This place has a HUGE menu and they are always open. However, it is not yummy. Everything I get there is always too salty and not a lot of flavor. But it's cheap and they're open all the time. So there's that.
Damn...the burritos are good too. The trick is to order what you want...off the menu...because it's crazy, disorganized and plastered all over the walls.

Overshadowed by the ever-so-popular(but suck ass) Tito's, I always wondered how this place could… Read more »
any mexican joint that's open 24hrs and is within 5mi of my apt gets an automatic 4stars in my book. add to that the fact that this place has anything you could possibly want to eat at 2am (mexican, burgers, fried junk), a pastrami place next door that's also open, ample parking ....
wow, i think i'm in love!
i had one carne asada taco for $1.95 and it's HUGE! if you get the 4taco special, it's cheaper ($5 for four), but they're tiny. so pick your poison. only thing is... they don't have a condiment bar... boo... but the ladies behind the counter were really nice when i asked them for extra limes, salt, etc....
The fried chicken here is horrible. I know, I know, why am I ordering fried chicken at a place called Cinco De Mayo Tacos? I just wanted it, okay? I got a hamburger too. So?
The hamburgers taste like something from a hospital cafeteria, and I like that. The fried chicken is overly battered in a bad fish-and-chips style, all sloppy and barely crispy. The chicken plate comes with fries and a salad, complete with a creamy, drop-your-fork-in-disgust-tasting dressing.
The chicken-rice burrito is plump and flavorful, in a taco truck sort of way. Must be the lard. And the squeezed-on-the-spot orange juice is refreshing, but expensive (three dollars and up, depending on size).
Still, better than Tito's Tacos, by maybe half a star. Maybe.
The most bizarre thing about this place is the packaging. My burger came covered in a Steak 'n' Shake wrapper (an entirely different eatery, trust me) and my chicken plate was handed to me in a plastic bag labeled Ravanelli's Pizza. Is Cinco De Mayo dumpster diving?

Very simply:
Death by lard = Cinco de Mayo
I had read some of the positive reviews of this place on Yelp so had been eager to give it a try. After spending all morning at the free phone store (i.e. Sprint repair center in Culver City), I decided today was the day.
I walked inside and the first thing you notice is that there are about 3 different menus, with 30 items on each. Mexican, breakfast, and American. I guess they figured that since they were next to Tito's, a famous Mexican joint, and Johnny's, a famous pastrami/American joint, that they could compete by just offering both...and then...add breakfast!
Perfect right? Hardly.
I wanted to order the beef enchilada plate...until I found out the enchiladas use ground beef. Blasphemy. She said they had pork. I said ok. "But those are chile verde only!" Ok, whatever, just give me some food, lady.
The box of food that came out must have weighed 10 lbs. I ate 1 enchilada and half of my rice and beans and was more than stuffed, so they're good on the quantity. Quality was just average and everything felt really greasy. The tortilla chips tasted like they had been fried in oil that had been used for french fries, eggs, rats, dogs, and maybe even Tito and Johnny themselves in a murderous fit of rage. Ok well maybe not, but the chips really didn't taste right.
I would eat here again if I had to, but I guess I was hoping for something a little more special and this place definitely wasn't that.

I work near here now so I am giving all of the local eateries a fair shake. Cinco just is not cutting it. I may not give them a second chance.
Since LA Mexican joints do not believe in a preferred black bean option, I have to judge a place by its refried. The refried beans at Cinco are about as baby as it gets - runny, mushy, wet. That slightly burnt taste. Not good.
And they try to be everything to everyone. How can you trust a joint to do anything well when it does everything? Breakfast, burgers, mexican, ice cream! If they did not have the 24 hour thing going for them, they could not compete with Tito's next door!

not feeling Johnnies, not feeling the line at Tito's, need something now, don't care if the food sucks, stare at the menu cause there's too many items to pick from, oh, crap they have more specials on the wall, am i feeling mexican or am i feeling mexican style american food, forget it, i'll just order something, get my order, see something better on the wall, should of ordered that, finish eating, oh my stomach hurts, i should of went to johnnie's or tito's, forget it, this place is sufficient, i just need food.
I often go to this place on the way to or from LAX and I always go for the tacos. At such an fast food establishment as this you gotta go for the simpler foods. The tacos with lengua, cabeza, carnitas, and chicharron are sure bets. Their carne asada is soupy and diluted, (boo).
I never got a chance to get their menudo and so I will have to wait for the next time I go around LAX.
The food here tastes authentic. But I like my Mexican food more Americanized tasting.
I've only eaten here a few times in the wee hours of the morning.
Service is good - all things considering.
I have yet to try Tito's but I've heard so much NWOM (negative word of mouth) about how overrated the food is - I don't bother - especially with those lines. And I always give the underdog the business anyways (Nak Won to Hodori - Cali Fresh to CCC, etc)

