If you're in the mood for some Mexican food on this important holiday. Here are the highest rated places in Wichita Falls.

Where are you going when you get off of work tonight?

Cinco de Mayo is a great excuse to leave work early, eat tortilla chips and drink more tequila than sanity allows, but is it starting to feel just a little bit like the same old thing?
