Lindo Acapulco — Restaurant in Hawthorne

My family and I were visiting California from Chicago, IL for the first time and this restaurant did not disappoint any of us, this is by far the best Mexican food in the area, it's phenomenal. As soon as you enter it feels like home, everyone is super friendly and treat you with respect. The service was amazing, they have handmade tortillas (which is a plus), very courteous, and the food is delicious. They do have plenty of options on their menu, if they don't and you request it they would gladly prepare that for you. They have reasonable prices!!!! We would definitely come back...

Get ready to get disappointed if you’re here for Menudo. I had a big craving for it and was in the area so decided let’s get it a try. My husband spent $40 on two Menudos just to be dissatisfied.

One thing is for sure it didn’t have a menudo flavor to it and it started making my stomach hurt. I needed a mineral water asap and still my stomach is definitely not feeling the greatest...

Had lunch here yesterday, and all I can say is that my own Mama isn't Mexican, but if she were, I would want her to cook and serve the food they cook and serve here.

Their homemade salsa was so far from store-bought, it felt like I'd been invited into the chef/owner's home. I had to ask for extra because the first bowl didn't make it...
