Food wonderful. Unfortunately,service not good. I have been here multiple occasions and each time has been a trend. Waiters either rush and throw ur food on ur table (actually splashing on me) or completely ignore u. These are the only experiences I have had. And it's been at least over ten times. Upsetting. :( read more

The chips, salsa & queso are fantastic. The steak & cheese burrito is phenomenal. The chicken enchiladas verde were good, but too vinegar-y for my taste that night. The only issues we had were with being seated and ordering. When we came in and stated a party of 3, we were given 2 menus & 2 sets of silverware. After we had ordered our food, our same server came back and asked if we were ready to order again. We laughed it off, but thought it bore mentioning. Again, the food was good and came as ordered and hot, but the service was strictly average. read more

I have always loved this restaurant but then went today and they sat us at a dirty table. I opened my menu and it had crusted food all over it. Immediately lost my appetite. My booth was really small also so we were stuffed in like sardines. Not a pleasant experience. read more

Some of the best Mexican food I've ever eaten! Prices are decent as well! We went on a Friday night, had fairly quick service and a delicious meal! read more

My wife and I decided to try this place over the weekend, we usually go to El Jinete in Taylor Mill. Portion sizes aren't quite as big as El Jinete and the staff isn't quite as friendly. The adavantages over El Jinete are that their method of cooking meats it's much more tender and juicy and their complimentary salsa is much better. read more

Always a good experience! Excellent food and Margarita with Sangria swirl, anyone? Love this place!

I love the grilled chicken tacos. I can say this meal is always good but anything else that I've tried it's hit or miss. I don't like how the restaurant smells of cleaner and the bathroom is not very clean. read more

Up until this moment this has been one of my favorite places to eat. I called an order in using Yelp. I placed the order while in route. I arrived within 3 minutes. I told the staff my order and was told that they dis jot have it. They told me I must have called the other location and that I would need to go there to pick it up. I called the number in my phone to cancel the order only to find out I had placed the order in another state. That restaurant understood and canceled the order for me since it was 600 miles away. I called this location back and they refused to take my order. They kept saying I had to go to the restaurant where I placed the order. Even after I explained everything to them they refused to take my order. I will never return. read more

I would say that Acapulco is one of the best places to eat in NKY. The menu is huge, the only problem is choosing what you'd like! The only negative thing I'd say is that our waiter took a very long time on everything, and my quesadilla came out cold and we had to ask another waiter to grab the check because our waiter never came back after giving the food. Even though that was a bit frustrating, it still tasted great! read more

Yum real Mexican food and great service . If I'm ever back in Kentucky I will stop and eat .

The food is fine at this restaurant--much better than the old Rio Grande location that was here--the portions are entirely TOO big! However, each time we've gone, we have the unfortunate experience of getting the same server, who acts like we're a bother. Each time we enter, we're greeted happily by a host, who then seats us in "Lurch's" section. Last night was no different--I "almost" asked if we could move, but considering it was just us and one other group of diners in the place, I thought that would be rude. I don't know if he doesn't like women, maybe? It's usually my mother, my toddler and I--his demeanor is immediately gruff and rushed, as if you interrupted him from something more important (I mostly saw him folding flatware and talking and laughing in Spanish, watching a soccer game). But, back at our table, he was devoid of any type of social etiquette. The restaurant has a large, detailed menu,so you want to take a little time to look it over. He circled us like sharks, then stopped coming over, then eventually, we had to hail him down. He said, briskly, "you decide?" and then instead of picking up my menu after I'd laid it on the table, he snapped his fingers at me to "give it to him". And I did. I was both angry that he "snapped" his fingers at me like I was a dog, AND that I did what he requested...about this time, I had to ask for chips and salsa. I was told. "they're coming.." After bringing us our food, he never came back--for any reason--no refills, not to ask if we wanted another Tuesday night special Sangria, nothing. Finally finished with dinner, (I ordered the Fajita Quesadilla--huge, but pretty good, honestly), he came to collect our plates and AGAIN, pointed to the plate and gestured for ME to pick it up and hand it to him. This time I didn't. Look, my husband is a server, so I'm all about being polite and assisting--I even clean up after my toddler so they don't have to, but in all honesty, this man is the WORST. And his tip reflected that... read more

