We were in Muncie for a conference at the University and I had heard lots of good things about Acapulco. We stopped in for lunch and they were relatively busy. I had the Carnitas tacos however I think I actually got steak. Served with rice and beans. This is a big dish. I had leftovers a day later. Their chips are warm and crispy and their salsa is very good. Our server was super friendly and surface was quick. The restaurant is in good condition and it's got a good vibe. read more

Acapulco Mexican Restaurant - Carnitas A la Mexicana - Mexican Near Me - Muncie, Indiana

Nice quick little trip had a few tacos couple of drinks and was out can't really give the best review this was a pitstop from a day of drinking just to fill he belly gonna have to go back and try it again read more

I went in after I got off work around 5pm. When I walked in the dining area was full..as I approached the counter to place my order the lady didn't know what I was talking about. I wanted to order the craizo cheese dip it took me 5 minutes just to place the order. After 25 minutes of waiting I had to stop the lady that waited on me asking for a refund...which then I was given cold food and a smile. This was my first time and I'll never go back again. read more

Very friendly service. Food was passable. There was a bay leaf in my chicken chimi that I had to awkwardly fish out of my mouth. Dining area is pretty small. But not bad. read more

Acapulco Mexican Restaurant - Mexican Near Me - Muncie, Indiana

Used to think the food here was all right and went often because my wife and I lived close by, but never went back after I heard the staff making insulting comments and assuming I couldn't understand because they said them in Spanish. read more

First time going to this restaurant. Food was great! Best veggie fajitas I've ever had. Would go back again.

Last minute decided to skip Puerta and try Acapulcos, as we've passed by so many times. This may be our new regular stop. Great Friendly service. Food was good. We all liked salsa better. Queso was the same, Hoosiers love it so obviously same familiar taste and must have on menu. Tried the Acapulco sampler and asked for a crunchy carne asada taco with guacamole and pico and they made it. Guacamole was good. Refried beans were good. Like most Mexican restaurants here, flavor was the same. Not spicy if you like it bland. I'm always looking for spicy and lots of flavor and have not found that anywhere yet. This sounds negative but it was good. Recommend you try it for a stop other than Puerta. read more

We love this place, such good food, quick service! We like this place best in muncie for Mexican food, (we love the carne asada tacos, Diet Coke, and their birria quesadillas are delicious) read more

Street tacos found here! We ordered the 12 pack of street tacos and were not disappointed. The 12 pack comes with limes, two specialty sauces, whole jalapeños and chicken/pork/chorizo tacos. The pork was moist and flavorful. The chicken also moist and carried a little bit more southwest flavor. The chorizo lacked taste and zip. The tortillas were fresh, moist and perfect for the job. I was not as excited about the chips and salsa. Both were fresh and did the pre-taco feast job. The chips were an odd orangish color and a little stiff & slightly greasy. The salsa had a bit of thickness but not much defining taste. The facility is dated but clean. The staff was all very friendly, attentive and professional. If you want street tacos...come here! read more

The restaurant is small, clean and when full it's a little claustrophobic because people are very close together. Not really too bad. Food was OK. Was transfered here from CA, the Mexican food here is way too bland, almost all restaurants here serve a very liquid cheese inside and over the food, probably White Velveeta (blah!) The waiter was extremelly nice. read more

Very exquisite quesadillas and service, our waiter was kind in showing veggie selections and the menu is very well presented. While there was not a vegetarian section on the menu the kind employees helped me to identify the options throughout the menu. I ended up getting the vegetarian burrito. This burrio was delicious. Fantastic burst of flavor. read more

Acapulco Mexican Restaurant - Veggie burrito - Mexican Near Me - Muncie, Indiana

very frustrating experience tonight, my boyfriend and I ordered two burritos and got home to only one, it's our favorite Mexican spot in town and we come often. we've never had a problem before so we didn't even think to check the bag before we left. I called to get the second one fixed and was told "I packed the back and put two plates in there" the one burrito and a side of beans were in there. they said fine we will remake come and get it. then we get there to pick it up and the owner has a camera fotage up and shows two plates in the bag... yes one burrito and one rice and then proceeded to semi argue with my boyfriend about it. very frustrating to spend 24$ on two burritos and a 6$ tip for them to not just fix the mistake, it would not have been a big deal however them arguing about it was annoying as hell. not sure if we will return. best food frustrating service tonight. read more

