Super fun place to be when it’s warm out. Sea food options specifically are a stand out for this Acapulco. Service is always so nice.

The skinny margarita was perfect, the medium size was similar to a large at other places (at least for specialty marg). The meat was really good and the tres leches IS SO GOOD. Not sure if this is all the time but it had walnuts in it

We arrived and were seated almost immediately. It took about 10 minutes for chips and salsa to arrive, even though the restaurant was not busy. After finally placing our order, the food took an unusually long time to come out. We have been coming here for many years and it’s always been a favorite, but the last few visits have been extremely disappointing. This time was by far the worst. My burrito had all the meat burnt to a crisp. The other three meals were also absolutely terrible — one included a hard shell taco that came out cold and soggy. When we asked for that taco to be taken off the bill, it was still charged. When I mentioned all of these issues to the person at the front, he simply shrugged and said, “Well, maybe better next time.” Our bill was $90 and honestly wasn’t worth $5. Sadly, we will not be coming back, which is a shame given how much we used to love this place.

The chips and cheese/salsa dip are usually on point. I like a variety of items from here. Usually can't go wrong when getting something from here. I've been multiple times. Will go again, and continue to keep going. I like the little outside patio also.
I gave the service a 4 star because 1 time Ive been there and was seated on the patio.... I get they were busy, but we didn't get service for 25 minutes if not better. The service was horrible the whole night because of the waitress. But, that was the only time it has ever happened to me there. All the other times it has been good.

This place is GREAT!! We stopped after leaving CVG to drive home to Lexington. We just wanted a small meal because it was late. We each ordered 2 soft tacos a la carte. I’m not sure what size I expected, but it was way bigger than anything I expected! I could not eat both! The salsa was good and we had cheese dip which was good, typical. The restaurant was clean and well decorated; the restrooms were very clean and pretty. Everyone was friendly and the service was lightning fast!! I mean REALLY fast!! I do not have anything negative to say! We pinned this on our map so we know exactly where to go when in the area! And with the Bengals, we are in the area quite a bit!

Great food here. And they don't skimp on the margaritas. Everything tasted homemade. The menu is extensive and I would wager everything is delicious. So many Mexican families were eating here and that is also a great sign of an authentic restaurant.
