Cinco Mexican Cantina Suwanee

I can't help but rave about this restaurant once again. It's among my top two favorite spots, and it takes the lead whenever I'm craving Mexican food. My friend ordered the Tacos al Carbon, which is something I typically get as well. This time, I indulged and went for the lunch fajitas, and oh my goodness, they were delicious! The steak was cooked perfectly to my preference, and there was an abundance of sautéed onions, peppers, and tomatoes. The portion size was quite generous for lunch. Our server, Jose, was fantastic. He's a new face for us, though he may not be new to the restaurant. He did an excellent job and has the potential to be a star.

The service was excellent. My breaded fish taco was slightly over-breaded, but it was still very tasty.

This was my first visit to Cinco, and I took my mom and boyfriend along. I had made reservations, but it turned out to be unnecessary since we were the only ones dining there. We really enjoyed the salsa that accompanied the nachos; it was far more flavorful than any salsa I've had before. The food was good overall, but the portion sizes were quite small. The only dish we were all disappointed with was the black beans, as they were quite bland and a bit tough. Aside from the beans, everything else we tried was very delicious.

Wonderful meal. My friend and I got our usual lunches, the Tacos al Carbon w/steak. They were perfect as always. We also had the guacamole, which has always been good, but seems to be even better the last two times. I don't know if it's the ingredients are fresher or a different preparer. We also had regular frozen margaritas w/salt. I've never had a bad marg here. Our server Edgar was fantastic also. He kept our water glasses filled and checked on us just the right amount. We'll be back...we always are. :

Great food, great spot, great atmosphere. The service was terrific.