I was craving Mexican, it was 5/5, so I figured why not hit up our friendly neighborhood Cinco De Mayo. The tacos are $2 or less, come with chips and salsa and the place is open 24 hours! AND it has easy parking right behind it. Nice.
For some reason it's hard to tell if you're going to get a hard taco or a soft taco, so I'd ask. They have a bunch of different meats:
asada-beef
carnitas-shredded pork
lengua - tongue
al pastor - specially marinated pork
cabeza - beef head?
They also serve breakfast all day and random things like burgers. Seriously the place has like 80+ menu items, but I always end up getting the tacos.
The decor is hm... a bit sticky. Still, with an A-grade, probably a safer bet than your neighborhood taco truck.
Dacooooos!

We discovered Cinco de Mayo, as I suspect many do, as a result of an aborted visit to Tito's Taco's which is located immediately next door.
The menu can be a bit overwhelming for the first time guest but it's only because it's so darn big. As if that weren't enough, the specials are posted near the order window.
The food is simple and straight forward. It's a grill-to-order window place and doesn't pretend to be otherwise. The portions are generous and the staff friendly. Also, Cinco de Mayo is open 24 hours which makes it a great late night option.
The lengua tacos and carnitas burrito special with red sauce are favorites. If you visit, be sure to take a peek at the specials posted near the order window. If nothing on the menu grabs you, Johnnie's Pastrami and Tito's Tacos are a 30-second walk away.
This place isnt to bad. I really only go here when I have a craving for Lengua tacos or burritos. They are good. They always hit the spot.
Thank god for places like these, right? After a long night of house parties and bars we were starving! Culver City used to be my old stomping grounds so naturally, we came to Cinco de Mayo and, man, it was the spot at 2 in the morning! Like, packed! We ordered our food and got a table and scarfed down our enchiladas and tamales. Pretty f-ing tasty, as a matter of fact! We got the combo plates which came with beans, rice, chips and a salad! All for like $6. Total deal.
For greasy, wonderful, fattening bad for you mexican food this place is awesome. It is open 24 hours a day for starters, so if you ever need some mexican food where you will get plenty of food for you money then go here. You walk in and see a huge menu with items numbered 1-100 so take your pick! but i would avoid the random american dishes on there like hamburgers ha. Go for the quesadillas or enchiladas or tacos here. you'll love it even if you feel ridiculously full afterwards ha IT IS PRETTY DELICIOUS

FO SHIZZLE. i love this place. the enchiladas are amazing. there's an outside walk up window, so i can take my dog when i order. It's open like 24 hours... great hangover/ drunk food. great SOBER food... when i was training for my marathon, this was my celebratory meal after my long run Saturdays. Just so you know how bad this food is for you, i justify eating it only when i run upward of 10 miles in a day. However, it's amazing.

It's always a holiday at Cinco De Mayo! Well, perhaps not, but the food is something to celebrate.
Food: Artery-clogging, grease injected, and stroke-inducing are phrases that come to mind when I think about their 100+ item menu. But as I always say, food usually doesn't taste good unless it's at least somewhat unhealthy or scientifically beefed up. So is the case here; the refried beans and tamales (http://www.yelp.com/bi...) will pamper your tongue like a spoiled chihuahua. I'm new to pupusas, but the pork one I got (http://www.yelp.com/bi...) was pretty good. Number 71, the carnitas (http://www.yelp.com/bi...) and the fresh squeezed OJ are personal favorites of friends who frequently visit CdM. The best part of it all is the condiments bar filled with peppers, salsas, pickles, and the biggest carrot slices ever.
Service: As with most fast food joints, you order at the window in the store and pick it up when it's ready.
Atmosphere: It's not terribly pleasant inside this small eatery, but at least it's fairly clean. I guess the best way to describe it is an older LA building.
Parking: They have their own spacious lot surrounding the restaurant. It's so big for such a small place that I'm sure illicit activity was behind it all.
Synopsis: Good Mexican food, not a super great place to eat in. I say, get the food and get out.