Acapulco Mexican Restaurant - Two plates, one burrito one bean, you can see the damn cheese spilling out - Mexican Near Me - Muncie, Indiana

Service was good. Atmosphere was good as well! I had the chicken fajitas and the chicken was soooo dry. I also had the steak street tacos and the steak was super dry. It wasn't bad but I feel like the meat is already cooked they just reheat it. read more

My favorite local Mexican restaurant! Food is so good. Service is great! Acapulco has classic favorites and unique menu items too. Great place! read more

Acapulco Mexican Restaurant - Mexican Near Me - Muncie, Indiana

This is our second visit. The first was during the pandemic and they actually had the guts to open a new restaurant during that time period I had the California Burrito. It was huge and I could not eat it all. Presentation was not very appealing though. Basically it was a huge folded tortilla on a plate. Nothing else to make it look "pretty". Nothing on top. No refried beans No little pile of lettuce. Taste was good. I ordered mine without the chorizo and they handled the special order well. Salsa was good. Chips crisp. Wife got the street tacos. She said they were good. Lot of diners spoke Spanish as did the wait staff. Our waitress was Kayleigh and this was her second week. You could tell she was experienced and she told us her Mom owned a restaurant in Ossian, Indiana. She had worked since about age ten. It was pretty busy. They have outdoor dining and there were two women seated outside. Temperature outdoors was 63 and breezy. Brave souls! read more

Best part of this restaurant is EVERYTHING! Service staff is great, food is most authentic Mexican food anywhere in Delaware County! Street tacos with lengua are amazing. The house guacamole is a must. read more

Order takeout often but today was terrible. Ordered 3 chicken tacos and there was nothing but peppers and lettuce. Almost no chicken and cheese. Very disappointed since we usually get great food from Acapulco. Do better! read more

Great Service! Food was delicious! I ordered the bean dip and a quesadilla. Perfect space to mix work and lunch.

So good. Will be my family's go to Mexican joint to go to. Great service!!! Strongly recommend this place. read more

Finally...! Discovered great Mexican food in Muncie. Salsa could use more cilantro. House margaritas are a treat and a bargain. I've had fajitas. A beginning. Next had the Chely Special to try the verde sauce. Excellent green sauce! Spouse was very pleased with the Quesaburria. read more

I am from Texas and know what good Mexican food is and this place is just awful! The enchiladas were bland, the beans and rice were terrible. Stay away from this place. Taco Bell is better. read more

Wow. I wasn't hopeful about Mexican food in Indiana, especially because I just moved here from Southern California. But after seeing a previous yelpers review and seeing a picture of the tacos, I decided to give it a shot. They are so good!!! Al pastor, chicken with chorizo, haven't tried the others I ordered yet because I'm full but they look great!! Definitely going to be a regular at this place!!!! So relieved. read more

Food was mediocre. Our waitress never really checked on us. We were told by others it was a good place to eat but I don't think we'll go back. For the price, we weren't impressed with the flavor of the meat. read more

A great option for people who want that authentic Mexican taste. I'd definitely recommend you choose Acapulco over Chavas or Puerta Vallarta. Quality is not comparable, and they have horchata!!! read more

The food is delicious. Always hot & fresh. I have tried most of the items on the menu. Shredded Chicken tacos today were tasty. It came with rice and some of the best beans around. I feel the coffee is the top cup in Muncie, including all of the expensive chains. The owners are always friendly & provide great customer service. The atmosphere is festive, with occasional singing in the kitchen. read more

