Acapulco Restaurant

Reviewed By etammps

The serves are great, considerate and polite. Even though on the cover of the menu it says “Authentic Mexican food”, it is more Tex-mex.Outside the restaurant, there is a sign written “don’t disturb my plants”. For a professional restaurant, this is not necessary to have ... it sounds rude... nobody goes to a restaurant to touch other’s outside plants. There are more important things to do than touch plant in restaurants. It could be more clean. The time spent by the owner to write signs to not touch his plants, could be better used to keep his restaurant cleaner.

Late Dinner. The Margaritas come in Large and Small. They never asked which we wanted. The small one is small and weak. The noise level is very high. Did not like the lights above the fans creating a strobe effect. Liked the Fajitas. The servings of rice and beans were small. The chicken chalupa had lots of chicken on it. The chicken enchilada was ok, chicken and cheese, no sauce. Tortillas were good.

A group of us met at Kiko's earlier this week and had a very good lunch. It is a large place, and the parking lot was crowded, but they were able to seat us immediately.The complimentary salsa had a nice kick to it, and the complimentary chips were very light.We ordered their Fried Mushrooms as an appetizer for the table, and trust me, this is not an appetizer you want to order for yourself! The serving is absolutely huge - more than the six of us could eat!!All but one in our group were from Texas, and everyone thought their meal was very good. I had their Three Beef Enchiladas and was impressed by the flavor as well as their meatiness. All in all, we had a very good lunch at Kiko's. Give them a try!!We're glad you enjoyed your afternoon out with us. It sounds like both the fried mushrooms and beef enchiladas were real hits! Thank you all for joining us for lunch -- we hope everyone meets up here again soon.All the best,Marcus, Owner

I wanted to say it was all very good b/c the food was still good. But when no one visits your table for over 10 minutes and we have to ask for help then no one brings us water until we ask and after 20 minutes in, we are a little upset. Refills and other requests were also slow or forgotten. The waitress was super nice, but that does not count for bad service. Food was luckily served correctly and hot but we were full from chips, salsa and margaritas after sitting there for over 45 minutes before our food came. I will be back, but will likely not go to the Corpus location when we are visiting my daughter at school. Oh and the restroom bathroom sinks were not working, we find out on our way out. Makes you feel good about servers washing their hands.

Want a fantastic breakfast taco (most) for under $2 that's fresh, flavorful, and filling---then here's your place! The restaurant, minutes from the Naval air base, not surprisingly was packed with locals and naval pilots on our visit. We're told that's the norm, and we can see why! One taco was filling, with two we're stuffed and happy! What a great find, not too far off the main highway.
