My family and I had an amazing dine in experience. Our server Juan Herrera made this first time experience such a pleasant environment. I will for sure be coming to Acapulco Restaurant again. The food was delicious 😋 and the vibes was very homey.

I had a fantastic experience at your restaurant! The atmosphere was warm and inviting, the staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, and the food was absolutely delicious. Every dish was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. I truly appreciated the attention to detail and the excellent service throughout my visit. I'll definitely be coming back and recommending your restaurant to friends and family!
