The food is spectacular. The service out of this world. Everything we ate was fresh and delicious. I would highly recommend to my friends, family and my enemies.Elaine was delightful.

Had a great time here with my family. Server was incredibly friendly and prompt with our orders. Food was delicious as well.

Great atmosphere, we love the Vulcan and be sure you try a premium margarita at happy hour. The Perfect is our favorite. The fried ice cream is the stuff dreams are made of!

Our entire family has always loved coming to Acapulco's. It was alway our local family night out.Embarrassed to say it has been awhile.We most definitely be incorporating weekly family night.My husband, mother in-law and I were truly impressed.As a Manger team lead myself I know the stress.But the smiles and genuine want to please is what really stood out far above anything else.The old bartender Elaine is back as a manager. After all these years. She remembered us.We cannot wait to see Junior in the future. Down to earth. And has really done wonders.Just a awesome person all together.Or server was Carlos we also saw Monica and Carmen.A mini reunion. Though they were busy.I know as a Manger myself they are doing something right. Especially in an industry where there is so much turn over.This is my first time posting a review. So I will also point out the food was delicious.We ordered some new dishes and old ones.No one has ever been able to make a margarita like Acapulco's and Michealadas were amazing..Thank you ALL for creating such a wonder birthday experience.Smiles from the second we arrive to the moment we left.Keep up the good work guys.People could really learn from this.Much love!!

Still very good drinks. However, the food is not up to what it used to be. Sort of mediocre, hence the 3 stars. I grew up in San Diego and know what good Mexican food is. In particular, they used to have delicious tortillas that appeared to be fresh made, or at least locally made. Ate there tonight and the tortillas looked and tasted like mass produced store bought tripe.

Sadly, this is the worst Mexican we have had - ever. Margaritas were rough- the worst tequila and mix. Took 2 drinks of it and quit. Food is overpriced for quantity. 1 order was wrong and they tell us after the order came out that they were out of corn tortillas but substituted flour without asking and / or offering a different meal option. My steak tacos were overcooked, tortilla was part rubber, part stale. Salsa was watery and over salted. I'd give taco ? 5 stars compared to here. Nope. Just nope.

We are still in our first year in Parrish, but I think we’ve found our favorite Mexican restaurant. Good food and efficient friendly service. Can’t wait to return.

This is by far the best Mexican restaurant I’ve been in . We have eaten in Sarasota,Palmetto and Bradenton and none even compare to the flavors or the service here. We had Anna and you should ask for her. EXCELLENT. We will be coming back and bringing friends. Thank you for such great food and service

Love this place! Bistec Ranchera is my favorite. The red salsa is too mild for me. If you want spicy, ask for the green salsa...it has a kick!

Had a very enjoyable late lunch with my mom this afternoon. Our waitress was attentive and efficient. House margs ($4) tasted great! We each had a platter. Everything was fresh and delicious. They have really great weekly specials and happy hour. We will definitely be back.
