If there’s ever a day to go out and enjoy a Margarita, tacos and other great Mexican cuisine in the Hamptons and North Fork, Cinco de Mayo is the time to do it!

May 5 commemorates the date in 1862 when General Ignacio Zaragoza and his Mexican troops defeated French invaders in the Battle of Puebla. The underdog victory against a better equipped force was a massive morale boost. It was not, however, Mexican Independence Day, as many believe.

So celebrate with some Mexican food, and drink some yummy cocktails at our latest Dan’s Best of the Best-winning East End spots, along with some other eateries we couldn’t leave out.
