I got the chicken combo platter (quesadilla, tostada, and taco), and it was delicious! the tostada was definitely the best of the three, only because the taco mess missing some toppings (it was just chicken- no cilantro or onions) and the quesadilla was just a tad too cheesey. nothing terrible though, it was all still great! my sister got the enchiladas and she said they were great, and my mom got the chicken tacos (she had the cilantro and onions on hers, but she still thought it was missing a sauce/cheese of some sort. also, something to note, they were out of guacamole when we went, which is kind of strange but what can you do? overall, our waitress was very kind and sweet, the place feels very homey, and it's a great gem in oc! read more

I got the steak burrito for takeout and they were generous with the steak which I was happy about! Everything was flavorful even the rice and beans in the burrito. It was ready when they said it was going to be and came with chips which was nice! read more

This was my first time trying Cinco de Mayo and the food was great! Unfortunately I did not get to see the atmosphere and decor since we did take out, but from pictures I've seen online the restaurant looks very cute & cozy inside. I ordered 3 Carne Asada tacos topped with cilantro and onion. Loved them and they were just as you'd expect from an authentic Mexican restaurant. My fiancé ordered a chicken burrito which was huge (so big she was able to save half for lunch the next day) and looked delicious. We had one slight mishap with our order (we ordered fajitas and they gave us a fajita quesadilla instead) but it was still enjoyable so no harm, no foul. I'm not in Ocean City often but I would definitely eat here again if I'm in the area and craving Mexican food. read more

Meal: Chicken Enchiladas with Mole Sauce - Rice and beans are plain but an enjoyable classic - enchilada chicken is a little grainy but mole sauce is excellent and bringing alot together. Overall enjoyable meal read more

This is a small storefront restaurant that packs a punch. Call ahead for seating (due to size) or, better yet, order out and enjoy your food by walking the sort distance to the beach. Authentic Mexican food with quality service. Everything our group of three had was delicious. I subtracted one star due to size of restarting small and thus there being a wait. read more

Cinco de Mayo - Restaurant Entrance - Mexican Near Me - Ocean City, New Jersey

I have done take out from here few times now and tried three different items. Everything has been amazing the service is great and they are always very helpfull read more

Cinco de Mayo is a cute budget friendly Mexican restaurant in ocean city. The service was great, food came out fast and was delicious. We ended up trying Cinco de Mayo for an early dinner. It was not crowded and our food came out about 10 mins after ordering. Their menu has many varieties and has a separate section for vegetarian options. We ordered the sopes and chicken enchiladas and both were great. I'm normally not a salsa verde fan but Cinco de Mayos was delicious. We enjoyed our time here and the meal and look forward to returning. Things to know: -The place is very small so call ahead to see if they have a table. If not they have takeout so you can still enjoy. -street parking is available -they had two dessert options (flan and tres leches) but sadly we were too full to try either. Next time for sure! -they do take credit card read more

We were all so pleased with this cute place! There was a little wait on a Saturday night but it was totally worth it! Yummy guacamole and chips appetizer. I ordered Horchata and it was just perfect. Chimichanga platter was delicious! Everything was super authentic and tasty. My sister enjoyed her quesadilla and my Dad loved the presentation of his platter. This restaurant is definitely busy but has great team work. We will definitely be heading back! read more

This place was delicious! It's a cute little small restaurant so maybe consider take out during the evenings. We ate inside and the service was excellent. Our food was delicious. Their tacos are great and so are their entrees. Great prices too. read more

Good food. Great prices. But don't believe them when they say the guac is fresh. It arrived at the table 2 min after ordering it.

One of our favorite OC restaurants but they really dropped the ball. Apparently gave our order to someone else and have been waiting over 45 minutes for them to remake it. Originally was supposed to be ready after 35 minute so instead of eating at 7 pm we'll be lucky to eat at 8. Should have remade our order immediately instead of putting us at the end. Won't return; too many other places to get a good meal read more

Cheerful servers who were very accommodating. Our orders (huevos ranchero and beef quesadillas) were both very good. Pleasant eating area with table coverings (Mexican-ish fabric covered by clear 1950s-ish plastic slipcover-ish clear flexible vinyl(?)) that weren't overly appealing. We'll go back. Nice Sunday lunch. read more

TL;DR: make sure you ask for what you want, the food is OK, the guacamole is overpriced for what you get. My wife and I arrived in OCNJ to have a long weekend and she wanted to try some Mexican. I ordered a Diet Coke and was handed a warm can. At least give me a glass with some ice (ironically, my wife asked for a glass with ice with her already cold spring water without issue). The guacamole was good (nice cilantro flavor) but very small (about 3/4 cup) for an appetizer. I asked if their buffalo wings were breaded and told "no they aren't"; great I'm on keto so I ordered some and got a plate of heavily batter breaded wings. I tried to cut away the breading but wound up not eating them. Now the entrees were good, we had bifstec ranchero and chicken enchilada with steak and mole sauce. All in all it wasn't bad but many things could be better more on the service than the food. read more

Their service is fast, their restaurant is clean, and their food is fantastic! The taco salad is stellar.

