    Acapulco is one of our go to Mexican chain restaurants with this particular location being in Florence. We have been to this location many times and they've always been good to us and this was no exception. We started with our usual starter of Chori-Queso. It's a queso dip with the addition of chorizo and is so classically delicious. Just love it. For my main course I got one of my Acapulco favourites; The Seafood Burrito. It's a flour tortilla stuffed with crab, shrimp, and topped with cheese (it also comes with onions but I had them left off. It also comes with rice on the side. It is so delicious as they put so much shrimp and crab in there and that cheese topping something special. This is a super delicious burrito that I highly recommend. The Mexican rice was great too. The service was fine and the restaurant looked clean and very festive. All in all another great lunch at Acapulco.

    Hands down the best Mexican restaurant in NKY! The food was absolutely amazing/delicious! Good service. Clean location. And fun decor!! It's a must try and it was packed!! There is another one on mall road but this one seems waaay better!! Hit them up and check it out!! The carnitas was phenomenal!

    Nice. But not great as expected from the reviews. Huge margaritas but.. very pricey. Food was okay ...I'm not impressed and will try another place (or more before returning. (PS ILYKLW(

    Burrito California

    California burrito is so good. Service is quick. Good Mexican restaraunt vibes. Ghfhghghghg

    Burris Tacos de Birria Carnitas instead of beef

    The food was so good they accommodated to me not eating beef. Our server was super nice and brought out the food quickly. The vibe was nice and we sat in the high booth my favorite super comfy.

    The food was decent, not the best Mexican food I have had. The service was fantastic though! The waiter was very attentive. The location is very convenient and the restaurant was very clean and nice. Good place for a date night.

    We stopped by on a whim, and boy were we so pleasantly surprised!!! We've been to many Mexican and…read moreTexMex places so we assumed this would be not much different. WRONG! The menu has so many more options--including my favorite horchata beverage! The salsa was so delicious, as were the refried beans, and everything else. The service is fantastic! We did not have to wait for drink refills or someone to check back with us. Our food arrived quickly and as ordered. They were working together so well, so KUDOS!!! It has a fun and laid back atmosphere which is perfect for all family and friends. We will definitely be back!

    So the first few photos has great reviews. We don't eat in a lot, we prefer to pick up otw home…read morefrom work for the family. This use to be a fav of ours (the salsa is literally my fav salsa in my area of restaurants and there are a lot!) but each visit they seem to forget more and more. For a place with a free salsa bar they are the WORST on forgetting stuff. So today I placed an order, you usually get a teeny tiny salsa and a bag of chips complimentary.... I ordered 5x side of extra salsa (which I was charged for) I received two salsas one tiny bag of chips. This is literally what I get complimentary at most restaurants, and you charged me extra?!?!? Anyways the hostess/waitress totally went and got me my extra salsas and another bag of chips. God love her. I left and realized omg they didn't give me my kids sopapilla (sorry if I misspelled). I had to turn around and go back. Again the lady was sweet as can be. She got my dessert and threw in some queso. But then I get home. The order for Al pastor tacos..... Said steak cooked in a spicy salsa..... nope it was dry unseasoned steak in a corn tortilla with a bunch of canned pineapples. The order I placed said it was served with pico and tomatillo sauce (received neither), and like I said COVERED in canned pineapple tidbits..... did not say that in the description. And again NO SAUCES.... My son gets mozzarella cheese sticks.... NO MARINARA like it said in the description.... The cheese sticks were so over done the breading was empty.... It was burnt cheese in a pan with no sauce. I love the food here and my hostess/server handling my order was super sweet but it's honestly the last time I let this place get one over on me on a take out order

    First time at this place and I approve. You walk in and it feels like a museum. They have so much…read morestuff on the walls and different items everywhere.....very cool atmosphere. I went there with my crew (I'm a flight attendant) for Christmas Eve and the captain wanted to buy us all drinks. I don't usually drink but had one since it was a holiday. I got the Kings Punch and WOW!! Couldn't even taste the alcohol and that's the kind of drink I like. Drank the whole thing and honestly could have had more but didn't wanna get drunk so I stuck to just one. For the food, no idea that they had ordered an appetizer cause I wasn't paying attention. I didn't get a picture but this thing was HUGE. It had SO MUCH stuff on it and everything I had was delicious. For my meal I decided to go with a kids meal because between the appetizer and free chips and salsa I was already getting full. I ordered the beef tacos which came with rice, beans and even dessert at the end. For a kids meal it was HUGE!! I don't eat a lot so this was perfect for me. And like I assumed, I couldn't even finish and took most of it home. For the dessert I got an orange push pop which tasted like my childhood. So good!! If you come here, bring an extra stomach cause they DO NOT skimp on the portions. Would definitely go back!

    I've been here MANY times and it's a frequent restaurant we visit. You can't go wrong with Chuy's…read more EVERYTIME we've been the service has been great. The restaurant is always clean and the atmosphere is nice. You're always given chips and salsa and the creamy jalapeño dip which is DELICIOUS. They'll give you more chips if you ask. Their shrimp tacos are my favorite. But the chicken tacos, chicken flautas, enchiladas, fajitas and more are all super good! I love the boom boom sauce. Literally you can't go wrong with anything on their menu. I always leave full and satisfied after eating here. I will definitely continue supporting Chuy's as I always have.
