Acapulco Deli - Review - Greenpoint - New York - The Infatuation

"We take restaurant recommendations from a handful of trusted sources. Friends, family, the internet, Pat Kiernan. But when the tip comes from another respected restaurant? Straight to the top of our list. To risk losing us as customers so we can enjoy a meal and spend our money elsewhere - that’s the stuff of angels. And that’s how we learned about Acapulco Deli and Restaurant. On a trip to Mexico 2000 - another excellent, low-key Mexican spot in Brooklyn - we were told that we had to try this Greenpoint mainstay. The lady making us tacos literally told us we needed to taste the tacos at another place. You just don’t look that type of free taco intel in the face. So of course we went. And then we went back. And then we went back six(teen) more times. Out of nowhere, Acapulco Deli has become one of our most reliable Mexican spots. For the food, of course, but also for the fact that we can use it for so many meals. First time through, we were five men lining the lunch counter. Next, I came +1 and took a table for a low-key Date Night. After that, I showed up and ate a solo Mexican breakfast. Each visit we were fully taken care of and each visit we had an excellent meal. So thanks for the recommendation, nice taco lady. We owe you one. Or six(teen). Food Rundown Nachos Moses. The chips, which are excellent on their own, are laid on top of beans, and then covered with cheese, before being set under the broiler. They come out all sortsa gooey-melted and are then topped with lettuce, pico, jalapeños and your meat of choosing. Reread that rundown. The beans on the bottom make them equal parts messy and incredible. Tacos Compared to your normal taqueria, these are massive. Which is why they are $6-7. But an order comes with two, which is enough food for a normal lunch. Double tortilla, onions and cilantro, and a heavy heap of steak, al pastor, spicy meat, whatever. Good value, good charred meat. Fajitas Can’t tell you the last time we gave a sht about fajitas but this place does them right. Go with the mixed chicken and steak. The meat is tender and the peppers and onions are cooked perfectly. Huaraches The lone disappointment from our visits. The refried beans lack flavor, and they are entirely unwieldy. No need for these with so many other heavy hitters in the park. Carne Asada Can go simple here, too. Thin steak pressed on the grill, solid rice and beans. Mexican Soda Because they’re full of sugar and sugar is delicious." - Ben Kopelman

"Pernil enchilado torta at Acapulco DeliMy heart raced as I saw the pernil enchilado torta on the menu at Acapulco Deli, made with a pork roast bathed in a thick Mexican chile sauce. When it arrived in its aluminum receptacle, I was not disappointed, though the sandwich was so gloppy with sauce and avocado, I was covered from head to toe before I was finished ($10). The pickled jalapeno gives it extra kick." - Robert Sietsema

A Mexican diner that hasn't changed in the 20 years I've been eating fajitas and nachos here. It's cheap, solid and perfect for a no frills breakfast and the service is fast, too!

Delicious home style Mexican food. I love the fact that they make their own beans, they’re not out of a can. If you ordered chips with guacamole, you might think it’s a little expensive but the amount of guacamole that they give you is massive. And it’s delicious. And they have Horchata.

I got charged 8 dollars for a beer here, I went because the reviews said they have affordable good food, 30 dollars for a plate of food and one beer is not affordable. Portion was big, but the quality of the food was normal. For the price you can eat a plate of food wherever else in Greenpoint

Great service and good food! We enjoyed the $3 or $4 beers, each time we’d get a new glass that was in the freezer so that was nice. For food, we had the salted beef tacos and chorizo! Both super delicious and tasty, my only complaint it was a bit too salty compared to other places we’ve been

Excellent local Mexican breakfast spot. I got the Huevos Rancheros which comes with 2 eggs, beans, potato/cauliflower and salsa. The beans were super smooth and seasoned perfectly. The tortillas were fresh and served as great DIY tacos containers (idk if this is how you’re supposed to eat it 😄. Highly recommended.
