Just finished up an awesome lunch at Cinco de Mayo in Urbana! Had my favorite skinny margarita with a shot of Grand Marnier on top, sizzling beef fajitas with ALL the fixens and bottomless chips with salsa!! An awesome way to start the weekend! Service is always wonderful and with a smile. The restaurant is impeccably clean and fresh with football/soccer on the screens. Love this local gem! read more

My honest opinion. My server was great. But the food Nasty. I'm sorry but it is.. best thing is the warm chips they bring you. You may say sure looks like you enjoyed your food.. hell anyone would coming off 24 hr water fast. And I broke my fast for this place. Welll I'll begin with the salsa no favor taste like can tomato's with a hint of something spicy. The beans also taste like the can they can out of , didn't taste any pork fat which real Mexican restaurants use. Beef was ok but dripping in oil. The quesadilla was just a quesadilla nothing special just beef and cheese no tomatoes no pico de gallo on the side no sour cream just meat and cheese the enchilada yuck I can't even describe it. I just took a few bites and gave up. read more

Cinco De Mayo - Santo Combo Plate - Mexican Near Me - Urbana, Maryland

Nothing like some fresh steak and chorizo fajitas for your friday night! Great deal and speedy service but making sure it's fresh (if that makes sense). Comes with a side of tortillas, pico de gallo with rice and beans. Along with the complimentary side of chips and salsa this was a great choice for dinner for this place! Would definitely go back to dine in. read more

Overall, we've visited two locations in Cinco De Mayo. The food is consistent, solid, and good. 1. Their salsa (my go-to for South American cuisine) is good but not great. 2. The Guacamole was very good. 3. Overall, the food was good! It is funny, but we actually tried three different parts of their menu. We had Enchiladas, a burrito bowl, and carne asada. Each of them was perfectly prepared, and the extra instruction to not include Sour Cream was respected. (that wasn't me, asking for no sour cream). Overall a solid addition to the lineup! Good food in the Tex-Mex genre! read more

I came here with a group of friends along with our kids. We loved the hospitality of the staff and great service of the bar tender but we weren't satisfied with the food we ordered . We had ordered fish tacos , chicken bowl and a fajita bowl . Honestly, it wasn't exceptional rather mediocre. Taste was bland and I have eaten better Mexican food at a cheaper prices at other places. We ordered Churros with ice cream and a flan. Flan was okayish and churros were very hard. It felt like they werent made fresh and were microwaved . It was really not upto the taste. read more

Update: today I received bean nachos and they had a live fly inside the food container. This will likely be my final order. Grubhub did refund the food, thankfully. read more

This was a nice, authentic, Mexican restaurant. The food was delicious, with very generous portions. We are looking forward to returning, so we can try other menu items... it was SO hard to choose from the wonderful selection. The service was amazing too! Highly recommend! read more

This place it terrible. My husband and I just orders about an hour ago, I ordered cheese enchiladas and a bean burrito. My enchiladas are mushy from the water like "sauce". It's not even a soupy consistency it's straight water. I knew from the looks I was going to hate it, but still gave it a chance. I take the first bite and it's all American cheese ! Same thing with the burrito, it was served rolled like a taco so the beans and cheese where all over the place. Since when is AUTHENTIC Mexican food substitute MEXICAN blend cheese or cheddar for America?? There was no true Mexican feel to this food, truly the most tasteless meal I've ever had. read more

Cinco De Mayo - Cheese enchiladas - Mexican Near Me - Urbana, Maryland

Went here twice in three days while on travel. Got the mix 'n match tacos both times...got chori-pollo, carne asada, and Al pastor the first night and tried the carnitas instead of Al pastor the second night...all were fantastic and looking forward to going back next week when I return. Chips and salsa were great, and Modelo Negra were very cold. Sat at the bar and service was very friendly and attentive. read more

Decided to try it one more time at the request of my friend. Same server who was amazing (if you're reading this, you should go somewhere else that's busy where you'll make more money - keep up the amazing work). Friend got carne asada and the steak was completely raw - they clearly don't know how to prepare steak. I got the chicken quesadilla and the chicken was dry and the tortilla was a greasy mess. I think two chances is all this place will get. read more

This place is amazing! Take it from someone who knows good Mexican food! The service is exceptional! My wife and I call it our secret location for their margaritas. We highly recommend their super Nachos that aren't on the lunch menu but they make it for us regardless! The chicken quesadilla is mouth watering as well! read more

This is Taco Bell with a fancy name. Disgusting food for the price. We used to say "at least the drinks are good". No more!! What was supposed to be a frozen margarita, we literally received a large glass of water with ice and a bottle of corona inside. Zero tequila. Seriously, WTF!!! One can see the Staff is not happy and the waiters have this very indifferent attitude towards the customers. The place was looking very drab and dusty, floor was not swept and the bathroom was grossly unkept. In a larger city the health department would be all over this place. This place is an embarrassment for the town of Urbana and should seriously be shut down. read more

