After having dealt with this establishment for ten years and nothing but good to say about the food and the staff- a new "manager" appears and everything goes to mierda. The guy is rude, cuts the portions down, treats the staff like cr$@, replaces top shelf with p&$? etc etc. no loyalty to loyal customers, bien tanto. I feel for the staff and the patrons- el cres mucho pero es un cucaracha. So sad that a great place has to be brought down by one unprofessional burro. Its off to Fiesta Cancun, I hear they remember loyal patrons.

I have been a patron of this family owned business since they opened. I have tried every Mexican establishment in town. I believe this place is best Mexican food in town.It is not balls like others. Their guacamole is superb. I love and support that they do not want people carrying firearms in the establishment. It makes me extremely uncomfortable to see patrons carrying weapons. The Fajita Nachos Supreme is my favorite! Excellent food and good services!

What used to be a restaurant we loved has now become a place I will never step foot in again. We used to eat here at least 2 times a week. Today at the door they had freshly applied "gun buster" notifications that means a legal resident with a HCP from the state of Tennessee is not legally allowed to carry their LEGAL handgun in the establishment. I will no longer support a business that infringes upon my right as a legal gun owning citizen.

Why are you so wonderful? Stands out amongst the El Tapatio, Mangos, Casa Mexicana class. Guadalupana on North Washington is hands-down my favorite authentic Mexican restaurant in Cookeville, but it is much more of an intimate family kitchen experience there, and they will never have fishbowl margaritas. So if you want festive, go to Cinco, because they are their own sort of delicious, and such great people.

Went to this for the first time last week. Food was OK, service was lousy. The biggest problem I have is the "No concealed carry" sign prominently posted outside the door. It is their choice to declare their restaurant a "Defense-free" zone full of targets. It is my choice to choose to spend my money where I can defend my family. Get with the program, folks. This isnt New York, Its Tennessee.

I go here about every 2 - 3 weeks, Everytime I go, Im never disappointed. The waiters are extremely thoughtful, The wait time is usually fast, the food is really delicious. Id rather go here , rather than El Tap. My Favorite Entree is "Pollo Ala Crema" Chicken , Onions, Mushrooms, Drenched in Queso cheese sauce, & served with a portion of rice and refried beans , with tortillas. SO good!

Not my choice of places to go for Mexican but I went with friends. I cannot believe how awful this place is! The service was terrible, waiter was rude, we had to ask other people to help us, the food was as gross as it looked! I never go there! Never! I wont again! My choice is Fiesta Cancun! You just cannot beat Francisco and his family/team!!!!

A LOT of food for the price!!! Amazing salsa and margarita!!! I purchased the large and was buzzed by half the drink. No wimpy drinks here. And I have high tolerance to the alcohol. One drink does it beware. Fajita was awesome too. Ton of food cheap. Good price. Waiter was very attentive. We need more places like this is Johnson city!!!

Had the absolute best pulled chicken burrito ever. it wasnt on the menu, but when I asked my server J.R, he said "no problem we can make you what you want". He is an excellent server and the food is as well. thanks for the great service J.R and thank you Cinco Amigos for the greatest food Ive ever had and a great price as well. A++

This restaurant is the best Mexican food Ive ever had anywhere in Tennessee. The food is always high quality, and the service is beyond great. If youre in a hurry, this place serves food more quickly than some fast food restaurants; and the food is completely fresh! Trust me, its in your best interests to try them out.

Ive only been here three times, and Ive had fairly inconsistent experiences thus far in terms of service. A couple of times the staff were very inattentive even though it was not busy. The other time it was great. As food goes, its solid fare and I would say that Cinco and El Tap are about on par with one another.

Wonderful staff, service, drinks and food! The owners are outstanding people which shines through to all aspects of their business. If you havent been here, you are definitely missing out. You cant get this quality of food, service, or ambiance for triple the price in all of Cookeville.

Great service, excellent food. The layout of the building is great. Unlike some other restaurants in the area, its easy to hold a private conversation without needing to shout. Conversations from other tables are muted by the high-backed booth seating and smart wall placement.

This is our favourite Mexican place in Cookeville. I use to be their mailman. Great food and fast service. We have been going here since they first opened. We moved to Florida 5 years ago. We still look forward to dropping in when we go back to visit family.

My families favorite restaurant. Every time we are there we are treated like family. Fast friendly service. Nicest servers around, and Ive yet to have a meal I didnt fully enjoy. You wont be disappointed. Also love the patio!

They were busy, but our food came out lightning fast. Everything was hot and delicious. I got the biggest plate of fajitas Ive ever seen, and it was mostly meat, Not just lots of veggies! A great price for excellent food!

Great chicken and steak dishes that have a ton of taste. You can tell the vegetables are fresh and the salsa is good too. Only thing that could be better is having hot chips everytime. Tech discount is a big bonus.

The salsa actually had flavor with a kick! Ive been to a couple other Mexican restaurants and their salsa wasnt very good! I ordered a steak burrito and it was great! Im looking forward to going back real soon!

The food was very good am and the prices were surprisingly affordable for families. The staff made us feel welcome and everyone helped with our enjoying our short stay. I will go back next time we are in town.

Excellent staff, food, and low prices. Your fajitas arrive in 5 minutes on your tables, hot and sizzling. I have known that place for 20 years now and it gets five stars from me. Most highly recommended place.

By far my favorite Mexican restaurant in Cookeville. The food has taste. Its not like a barely glorified version of Taco Bell, as is the case with some of them. If I wanted Taco Bell, I would go to Taco Bell!