Open 24 hours, this joint serves mexican dishes along with pancakes, eggs, ham, etc. I had pancakes, eggs and ham, it was okay. Wanted more syrup than was in the package thingy, but I didn't want to go up to the counter again. Also, the peeps that were in line after me, got their combo plates before a couple of us got our breakfast food.
I recommend going with their combo plates cause they look great and are huge. The carnitas, especially looked good, I should have ordered what they're known for. They have a cart with help yourself fixings like the carrot slices, peppers, etc. I ate some while waiting around for my food, it was just alright. Tacos are only .85 cents. I'll have to get back over there again before giving it more than three stars. Parking lot around the back.

Oh Cinco De Mayo hallowed be thy name!!!!
I am seriously going to miss this place when I move away!
Open 24 hours a day!
There's like 80 things on the menu and I feel the fool for always getting my beef tacos. They are served up fresh and greasy as hell! The little veggie cooler thing in there never gets off without a molestation from me. Those pickled peppers and radishes and serranos are coming home with me!
It may get a little rowdy around last call but if you are there also, you are probably inebriated and will wake up the next morning blessed with Cinco's revenge.
The lesbian-lady there is very nice and so are lip-liner and roly-poly. Lip-liner forgot to give me chips last time and I almost had a nervous breakdown when I got home b/c the CHIPS AND SALSA HERE ARE AMAZING and I am a salsa afficiando.
Fuck a tito's tacos!!!! Viva Cinco De Mayo!!!
Question #1: Do you know a sure fire spot to get those "devil dogs" aka hot dogs sold from a converted shopping cart at or near bars/clubs?
Question #2: Do you have any idea how good bacon tastes at 3:00 a.m. when you're buzzed from going out?
If you don't know the answer to #1 (like I did on a recent weekend night), but like #2, then I suggest heading to Cinco De Mayo. They have almost everything you need if you're buzzing and hungry (don't the two go together?) and find yourself in the Culver City/Westside area. Greasy fries, big as your head burritos and of course, my recent fav - a crispy bacon sandwich.
If you can help me with #1 I'd buy the first round.

Someone mentioned let's hit up Cinco De Mayo, and I went "Nooo. No more booze." Maybe it's just me, whenever I hear Cinco De Mayo, it's more parties, more booze and everything more.
So glad, it's a food joint, not another local bar or liquor store. Oh man, they sure have lots of varieties on their menu. I can't even focus on what I want. Pancakes? Waffles? Tacos? Omelets? Tacquitos? Burritos..and yes they had what I finally could settle for, Burrito filled eggs and harshbrown at a price of only 3.25.
And no, I don't remember much after that. I sure did remember the journey home from there was a job. Oh yeah, it's open 24 hours, eat your heart out..

First I need to state that I rarely go to this place sober.....but I have on occasion made an appearance here when I was dry. The food varies from God awful to delicious. They have about 3,000 items on the menu so it's up to you to find out what's good. I always enjoy the Mexican egg omelets and pancakes. The burgers are a little iffy, so it's best to stick to the Mexican or breakfast food. The fresh carrot juice is also a pleasant treat.
Cinco De Mayo is good for what it is trying to be. A cheap fast food stand with a big variety. 4 stars from me.
Good Times
Most romantic Valentine's day I've ever had....
Well, not exactly. When my honey finally made it over to my place after a long work day, we didn't have a ton of options. The clock ticked to 10:13 and I was paralyzed by my inability to go somewhere without Yelping it first, and it was Thursday so places close early.
We called probably five places that were (oddly) still answering the phone, but only to let us know they had closed, before deciding on apparently the only late-night, non-taco truck place around.
The menu is fascinating, featuring a Cocktail combo: some sort of shrimp cocktail/make your own ceviche but served with a ton of packets of saltines!??! Also, they have pastrami listed probably three or four times, which I suppose gives them some sort of competitiveness with Johnny's Pastrami right next door, but to me just seemed off putting. Why would someone go to Cinco De Mayo for pastrami with the purported best pastrami in LA five paces south?
The food was okay - not great. Service was quick. Plus it's 24 hours, so as much as I hate to say it, I'll probably be back.

