Ribbon Cutting at Acapulcos Mexican Grill

The welcomed one of its newest members on June 21 with a ribbon cutting ceremony:

Acapulcos Mexican Grill, located at 1260 Mars Hill Road, opened in April and boasts big portions of traditional, authentic Mexican cuisine made with fresh ingredients.

It's the first restaurant for co-owners Greg Reidling and Noe Solis, and, so far, business is going well, Solis said. Waiters pride themselves on pleasing customers while providing quick service, he said.

"Everybody's friendly," Jose Solis, a waiter and Noe's brother, said. "We try to be the best servers we can.  Come see us and tell us what you think."

Here are two of the specialties you'll find on the menu:

• El Mojcajete - Grilled chicken breast, carne asada, one cheese quesadilla,  onions, banana peppers, green sauce, cheese slices, and choice of flour or corn tortillas.
• El Cazuelon- Two slices of chicken, a piece of steak, chorizo, rice and beans, pico de gallo, and two tortillas.

A complete menu is available on-line.