Used to have good service. Sat at the bar for 15 minutes and did not take our order, but they looked at us many times. They had no problem serving what appeared to be regulars that sat down right after we did. If you want even descent service, go elsewhere. This place used to be good, but they severely went down hill!!! Used to be a favorite go to of mine, but never again. I cannot comment on their food because they never even took a drink order. read more

My family and I have been regulars at Acapulco for years. With that being said, our last visit was one of the worst restaurant experiences we have ever had. The margaritas(normally our favorite in town) were disgusting. It tasted like there was no alcohol in it. Our waiter was nice, but service was very slow. To top it all off, when we got our food a COCKROACH CRAWLED OUT OF IT. It was disturbing to say the least. We were told we didn't have to pay for our food as soon as the waiter saw the bug, but the overall experience was terrible. I would not recommend going to this place. read more

Mediocre food that tastes like it was frozen and reheated. Plenty of other places to eat so i wouldnt want to return

This is my favorite Mexican place in NKY. Food is good and reasonably priced. The portions are really big so be prepared for that. The menu has a lot of options and there are several vegetarian options. read more

Food is outstanding! Had some bad luck on service. But you can't blame a restaraunt for one bad server. Great price and great drink prices. Highly recommend. read more

We ate at this restaurant for my daughter's 16th birthday. We had 5 adults and 3 children. The server was so rude! He wouldn't make eye contact with any of us and if we asked him for something he wouldn't acknowledge that we spoke. He wouldn't even give us our check so we could pay and leave. We finally decided to go stand up by the register to get his attention. I will never go back to this place! The food was a little bit better than Taco Hell. read more

We were driving back to Louisville from Cincinnati and needed a place to eat. It was a pretty generic Mexican restaurant. Good peach margarita, but the straws don't really fit into the glasses. I had a burrito and a chulupa which were tasty. No paper towels in the bathroom which was a little annoying... Other than that, it was good. read more

Great Service and food was yummy. The place is rather large and has a lot of seating space, so we had no wait. I got the the Chori-Pollo, which is a combination of chorizo sausage and chicken. It was a little greasy but it taste very good. Their salsa is on point, not to hot not to mild and comes to your table as soon as you go in. My only complaint is the amount of time it took to pay for our meal, we have to go to the front counter and there was a line that took about 10 minutes to get to our turn since only 1 person was at the register and it kept getting interrupted with phone calls or other servers. read more

Coming from El Paso, Texas where Mexican food is authentic, expectations were low. After reading all of great reviews, I had to try it. Was very disappointed, from their so called "queso fundido" to their green chicken enchiladas. There was nothing Mexican about it, except the name. read more

Great quality and clean place. The burrito California is amazing if you're a meat lover

This place is really nice. Very clean and great atmosphere. I was here for lunch and had the Acapulco Taco Salad. It was fabulous and priced very reasonabled. Service was great as well. All around it was a good experience and I will go back soon for dinner. read more

Our favorite Mexican restaurant in the area. Food is always great and quick to the table. Yolanda is a gem. We will wait extra time just to have her as our waitress. read more

Drinks are good. Salsa good. Veggie fajitas are great. They've started charging $1 for another serving of chips. Went here for a while, but have switched back to Rio Grande (since they've gotten themselves back together). read more

I was VERY worried about the mass people coming up to check in and I was so worried the wait would be forever!!!! But for a Friday night and the "long" line there was no wait! Very pleased with the place. The looks of it the staff and of course the food! All of it. Set happy as well return for sure. For this being my first time here I give it give stars read more

