Absolutely delicious!! Fantastic service, we were given our food very quickly. The chips and salsa were amazingly fresh. We had the ACP with mushrooms, and the ACC (shrimp). Dishes were hot and tasted great. We will definitely be coming back. Great portion sizes for lunch. More

My son was hungry for tacos and I’m so glad we came to ACPs! The tacos were outstanding. The food is fresh and made from scratch. Nice vibe, clean, friendly service! Al Pastor tacos were Al Pasterrific according to my 7 year old. Great spot! We’ll be back! More

THIS place has drool inducing amazing birrias. Personally I do not reach for birrias but tried theirs on a whim and we ended up ordering it two days in a row because it was that delicious. The guy running it also was friendly as well! Their ACP was good however must try birrias! More

They were so kind and welcoming without even knowing the occasion. Once they found out the occasion they treated us like family and celebrated with us. The food, dessert, and drinks were all so yummy and the fantastic staff truly made the entire experience. I wish we could rate them higher, run don’t walk to ACP!

I happened across this little place by accident, and what a happy accident it was. The atmosphere inside is very cozy, and very green, the walls being decorated with a bonsai motif that I found quite soothing. The first thing I tried was a margarita -- of course -- and it was enormous! It took both hands to lift it but it was well worth the effort. I then tried the ACPC (arroz con pollo y camarones) which was tasty, filling, and beautifully plated. Add to that a very attentive and cheerful server, and you have a well-earned five star review. I'm on my way there right now, in fact, to explore the reset of the menu.

No longer ACP Grill, they changed names to Los Tres. Apparently new ownership. I wish I had gone to Taco Bell. Food was horrible. I ordered an enchilada and rice. Enchilada was sweet and cheese wasn't even melted inside. Food was barely warm and poor ingredients. One other person was there. When it was ACP Grill it was good, now it's horrible. I feel like we were robbed of our money.

After reading tons of positive reviews from a new local restaurant we decided tonight was the night we check it out. We visited for early dinner and were greeted with friendly service throughout our meal. That is where the positives stop. The APC consisted of a large chewy chicken that was paper thin along with some rice and what looked and tasted like melted kraft singles on top. The margarita is as large as it is sugary. Overall the service was great but the food was a huge disappointment. Sad to say it will be some time if we go back.

Had a nice bar, too, but it seemed very family friendly.

New restaurant in strip mall near Tryon Rd and Kildaire Farm road. Very small restaurant. Went here mid week for dinner and the place was empty which would usually be concerning but I was told the food is good. The hostess pointed to a table by the soda a machine for the 4 of us to sit at. I asked instead if we could sit at another table and pointed to a larger table for 4 and was told no those are for “parties” or something of the sort which made no sense since the place was empty and they had other tables that sit 4 and a larger table as well. So off we went to sit by the soda machine even though we were the only customers.
Complimentary chips and salsa were brought to the table and they were both good. The waitress was a bit quick to come by to take our order and we needed to ask for more time to look over the menu a number of times. There were a variety of ACP dishes to choose from as well as fajitas, tacos, burritos, quesadillas, and chimichangas. Two in our group got ACP dishes, one got tacos, and one burrito. Once ordered the food came very quickly. It was served hot and on heavy dishes like old school quality. The food was really fresh tasting and flavorful. Not greasy or premade tasting. Portions were good as well. The menu indicated they serve breakfast and brunch as well.

Really pretty inside. Smaller than expected, but it was cozy. Went to have dinner, but we were thrown off by the prices. However, we decided we’d at least have a margarita since we had sat down. Now those were AMAZING. I’d come back for the drinks. Salsa was mid.
