About this business

Spicy Southwest flavors is our passion for great Mexican food. Despite having a deep love for the cuisine, simply cooking and eating it wasn't enough for us, all we wanted to do was share our food. Acapulco Joe's was established out of a desire to share. Since opening more than 50 years ago, we striven to bring the best of Mexican cuisine to all those who have been willing to try it. That's why we're Indianapolis' first Mexican Restaurant, we wanted to expose the north to the cuisine of the South. Within Mexican cuisine, we ... read more

Took more than an hour for our food. Salsa and sauce was gross. Not at all like I remembered. There was only like 4 other tables with a few people at them. Only 2 waitresses. Not very good.

To bad you fired all your great servers... your business is about to lose a ton of people.... im not done getting the word out.. your gay and married so leave the other men alone... i say within a month you will notice a big difference in not having customers.. oh and the food sucks to.. nothing like stale chips. And i love seeing people pick their nose and then handle my food (that i did not eat and knocked on the floor)

Now the place has food that is lousy and cold,and all the old friendly servers are gone! The line for this place used to go down Illinois street clear past the parking garage, now it is dead! This place used to be Awesome---What Happened???

Just not trying hard enough. Tastes like bad 80's Mexican. I think their "secret sauce" is Manwich.

The new owner (about a year old), has cleaned the place up nicely yet still has some of Joe's touch still there. He also offers Joe's signature sauce as well as another choice which is quite good. He uses the best tequila in his top shelf margaritas plus you get your second one at half price!! The food is great! Just what we expected! He also made a point of walking around to his customers to see if everything was to their satisfaction! Let's face it...no restaurant is going to please 100% of the people, but in our opinion, ... read more

Business response:

Beyond disappointed with the service this evening. It took almost 10 minutes to be greeted at our table. My meal never came. Another server finally checked on us, I told him I wanted my food & to put in a to go container since my husband & son were already done eating. I got home, finally sat down to eat and my order wasn't right!!! 

Business response:

We want for everything to be just right when you dine with us, Amanda. You should always be greeted promptly and everyone should be able to enjoy their meal together. Unfortunately, it sounds like we had a bit of miscommunication, which caused the timing and order to be incorrect. I'm sorry that this happened, and I'll check in with my staff about this. I know that we can do better than this, so thank you for reaching out to let us know. Best, Grant, Owner
