This may be my new favorite Mexican restaurant! We had a wonderful experience here and I can't wait…read moreto return! The ambiance was colorful and festive as most Mexican restaurants are. The decor was pleasing to the eye and upbeat music played in the background. We were promptly seated upon entering and our complimentary chips and salsa were also brought out after we were seated. The salsa ingredients were fresh and bright and had a kick to it without being overwhelmingly spicy. I really enjoyed it! The chips were nice and crispy and we could tell that they had been made fresh. Our server and everyone we encountered were super friendly and full of smiles. Now on to the main course. I ordered the chicken quesadilla while my guy ordered the steak fajita. Our food was hot and fresh when it came to the table shortly after we ordered. Both of us agreed that everything was seasoned well, something that has been missing from some other restaurants. We had no complaints with our food and at the recommendation of our server, even ordered dessert. The bartender brought it over and joked with us a couple of times as he passed by our table. This was a great meal and experience. Give them a try if you're looking for authentic and delicious Mexican food with great service.

The tacos were not that good to me. They were not bad but for my taste, they are what I like. I had chicken tacos and beef tacos. My wife had steak fajitas. Those were pretty good. Overall, I won't return because it's not the right taste for me. Others may like it but for me, I've had much better.

The girl that was eventually my server was on her phone the entire time before coming to take my order. I ordered the mojarra frita dish. The fish was bland and flavorless. I didn't even finish half of it! It came with some side salad and I asked for fries too. Thank God I added fries since everything else was awful! The fries were good. The ambiance is your typical Mexican restaurant vibe. I will never return back here. First time & last time!!!!! Yuck & complete waste of my money and time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Fyi the first order of chips and salsa is complimentary. Not sure what the fee is after the first order.

Hands-Down the Best Mexican in Birmingham! After locals kept…read moresteering me toward disappointing spots, I finally discovered Acapulco on my own and I've been hooked ever since. It's the clear winner for overall Mexican food in the area. Their birria tacos are phenomenal, the drinks are delicious and refreshing, and the sauces actually have real flavor, none of that overly thick, bland stuff you get everywhere else. They nail the meat every time: perfectly cooked, tender, and seasoned so well you don't get any of that "gamey" or off taste some places have. It's consistently solid across the board. They also have kind workers and the ambiance overall is good. Spacious enough for some privacy although I don't like some of their seating chairs...the benches that are connected between you and someone else behind you. A few times I had customers behind me moving a whole lot and it wasn't very pleasant. Honorable mention for tacos specifically: Mezon food truck (another gem I had to find independently). Lesson learned the hard way, don't trust most Birmingham recommendations; they've let me down too many times. Acapulco is worth every visit.

We all ordered the same thing LOL the Pollo Loco bowl (I think?) which has rice, steak, and queso all thrown on a huge plate. The portion is ginormous and could easily serve 2 or even 3 people, it was $18 after tax which isn't too bad if you were to split it. All the dishes here are pretty pricey but portions are big.

The entrance host was actually great and the vibe in here is legit for a real Mexican vibe. My problem was unfortunately my server. Maybe it's her first day ever or some bad day for her. Also the chips were actually stale and as I ordered street tacos she just dropped off the meat tacos and zero other stuff like every street tacos at any place in the world. She never gave anything. I would recommend coming here for an end of work day with coworkers but never ever come here for a relaxing meal.

I ended taking the chicken filling of my hard taco and wrapping it in the enchilada tortilla. The soft serve had a good consistency but too strong. The guacamole dip was good.
