My wife and I have been coming here for a year or two, I have reviewed the food before but this review is a shout out for the staff, specifically the hostess/waitress Jay. She has been welcoming us into the restaurant over the past year. She is always so kind and welcoming, super helpful. Tonight we returned after a few month hiatus and were finally able to chat with her as she took care of us. We thought she deserved a shout out for her work, not only for tonight but our entire time there

Great cocktails, unique and delicious flavors of food! Duck leg was my favorite - crispy, tender and delicious mole sauce. Had the churros and homemade ice cream - again amazing and unique flavors. Tortilla is a must try!
Acopio is an absolute gem! The food is fresh, clearly msde frim scratch and AMAZING. The service is warm, friendly, and attentive. We can't wait to come back.

Wow! What a discovery!!!! We had dinner at Acopio and it really knocked our socks off!!!! The dishes are all unique and beautifully curated. Definitely expected something special because of the reviews but our dinner was outstanding. Everything is homemade down to the ice cream. Definitely give Acopio a try!!

Great little hidden place. Great food and great drinks!
TBH I was hesitant at first to eat at Acopia. As a vegan, most Mexican restaurants do not usually have options for me. Their menu is somewhat minimal and limited, so entered with few expectations or hopes that I could order anything more than a salad. However, I was pleasantly surprised! The owner came to our table and was most accommodating. I ordered a succulent nopales salad, street corn and some delicious blue corn sopes de calabasita (zucchini and flower). It was all quite tasty and I was even more surprised when she brought out some vegan mayo AND vegan cheese to top off my food with more flavor.
The atmosphere is very modern and simply styled, mirroring their “chic” food menu. I found the food delicious though a bit on the bland side, but was grateful that they came through for me and my vegan diet. I left sated and happy that I could fully participate in the meal alongside my meat-eating friends. The owner was very thoughtful and really went out of her way to make sure I had plenty of choices to order. Although it was a bit pricey, I will definitely go back again. The modern ambiance, the attentive service and the fancy yet rustic food combined to make a lovely evening meal.

A group of our friends just shared an extraordinary meal at Acopio's. The food was amazing with creativity, colorful presentation, and flavors that are on par with Michelin Star! The most tender and delicious blackened dry chilie spice rubbed flank steak paired with pickled onions, butter lettuce/asian greens and home made tortillas, tuna crudo and oyster snacks, pomegranate gelatin egg nog dish, and passion fruit sorbet was just part of a special tasting menu that greeted our plates with yummy delight. Our hats are off to the owners and chefs for a job very well done. We can't wait to come back!
Dietary restrictions: Acopio's staff was very responsive towards any dietary restrictions or preferences and offered delicious acceptable substitutes (non-alcoholic beverages, non-fish choices).

Lovely hidden gem, upscale service, friendly and knowledge staff, celebrated a birthday and the bartender made it extra special! Every dish was beautiful and delicious! Definitely a date night spot and or small party location! Did I mention, EVERYTHING was delicious, drinks, agua frescas, desserts and all the dishes!
Great upscale Mexican food in an unsuspecting neighborhood! We tried the mushroom, steak, and pork tacos—all delicious, but the mushroom tacos were my favorite. The duck with mole was exceptional, featuring crispy skin and a rich, flavorful mole sauce. Every dish had beautiful presentation. The drinks and desserts are also worth a try, with the flan at the end perfectly rounding out the meal.
The decor was very nice, resembling the kind of restaurant you’d find in Santana Row or downtown Palo Alto, just outside the hustle and bustle. I definitely want to come back for more! Although the location might be a bit out of the way, it’s absolutely worth the trip for some authentic Mexico City-style cuisine. Highly recommended!
Vegetarian options: Definitely try the mushroom tacos

The nicest Mexican restaurant I’ve been to. Was there during happy hour and tried the elote, papitas, kanpachi, aguachile, tomato toast, mole, ice cream bar, and churro. Enjoyed it all… especially the mole!
