What People Are Saying About Baby Acapulco

Featured Review

Contributor

Contributor

In Short – The pink-and-green exterior broadcasts the casual nature of this eatery. Several brightly painted dining rooms provide refuge in cooler months, but the patio is where couples, college students and large groups soak up the sunshine and the popular margaritas. Queso compuesto is a hearty mix of guacamole, chunky pico de gallo, seasoned ground beef and cheese. Catfish tacos get a cool kick from cilantro, avocado and tomatoes and are topped off with firm, sweet flan.

Editor's Tips

What to Drink:
It's always 'rita time, and here you can choose among 10 frozen margaritas, including cantaloupe and passion fruit, or select a premium tequila and down it as a shot, in a margarita, or in a Mexican martini.
The Extras:
Baby Acapulco will prepare to go orders, but charges an additional 10-percent on each order.

Purple Margaritas!!

by coog78 at Citysearch

Wow, the purple margarita made with everclear can really get you tipsy quick! Food here is terrible, but that one drink is so good! There is a two per person limit if that tells you how strong they are. Big ups to the purple!

  • Pros: purple margaritas
  • Cons: food, service, atmosphere

You have to get a margarita

by franceebrown at Citysearch

I am at BAby A's just about every Friday. The margaritas have got to be the best in the state. They are so good and pack a mean kick The purple is great but it will knock you out. The baby changa is my favorite as far as food goes. I would recommend it with cheese sauce instead of the avacado sauce. It comes with real fajita chicken meat in it. It's sooooo good.

  • Pros: people watching, drinks
  • Cons: parking

Yum Yum to our tum tum

by trufolk at Citysearch

I reccomend the Baby A's chicken soup!

This is what I always get from here!

My family has never complained about anything they have ordered.

can get very crowded, but I like the fact that they have the enclosed bar area, make for a nice family meal :)

the best for a Tex-Mex lunch

by lizlovestoeat at Citysearch

This location on IH-35 at Howard Lane is great for lunch. It's got enough seating to handle the crowds and the service is very speedy. Order the Baby A's soup combo, which is a ton of food for cheap - caldo de pollo with rice and your choice of taco, puffy taco, or salad on the side. The soup is loaded with chicken breast and avocado. Chopped cilantro, lime, and red onion make for an absolutely ambrosial broth. Ask for extra chipotle in the soup if you've got seasonal allergies or a cold - it'll fix you right up!

  • Pros: good value, fast service, consistent food quality
  • Cons: a bit noisy with the hard floors