I am a Mexican food SNOB because I spent 20 years of my life in the Central Valley of California. Since moving to the Midwest I've been so sad I haven't been able to find authentic tacos that remind me of home, at least until I went to Acapulco! These tacos and other authentic foods are on par with my favorite foods from home! The tacos are incredible and everything is delicious. 10\10 will be funding this small business during and after quarantine!! read more

Acapulco Mexican Restaurant - "Dirty Dozen" tacos - Mexican Near Me - Muncie, Indiana

I've always gone to Puertas to get my Mexican food fix but decided to try this place out since I've driven by so many times. It's unfortunate that my first experience was during COVID but honestly if the take out is good, you know it's going to be excellent when you get the full experience of dining in. I got the fajitas to keep it simple and can honestly say it's the best in Muncie. Absolutely delicious. Acapulco will definitely be the move from now on! read more

Absolutely love this place, hands down the best Mexican restaurant in Muncie! I was hesitant to try this place because my fiancé and I have been loyal to Puerta ever since we moved to Muncie. Acapulco did not let me down, and in my opinion is better than Puerta. The cuisine is very similar, but what won me over is that Acapulco serves delicious authentic Mexican tacos, which are always hard to find, as well as their salsa. The salsa is tomato-y but has a big cilantro flavor (which I love), and always tastes fresh. I love that they also have a drive thru for to go orders, which has made picking up food during the pandemic so much easier. I highly recommend trying to place out! I can't wait for my next order. read more

The only place you can get reliable takeout nowadays! Love love love to hear how happy the kitchen is when you dine in also. There is love and joy in the food here. Everything I've gotten here has been fabulous but I highly recommend the Taquitos. read more

As some previous people mentioned I was totally shocked to see such high quality, delicious, flavorful Mexican food in the Midwest. We came here for an early dinner. They gave some salsa and chips to start off the meal. We ordered the queso fundito which was made of cheese and chorizo---very flavorful. I ordered the los 4 amigos which was 4 tacos (steak, al pastor (pork), pollo con charizo and carnitas) on double wrapped corn tortillas. It was fantastic. It was nice being able to taste all the different flavors. My husband got the Quesadilla Acapulco which was amazing as well. Highly recommend everything we ordered and highly recommend coming here if you're in the mood for Authentic Mexican food. The service was also great and the food came our super fast! read more

This is a nope for me. First time in Muncie, the 5-star reviews led us here for lunch. Everyone really enjoyed the chips and salsa, but all of the entrees had what we could only decribe as a tomato paste, more like spaghetti sauce, than a spicy taco sauce. The meat in the tacos was bland and completely tasteless. Staff was friendly, service was good, just didnt care for any of the 4 dishes tried at lunch. Will likely be making more trips up this way in the coming years, will be taking a pass on this place. read more

Very good food. Arroz con pollo is great and the staff was super nice. There is a great patio to eat on. Inside eating is available. Coke products are available and the Mexican sodas. No margaritas or alcohol is served here. read more

Acapulco Mexican Restaurant - a plate of food - Mexican Near Me - Muncie, Indiana

This is a family friendly restaurant. They have a good selection of authentic food and very reasonable prices.

Hands down the best Mexican food in Muncie. The salsa always tastes fresh, everything is always seasoned well. Have yet to get a bad dish from here whether it be take out or dine in. It's always a plus when take out tastes just as good as dine in, and that's rare to find. read more

This place was amazing I initially came in here just to grab a little small bite after a meeting I had in town and ended up ordering about 12 tacos! They have some of the best tacos I have ever tried! Now with that being said, you should steer clear from the chicken ones because they put the chicken and ground beef on the same taco! But we need to talk about their sauces! They make their own! fresh jalapeño Rojas salsa, fresh tomatillo Verde with habanero! Also fresh guacamole! Immediately I fell in love with all of these because I love spicy salsa that has a flavor and not just all spicy! carnitas what my fave! If you go here! You need to check this place out! The one thing I would like to see and I even told the owner who was there was that they should have a bar! He explained that there was a lot more licensing that goes with that! read more

This place has very good street tacos. Ask for the hot sauce they don't normally serve if you like hot. I will definitely be back. I also had a good tostada. read more
