Tacos 5 De Mayo - Hawaiian Gardens

Taqueria 5 Mayo, despite promising authentic flavors and a diverse menu, disappoints with its inconsistency in operating hours, often closing early and leaving customers, especially on the coveted Taco Tuesday, unfulfilled. The unreliability in its hours impacts its overall rating, earning it a meager 1 out of 5, as the early closures seem to be a recurring theme mirrored by several Yelp reviews. Photos taken at 645pm when they supposedly close at 8pm.

Read reviews that they would be closed during work hours and figured they showed up 30min before closing, however 645pm on taco Tuesday is ridiculous

Great food, fantastic service. Everything is fresh! A very delicious and good place to eat. Ambiance is nice as well, with the music and good A/C. A good place to come for the first time or to keep coming back! :

We arrived way before their posted closing time and were confused because the tables and chairs were put away and stacked as if the place was closed. It was also a Saturday so it did not make much sense.There were only two ladies working so we had to put out chairs down and move some tables around. We ordered some tacos and mulitas. The tacos de asada were delicious! It just took a while for them to get them done due to short staffing I'm sure.They also told someone that came after us that they had no more carne asada meat so I wonder if that is also why they tried to close?For paying the cashier did not know how to print us a receipt and we had to remind her like 4 times of what we had ordered. Overall, 7/10

Awesome carne asada tacos on fresh hand made tortillas! Everybody needs to try this place because there are very few this good.
