Celebración! Cinco de Mayo, or the fifth of May, is known to most people as the day that Mexico was freed. But to Texans, it is a celebratory holiday to enjoy Mexican cuisine, drinks, good people, and a great party!

What better place to have fun this upcoming Cinco de Mayo than at Mattito’s!

Cinco de Mayo will be properly celebrated at Mattito's at 7778 Forest Lane; and the newest location in Las Colinas at 1001 MacArthur Park Drive. DJ music kicks -off the fiesta at 2:00 p.m. at each location, joined by a face painter and master magician Marty Westerman. $4 margaritas and $3 beer are available 2:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m., along with the award-winning Tex-Mex cuisine all night.

Beginning at 2:00 p.m. inside the restaurant and outdoor tent in the adjacent parking lot, the Mexican holiday is commemorated with mariachis, DJ music, mechanical bull rides and tequila tastings compliments of Corozon Tequila, games and prizes, and of course, drink specials and cuisine from the award-winning Tex-Mex menu. Celebrity D J Brandon Olds starts at 6:00 p.m. and  The Monco Poncho band takes the stage at 7:30 p.m. Adding to the excitement, Mattito's will give away 1000 cap guns to attendees to blast off during the bands shows. The Routh Street location will host its Third Annual Bob Armstrong Queso Eating Contest at 8:15 p.m. as part of its Cinco de Mayo party.
