Our family LOVES Acapulco Mexican Grill. We've visited about once a week for the past year and always ask to be seated with our favorite waiter, Raul. The service is quick and friendly, and the food is always fresh and consistently great. We are creatures of habit so Raul has our order memorized - I love the spicy margs, and fajitas are the best I've had. The restaurant feels spacious and tastefully decorated - with beautiful lighting and artwork, and the music is always a vibe. Our favorite Mexican restaurant. Period. Thank you for always providing a warm, welcoming and delicious experience! . read more

I saw some good Yelp reviews of this spot, so I suggested it for dinner one evening with my aunt and uncle. The space is really nicely decorated and it feels fancy. I ordered a paloma and I appreciated how strong it was! They also have a lot of specialty drinks and margaritas. We got chips and salsa delivered to the table as soon as we sat down which is always appreciated. The drink menu didn't list any prices, but my paloma was $12. The menu is pretty large and I was having a tough time deciding what to order. They have all your standards- tacos, burritos, enchiladas, etc. but also some Mexican specialties that I don't see as often, like tilapia plancha. I decided on the hot & spicy burrito, with chicken, beef, beans, and rice, topped with salsa ranchera and beef tips. Nate got a chimichanga. Our food didn't take too long to come out and everything was hot and fresh. The burrito was smaller than I was expecting based on its price ($16.49), but it was delicious and I ate the whole thing. I will definitely be back to try more menu items, and maybe even for their lunch menu. read more

1st time here, fast friendly service, Acapulco Burrito and Fish Taco were amazing! Would definitely eat here again!

We came for the soft web margarita! It was pretty good. It had a nice dole whip vibe. But I waited for it and it came out the machine super liquidy unlike the rest of my party which sucked. chips and salsa were good and the loaded fries came piled high with skirt steak. We sat at the bar and the staff was very kind and came around with Paloma and tequila samples. We will definitely be back to try more menu items. read more

Acapulco Mexican Grill - Cantarito - Mexican Near Me - Grand Rapids, Michigan

We noticed a "newer" Mexican restaurant up by Knapp's Corner. We went there for lunch today and know we've found another restaurant we have to come back to. First, the restaurant is very nicely decorated and the booths and tables are nicely spaced so there is no feel of crowding. Our chips and salsa came quickly and we began to study the menu. The salsa was quite good with the chips rather ordinary. In as much as we just came for lunch, we ordered off the lunch menu but wanted to see so of the dishes we might consider wen we eat later in the day. A really excellent menu. My wife ordered "Lunch Acapulco" which was a tortilla filled with steak, cheese and onions. I ordered chicken fajitas. Both meals were excellent. Service was attentive as well. Looks like Acapulco Mexican Grill will be on our regular rotation. read more

This place was was ok. The food overall was decent. Our server was friendly but we never got refills by them even though our glasses were empty for a while. Another server even came over and gave us a refill. But then we did not get another refill. The chips and salsa were good. I had the chicken pollo which was decent. My husband had a burrito which as ok as well. Not bad overall. read more

My dad comes to Acapulco frequently and had us try - honestly it s a great restaurant. Tried one of the chicken dishes and really enjoyed it! Love that it's next to Barnes and nobles :) read more

Acapulco Mexican Grill - Fajitas de pollo - Mexican Near Me - Grand Rapids, Michigan

Are here on Monday around 3 pm, staff were nice, super quick on refills, could be because I was one of 5 people in the restaurant. Inside area was nice, TVs with sports and TVs with movies near the bar. Seating was good. For prices, I feel like the tacos were on the more expensive side, but that's what you get with the type of sit down restaurant. I got the Enchilada Super Rancheras, and when it came I was expecting 5 enchiladas but it was 3 with rice and beans so kinda misled by the wording, and it was good for the price. Good Mexican sit down restaurant in the east Beltline area read more

We were hesitant to try this when it first opened but we've been back at least 4 times now because it's SO good! Service is always so quick, waiters are very nice, and the food and drinks are delicious. A little bit pricey but similar to other Mexican restaurants like this so can't complain. read more

