Sorry folks, as much as we loved acapulcos in amesbury, we have been advised it closed 8/31/19. Rumor is that it will be transformed into a generic, blah 99.

The waiter seemed to have have better things to do than to wait on us, at least that was the attitude he gave us. He practically threw our plates onto the table on his way by. The food was too right out of the box, very generic tasting. We will not be going back.

If you like Mexican food that's the place to go.

First time I've ever paid to get the hell out of a restaurant. This place is absolutely terrible. I've lived in Amesbury for eight years and i have no idea how this place is still in business. I haven't been there in months because of how bad it is. I enjoy the one in Beverly and this place puts a huge blemish on the Acapulco's franchise.

Just went to Acapulco's as we are exploring restaurants in this area! It was really empty inside and the servers didn't seem to understand English very well which I felt bad because it was hard to communicate. We got the taquitos that were delicious and the guacamole was very fresh. For entrees, my wife got a chimichanga that was a big portion. I wonder why it's so empty inside!

Stayed at nearby Hampton Inn on way back from Boston and had dinner here - very close to hotel. Bartender was great and met his parents at the bar. Felt like real locals and had a great time.

Worst Mexican restaurant in all of Massachusetts.. frozen taquitos are better than this place.. it is a disappointment and a complete let down the food is bland and came out cold.. the service is great but the food is garbage

This probably the worst Mexican food I have ever eaten. Very expensive for the quality of food they serve.

The food here was really good! The manager who took my order was very nice and the service was quick. Come here if you like Mexican food and are nearby.

This is my favorite Mexican place around. Their menu has tons of options but I highly recommend the cheese enchiladas!

Hey guys (and gals, if you're sensitive about that), it's ya boy, Jim Months. Ate at this place the other day and felt my tits-to-toes analyzation had to be spread amongst the great people of the Seacoast/North Shore area. So buckle up cuz we about to nose dive into this. DISCLAIMER : We dined in at 4 o'clock on a Tuesday so my associates and I will give them a bonus half star for being "those people". My two friends--Bug and The A** Man--and I pull up into the lot. "Let's do this", I said. Ready to go down on some thicc Mexican cuisine. Open the door to be welcome by the chiming of a Christmas bell. The missable neon "open" sign was lit, but the establishment was reminiscent of that old History Channel show "Life After People". The gumballs in the machine adjacent from the hostess desk were about as colorless as an aryan in a blizzard and had probably been there since the Toba catastrophe. After a very awkward, uncomfortable 3 minutes of waiting, a kind man, most likely the manger, greets us with a wonderfully day-brightening attitude and showed us to our table sat next to the front window; perfect vantage point for scoping out the entire place. This man would also be our waiter for the afternoon. The menus provided were so worn and rough around the edges I am convinced it was the first laminated thing ever. Now if there's one thing I always look for when dining on authentic claimed mexican food, it's carnitas. Love carnitas. Sure enough they were available on the menu so ya boy orders himself the carnitas dish even though they have tacos too. I reassured the man I preferred the dish over the tacos. As we wait for our food, chips and salsa were provided and sweet Jesus it is the most garlicky salsa ever consumed in my life; which isn't too big a deal for me because I don't mind garlic. Although this restaurant has been around for some time or so I'm told, it looks like it had been setup within the last year on a tight budget. The Mexicano themed architecture within the building itself was that equivalent to that of an eighth grade art project. It felt as though the place had been a different business before and was flipped 7 minutes before we walked in. Even the "brick wall" directly to my left was painted and hurt more to realize it wasn't real than it would be to full force punch it and was real. And the place was so dimly lit I could hardly see into the back. Between the conversation between me and my two bros the only two sounds droning on in the background are 80's-sounding Latin American music and the manager in the bar area talking to a friend about an acquaintance of theirs coming out of the closet (good for him). I've never been in a labyrinth before but had there not been a restroom sign I would have been so lost, would not be writing this, and would have eventually run out of the will to live and my sharp-dressed skeleton would be yet another Dia de los Muertos decoration in the Acapulco's storage closet. The restroom itself felt like it was stolen from a different restaurant and did not fit with the aesthetic of the rest of the establishment. The walls in fact were covered in sheet metal and I almost left because I thought I had walked into an armored truck by mistake. Why am I reviewing the restrooms you ask? Because we use them sometimes ya big d*** idiot. Very clean though. Food didn't take too long. Remember when I ordered the carnitas PLATE and NOT the TACOS? Take a wild guess what our host/waiter/bartender put down in front of me. The man asked if I wanted to have tacos exchanged for what I initially ordered but I figured it was already there and didn't want to waste anyone else's time. The tacos themselves were ugh. Big fat Charlie Brown "ugh". This dish collectively was okay, but the tacos were ugh. The texture of the corn tortillas were smack dab in the middle of what they
