All five of the Tucson-area El Charro Café locations are throwing down in a most serious manner for the Cinco de Mayo weekend. While the festivities seem to largely include super-cheap drinks – 90 cent mini-Mexican beers and Sauza margaritas – there will also be 90 cent chicken tacos and tamales to be had.
That, my friends, is a recipe for Cinco de Mayo revelry. The best thing? It happens on Friday and Saturday, May 4 and 5. There’s more on the restaurant – which turns 90 this year – over here.

What is a “mini-Mexican beers” the mini part ?
@ jeff jones – my guess is smaller, as in smaller than a 12oz.
there are also coronita’s – 7oz.
There are still 5 El Charro’s? Court, Broadway, Green Valley… and….
I will name him…mini-me.
