5 De Mayo

"It was empty when we got there (early for dinner), so out takeout order was ready very quickly. I was very happy with the spiciness of my shrimp dish, and especially so with the chipotle pepper aroma and taste. It’s one of my pet peeves when a “very spicy” dish arrives mild, but this one was great. The rice was a little blah but the beans were good and made up for it. I also liked the guacamole. My partner got a burrito and liked it. We’ll be back!"

"I recommend the chicken and beef soft tacos here with guacamole. They serve the tacos wrapped in two layers of pita here, so expect to get full really fast! The guacamole was unfortunately not as spicy as I thought it would be, and the salsa provided also didn’t have much of a kick to it. Our server was really helpful, helping us decide on which tacos to order and giving us a free bowl of pita chips to munch on while waiting for our tacos. There’s also a very strong AC unit in this small resto, so this is definitely somewhere you can escape from the heat on a scorching hot day!"

"The folks at 5 De Mayo were very friendly, and the food was some of the best Mexican food I've had. It's located a bit off the beaten path, but it's definitely worth the effort. Our server was attentive, and double-checked if we really wanted the picante/hot version of the salsa (it was indeed VERY hot.) The chips were obviously made in store, and were crispy and tasty. We ordered the Carne Asada tacos, and the Carnitas plate. Our food came out within ten minutes. The meat on both dishes had a crisp sear, yet remained very tender inside. The side order of beans was seasoned well, and the rice was perfect. I would come back here any time!"

"Found this place while visiting the Hall of science. Very friendly and customer service was amazing. Food is delicious and was prepared fast and presentable. Chips and guac portion was small but everything taste delicious. If your looking for Mexican food around this area, this is the place!!"

"I came here with a group of people and the hostess (who might have been the owner?) was super friendly! A bunch of us got tacos and it was so delicious. It was authentic, well-built, and tasty in every bit. We also got horchatas. Highly recommend if you are looking for great Mexican food near the area!"
