Celebrating Cinco de Mayo in Briarcliff, Pleasantville

Briarcliff Manor, Pleasantville restaurants are celebrating Cinco de Mayo this weekend.

The celebration of Mexican heritage on May 5 is sometimes mistaken for Mexico’s Independence Day. However, Cinco de Mayo actually commemorates the Battle of Puebla, a turning point in Mexican history and freedom. 

In the U.S., it is celebrated by observing Mexican culture through food, drinks and dancing. If you are looking for a fiesta with margaritas, live bands and authentic food locally, Guadalajara Mexican Restaurant in Briarcliff Manor and Don Juan Mexican Restaurant in Pleasantville are both celebrating Cinco de Mayo all weekend.
