Cinco's Cantina

Born and raised in Northern Mexico, brothers Crescencio and Miguel journeyed to the U.S. with a shared dream: to build careers, raise families, and create something of their own. In 2014, they opened their first restaurant, Cinco de Mayo Bar & Grill, right here in Downtown Dover. In 2023, it became Cinco’s Cantina, bringing their three locations together under one name.

Cinco’s is known for authentic Mexican cuisine, bold flavors, refreshing margaritas, and a vibrant atmosphere. Their team embodies the kind of warm hospitality that makes you feel like part of the family as soon as you step through the door. Their menu is packed with favorites, like Birria and Al Pastor, with plenty of options for different tastes and dietary preferences, including many vegetarian and gluten free dishes.

Led by Crescencio and Miguel, along with their wives Erin and Asia, Cinco’s Cantina is a true family operated business where members of the next generation Tellez crew are often involved.

Giving back has been a huge part of the Cinco’s story since the beginning. Over the past decade, Cinco’s has donated more than $100,000 to local schools, nonprofits, youth organizations, and community initiatives through sponsorships, partnerships, and direct donations. Additionally, their weekly Fiesta Fundraiser program gives local organizations the opportunity to receive 20% of participating sales—one of the many ways Cinco’s give back to the communities that have supported their family over the years.

Cinco’s Cantina is open for lunch and dinner seven days a week, with locations in Dover, Epping, and Downtown Rochester.

Family owned and operated since 2014, Cinco's Cantina offers handcrafted margaritas and authentic Mexican cuisine.
