With Cinco de Mayo falling on Sunday this year, expect three-day parties at restaurants throughout Southern California.

Full service restaurants are offering special brunches and discounts on margaritas, while quick service chains are offering burrito discounts and catering for private parties.

And some chains that aren’t known for Mexican food are getting in on the action with special sweets.

Here’s a sampling of what restaurant chains have announced on their websites, in social media or in news releases.
