiter Leo, he is an exceptional server. read more

The food was really good until I found long hair in it, my husband told me not to say anything I have not been there since, I strongly recommend using hairnets when handling food read more

My favorite in Flagler County. Good salsa and guacamole. Love the taco salad! Friends love to go there!

I don't do reviews, but this was extraordinary. I made an online order but had accidentally ordered from JaX instead of Palm Coast. So when I showed up with my 2 year old daughter in tow to pick up my meal they were blindsided. But the incredible greeter made it right and had my daughter and I's dinner made in 10 minutes without any extra charge. They were just absurdly kind and the food was so good! read more

Ordered Hawaiian fajitas to go with one extra tortilla, left a $3 tip only to drive home and see they didn't include a single tortilla!!not gonna drive thirty minutes to get them. Check your to go orders. Won't be back. read more

Cinco de Mayo just opened a few days ago with very good reviews. We decided to go between dinner and lunch to avoid crowds. For opening week they definitely have some kinks to work out with staffing and servers learning the menu/ first time becoming a server. It took sometime for us to get drinks and food but when it arrived we were pleasantly surprised. The Margarita I got was strong but delicious and my wife's 32oz beer was huge!!!! As for the food everything was delicious, the fajita was for one but had enough to easily split and for my burrito it was big enough to split also. It definitely took time to receive our orders but it was worth the wait. Hopefully they work out the small issues and continue to be this delicious. read more

We were seated promptly and the waiter was very courteous and took our order right away. It was my first time coming here and the atmosphere and great indoor visual appeal matched the excellent food and service. The prices are very reasonable and I won't go to any other Mexican restaurant in Palm Coast except this one. Dinner combos $10.99 are plentiful when the competition mostly charges $14-$18 per dish. Well done! I like the location and will be back soon! read more

Grabbed a takeout order last night. Went with the old standard, king quesadilla, and got a large order of guacamole. EXCELLENT!! It was a great experience: called them with my order, picked it up 15 minutes later and enjoyed dinner before we went out for a committee meeting st night. read more

Usually everything is good but this restaurant has been going downhill! Service is always great. I ordered a cheese pablano chili relleno and Mexican street corn. BOTH were COLD; not even temperature throughout. 2 warm bites then COLD throughout! Didn't mention it because no one around to tell-didn't ask how food was! If you enjoy cold Mexican food go for it! read more

I was told to go to Cinco de Mayo from a coworker and it did not disappoint. Food was great, have a lot of options for adults and kids!

This was our first visit. We really enjoyed our meal, it was great! The service was wonderful and the server was incredible as well. The atmosphere was very cozy and warm!! We will defiantly be frequenting this restaurant!! Happy Customer from Palm Coast read more

I don't know how to rate this. Service is really nice. I love the staff. The restaurant is clean and spotless. For Palm Coast, the Mexican food is on the better end. It is not San Diego grade food. Mexican food in Palm Coast reminds me of Mexican food in Minnesota back in the 90's. Cinco de Mayo is better than Chichis or Chili's. But it's in that category. I give 3 stars, because I grew up eating homemade Mexican food and knowing the good restaurants. But, when I am craving my food.. it's ok and it does the job. As someone living locally, I end up going here often because I know what to expect and it's a crowd pleaser for those that didn't grow up on Mexican. Don't order the fish tacos. Seriously, don't do it. The Diablo shrimp is spicy, actually spicy. I've had the chimichanga subbed with carne asada. The rice and refried beans are good. The chimichanga is on the smaller end, but that's probably what I'll order next time. I was happy with my cocktails. read more

Cinco De Mayo is the very best Mexican Food in Northern Florida. My wife and I have eaten there many times and we just love the food and service. We moved to Florida from California, (no not those people) and we think we have had some pretty great Mexican food there, but Cinco De Mayo is every bit as good as the best Mexican food we have ever had. Please don't take our word for it, try it for yourself and I'm sure you'll agree. read more

Service was so slow. Three of us were in there for 2 hours and one of us didn't even get our food. After waiting for the food to come out the server said "oh, the chef said we are out of what you ordered". I got something else but it was brought out to the table after the other people were finished. The food had no spice at all. Asked for queso but when it came out it was huge and when we got the bill we found out why... $11 for queso?! read more

Take out but, still.. prices to high for the quality of the food + quantity It's NOT an authentic Mexican food read more

Nice place to drop in we enjoyed the atmosphere, food and service an additional Mexican food place in the area read more