Cinco de Mayo is a solid choice for Ocean City NJ...right now because of COVID19 they are offering pickup only. Our large order for 10 was placed over the phone and ready on time 45 minutes later. I love that they include guacamole with almost all of their entrees. I had a Jalapeño and Chicken quesadilla, it was very good but it was a bit light on the protein. I had a piece of their carnitas burrito, again light on the protein and heavy on their rice. The prices are more than reasonable, I would definitely be willing to pay more for more protein. Their rice and beans are top notch while their hot sauce is homemade and spicy. I would not hesitate to order from them again. read more

Cinco de Mayo - Chicken enchiladas verde. Fiesta salad. Chips and guac, and two types of salsa! - Mexican Near Me - Ocean City, New Jersey

If you are looking for delicious, homemade Mexican food, Cinco de Mayo is the place to go. This is by far the best Mexican spot in Ocean City. Service is very friendly and fast, and the dishes are loaded with fresh ingredients. A hidden gem on West Street, we stopped by for lunch. Before long the tables were filled and the food was flowing out of the kitchen - amazing fragrant and sizzling plates. I had the Pollo a la Mexicano - a dish of chicken, fresh tomatoes, onions and jalapeños. The rest of the crew had tacos and quesadillas. The menu was friendly for both young and old, spicy and mild, locals and vacationers. We will certainly be going back for more! read more

Place is bottom tier Mexican. Had high expectations as my aunt recommended the place, disappointed to say the least. However the staff was very friendly. Would recommend the burrito. The quesadillas and fajitas were very mid. The place was packed so maybe they were rushed. read more

Cinco de Mayo - Carne Asada Tacos - Mexican Near Me - Ocean City, New Jersey

Worst restaurant experience ever. I ordered tacos, no cheese or dairy, just beans, lettuce, tomato. Got home it was covered in cheese. Called and tey said they'd make it again. Picked up ordered got home only to get a mouth full of ground beed. Vegan here, Awful Called and they said I'd have to come in the next day at 11 to speak with owner. Go there and am told owner is not in. After much discussion and the were so rude today and yesterday on the phone a man comes out of the kitchen and tells me I just should have spit out the beef. He was laughing at me when I told him I couldn't eat the meat or cheese due to a medical condition. Terrible customer service. No respect for customers. I. should have trusted my instincts and gone to Bandanas in Wildwood. Worth the drive for great food and service. I had no dinner last night and was treating horribly by the staff and owner. Stay far away. Food sucks service is worse! Wish I could add zero stars they don't even deserve one star! read more

Favorite Mexican restaurant around OC. Great portion, great quality. Service is quick and workers are nice. Ambiance is nice in there as well, has beautiful art and great vibes if you're looking for good authentic Mexican food. I will be going to this place very often. read more

Yes yes yes. This is everything you want it to be. Delicious food, huge portions, reasonable prices. I can't say enough about this little gem in Ocean City. We had shrimp sautéed with peppers and onions which was so flavorful! My husband loved his steak burrito. The people working there were friendly.

First time eating at the restaurant. I ordered shrimp fajita & my husband got sopes. Excellent! Very delicious. Great service and served quickly. Also appetizer was cocktel de camarones. Delicious and large quantity. We'll be back and will continue takeout too. Definitely a 5 * read more

Very average food. First time and always like to order a basic staple like chicken enchiladas. The chicken filling was dry as sawdust with little flavor. Side of beans was like soup with a few beans added. Not sure if I'll return and take another shot. read more

We've been coming to Cinco de Mayo since they opened around 12 years ago. I've gone through the entire menu and you can't go wrong - everything is great! The enchiladas rojas are one of my favorites - the mole sauce is perfect. Chile Relleno and quesadillas are also very good. I've had Mexican food all over and this is one of my all time favorites. You won't be disappointed. read more

Great food at a good price. Cinco de Mayo is one of the best take out options in Ocean City.

Just ordered take out and it was delicious. We got chicken sopes and a veggie burrito. Highly recommend.

Worst service ever! Food was dry! Not that clean either! Don't waste your money or time! read more

Food is delicious, had good options of beverages, and overall lovely interior setting

Husband and I tried it out for a Date Night. Cute little place and was packed but definitely lost a star because there was no air conditioning and it was hot in there. It was cooler outside at 80 degrees. We got the guacamole and chips for an app. The guacamole was very good and flavorful! I got a Chicken Chimichanga which was amazing. The chicken was perfectly seasoned and mmm melt in your mouth so delicious! I did not like their rice and beans. My husband got a steak burrito and he said the same that it was delicious. The steak was juicy and beans, cheese, and sour cream were just perfect. He also got beef tostados and said they were also very good and crunchy. We would definitely go back and try something else. read more

Average food made fresh. Came at 11 AM, 1st customers, so we were surprised it took 35 minutes to get food in an empty restaurant. They're using shredded cheddar instead of cojita cheese & missing good pico, guac & chips. Food was ok, no need to return. read more

Favorite Mexican food on the island. Everything is always a 10/10. I got the fiesta salad and loved it. The horchata is only $2.50 and is the best horchata! the burritos are always delicious too. read more

Service was very pleasant and our food was amazing! So flavorful and will definitely return!

We spent this past weekend in Ocean City, and looking for a place to eat out nothing was open due to the season was over and covid. We found this place near the Acme and we decided to give it a try. The food was authentic and delicious. My shrimp fajita and rise was perfect, as well as, the beef tacos, enchiladas, and burritos my family all ordered. Would definitely eat there again. read more

Food is 5 stars. The in dining experience is not. Strongly suggest takeout only. Wait for a table is typically long during peak times due to limited number of tables. Very small place inside and feels a little dirty. But the food was very good. Would definitely order takeout in the future. read more

Amazing fajitas! I'll definitely come back next trip to the beach! Place is small and nothing fancy but do reasonably priced for OC
