5 Mexican restaurants we love in the Birmingham area
Cinco de Mayo is coming up soon, and we’re ready to celebrate if you are. Here are five of our favorite Mexican restaurants in the Birmingham metro area, specializing in cuisine that ranges from casual to fancy.
EL BARRIO
Where: 2211 2nd Ave. North, Birmingham.
Hours: 11:30 a.m.-8 p.m. Tuesdays-Thursdays, 11:30 a.m.-9 p.m. Fridays-Saturdays.
Recipe for success: “Most of our menu items are Mexican-inspired, created from an array of regional recipes,’t he El Barrio website says. “However, we are not of Mexican descent, nor do we claim our dishes taste like those you might have in Mexico. We do strive to make everything taste very good, though.”