Are you SERIO, HOMES?
This place is a godsend for a starving lush like myself. Food ranges from burritos, enchiladas, nachos, burgers, pupusas, breakfast, a dead carcass of a fish on your plate.. whatever your little heart's desire.
The food's dirt cheap, the burritos are amazing but the enchiladas are so-so. It's a proven, scientific fact that mexican food is a boracho's late night remedy for preventing a hangover.. maybe causing a little gas in the morning, but at least it'll soak up the booze.
It's pretty poppin in there after 2am.. only thing that sucks about this place is NO DRIVE THROUGH... boooo. It's ok, Cinco De Mayo.. i still love you.

this place is very much your generic fast mexican food with your run of the mill mexican dishes (tacos, burritos, carne asada plates, echiladas, and tortas to name a few). they also have mexican style breakfasts (chorizo? anyone?).

This is a great alternative if the line over at Tito's is ridiculously long, if you're hungry at 3 in the morning or if Mrs. Garcia's is closed. Cinco De Mayo is a Culver City local dive that serves up their Mexican food 24 / 7. Also a great alternative to late night diners such as IHOP or Denny's after a long night of drinking. They have a great selection comparing to some of the local Mexican joints. I like their Chicharron tacos as well as their Milanesa torta. Greasy, hearty and filling.

The prices are decent, but not great. I threw down about $20 for two people which is something I've never done for Mexican food but what can I say, my fiance is a man with an appetite. That being said, I got at least a pound of chili cheese fries for my money's worth but the burritos were small (but packed tightly with cheesy goodness). I prefer Mrs. Garcia's but this place may be my destination for middle-of-the-night food cravings.

They actually have a pretty extensive menu but I would never venture away from a taco, burrito, or nachos.

I love this place. While Tito's has a long line (totally overrated I add) this place next door gets treated like the red-headed stepchild (no offense to those red-headed stepchildren).
They have a ton of specials and its open 24 hours so its a good place to pick up or even eat at after a long night of drinking.
They even accept credit cards a huge plus for a hole in the wall type place.
It's 2am.
That JAL flight you got on super amazing special landed at LAX three hours late and the morons in Customs held onto you for 45 minutes trying to remember how to scan a green card.
Your plans to go to In-N-Out and kiss the ground have been denied, citizen. It's 2am. You're at LAX. Visions of "Dennys, Jack in the Box, or that AWFUL 24 hour Carrows?!" dance in your poor head. You're doomed. And that drive to San Diego really sucks with an empty stomach.
Go to Cinco.
2 enchiladas, a taco (or chile relleno to mix it up), horchata, 7 bucks with tip.
Since you're wondering:
Inside dining 24/7.
The food's very good.
The horchata is nectar of the Gods.
The portions are monstrous.
The bathrooms are clean.
And, well, after 16 hours on a plane, it all seems perfect.
(An honorable mention that I came here wasted out of my gourd once and dropped a whole red wet burrito into my gullet AND a chile relleno and I had no hangover the next day. The designated driver said that we looked like a "bunch of mexican-food-loving hyenas.")

Cinco De Mayo emobides what I consider to be a Classic LA Tacostand. They have, seemingly everything under the Mexican sun, (including pupusas -- from under the El Salvadorian sun) and it's layed out in a certain classic style. You have your choice of many wonderful items, and you can eat in the tortilla-smelling "shack," or outside on a picnic table, watching cars go by.
The fact that the line's at Tito's (next door) are absurd makes this spot a bit more desireable.

This place is the love of my food life. Open 24 HOURS a day! You can get cheeseburgers, nachos, burritos, tamales, enchiladas, ice cream, huevos rancheros, just about any damn thing you want and it's all cheap, tasty and served in huge portions! I always get the bean and cheese burrito with guacamole and a medium drink, the burrito is huge and I LOVE the salsa that comes with the chips on the side. The combination plates rule too and come with a little side salad and drink, also the breakfast burritos are sooooooooooo good. What more could you ask for than huge portions of good Mexican food served any time you crave it!

Delicious food and a horchata shake that just rocks my socks. The menu is pretty huge, but you aren't limited to it; you can pretty much order anything. For example, I had the chile relleno burrito, without the sour cream, with guacamole, black beans instead of refried beans, extra salsa, and a dousing of enchilada sauce. (However, they forgot the guacamole, so minus one star for the butch lesbian who prepared my order.) You might not wanna get extra cheese though, because it's likely that whatever you order already comes burried under a big cheese mountain.
The servings are jumbo sized, everything is dirt cheap, and it's open 24 hours. Also, by some miracle, this bright yellow shithole managed to pull off an A health grade. Good job.