This place is average. We were lucky to get a nice waitress (long brown hair). Although even my 9-year old daughter spotted another waitress literally sneering and eye-rolling at customers and other staff members! Regardless of the staffing, the food and drink was very fast! I was a bit disappointed about having my salad dressing served still in its KRAfT packaging but the salad was otherwise good! The shrimp served in addition was not overly spicy or overlooked! I'd have to agree that the salsa tasted as though it came from a can but they made up for it with the guacamole, which was obviously homemade and not too salty like others I have tasted! My kids loved their quesadillas as well! I think with a few small adjustments, this place could be a repeat visit but for now, I will be going to the new Mexican restaurant in Clarksburg! read more

Cinco De Mayo - Mexican Near Me - Urbana, Maryland

I would say to stay away from this restaurant. Two of my family members got food poisoning after eating there.

Really hoped yelp reviews were worse than it was. Nope. Worst Mexican I have ever eaten. Queso with ground beef was likely watered down white cheese food. No taste of cheese. Enchiladas were barely warm. Believe enchilada sauce was a straight pour from the old El Paso can. Corn tortillas - not flour- were barely warm, thick, pasty - not good. Partners fajitas had beef that looked like how you shred beef to tiny pieces to hide the fat and toughness. Watered down drinks. Price was high for poor quality. Service was minimal. Incredibly warm weather out for this time of year so a clue that the outdoor seating only had 1 party and only 2 other tables with guests inside on a Friday night. Very high ceilings -- into the kitchen view wouldn't normally be considered. However, booth view in main area showed inside kitchen had ladders, main storage including an unused garbage can on top shelf, and yellow ceiling tiles near vents. Not horrible but not appropriate dining view. Put a door or curtain there! Table for two near phone/POS station looked like floor hadn't been touched in weeks - as in not used, not cleaned. For as little as I ate, indigestion. Taco Bell would be more satisfying, and cheaper. read more

This place is the absolute worst! Every single time I order from them, they're never competent enough to get the order right. I guess this is only my fault for continuing to think that "this time they might get it right". I tried calling then for about 35 minutes straight to place an order and one of their "highly trained" staff kept picking up the phone pressing buttons (I assume they thought they were putting the call on hold) then hanging up. Nothing but morons working here. Don't waste your time coming here. The only reason they have business is because they're the ONLY "Mexican" restaurant in the area. Don't waste your time or your money. If I could give them zero stars I would. read more

I really like this place. We've gotten take out a few times and it's consistently good. We'll continue to order our from here, glad it's so close by. read more

The nachos had cheese :l and there was like 4 pieces of shrimp in there the shrimp fajita

We've never had a bad experience here. The service is great and friendly. The house margaritas are cheap, large, and delicious! And the chips and salsa are fresh and continuous!! read more

We were pretty disappointed with this place. The service was great, but the food was less than mediocre. We ordered the fajitas for 2. The shrimp was the only thing easily spotted. The chicken and steak were tiny little scraps hidden in a mound of peppers and onions. Definitely think we way overpaid for this dish. We ordered quesadillas and enchiladas for the kids. Not a single kid ate their food. This is extremely unheard of our family. Definitely will not go back. read more

I hate to pan newly opened restaurants. But I was there as a party of 1. Plus tip$30. I ordered fish tacos and a house margarita ($10.00). The salsa that arrived with the chips tasted like tomato sauce with some seasoning. As I work at the giant right there I do know they came in the other day to get supplies from us....not unheard of. However, I didn't even make it home (15min) before I became quite ill. Not something I want to pay $30 for. That said, my waitress was nice, polite and friendly. Thinking I won't be back. read more

The service was fine. However the steak I ordered (carne asada and steak fajita) was unseasoned and was just bland, as well as the vegetables. I couldn't discern any other seasoning other than pepper. Had to force myself to eat and for the price I paid for it, I was extremely disappointed. Will not be coming back. read more

OMG amazing food. Definitely a place to check out for great Mexican food. They are very pleasant and nice. They take care of you right away.

