Cinco Mexican spots for Cinco de Mayo (Plus a Couple of Fiestas, too!)

Hey ATL, we’ve got you covered for all things Cinco de Mayo ITP and OTP. Roll into summer in Atlanta with these top restaurants and events!

Baja Tacos from Chiringa

Chiringa
We’re obsessed with this hot new Alpharetta spot serving up elevated beach food! The jalapeños add an extra spicy kick to their guac. Drink a round of “Ringa Ritas” made with agave, then play a tipsy game of cornhole on their outdoor patio that’ll make you feel like you’re right on the coast.

Don’t miss out on their steak and chicken-filled enchiladas mihocanas, an insane combo of deliciousness for the meat and cheese lover. Locations and Cinco celebrations in Cumming, Alpharetta, Woodstock, and Canton.

Superica
Superica serves up craveworthy Tex-Mex in a a sexy and trendy atmosphere. Try their Bohemia beer for an authentic taste of Mexico and pair it up with their Queso Fundido, broiled with Monterey Jack and Chihuahua cheeses. Locations in Buckhead and Krog Street Market.

Margaritas from Nuevo Laredo
Nuevo Laredo
This dive on the Westside first opened its doors in ‘92 and has been a staple for fun and affordable Mexican ever since. Celebrate your Cinco with their gooey, cheesy Chile Relleno and endless chips and salsa. Choose from a dozen Mexican beers or try their Skinny Margarita for the health-conscious Cinco celebrater.

esquites corn from Chido and Padre's
Chido & Padres
Don’t miss the craveworthy Mexican street corn salad, or esquites, at Chido & Padre’s filled with grilled corn, pepitas, cotija cheese and mojo aioli. Yum! Chido & Padres also boasts two patios and two bars, making this Buckhead spot double the fun for Cinco de Mayo.
