The waiter JUANITO was absolutely amazing! He made sure we had a lovely time with friends and family while celebrating bdays. Above all the lady that does the tortillas was extremely sweet, professional and remind us of our culture in Mexico! Both are amazing, humble and kind! Employees of the MONTH!

Came here for our first brunch of 2026 last Sunday with the friend group - and usually always have a great time at Acapulco. This time was no exception - we were promptly seated, and we all did the bottomless mimosa brunch (everything is included in one price). I wanted to give a special shout out to our server Valerie - she was super attentive and checking in on us to ensure we had refills (Always a plus when there's mimosas involved, ha) and that our plates were cleared at all times. Not only that - she was super good energy and made us laugh with good conversation throughout. Foodwise - you have your typical Mexican brunch items (chilaquiles, enchiladas, pozole, menudo, etc.) - and a kids section as well for those that have children. Some of the items that were sitting out of course weren't as fresh as could be - but that's typically every buffet style. The taco station was the best part, the meat and tortillas were super fresh (asada, carnitas, chicken is what I had) -- with a separate toppings station to customize how you want. I was too full for dessert - but they had flan, Jello, and other options. Entertainment - they have a Mariachi band that goes around singing and playing their instruments. We didn't have them come directly to our table, but it was nice feeling the authentic music vibes while eating and socializing. Overall, it was a great time to have fun, catch up, and eat a decent brunch. I recommend. If possible, ask for Valerie!

Greetings and Salutations. I walked into Acapulco Mexican restaurant looking for a little taste of home. Saida was bright and beaming with joy, almost jumping up and down with excitement to show us a table, and her Spanish skills knocked the wind off my ZAPATOS! Ayayay! was my reaction to this amazing service, as well as the tasty, delicious Flan that our amazing waiter Luis served us. Cano ran our food super-fast and gave my friend a delicious SOPA. Will come again!

Been a long time since I have visited an Acapulco. Highly recommend coming here for brunch and requesting Valarie as your server. She is kind sweet and patient! Thank you Valarie for giving us a 5 star experience!!!

Each visit feels perfect, never letting me down. The team is warm, attentive, and truly focused on your comfort, offering great care and respect. Every plate arrives full of flavor, with portions that feel more than worth the cost. The Sunday morning feast is exceptional a little pricey, yet fully justified. For me, this spot is worth any wait and every dollar spent.

During our five-day vacation in California in early April 2025, my wife and I stayed at a nearby hotel. On our first night, we asked the concierge for local dining recommendations, and he suggested Acapulco. It was just a short two-block walk, so we strolled over and I’m so glad we did. I wasn’t sure what to expect, but I was pleasantly surprised. The food was delicious, the portions were generous, the prices were a great value, and the service was genuinely attentive. We enjoyed it so much that we ended up dining there three out of our five nights. A quick tip: check out their daily specials. Even though the prices are low, the portions remain impressively large. Acapulco was truly one of the highlights of our trip. Thank you for the wonderful experience!

This restaurant serves very great food and drinks. I had a street taco with steak. The waiter Jesus M is very funny and adds to the positivity of the atmosphere. This is a great place to celebrate a retirement for a friend. First time in California. I will be back again. Price range starts at $20 for a decent meal.

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!!

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. 🤣😂

Came here to say with my daughter to have some brunch that we’ve heard so much about. Let me just say that the service provided by Federico and Juanita was phenomenal! They are all so attentive and wonderful plus the music is amazing made me want to dance.

As first time customers, we were very much satisfied by the food and customer service. Our señor 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!

Honestly never a disappointment every time I come. The servers are super friendly and attentive to your requests and needs. They give the most respect and make sure your taken care of. The food is always good and the portions are way worth the money. The Sunday brunch is no joke. It can be pricey but it’s worth it. So in my opinion this place is worth the wait if there is one and worth the money.

The service was definitely way slower than I would have expected and/wanted. I understand it was busy for a Wednesday night, but it was a little frustrating. Especially because we see other servers being more diligent. BUT the hostess Valerie was amazing! She was so sweet and extremely helpful. Immediately she was so friendly as I walked through the door. She even brought us our check and missing waters! She definitely deserves more appreciation!

Good food and great atmosphere but I've definitely had many better mexican places in SoCal. Service could've been a little better. Reasonably priced.

ODE TO THE HALIBUT FILET Buttery and flaky, savory and delectable yet supple. Lost but never forgotten, May its memory be a blessing. They took it off the menu. Been coming here for 35 years and the off-menu special request has finally been nixed once and for all. The sauce IS however still available. Ask for salmon filet with the white wine sauce and it’s pretty good. Can’t go wrong with the chicken fajitas. Birria tacos are pretty good, the consommé isn’t too salty. Service was on the slow towards the end of the night but that’s to be expected.

Very relaxed atmosphere food was good. And I finally got to try some real fried ice cream. Their take on queso is different from the Midwest but had great flavor. We enjoyed our meal and got a show of 5 police choppers flying around glendale.

This location in Glendale is old and outdated. Needs an update badly. Food is average at best. The best thing i can say is that the service is always great! Location is ideal. If the company would put some money into updating this place and cleaning it up this place would be a gold mine. I’ve been in the restaurant biz( it’s evident management just doesn’t care. For a quick bite this place is good.

It's been almost 20 years since I've been to an Acapulco, and nothing has really changed. Service was great, food and drinks were fine. Portions are really big and it's a decent value. The place is comfortable enough, if a little old. Biggest complaint is how incredibly salty the food was. It will keep me from coming back.
