Acapulco Tropical Y Mas - Ellenton

I've passed this place on 301 many many times and never went in until this weekend since they advertised cheap baby back ribs. I was like ok...I'll bite. What a cool place! This market has a little of everything! Fish, meats, produce, desserts, flowers, jewelry, and authentic made to cook meals. After picking up a few things, we decided to try a handful of items from their cafe. We ordered the steak gringos (delicious), the bacon wrapped jalapeños (yummy), the beef empanadas (oh heck ya), and the street corn (a huge NO in my book- too salty and too much seasoning. I threw it out). The cafe was packed, and everyone seemed to enjoy their food in the dining area. Prices are very reasonable, and we will definatekynbe back to try more foods on their menu!

I've had this place rated a 5 for years. It used to be great. And still is for some things. But I often go to get food from the restaurant area and the area is so consistently disgusting that I can no longer keep it at a 5. The tables are always dirty and on top of that you spend more time swatting flies away from your face and food when you're eating than you do actually eating. I keep coming back thinking one day it'll be better but at this point I think I'm done trying. It's been years.

Very upset that I purchased seasoned chicken taco meat that was bad, spoiled and rotten!

My family and I love your food but the rotisserie chicken has WAY too much vinegar.

I love this market. I mostly go to the meat counter and to buy food at the restaurant. The one thing my family and I complain about is that their rotisserie chicken has an extreme amount of vinegar, making it barely eatable. When I've bought it we ate it to not waste it, but it's gotten to the point that I'm not buying it anymore. I hope they fix that because besides the extreme vinegar it taste really good. It's a life saver when I don't have the time to cook meat, but I just can't buy it anymore.
