Great service and food - we will be returning here whenever we want some good Mexican food in the area. It’s definitely our new go-to place. The staff was so friendly; they went above and beyond in their service. The food tasted fresh and, unlike many other Mexican spots we’ve tried, did not make us feel like we had a rock in our stomach after we ate (if you know what I mean.) I could taste the fresh cilantro in our salsa and the fresh lime used in our dishes. My guess is that they don’t use the heavy oils that some other places use. If we eat something with cheap palm oil in it we immediately get a stomach ache - and we did not experience that here. The food was lighter and fresher than we’ve experienced at other places. They had extensive vegetarian options. Also, the portions are big and an excellent value!Vegetarian options: A full section of the menu dedicated to vegetarian dishes.Kid-friendliness: Kids menu, kids menu activities

Heard great things, decided to try it out on a date last night. We were refused to be served because we were “drunk.” Both of us were entirely sober, got kind of pissed off and left. We still can’t figure out why he thought we were drunk, but i have a hunch it had to do with my many leg surgeries and walking disability - something that’s identified on my drivers license that I gave him when I ordered the drink he wouldn’t serve. Won’t be back.

The food here is excellent. My compliments to the chef. I had a carne asada and grilled chicken plate that came with a tortilla on the side in case I wanted to make a burrito for myself. Though I initially intended to, I did not use the tortilla because I did not want to stop eating.

Service from Logan was great! Very pleasant, had good timing. Place is a little cramped, but they make due! Parking is difficult. Food has good flavor but could be hotter.Parking: The location is great ,right downtown, but if you can't find parking in front, you need to find it on side streets which are very dark. Street lights need improvements for safety.

Normally, I take photos, but I was starving and ate my meal before even thinking about taking a photo. The only pics I got were of dessert and seating area.Along the strip, which has limited parking.When we went in the afternoon it was not busy and we got seated right away. Nice atmosphere. Their seats are made of barrels, I believe.Chips are fresh and salsa mildly spicy. They serve Pepsi products. We ordered fajita nachos. It's enough for two people to share. Trust me, and add refried beans to it. Seasoned well and cooked perfectly. My favorite thing was the refried beans; they taste authentic. The fried ice cream is great, but to take it over the top, I recommend adding more chocolate sauce and caramel drizzle and also coating the taco shell in sugar and cinnamon.I would eat here again.

Got a burrito loco, an el tapatio, and queso for take out. Food was ready within minutes. Parking is a challenge in downtown Dover at night, but besides that the pickup process was easy enough.Food was awesome. The burrito was a decent size and incredibly flavorful. My wife loved her el tapatio. The queso was delicious, too. I’d definitely come back here again.

Fajitas Monterey is amazing simply huge for $20.99 easily enough to be shared or lots of left overs. Shrimp, chicken, steak and chorizo and a huge pile of onions and peppers. Totally worth every penny.

Cincos is my favorite place to go for margaritas and food!! The chipotle burrito bowl is my favorite thing on the menu. The owners and staff are very warm and hospitable, all around good vibe and good people!

Stopped in for dinner when it was super icy out and they seemed pretty short staffed, but everyone who was working was busting their butts and the service and food were fantastic! It’s hard to come by restaurants where the staff are in a good mood even at the end of a long day. I’ve yet to have anything but a great experience here ??

I still go there, and things have not changed much. A solid go-to for Mexican food in Dover. I like the burritos and chimis and the combo plates have great choices.