My husband and I went last weekend for their "soft opening". We too had been waiting a long time for it to open. It was warm so we sat outside. I had the frozen margarita that was very tasty and huge. It cost $10. We had the complimentary chips and salsa which were good. I had the avocado and shrimp salad and husband got the chicken chipotle bowl. My salad could have had more greens other than just a little iceberg lettuce but the shrimp were cooked perfectly and the avocado was yummy. My husband liked his dinner but said it wasn't great. The service was less than spectacular. It took a while to even get waited on. It was crowded and everyone new of course. Overall was tasty and pretty satisfying. Expect it will get even better. Great to finally have a Mexican restaurant in Urbana. read more

Well worth the wait! It took so long for this place to open but we are so glad it's open. The carne asada tacos are delicious. Margarita's are huge and yummy! Will be back often!! read more

This is a mid meal review. I am glad they are finally open. It is Saturday night and they are busy. The margaritas are large and average but there is a huge variety and it is too early to be completely objective. The beef Super Burrito is flavorful from the beef to the onions and peppers with complementary sides. Definitely a healthy serving. The sevice it good and timely without being obtrusive. If they listen to the initial feedback and work through the rush of being the new kid in the neighborhood as Rick said in Casablanca "Louis, I think this is the the beginning of a beautiful friendship'. read more

Love this restaurant!! Just picked up carry out and two margaritas togo. They are kind and the food is amazing. Did I mention the margaritas.... Delish! read more

The worst food and service our family has ever experienced! Not worth a visit. The restaurant is over priced and shouldn't be in business! Our order was wrong and when I called to let them know "Chris " immediately started to argue and then hung up. I was very surprised and when I called back I was pretty angry at the treatment and the fact that he argued and hung up...we had words( although he argued over anything I wanted to say not allowing me to talk) and he hung up again accusing me of cussing. The whole situation was pretty unbelievable!!! I do plan to report them to their corporate offices and write reviews on any and every site available to warn any potential customers. My only hope is that they close down! I agree with the other many complaints...fast food is better than this food. read more

It's a nice restaurant but it's way over priced. Chicken fajitas were eh, definitely better Mexican restaurants out there for the same price

The food is bottom level quality, not even close to authentic Mexican food, and everything was bland and over cooked. Nothing remotely special about this place. If something isn't done to improve the food soon, this place will not last I'm afraid. read more

We had a group of friends, 8 of us that meet for lunch monthly. We choose Cinco De Mayo this time and glad we did. The staff was very friendly and accommodating to our large needy group. The food was fresh and delicious! The portions were so generous that most of us took food home. Stop in and check them out. I am looking forward to going back again soon. read more

This place has the potential to be amazing. The issue is that they cheap out and use American cheese on everything. It ruins the taste of the food. Guacamole is amazing. Margaritas are great too. Anything with cheese, not good. read more

First visit yesterday evening. The enchaladas and diabla tacos were pretty good. The service was prompt and attentive. Its the first resturant in the Urbana development that is worth a second trip! read more

The best description of this place is Bland. The salsa was very uniform (run through a blender?) and very mild and tomato. I had the fijita texanna with steak, chicken, and shrimp. Again the meats had no flavor, could not taste any fijita seasoning. The tortillas were fresh and tasty. My wife got the chicken enchiladas and had the same experience. The chicken had no flavor. The only saving grace was the crema sauce which was good. I will state that this is during their soft opening and am hopeful things will improve. The service was excellent and we plan to give then a few more tries before we give up on this place. read more

My husband and I love Mexican food and almost without a doubt try Mexican food wherever we go on vacation. I have say that this was one of the best Mexican restaurants we have eaten at! I would highly recommend this restaurant... the food presentation, taste and the service was excellent! read more

Super sad. I've been excited for this plant to open. Food was not so good. So bland. Service was fine. Staff was friendly.

Small establishment with pleasant and accommodating staff. Food needs a little more care. Nachos come with shredded iceberg lettuce, cheese and "stewed" tasting shredded chicken etc. Wasn't appetizing to look at and the taste blend wasn't something you may crave. Tacos came underdressed with just the flour taco & meat. Requested cheese which isn't already an option along with sour cream. Received a side of blazing hot red sauce (beware...it's really outrageously hot and should be offered with a waiver, in my opinion). Rice tasted commercial...maybe like a box of Goya rice (which I enjoy...at home). Although staff is friendly, the establishment is so small, it's no where for them to stand-in-wait except in a tiny hall way leading to the restrooms..which is only one stall per Sex. I would like to see more plate presentation and quality taste. I believe this will promote and maintain foot travel. Side Note: The bar drink was delicious. Don't allow parents to leave kiddie items outside the door. It's unattractive and messy. read more

Nothing stands out to make it a 5-star, but it was a good meal. I was there for lunch, wish I'd ordered the dinner-sized entree! Good service. read more

I've been going back to this place since it opened hoping it would improve. The environment is new, chic, and upbeat, although SMALL. The daily happy hour drinks are great and worth it. That's where the great marks end. Tacos are served with just protein and tortilla. I've NEVER been served a taco this "naked." Enchilladas are very small in size and come with ONE bland side. The food is not authentic at all and needs some improvement. Over priced and not worth it. Sorry, but I really keep trying to love this place, but needs improvement! read more
