Customer Reviews
This place is absolutely amazing. I came in just to grab a quick bite to eat but everything looks so delicious. I don't know what they call it but I tried a cactus leaf and it was delicious. It has such a flavor that is similar to I guess an artichoke but also very different at the exact same time. I had two chicken tacos and one chorizo. I love the fact that they have a bar where you can add as much salsa and toppings as you want. So delicious. The place is so clean and spotless it's not even funny. Guys behind the counter are awesome and I already be back.
I’ve been on the hunt for authentic tacos, and I’m so happy to say I’ve finally found them right here in St. James. Tacos Cinco de Mayo serves the best tacos in the area hands down. The portions are generous, and the sauce bar is a great touch that lets you customize your plate just the way you like it. So far, I’ve tried the brisket tostadas and steak tacos both were packed with flavor and cooked to perfection. I’ve heard rave reviews about the al pastor and birria as well (though I don’t eat pork), and I wouldn’t be surprised if they’re just as amazing. The taqueria is cozy, with seating for around 8 tables, and their drinks are all made in-house. I really enjoyed the Jamaica and tamarindo, and they also offer horchata and passion fruit. It’s such a great addition to our town, authent
The yellow rice meat and shrimp are excellent.. Kai said that the Beria tacos were only okay. Very authentic Latino food for sure.
Absolutely amazing food. Got 3 tacos and they were filled to the top with meat. Very authentic. Very clean and great customer service. Surpasses expectations all around. Ill definitely be back
This is the best tacos I have ever had. This was my x times coming here. I always get the Lengua aka beef tongue and Tripa aka beef tripe. I personally think the beef tongue tacos is the best. The meat they gave you is filling the whole tortilla which is so satisfying. The main point is they are not expensive at all compared to the restaurant outside, and the other restaurants won’t give you as much to fill the tortilla. It definitely worths to drive even an hour to try it. I highly recommended this tacos restaurant. One thing is that the environment there is not as good as a fine dining restaurant. It is more like a fast food place.
