    I've passed by here a million times over the years (I grocery shop at Mediterranean 2 doors down) and never thought to try it out. But I realized last week, that of all the Mexican restaurants in that area, that one has a constant draw of Latino folks, so you know the deal then. My wife wanted to try Sabor Latino up the way by Office Depot but I've passed through there a bunch of times too and I ain't never seen anybody going or coming out of there. The same for that big Mexican restaurant at the end of the lot, so Acapulco was the deal. Rolling up on it and going through the door, I smelled the grilled seafoods, cilantro, steaks, beans. I knew it was right. Staff was attentive and asked for drink orders. I ended up with Camarones Acapulco (stewed shrimp and veggies over mexican rice) and a Modelo Negra. The shrimp was cooked just right and the seasoning was on point with the bell peppers, onions and the tomato based rice. My lady's grilled shrimp fajita was cooked right but no seasoning whatsoever. When the server came and asked how it was, I told her about my lady's bland plate but she had nothing to say...no offer to have the cook hook it up. Besides that, everything was proper. Great place to watch some sports too.

    My daughter took me to this place and promised I would not be disappointed...I wasn't! Meatless dishes and they were totally delicious. The portions were more than enough and the prices were reasonable; meal for two under $25 and that included drinks. I would definitely go back!

    The pollo asado was great. The chicken breast and thigh were tender, and the adobo seasoning was very savory. The dish came with rice, beans, and tortillas (and chips and salsa). Great portions too. This was exactly what I was hoping to get - something that was a little more traditional and authentic than Americanized Mexican food (which I like too, but which you can get anywhere). The price of takeout, $15.95, was just a little bit more than what I would consider superb value, but the quality of the chicken was undeniable.
