“ Loved the margs here! Good menu and the wet burrito was amazing! ”
“ I've been looking for an old school Mexican restaurant for about a year now and I'm so happy to have found Acapulco! I have the enchiladas cheese and chicken and they were amazing! Got chips and salsa for free which is very rare these days! The only downfall was my soda was 4 a wee bit overpriced. My server Isabella was absolutely amazing the atmosphere was wonderful. I highly recommend this restaurant! ”
“ This place is amazing! Reasonable prices and the Chile Verde was yummy! Try the Fundito Queso and the Wine Margaritas.. DELICIOUS!! It's our new favorite spot! Thanks also for the great service Miguel! ”
“ The host was very pleasant and accommodating. Even though they were short staffed and only had one server, she was amazing and paid careful to every single table. ”
“ The food and drinks were good, friendly service, and classic old style restaurant. Booths were a little worn, but that added to the classic vibe. ”
“ I have been going here for 40 years. It is family owned and run by one family, and it is a clean and friendly place. The food does not disappoint, and it is worth the drive from anywhere in the Bay Area. One of the last, really good Mexican food places. Worth a trip to try it! ”
“ Good food with generous portions. Prices are as reasonable as ever. Wait staff is friendly and attentive, much like the previous owners. As a 20-year patron of this restaurant, who resisted the 'recent' changing of the guard, I was pleasantly surprised with both the quality and pride of service. Would recommend, and will always remember the portrait lined walls and virgin strawberry daquiris of my youth. A timeless hang-out, run by unforgettable people! ”
“ This was such a nice surprise! We thought it was part of Acapulco chain. Turned out it was a family run stand alone place. Very good food and comfortable atmosphere. I think it was a really good "mistake" lol that we found this place. Highly recommend going there. My daughter had carne asada plate, I had taco/enchilada combo. We had the cheese/jalapeno dip and guacamole/chips for appetizers. Chips were warm. Delicious! Oh, also we had a margarita and Pina colada. Also very enjoyable. ”