Delicious food!! Never had a bad meal!! Their service is excellent. Try the fajitas or the enchiladas....delicious!! The chicken burrito a la carte is my favorite small meal. Salsa is fresh and the queso is not runny. Fine Mexican food!! read more

I've been coming here for years. The last couple of times the quality of food has not been good. Tonight hit a all time low. A hair was found in the queso under a burrito. The manager was asked over and his immediate response was that no one in the kitchen had long hair- well neither did anyone at the table. It's disappointing when something like this happens and instead of just owning the issue, a defensive position is taken. Beyond this, the fajitas were more like grilled chicken and almost no fajita flavor and the peppers/onions weren't all the way cooked. read more

Have been here twice in the past two weeks. The food, drinks and service were excellent. I had two different meals and both were wonderful. The premium margarita is incredible but I do suggest a designated driver! read more

I got food poisoning hours after eating here. I am reading previous reviews and am shocked that people think this place serves good mexican food!! It was "ok" at best. The guacamole was disgusting, like pureed baby food. I spent all evening sick as can be after eating here. Never again... there's so many better choices out there! read more

Food is lousy...from a can. Service was marginal. Salsa and chips were great. That is the only thing I can say positive.

Best place in Florence Kentucky to get Mexican better than El Rio Grande and better than chueys excellent

I lived in So Cal for 50 years, born there. I know and love Mexican food well and Acapulco is the best in Florence and N KY. Food is really good as are the Margarita's. Great service, busy place. Quesadilla Acapulco is Excellent! . read more

I have eaten Mexican food literally all over the world and this is by far some of the best that I've had.

The absolute best Mexican food in all of Cincinnati!! Excellent and quick service! Delicious food at a very affordable price.

Had lunch with my wife and the cable installer. Alberto did a good job on installing my cable so we treated him to Acapulco. I ordered the Enchilada and my wife ordered the fish dish. Food was great. The reason I came here was, I wanted the Margarita drink I had before. It was AWESOME!!!, but I didn't order it. The whole reason for me to come here was for the Margarita, oh well next time. Beside the food was GREAT!!! Will be back read more

Nothing negative to say about this place. We went on a weeknight and it wasn't very crowded when we got there, but eventually got packed. I wouldn't say our server was extraordinarily friendly, but service was extremely prompt. We all commented on how quickly our food came out. I thought the chips and salsa were good. I ordered a mango margarita and chicken chimichanga. Both were pretty good. My friends split the chicken fajitas for two and it was a ridiculous amount of food for the price! This is definitely not a bad thing, if you enjoy taking leftovers home. Overall, a good experience. read more

This gem of Mexican restaurant is nestled in a strip center on Mall Rd in Florence. It's not very sexy on the exterior, but the food and drinks have got it going on inside! First and foremost - order an Acapulco margarita. My, oh my is this an awesome margarita. It is hand made by the manager every day and is only served on the rocks. I love me some margaritas in the summer, and I have had them many places - but hands down, this is the best one I have ever ordered (even the ones in Acapulco, Mexico don't hold a candle!) Warning - all you need is ONE ;) The addition of grand marnier makes it extra smooth yet not too sweet. You're welcome... Now on to the food.The fajita taco salad is out of this world. I have never seen so much lean meat and chicken in a salad - they simply DO NOT SKIMP. Be sure you make it to the bottom though, the black beans are hiding down there. So good! Other favorites include the beef tacos (hubby's fave) and the chicken tortilla soup. You'll have enough to take some for lunch the next day. The fresh avocados are delish in the soup. My new go-to dish is a new menu item - spinach & chicken burrito. It's not on the low-calorie list, but definitely high in flavor. Alfredo, the general manager is great! Really cares about his guests. They now have a second location near Target in Florence - this location offers a huge outside patio.(Ask for Vanessa) Next time you're hankerin' for some Mexican, take a trip to Acapulco! read more
