When you think of Cinco de Mayo there was one place in all of Miami that dominated the party back in the ’80s and ’90s.  Of course, we’re talking about Cisco’s Cafe.  Cisco’s was an absolute blast.  A great ambiance.  Wonderful interior design.  A fun staff.  And the food was great.

But for Cinco de Mayo, the party evolved to include radio remotes, outdoor tents, live DJ’s, lots of drinks, and lots of dancing.  The event became so popular that cars were parked all along perimeter road with people crossing NW 36th Street to get to the epic once a year event.

Being a single guy in his 20s at the time, I can tell you Cinco de Mayo at Cisco’s Cafe during the ’90s was a can’t miss event where you’d run into old friends you hadn’t seen in a long time and make some new friends, too.

Obviously Cisco’s is gone, but many of our favorite local restaurants are hosting special Cinco de Mayo events including Hole 19 inside the beautiful Miami Springs Golf and Country Club.  Where will you be celebrating Cinco de Mayo tonight?
