Top Taco and Margarita Picks for a Fun Cinco de Mayo
Cinco de Mayo is a fun and exciting holiday celebrated every year to commemorate a battle victory that marked Mexico's march toward independence. Our real estate agents invite you to raise a glass (a margarita glass, that is) and savor a taco or two when you celebrate Cinco de Mayo 2025 right here in the Twin Cities.
No matter whether you're interested in Minneapolis homes for sale or St. Paul homes for sale, you will never be far from authentic Mexican cuisine when you choose to live in the Twin Cities. In fact, some of the top chefs in the business got their start right here, minutes away from some of the most desirable local properties.
- El Jefe Cocina and Bar – 2916 Lyndale Ave. S, Minneapolis, MN 55408
El Jefe Cocina and Bar is one of the most widespread Mexican cuisine brands in the Twin Cities, with its central Minneapolis location and its popular food trucks. You can sample from a complete menu of Mexican mainstays while you choose from indoor or outdoor seating. There are private catering options, too. - Sonora Mexican Kitchen and Bar – 1414 Nicollet Ave., Minneapolis, MN 55403

Colita is an award-winning Mexican restaurant led by Chef Daniel del Prado. Born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, he blends South American, Italian, and Spanish influences in his carefully prepared menu.

The thrilling celebration will take the form of a block party with live music, all happening right in the parking lot off West 7th Street. There'll be a petting zoo, face painting, and (of course) plenty of margaritas. - Cancun Mexican Grill & Cantina – 1641 Rice St., St. Paul, MN 55117
