New to the area and I saw this restaurant about a year ago when I went to set up internet for the new spot. I had never thought about trying it since there were so many taquerias in the area already and this one looked a little "gentrified" to me. I do prefer the hole-in-the-wall spots. HOWEVER...... fast forward about a year later and it was the weekend and we were looking to try something to eat. There is a huge dia de los muertios/calavera mural on the wall saying "Tacos Before Vatos" with a neon sign, which I agree with. Chipotle-style ordering, you tell them exactly what you want in your order. I got a burrito, my partner got a dutch crunch torta (this is actually why I wanted to stop by, I had never seen a torta with dutch crunch), and our son a bean and cheese burrito. Everything was bomb. The burrito was so big it served as as a second meal for me. We added chips and salsa and the one critique I have is that they could give some more chips -- seemed like barely a handful. BUT as al pastor fans, it was sooooo delicious and juicy.......... our son also enjoyed the burrito and he's a picky eater. My partner inhaled the torta completely. Thank you and we will definitely be back!

We went to Bevmo next door on a friday night to get some booze and we saw this. I said to my husband let's try it and so we did. We just shared the El pastor burrito bit I forgot to take a pic. Anyways, it was really good but dor $13 it's pretty small compared to the other taquerias we always goto nearby around our area. I like supporting small businesses so It's okay. I asked for 2 extra sauces and we didn't get charged. The young man who was serving us was good and nice. It is just a small place but clean and has some cute decor. I recommend this place and maybe we'll go back to try their tacos too.

Yummy agua fresca de piña, and taco bowl de pastor. Great flavor and good experience. Close to Bayfair mall

Cinco Taco Bar is like a local version of Chipotle, only better! The selection here went beyond tacos, burritos, and bowls and included other Mexican fare and snacks. Even their tacos were a step up, as they were made with freshly-griddled corn tortillas, served along with a huge selection of proteins and toppings. I tried the Carne Asada, Carnitas, and Salpicon (braised beef brisket), along with toppings of onion, cilantro, pico de gallo, guacamole, creamy slaw, pickled onions, cheese, and salsas (mild green, smoky red, spicy habanero, and chipotle mayo). I also got the Taco Salad, built on a crunchy tortilla bowl along with rice, beans, and all the fixings! Overall, the food here was tasty, and the chips and salsa even came for free. Because everything was prepared and served from a steam table, however, not everything was at peak freshness, but this still made for an affordable, tasty meal!

They make fresh tortillas!!! It's so good! It's chipotle style where all the ingredients are added right in front and you let them know what you want in your tacos/burritos. Food is really flavorful It's on the pricier sides for sure. Shared parking lot, plenty of parking. Indoor and outdoor seating. Place is a bit small. Quick service.

Beautiful place it was described to me from a Nike employee that it is a nicer chipotle. To my surprise she was right the tortillas were made fresh. She literally cook them right in front of us and we had got to dress the tacos however, we wanted. The nice touch Which a lot of restaurants don't do is they gave us free chips and salsa with our meals definitely was worth trying and if you're ever in the area you definitely need to try this out
