Eat at San Angel Inn Restaurante – the occasional rumble of a volcano, the sounds of distant songbirds, a Mayan pyramid and an all Mexican-colonial style is all you need to enjoy the best tastes of Mexico. Grab a margarita y disfruten the fantastic ambiance!

In case you didn’t know, Cinco de mayo commemorates the Mexican Army’s victory over the French Empire at the Battle of Puebla, and what better opportunity than to learn more about Mexico and Mexican culture in the Mexico pavilion at Epcot in Walt Disney World Resort! ¡Nos vemos allá!

  • Thank you Disney! Most people do not know the reason for the holiday. A good mixture of Disney fun and education. Walt, often did that.
