Pre Cinco de Mayo Celebration (Acapulco Happy Hour)

The Acapulco Restaurant in Old Town has sweet Happy Hour Deals. Every Monday-Sunday from 2pm-8pm their Margaritas, Domestic Beers, Wine and appetizers are only $2.99! I have personally tried the Chicken Flautas and they were satisfying. I’ve also tried their lime, mango, strawberry, pineapple coconut, and raspberry margaritas and they were all tasty. My favorite however was the mango margarita and raspberry margarita. Wondering where the chips and salsa are? Once at the restaurant, help yourself to some colorful chips and flavorful but spicy salsa which is located in a chips and salsa bar next to the alcoholic beverage bar.

If you’re on a date with a boyfriend/girlfriend, spouse, friend, or family member and would like to be a little adventurous, park in front of the Hacienda Hotel in Old Town and then go through the hotel to get to the restaurant. Thinking this was the only way to get to the restaurant, my boyfriend and I did this. It was both fun and suspenseful as you must go through the hotel lobby to the first elevator, then get off follow the arrows to the second elevator, follow more arrows and you eventually make it to the top floor of the hotel where the restaurant is located. Going on this scavenger hunt for the restaurant definitely makes a date more of a memorable experience.
