Customer Reviews
Been to this wonderful place with awesome drinks, atmosphere and mole twice. The staff project such warm, friendly and savvy energy that on top of the excellent food that seems to show up fast, dovetails nicely with the two different seating areas. The primary seating area is forward of the bar and kitchen. I love the interior design and the subtle choices. It is perfect level of closeness. There is a second seating area outside which we used on a recent visit at the start of November 2025. It is long with narrowest part toward the front and expands backwards. It is covered and has radiant heaters on the wall. Brighter and more festive in lighting. I am currently on a "got to have" path with mole sauces and they have one that is best I have found so far in my few north eastern traveling
Very good authentic Mexican food. All of our plates were so flavorful. Highly recommend.
This place is simply amazing and this is coming from someone that isn't easily pleased. The drinks and food items are consistently of the utmost quality. I've never had a bad meal and have been many, many times. I almost hesitate leaving this because I never have trouble getting a table and don't want it getting too packed! But the food is genuine authentic mexican. I can't rate this any higher.
Wonderful experience at Acitron last night! My husband and I brought our 2 children on the anniversary of our first date at Acitron, 10 years later. The food and service were fantastic! Always delicious & authentic food. Our waitress even sent out a dessert in honor of our anniversary. Can’t recommend this restaurant enough!
Our steak fajita was well prepared & delicious. The accompaniments, however, were basic & small. The restaurant was understaffed for the 6:30-7pm Saturday crowd. Their salsa's spicier than we like, but our request for sour cream went unmet. We probably waited at the table close to 20 minutes before our meal came & we'd finished the free chips & salsa long before then, but they never offered us more.
