Stop by on the way to a project. I was in the mood for street tacos but they were kind of pricey so I figured they'd be large. I ordered three one asada one Carnitas and one pastor. They were good size the asada had less meat than the other two but still was okay and acceptable. The food had good flavor but nothing like a wow factor. The waitresses were very nice smiled and we're very tentative. They close about 3:00 and sounds more like a breakfast lunch place. I'll have to try the breakfast tacos cuz I hear they are good. A three for now but will review this again and revise my reviews and start ratings if needed. There's so many more to try

Carnitas plate

We were looking for a place to grab a quick lunch between appointments. The location is small, clean, and the staff is friendly. We were able to be seated immediately. The chips that came out while we were waiting for our order were thick and crispy. The salsa was tasty but not spicy. We ordered the steak with nopales in tomatillo salsa as well as the carnitas plate. Both came with homemade corn or flour tortillas. We ordered corn with both plates. The steak and nopales were DELICIOUS. The tomatillo sauce was a nice addition with a slick spice to it. The carnitas were a little dry but adding salsa helped. Overall the flavor of the food was better than we expected, would have liked to for the salsas to have been a little thicker, however they were still tasty.

The was just ok for me . I had the ranchero plate & the steak was a bit dry & over cooked . The tortillas were homemade which I liked . It wasn't very crowded & it took exactly 30 minutes to get our food . Nobody came to check on us or fill our empty water glasses until we were already finished eating . The waitress looks at us & asks us if we needed anything & I raised my empty glass & politely said more ice water please . She turned around & started walking away & my husband said can I please have more ice water . She said sure & took his glass & came back with his ice water . I thought that was very very RUDE & unprofessional on her part . Because of this I only left 2 stars .

Street tacos

I had the street tacos and they were phenomenal! The service was excellent as well. Will definitely be back!

I'm so disappointed in this place. We moved here 3 years ago and it has taken us a long time to finally find a good Mexican restaurant in this area. The tacos were delicious and just when we thought we finally found a place I found a bunch of pieces of hair in my barbacoa taco today. It looked like someone had cut some of their hair and put in the taco. It was so disgusting and I immediately lost my appetite and threw the taco away along with the other taco I had gotten. Extremely disappointed that this happened.

Enchiladas Verde Lunch Plate

Small little restaurant for me means that more care and attention will be placed when the staff is preparing your meal. I just moved to the Converse are and have been craving a nice authentic Mexican meal after Mikes tacos major disappointment. I was super skeptical in coming here but so glad that I did!! The taco al pastor was AMAZING!!! the flavors of the meat were sooo good and the tortilla was also delicious! Their red salsa had a great kick to it! The enchiladas plate was also amazingly delicious! Will be coming back for more!

Great tacos and service! The asada was so yummy and the taco size was not too big or too small.read more

Outstanding Hidden Gem…read more Don't let its location fool you--Acapulco Mexican Restaurant, tucked inside a small shopping center next to a gas station, is an absolute treasure. From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with a warm "hello" and a genuine smile. That kind of hospitality makes a difference, and it immediately sets the tone for a great dining experience. This is a walk-up, order-at-the-counter type of place, with self-seating options. You can either sit at a table or at the side bar overlooking the kitchen--both are great choices, depending on your mood. I personally love that setup because it adds to the charm and casual, inviting atmosphere. Now, let's get to the food--because WOW. I ordered the bacon and egg mix plate, which came with beans and potatoes, and I had the option of corn or flour tortillas. I went with corn (my favorite), and they were soft, warm, and perfect. My husband got a carne guisada taco and a chorizo, potato, and egg taco on flour tortillas. Every bite was packed with flavor, and you could taste the authenticity and freshness in every dish. Our drinks came out quickly, followed by our food, which was served hot and fresh. The meal also came with green and red salsa--both were fantastic, but the red salsa was my favorite with its bold, flavorful kick. And now, let's talk about price--because this might be the best part. $13.50 for everything! That's almost unheard of for food this good, this fresh, and this filling. Between the friendly service, delicious food, and unbeatable prices, Acapulco Mexican Restaurant is a hidden gem that deserves way more attention. We will absolutely be back, and if you're looking for a fantastic, affordable Mexican meal, I highly recommend you give this place a try!

I found out about Sodamigo when I was driving around town and saw a now defunct Fiiz soda shop. I…read morelooked online to see if they had any other locations, because I really like them, and I have not been to one since I lived in Vegas. I saw that they previously had 2 locations, one of which Sodamigo took over at this location in Converse, which is closer to where I live, in Windcrest. Upon entering, we were greeted by a friendly gentleman, who may have been the owner. He was very polite and helpful. He explained the menu and talked about some of the food items and how the jalapeño popcorn was made, which they happened to be making, and it smelled very good. We ordered a chicken quesadilla, the Fuego, which happened to be a special and also a La Flor-R-R. The drinks were both very tasty. The chicken quesadilla was really good! It had a nice little cheese skirt on the outside. It is pretty spacious inside. There is a pretty cool mural on the wall. I think it might be from when Fiiz occupied the space, since it is done in their colors. Overall, it is your basic soda shop. It reminds me of the ones that I would frequent in Southwestern Utah, where the whole dirty soda trend started around 2010, by Swig. I would probably stop by, if in the area of either Sodamigo locations. Give them a try!

Sodamigo is so close to our house in converse. We stopped in and met Sam . She's the sweet young…read morelady behind the counter with the most infectious smile. So we ordered a Dr Pepper that was custom-made with cherry and grape and we ordered a San Antonio Town Dr Pepper, which has cheesecake, strawberry purée, and cream in it I have to till you this was the best soda I have ever had. I am sold on this place !! There's nothing better than having an excellent soda shop near the house. They also sell kettle corn,buttery popcorn, jalapeño popcorn, nachos, tortillas, and sausage wraps, just the name a few things , you also get added mixes of energy shots, immunity boost, fresh limes, and popping Boba. Sodamigo sells lemonades with different flavors that include watermelon, cherry, kiwi, red raspberry, lavender, Wildberry, passionfruit, pomegranate, and peach purée. The fizzy waters that they sell, include flavors, like lavender, blueberry, vanilla, pineapple, coconut, mango purée, Mojito mint, and watermelon. You can add to any base the donkey lady which is vanilla times two creams or you can add cocoa Loco, which is vanilla, coconut, and cream. They also sell 10 pound bags of ice and sell their own personal tumblers. The quesadillas that they sell comes with either chicken, pulled pork or beef brisket. They sell cheese nachos, but you can add chicken, pulled pork, or beef brisket for an added fee. The drink sizes come in in Texas 44 ounce , a large 32 ounce, a medium 24 ounce and a 16 ounce Chico. Each added flavor runs about $.55 and each added cream or purée is $.80. The soda options are Dr Pepper, big red, Sprite, Mountain Dew, root beer, Coke, Pepsi, orange soda, and Ginger ale . They also offer sugar-free options and there's many many flavors that are sugar-free and you could also make your drink twisted for an extra $1.50 that means that your drink will become a slushy . The inside seating is very spacious and they have many board games that you can sit down and play with your family. If you're in the area I definitely suggest stopping by and helping out this small business because it's a pretty awesome place and I'm very happy with our drinks . Will definitely be coming back Thank you Sam for the big smile and the warm welcome.