Our server Juan was very attentive and welcoming . He had an extensive understanding of all the menu options and drink options . I went for DosEquis amber and my wife adventured to the passion fruit martini . She was thrilled with the drink and its presentation. Chips no salsa were ample and they had guacamole and other dips to order if you choose . I think the queso chorizo will be on our agenda next time . So many burrito choices that are unique so I opted for the burrito choriz. It was stuffed with steak and chicken topped with chorizo and grilled shrimp along with grilled pineapple and queso . Yum I was thrilled with it and the beans come with a chorizo topping. My wife went with enchiladas and she raved about them . A nice touch was the rice which was topped with a stuffed banana pepper . Definitely the best Mexican food we'd had in a long while . The restaurant is clean and well decorated with a great drink selection as well as the extensive menu . Again I have to mention Juan because he was fantastic and added to a nice Monday night dining experience. read more

Food was amazing! Hostesses super nice! I went to dinner with my family yesterday (9/17/26) and our server luis was super nice at the beginning. During our time there he began yelling at two young hostesses. Very unprofessional... I will not be going back if this is how staff treats each other. read more

Good food. Rice, carne asada tacos, and fresh guacamole, was absolutely delicious! Best carne asada tacos I have had since I moved here 2 years ago. Very nice restaurant! Great service! I'll be back! read more

Beautiful atmosphere. Service was excellent. Strongly recommend the cantarito cocktail. Better than a margarita and all fresh! Ask for the tomatillo salsa if you like a little more heat. My daughter says this is her happy place! read more

I was ordering my food and the waitress said to me and my mom "3 meals for 2 people?" and which my mom replied saying "yup" and then as he was bringing our food he said nothing to any of my moms 'thank you' and then came back later after we got our food and gave my mom and I a condescending smile and then said "how's ur meal?" and then that's when he decided to say a singular meal not "3 meals" read more

They don't have prices on their drink menu. They say that the prices changes due to demand. $11 for a 6-8oz spicy margarita??? Wow The double neet was actually a single Ordered steak fajitas. Good portion but no seasoning whatsoever. One time Tony read more

They just opened yesterday! The food was great tasting and large portions for fair prices. The bar was just getting stocked up, but it was full of bourbon, tequila's and wine already. The service was great too. I highly recommend this place. read more

Wife and I feel like regulars after only visiting for three meals. These guys work their ass off and still provide conversation and banter. The food is great and I dare you to find better drinks on this side of town. Wide spread of tequila AND! bourbon. Hard to find a seek on The Weeknd's but worth the wait. read more

It was lunch, so we did not get any alcoholic drinks, but they have a full menu. I got the Acapulco burrito lunch special and my husband got the lunch burrito bowl. Both were very flavorful.

I really enjoyed the tomato salsa I was greeted by as I sat down. The sause itself was very good. However I got sick from it. I believe the wooden bowl that it was served in was not clean. The steak and chicken burrito I ordered was ok. The food was not hot. I'm not sure I'll go there again. read more

Went on a Sunday afternoon and it was slow. Service was nice, interior is a vibe, and food was tasty!

Enthusiastic service; friendly and attentive. The chips were unsalted and sauce thin, our meals were of medium proportions but very bland. New building, they have an exposed ceiling that has sound dampening sprayed on so noise was tolerable. read more

Who in the world is recommending this place? Very disappointing and underwhelming experience. The food was maybe average microwaved and very overpriced for the portion size. Got 3 tacos with barely enough sauce for 2. Taco salad was a joke and about half the size of a normal salad for $15! The waiter threw the plates at us about 3 minutes after we ordered. Never going back. read more

My wife and I were blown away by this place tonight. Margaritas-- on point! Guac and chips -- outstanding! The shrimp wrapped in bacon were delicious! And the Birria tacos were the best I've ever had. We'll definitely be back. read more

I give it only 3 stars now but since it's new it might improve. The ambiance is pretty good but the high ceilings and hard surfaces make for fairly loud background noise. The chips and salsa were good but the sauce in both the burrito and enchiladas tasted like spaghetti -o's to us. The electronic payment device suggests a tip choice starting at 18% and up though manual amt is an option. I'll give it 6 months and try again. read more