Jesus Cristo! If I were to manifest myself into cheap mexican food form I would be MARRIED to their carne asada nachos. Why? They are 5 dollars so they don't ask a lot of you and they are hearty as ALL hell - so they make you feel real good.
I usually get the nachos there but they have over 20 items on the menu and regular american diner food too. I love the women that work there, they are kind and very giving with the food they serve up (as in they give you a lot). I am also a big fan of their fresh squeezed juices. When I happen to stumble in on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon after a bit too much loss of sleep I order a jugo de naranja con zanahoria (orange-carrot juice). Yum!

Update: I've decided to withdraw one star. I still go here, but the tacos are not five-star worthy. We also had an incident where we ordered a side of guac and got their avocado cream instead which is just watery avo goo. Don't know if it was an accident or if they decided it was close enough, but I was not amused.
This place is a grungy little hole in the wall that maybe caters to pimps, hos, and yelpers. On my big taco kick, we head here last night (take notice that it's on washington PLACE not blvd so you don't drive too far then call free411) for some sampling.
The sign on the door is hard to pass up: Dinner Special: $7.50- salad, enchilada, chile relleno, and taco with rice and beans. That's aprox 50 letters of food- only fifteen cents per letter! That would be like getting a steak for 75 cents**.
But since my recent passion for carne asada soft tacos came about, I'm not sold on the great deal. The butch mexican explains it's a ground beef in a hard shell. Hmmmmm, but then I ask if I can switch it to a carne asada soft taco and she says yes.
While we wait we devour a large guac w/ chips. It's really good- fresh, chunky, with bits of this and that mixed it.
The carne asada taco is pretty good. The meat is diced up smaller than most C.A.T.s and there are more seasonings mixed in there (and i think a thin red sauce) than I'm used to, but it's enjoyable. Scrumptious with our guac.
The "salad" was shredded lettuce w/ a slice of tomato and some 1000 island. I didn't bother with it.
The enchilada (your choice of chicken, cheese, or beef) and relleno (vegetarian) were cheeeeesy! There was a really good red sauce on the ench. You could taste the corn of the tortillas. Rice and refried brown beans were just as yummy. But after a few bites, we were full!
So we boxed it up and it's gonna be our dinner tonight with a salad and fresh made guac and chips. The incredible deal just got even better: 2 meals.
Next time I might just get the 4 taco special- it was about 5 bucks and comes with a soda!!!!
This place is SERIOUSLY cheap and HELLA tasty. I'd wanna take it to go though, it's a grimy place. I am offically in love with mexican take out in los angeles. If it weren't, you know, fattening and unhealthy, i could eat it every night.

a mile from my house, i stopped here on the way to somewhere. after a quick scan of the menu i see what i need, torta. dead center on the menu above the counter, tortas. the clouds then broke and light from heaven shined down under torta to the word milanesa. mmmmm milanesa. breaded pounded, fried beef. sounds good to me. so i order a milanesa torta and a carnitas taco. few minutes later i get my food and go.
my destination was just minutes away so my food was still hot. i decide to do the taco first and when i picked it up i could see what it was $2. it was huge! or at least it was stuffed full of pork onions and some herby things. soo good! not great but darn good. lots of flavor and nice and tender. i was praying my torta would be as good. i made quick work of the taco and moved on the door number 2. i unwrap my 10th torta and dig in. first impression is that it's good, nice bread, lots of beans, super tender milanesa, mayo and onions. but about half way through i start not digging it as much. the milanesa is really greasy and too tender to be natural. the amount of beans was overwhelming and the mayo was getting to me. but i ate it all anyways, it was good but i wont eat that again.
not a good torta but i liked their carnitas. i'll be back to explore the menu further.

I have never actually been to Cinco De Mayo, so I cannot comment on the establishment itself. I have heard many good things about Cinco from the lovely Kate E., particularly their bean and cheese burritos. I couldn't really wrap my head around the idea of why their burritos were so good. I mean, it's a bean and cheese burrito, don't they all pretty much taste the same?
WRONG. Kate E. was kind enough to pick up dinner a la Cinco one night on her way to my apartment and I was able to decide for myself if her raves were really true. And they were. They so, so were. The burrito is massive and on first sight I thought there was no way I would be able to finish it. But I did. I almost wanted more. Skip Titos (which I've never been the biggest fan of anyway) and hit up Cinco.
YUM!
