We had our sons communion lunch at this location it is our second event here. Everyone from the staff from the manager Juanita who helped me organize that everything was set up right that we had everything we needed for our event to turn out well she was extremely helpful and so sweet to Elvis our server for our event he was always on top of everything making sure everyone of our guests were well taken care of they were all amazing!! It made it really easy for me and my husband to be able to enjoy being part of the lunch without the hassle of having to take care of anything. I’m am so glad we chose to have it here!

Really wonderful. Theirs had always been the best salsa ever, and they're seafood enchiladas are still great. Also fantastic margaritas. Acapulco is my #1 or #2 place to visit whenever I return to LA. Acapulco has always allowed any combination - on a recent visit I got a shredded beef enchilada and a Baja fish taco.. no questions asked, they just did it.

We were in Glendale for work, but I scoped out this place before I even got on the plane and was so excited to try the food after seeing the menu and reviews. We throughly enjoyed our drinks and the street taco bar. I’m from the Midwest originally and live on the East Coast now, I’ve never enjoyed Mexican food this much before. Great job!!

As first time customers, we were very much satisfied by the food and customer service. Our senor server was very warm and attentive to our requests. He served us still warm nacho chips with spicy salsa. They have big portion sizes. The other table must have ordered guacamole because I saw a server preparing it right in front of the guests. It looked delicious and fresh! They also have something special for birthday celebrants! Will definitely go back when I visit LA again!

This restaurant is one of the best authentic Mexican restaurants that you can find in the city of Glendale. The food, the people who work there and the atmosphere makes this restaurant amazing. Happy hour is always the best time with friends and colleagues. I hope this restaurant never goes out business and stays in business forever. We cannot afford to lose this location, we cannot afford to lose the amazing people who work there, we cannot afford to lose the delicious food that is made fresh everyday. We already lost The Original Pantry restaurant... this can’t happened here... Please support this business and enjoy all of this delicious food and amazing drinks with your friends and family. 5 stars everyday!

I love the food, the drinks, and the vibe. Mango margaritas, 10.99 fajitas special, and great service... you can't go wrong. I used to come for their brunch, and now I come for the fajitas and the chips and salsa. Just writing this review made me want to go back.
