I am not from the area, I was passing through and stayed at the hotel next door for a flight the next day. I went here mainly for the location. I ordered the Alfredo. The noodles were tough, the sauce was so-so. I have had something that tasted close out of a jar from the market. Nothing really special. The bread was good. The older lady that seated me must have been having a bad night. She seemed unfriendly and unsmiling. The service was fair. The waiter asked several times if I needed anything, so a least I was not abandoned after I was seated. I have had Italian food in LA, not to mention several other locations around the country, that puts this place to shame. If it is all you know (or is the best you have ever had) then I guess it would be great. I am afraid I get around alot and was not very impressed however. Sorry to the locals, no offence intended. Might have just been a bad night...but in my opinion it was over priced for what I got. less

The Chili Rellenos are the worst, don't even go there. They are like a glob of dry dough, no sauce and tasteless. I only go there for the Fajitis Grande, and that is worth once or twice a year AT MOST. Over priced, loud, slow service (although us ... more

The Chili Rellenos are the worst, don't even go there. They are like a glob of dry dough, no sauce and tasteless. I only go there for the Fajitis Grande, and that is worth once or twice a year AT MOST. Over priced, loud, slow service (although usually friendly) and most of the food on the menu is yck. I recommend going up the street to Casa Jiminiez for a darn site better meal, REAL mexican food, sit down, beer and all you can eat for 6.50. I often go and order the Chili verde Burrito A la Cart for 3.99 and can't eat it all. Try that for a better meal, then go back to Acapulco for happy hour if you must... less

This is one of those places you actually need to know how to order for to get the best out of it. I recommend this over driving to Riverside, where you might find better Chinese, but in my opinion, not by much. I have to say I have always been treated very well here, the service is very, very good for an area (HEMET) that in general is usually not very attentive when it comes to service. I suggest that you skip the common stuff like "Sweet and Sour" and order the Chinese meal with the Mala three flavors, House Chrispy Shrimp and house special Lo main. Ask for the assorted Won Ton soup (often called "Wor Won Ton" in other restuants) when you order (it comes with it and has veggies, shrimp and meat rather than just noodles). I really like their food, the price is actually very good considering it usually supplies me with lunch for the next day. They serve plenty for me, but then may be I eat lighter than some. (Hubbie can't eat it all either!) less

I ate there once, never again. I can honestly say I got food poisioning from this place, I was sick for two days. The service was not only bad, the waitress was an older lady with a real attitude toward anyone under 50. She crooned over all the elders and left us waiting ages for a glass of water. When we tried to make a polite inquire as to when we would get our food (after 45 min) she stiffend up and glared like she was going to take a switch to us (we are in our early 40's, but up starts to her I guess). I think it is great that the older folks have a place of their own, and honestly, they are welcome to it. It is over priced, an old tired interior and disgusting service. I could cook better at home in the broiler for a fraction of the price and avoid the insulting treatment. "This is a place for laying down and avoiding" [Monty Python] less

I have to generally agree with the reviews posted, except that it seems to me like a slightly higher priced, slightly better food version of Dennys. If you want a simple breakfast of eggs and bacon, hit Dennys for a lower price of the same thing.Their pies and baked goods however are really quite good. Coffee is too. My place of choice for muffins and coffee breakfasts! less

Rather over priced I think. The food is good, I would give it on its own 4-5 stars, but if you have the money to spend here, spend some on gas and hit Riverside for a better experience. This place it tiny and crowded. It was rather like eating in a closet. Service is good considering the work load of the waiters, but not a calming experience for me. For the money, and atmosphere, I'd say "no" to the next time someone suggests it. less

I like their pasta and shrimp alfredo. Recommended for this dish alone. Over all, I agree with the majority of the posts on this place, I dislike the noise level and the screaming kids, but as said, it IS a family place. I just wish people would teach kids how to behave in a resturant. (Sometimes I don't care to share the joys of parenthood). Other than that, it has some good, but not specifically memorable, food. less
