Cinco de Mayo is a solid spot, earning 4 stars for their effort and professionalism, especially on a hectic New Year's Eve. We ordered the carne asada platter and an elote. The corn was fantastic--sweet, charred, and flavorful. The carne asada, unfortunately, was a bit overcooked and dry, lacking the bold spices we were hoping for. And they always give you complimentary chips and salsa. Salsa was good but a bit watery, and the chips were stale, but hey! They're free.The staff, however, were absolute stars. Despite being severely understaffed and packed with people squatting for the New Year's fireworks, they remained polite, professional, and worked tirelessly to keep things moving. Big kudos to the servers for their hustle--they did an amazing job given the circumstances.The restaurant's cleanliness was lacking, with sticky floors and gunk left on the tables. It seemed like the staff were overwhelmed, resorting to wiping tables with napkins from the dispenser. While it wasn't ideal, it's understandable given how busy the night was.Overall, Cinco de Mayo has its strengths, particularly in their staff and elote. With a little more attention to seasoning and cleanliness, it could easily hit 5 stars. Don't forget to tip your wait staff!

White people taco night! It's a place that's open late in downtown Jax, which is rare. And if you navigate it as Tex-Mex it's really fine. My chicken enchiladas had chicken that was actually seasoned and cooked perfectly, perfectly decent flour tortillas, and adequate but unspecial sauce. My Texan dining companions said the queso or "cheese dip" was quite good. The chips and salsa were average to bad.It was also the best bang for my buck the whole trip, I paid under $20 for a meal that made me too full to finish it. If you're in the area it may well be your best option.

Came here for a quick bite because we were in the area for an event, but didn't have dinner yet because we were still on California time. I'm an octogenarian in spirit and don't like eating dinner past 5, so this was a good option because it was 10pm and they don't close until 11pm. We ordered a California burrito and the server was kind enough to split it for us into 2 plates. It was good and filling. Recommend if you're in the area and want a place that's open late with friendly service.

On a sweltering summer day, we ducked into Cinco De Mayo for an early dinner. First thing we noticed was the absolutely wonderful air conditioning! The only thing better than the air conditioning was the food. We got the fish tacos (grouper and mahi-mahi, flaky, tender and flavorful with crisp, fresh fillings (and lots of jalapeños) and a huge plate of chile rellenos with shredded chicken and a heaping mound of delicious rice and beans. Smooth and satisfying, so good! We also got a side of grilled veggies to make ourselves feel better, and they were delicious! Cinco de Mayo serves up delicious, authentic Mexican fare in a cool environment out of the heat of a Jacksonville summer. Definitely give it a try!

Their rice is very tasty. I felt the beef could be cooked a little more with butter. Their lunch specials and prices are reasonable.

Service was excellent but the food was extremely bland. Ordered the taco salad and it was primarily ground beef with no flavor.

Great place for lunch! There's plenty of parking on the street and a quick walk from local conventions. Lunch specials were large portions and all around $10-15. Location has extremely quick service despite our large group and was very clean!
