I Came here to during happy hour with my husband. We ordered jalapeño poppers and chicken taquitos on the happy hour menu. It was very affordable!! The taquitos came with a generous amount of guacamole. It was so fresh and had a great flavor!! The chips and salsa were also very tasty! I loved the fact that salsa was spicy 🌶️! The plate I got was steak and enchilada plate! The skirt steak arranchera was marinated throughly.

Located at the Stonewood Center (Firestone and Lakewood Blvd), this restaurant offers a spacious, organized layout with plenty of free parking. I visited with a party of 20 for a birthday celebration; we had reservations and were seated in a semi-private section for a buffet dinner from 7 PM to 9 PM. While the food, beef and chicken fajitas, rice, beans, and salad was tasty, the service was a bit slow. Despite having a large group, we only had one server, which made getting drink refills difficult, especially odd since we were serving ourselves at the buffet. I also found it strange that we weren't allowed to take any of our leftovers home. On the plus side, the Saturday night atmosphere is great, with a DJ in the adjacent bar area. Overall, it was a solid visit, but the service for large

2/5 stars. The food itself was good and came out fresh, but the service was very disappointing. The table we were placed at was dirty for starters. The staff were inattentive and dismissive, and the overall experience made me feel uncomfortable. I also felt that I was being racially profiled, which made the visit even more upsetting. Good food alone isn’t enough to make up for poor service and an environment that doesn’t feel welcoming.

It was my first time here and instantly i feel in love with the vibe , food and I can’t forget the Bone Voyage cocktail. It’s so good and very strong I loved it all. My server Juan H. Was amazing. He made my time very enjoyable with his bubbly personality. I look forward to seeing him and enjoying the great food again.

Our server Juan Herrera was very friendly and fun, we are regulars at Acapulcos Brunch. It’s always a good vibe, bottomless Mimosas, and alot of food options. Lets talk about the Tacos! The lady who makes the handmade tortillas is the best! Her food is amazing and she is so friendly. Coming to get Tacos is the highlight of my visit and she is one of main reasons I love to visit frequently. When they say bottomless Mimosas they mean just that! Definitely worth the price! The staff is amazing! There’s no Mimosa limits- you will be sending the “Are you up Text” at 2:00pm.
