Located in the heart of Olivehurst, California, Taqueria Cinco De Mayo offers an authentic and vibrant Mexican dining experience that truly satisfies the senses. This beloved local gem excels at serving traditional Mexican favorites alongside creative takes like the irresistibly savory California Burrito and their signature Al Pastor that boasts a perfect harmony of smoky, slightly sweet marinated pork. Whether you’re craving the hearty, sauce-laden Super Wet Special Burrito or the crunchy delight of their Quesobirria Tacos, the menu pulses with bold flavors and fresh ingredients that invite you to savor every bite.
One of the standout features at Taqueria Cinco De Mayo is the sheer variety and generosity of portions. From the crispy and delicious Taquitos Maiz topped with tangy sour cream and crumbly Mexican Cotija cheese to the loaded Fiesta Fries – crispy fries smothered in beans, cheese, and your choice of meat – each dish is crafted to both comfort and excite. Their large taco combos, like the 5 Taco Combo or the x2 Enchiladas, cater perfectly to those looking for a satisfying, flavorful meal that won’t leave you wanting. Not to be overlooked, the Mexican-style burgers, such as the *CINCO Burger*, come loaded with bacon, grilled jalapenos, and creamy avocado, delivering a fusion twist that delights burger lovers craving something unique.
Dining here feels warm and inviting. While the indoor space is intimate, it’s kept clean and welcoming, and on pleasant days, their outdoor seating lets you enjoy the fresh air with your meal. Customers often highlight the friendly and attentive service, noting the staff’s patience and genuine warmth that enhance the overall experience. For fans of fresh beverages, the in-house made horchata is a memorable treat—creamy, sweet, and perfectly spiced, it pairs beautifully with the spiced dishes.
Some customers mention that the dining room can occasionally feel smoky and advise taking advantage of the outdoor seating on hotter days. While the corn tortillas here tend to have a firmer texture than some other Mexican spots, many patrons find this adds a rustic authenticity that complements the bold, vibrant flavors of the fillings.
Taqueria Cinco De Mayo is an affordable treasure trove of robust Mexican flavors delivered with speed and a smile. Whether you’re stopping by for a quick lunch, picking up a family feast to-go, or settling in for a casual dinner, this spot consistently delivers a satisfying, flavorful experience. It’s a must-visit for anyone in the area craving real Mexican food with generous portions and heartwarming service.
Great spot food is good compared to others in the area. My tacos weren't greasy. Fast service usually. I need to try the menudo next time around. Tortillas for tacos seemed a little on the hard side. For mexican food and even burgers highly recommend
The food is affordable and delicious. The waitress was very friendly and cracking no jokes. However the restaurant inside is very smokey and dining outside can get very hot, especially in the summer months. The portions sizes are huge which I appreciate, I’d recommend taking half of your meal home to savour later.
Came here for lunch on 3/13/2023. I called in my order. The young lady who helped me was great. Great customer service and staff is very friendly. My order was correct and Nothing wrong with it. I ordered the chicken enchilada platter. Everything had flavor, especially with their sauce- I asked for extra. The portions are decent size. The price is also decent for their dishes . I spent almost $17 for both dishes.
Great food, good prices. Service is always fast and friendly they haven't made a single mistake on any of my orders, been there about 10-15 times now. Food quality is consistent. The restaurant is clean and well kept inside and out. Only down side is that it's tiny. Highly recommend for To-go or they do have a couple tables outside, if you go on a nice day it's nice to eat out there.
The ladies that took my order were so nice and patient with me! The horchata drink was the best one I’ve ever had! You can tell they make it fresh and in-house. The food was also fresh and scrumptious !
The owners here are really nice always looking out for others and stray animals sometimes. All the young ladies upfront are really nice and great at their jobs but one named Jackie sticks out she is the best if you have any issues talk to her she will take care of you quick. And i swear im not saying this just so she will give me a good review on doordash...hehehe. truthfully all the Ladies upfront are great!
Why is it, when I say 3 Verde sauces, that doesn't happen all the time? They gave me two red sauces and one verde Sauce one time. Said three verde sauces this time, only got two. I come here all the time, quit messing up my sauces. (Por favor)
