The food and service here were great! I ordered cheese enchiladas and my husband ordered a cheese enchilada and steak with rice and beans. The only reason I marked "Very Good" and not "Excellent" is because it was a little dirty and the booth seats had holes in them, which wasnt too pleasant to sit on. I would definitely go... More

This is a locals favorite. The service was a little slow, but in fairness, we had a group of 8. They serve baskets of delicious corn chips and flour tortilla chips. The flour tortilla chips are addictive! I had the flautas plate. They were fine. This particular restaurant of the Corpus Christi Acapulco group is a big dining room, brightly... More

We ate at the Acapulco on Airline Dr. after arriving on a late afternoon flight to Corpus. We didn't have to wait since it was just a hair before 5 pm, so we sat down and ordered immediately. Our server was very pleasant and efficient. She came by often, inquiring if we'd like more iced tea or other items. We... More

We go to Acapulco for breakfast on Sunday morning. There is generally a wait, but it is worth the wait. This restaurant is not fancy, just good food at a really good price. The wait staff is very efficient. The host that seats you, takes your dring order. The waitress brings your drinks soon after and takes your order. Food... More

Anytime we want Mexican food, we can rely on Acapulco. Both locations on Weber have met my expectations. 4 of us eat there for $20 too. Skip the rice and beans, try a couple of carne asada tacos or a torta. Their quesadillas are the best too. More

Our interior, circle roadtrip of Texas (Dallas/SoPadre/Corpus/Houston/Kilgore/Dallas) brought us into Corpus. We were hungry for Mexican food. We found Alcapulco on TripAdvisor. This restaurant should be rated much higher as the food AND service were excellent! Even the men's restroom was clean! We ordered their #37, Breaded Beef... if you love Chicken Fried Steak, you'll really like this pounded thin... More
