Authentic Mexican food, ordered and was ready in 15 minutes for pickup. Large portions for a good price! Food tasted great, still hot and fresh when we got it home. Will order again and dine in, in the future.

Hidden gem in the middle of North Tonawanda. Awesome authentic Mexican cuisine for a very reasonable price. We went there on Friday night, the place was very busy, but we didn’t have to wait to get seated. Tacos are the best in town! Highly recommend!

Consistently good Mexican food; have been in many times and everything has always been enjoyable. I’ve never been blown away with the food and would claim it to be be the best, but you can rely on the food coming out hot and fresh, as well … More

This is me and my husband's new favorite Mexican spot! Everything was fabulous! The tacos were done to perfection, the edges of the tortillas were crispy, the meat was succulent but not fatty at all. I also got a Super Burrito and that was huge! The sauce they put over it had such a good flavor! The mango mojito was strong, fruity, and delicious! And the Chili Relleno appetizer was the best I've ever had, no joke!

We were extremely disappointed in the food here. The guacamole was overwhelmingly acidic from just too much lines and when we asked about it the waiter said — it’s just what we have today. … More

On the way back home from Niagara Falls, we wanted to have some bear or something, but we couldn't be served due to their circumstances. Taste was not so great because 3 out of 5 of us didn't like all the dishes there. However, 2 of us enjoyed our food.

This was our first time here, family suggested it, and it was great!
The Acapulco has a salsa bar so you can try different salsa’s (they are not labeled so if you don’t like spice beware!) to compliment your free chips.
The decorations are such fun! I love the detail work on all the booths and chairs.
Plates were huge but the food was a good size portion (plenty of room to stir). We all ordered something different but I am IN LOVE with their garlic shrimp! Super garlicky and delicious!

Ok food and service could use more training.
Food is not a biggie, restaurant needs to be updated.
We were on a family trip and food was kind of disappointing in some cases.
When you eat tacos a this place you will have to go out of your seat and put the onions, cilantro and others condiments. That's not correct. Restaurant is not displayed as a Mexican taco buffet.
My brother in law eat a kind of sea soup amd the soup wasn't fresh. The waitress don't know the menu.
So I'll give the place a two star.

The good, my waitress was wonderful. The bad the food was okay, not all that Great, and kind of bland. Frankly. About the same flavor as Taco Bell. The ugly, the greeter, a surly little thing, who is either non-verbal, or can't be bothered with the patrons. Either way The owners would be wise to have someone else meet the patrons. We are very fortunate in Buffalo to have excellent Mexican restaurants. This is not one of them.

This food was really good! I got an alert from Yelp that a new “bar” was in town, I took a look and it was just 7 min from our house. The food was REALLY good! Large portions for a great price. We enjoyed refreshing margaritas, and our waiter even offered us a couple tequila shots on the house. The service was amazing, and we will be coming back for sure. Keep up the great work!

We’ve had good food here in the past, which is why we came back. Unfortunately, our last two visits were disappointing, mainly due to poor service.
Both times, our table felt ignored, with servers seeming more focused on … More

AMAZING!!
I’ve been wanting to try here, it keeps popping up on the Too Good To Go app and has great ratings, just not in the area a ton. Tonight it worked out.
The food is absolutely delicious!
Restaurant is also clean and staff is nice! Love the outdoor area for better weather. I’ll definitely be coming back!

I decided to go here for my 45th birthday dinner and I absolutely loved this restaurant. Service was excellent, we had a nice private booth, cool atmosphere, even interesting artwork. There’s very few, minor reasons I took a star off. … More

Very fresh authentic Mexican food that reminds me of food I've had in Rosarito. Everyone who works here is nice and the food comes out fast. The homemade salsa and Mojitos are great.
It's very casual.
I had the enchiladas verdes shown in the picture, with mango mojito.

The food is very tasty, and the atmosphere is great. However, I would highly recommend ceramic tableware and glassware, as plastic utensils retain grease and unpleasant odors.
