    Very disappointed! Seated late even though we had a reservation. Quality of food not the best and was cold. Empty trays of food that we were not able to try since they didn’t get refilled. Drink jugs empty and when I asked waitress about it, she said we can get soda. Kid choices also disappointing. Never again!

    I went for the Thanksgiving buffet. Adults were $39 and children were $13. The food was a mix of American and Mexican. Great quality and the staff were friendly and gave great service. Would recommend it for anyone.

    I enjoyed eating at Acapulco. My only complaint is that the salsa was a total disappointment! It was so watery that I couldn’t even scoop it up with a tortilla chip!!

    The food and service was wonderful as usual! Juan is the best server ever! He always makes sure we don’t run out of chips and salsa, and keeps the drink refills coming! He is very attentive and always makes sure we are happy! He is one of the reasons we have been dining at Acapulco for so many years! His service is top notch! We will definitely be back soon! Thanks!
