Acapulco is a family-owned and operated Mexican Restaurant & Bar serving customers homemade recipes. They opened 5 years ago in 2014 in the Borough of Raritan, New Jersey with one goal in mind; to serve Authentic-Mexican Food that cannot be found anywhere near the area. Two years later, Acapulco realized they needed to keep up with demand and so they expand and bought out the restaurant next door. You can visit Acapulco at 124 or 122 Thompson Street.
Unpretentious tavern offering Mexican standards such as enchiladas & tacos, plus happy hours.

Just moved in the area and was excited to see authentic Mexican restaurant. Don’t really care how good the food is here but you don’t treat your customers with a 18% surcharge and then expect tip….. I sat right down ready to order and on the bottom of the menu it said 18% surcharge… I understand nasty people who don’t tip but this is not a good look for people who want to be loyal customers

Excellent authentic Mexican Cuisine. Loved my Fajitas and the wife loved her Enchiladas. Salsa was good. Chips so so. Rice and beans very good. Beer was warm, bummer. Reasonably priced. Disappointed that we had to pay extra for the chips and salsa.

Your customer service today 15th February 2026 was very poor!! I have stopped buying from you. The Elotes was only one instead of two that I normally purchase at the same $4.95. When I called to enquire about this the lady was very rude and kept hanging on me.

First time stopping in for lunch & we absolutely LOVED this cute little Mexican spot! The staff is attentive, place is clean and it definitely gives a Mexican vibe! They start you off with some homemade tortilla chips & 2 dips, my husband and I loved them! I had an Horchata & it was quite tasty. We enjoyed our entrees, the service… we will definitely be returning. It was easy to find parking, we were sat within a minute or two of entering the establishment. We have no complaints. I took a couple of photos, loved the decor and it just made me smile to look around & see their Mexican decor. The portions are a nice filling size! Felt the need to mention that.

Overall a good experience. Great staff, delicious food. Nothing really stuck out to me regarding the Mexican food- the pastor tacos were juicy and seasoned well but just marinated cubes(not the style where they carve it off the roaster) and they don’t serve complimentary chips with salsa (other places do. I thought they did years ago)
Solid seafood caldo as well- $23 and very filling. My mom was delighted to see the imitation crab meat (an Asian staple) in her soup, along with real clams, fish, etc

Generally speaking, this is definitely an authentic Mexican cuisine restaurant, although I’ve realized over the years I’ve been going; there are a few things on the menu not worth paying attention to due to their own lack of resources for whatever reason. One thing particularly is the “steak fajitas” for some reason they used ground beef??? But the chicken fajitas are to die for. Honestly, anything that is cooked with chicken seems to be great in this restaurant. My favorite and go-to dish is the Chicken Tacos. The salsa and guacamole are above average and the tortilla chips are decent but cooked a little too crispy. The verde salsa is phenomenal along with their hotter red salsa.
Disclaimer : the bartenders make strong drinks here.
The service lacks a little bit sometimes because of the language barrier unless you speak Spanish, and when the place is packed sometimes. I’ve learned of the years though that the bartender/server girls are very nice nonetheless.
This is one of the better Mexican restaurants I’ve been to, and definitely among the best in the chicken taco category. I give them a solid 4 with roof for improvement to become a 5.

Went once a week all summer and wish i could still
Do the same now. The food is fantastic… the service is great ( usually sit at the bar ). This place is a hidden gem…. It’s fantastic!

Carnitas and Chorizo tacos are a win every time. They could just sell those and be ok, but no, they entice our tastebuds with so much more! We came here often before moving to NC and couldn’t wait to visit again. The food is flavorful and fresh, good selection of drinks as well, and it’s got a vibrant atmosphere. Definitely worth a visit or 5.

They charged me $27 for a simple milanesa torta with just a little bit of lettuce. That’s all it had! I think it’s a rip-off and the prices are ridiculously high. Please pay more attention to your pricing this is unacceptable for what you’re offering.

This used to be a five-star spot for me. I won’t order again. The quality has declined over the last few orders. As a recurring customer I called the manager because I was unhappy with what I believe was the wrong dish arriving or at least to express how the meat they sent in no way resembled flank steak and no salsas were included, he told me I ordered the wrong thing and recommended what to order next time and that I should have gotten 4 salsas with what I ordered but I got none. So I ate the dry salty slow cooked-pulled meat product they call flank steak (see pics) which looks like carnitas and taste like a pot roast. They couldn’t find my order when I called they had no recollection of an order I just received. Terrible customer service I’ll spend my money elsewhere.
