Reviews for Acapulco Mexican Restaurant in Stillwater, MN

First off, the building / setup is good and the service was good too. The food on the other hand was not. I ordered enchiladas... verdes. What I expected was an enchilada plate with a green tomatillo / cilantro sauce, what I got looked like a salad of somesort with a red sauce tasting much like buffalo wing sauce. I would have to say it wasn't terrible, but not really good either. The water they service is TERRIBLE and don't order the lemonade as it's clearly made with the water! Read more

Amazing food and experience. I got the Acapulco burrito and boy oh boy was it amazed. It was gigantic and full of flavor. Isaac... was our server and his customer service was superb. Would definitely recommend seeing Isaac when you go here. Also ordered thehard shell tacos and they amazed me as well. I gotta say food coma was achieved Read more

Good food. Descent prices. Our waitress was nowhere to be seen most of the time. She checked on our table maybe 3 times from... start to finish. The food runner was more helpful. Read more

Could use a better beer tap list. Food is pretty standard Mexican fare. Tres amigos margarita was good. Salsa needs significant... improvement. Chips are reasonably decent. Lots of TVs to watch sports games. Service was relatively mediocre. Read more

My whole family's favorite place. When I walk in, the smell of fresh corn chips fills the air. I'm greeted at my table by... genuinely friendly staff who all seem to be happy and enjoying each other. Very family feeling. First bites are the housemade chips I've been smelling and a salsa so fresh you know it's made daily. Chips and salsa anywhere else I'm not eveninterested in. But at Acapulcos, the chips and salsa sets the stage in your mind that you're at a place that really goes theextra mile on quality, flavor, and freshness, even in the little things. Some of my favorite things on the menu are the seafoodchimichanga that's smothered in a white cheese sauce, the al pastor taco that has pork and grilled pineapple, or the mixedfajitas with steak, chicken, and shrimp. I've eaten there countless times and have never received a meal that was less thanperfect. In fact, we love Acapulcos so much, that we had them cater my brothers wedding a few months back. We had a high endwedding at a beautiful golf course, and a taco bar may seem odd to some people. But we received so many compliments on thefood. Everyone was crazy about it. Acapulcos set everything up on site and it looked really impressive. They provided theheated pans for all the food, service ware, even plates and napkins. The food was flawless and very plentiful for the number ofguests we ordered for. Not to mention very reasonably priced. So many of the guests came to ask us where the food was from,and immediately put Acapulcos in their phones and planned to go there. Everyone loved it. At the end of the day, Acapulcos isproviding exactly what everyone wants from any restaurant. High quality, delicious food served fast by genuinely friendlyservice. I highly recommend it to anyone.

Food was delicious and came out very quickly! I had the taco salad and chips w cheese dip. Cheese dip is a must try! We stopped... in for my guy's b-day we didn't mention it to the servers it was his bday. The manager asked if we wanted to try dessert but wesaid we were so full but had never tried deep fried Ice cream and was up in the air if he we could eat anymore. She put it onthe house. Deep fried Ice cream was so good! Staff was amazing! We'll be back! Read more

We've never had a bad meal or poor service at any Acapulco Restaurant. We really love their chips and salsa. This was our... second trip to this restaurant location And during the pandemic in February 2021. Our service was excellent and we later foundout when we left the waitress was the restaurant manager Olivia. Oliva checked on us several times and made sure our sodasnever went empty. They were busy and she made sure all the tables were getting serviced multiple times. We ordered the Steakand Chicken Fajitas which were so good and a lot of food on three plates. Read more

It was not super busy when we arrived but it seemed to take longer than it should to get our food. BUT... when we got our food... it was all great. We had 12 in our group and almost everything was perfect. We had one thing that was not satisfactory and themanager fixed it immediately. The food and service was excellent. Definitely coming back.
