“ El Huipil is a favorite spot, ever since I went to their first location in Maynard. For whatever reason, this Acton location doesn’t seem to get a lot of traffic, but if you’re in the area I really suggest you stop by. Food is great. I really wish they had a “simple” marg that wasn’t the house mix, but it’s not worth complaining about or docking a star. Family buisness, great execution, happy to patron here every now and again. ”
“ Excellent authentic Mexican food ! Everything we tried was delicious. The empanadas on the appetizer menu were amazing! ”
“ My husband, Granddaughter and myself had dine in lunch today and we where very pleasantly surprised and how good the restraunt was.The waitress was very attentive and the food was delicious.We will most certainly visit it again wish it was closer to Mystic ct. Thank you ”
“ Brought my kids here for dinner last week. Very cute and nicely decorated Mexican restaurant with live music. I enjoyed my Mango Margarita, and my son especially liked chicken wings. Very reasonable price, and dishes are larger-sized. Will be back more for sure. ”
“ This place got us through the pandemic. We've been ordering takeout from here every other week or so since September and have never been disappointed. Good variety on the menu, including gluten free and vegetarian options. We like the green enchiladas, enfrijoladas, guacamole, and margaritas! Our takeout orders are always ready for pickup on time, the price is right, and everyone who works there is so friendly. We are also looking forward to dining in at some point---they have a cute outdoor seating area with plenty of tables. We feel so lucky to have this place in town. ”
“ Went here for the first time and it won't be our last. To start, we had chips, salsa, and guacamole. I ordered 4 tacos (lengua, al pastor, chorizo, and carnita) with a side of rice. The lengua was but into thick slices, which I've never had in that way, but it was extremely tender and flavorful. The al pastor was fantastic.. these two would be the ones I order again. I'll also ask for a slice of lime to use with the tacos. The chorizo was ok and the carnitas were a little too dry for my liking. I wish I had room for the churros, but we'll definitely be getting them next time. Service was extremely attentive and kind. ”
“ This establishment offers great service, excellent Margaritas and HEALTHY portions. Definitely a must to stop in and experience great choices of of food, drink and music. 5 stars!!! ”
“ We dined in on a weekend and it wasn’t too busy, our waiter, his name was Will, was very nice and welcoming. I couldn’t wait for my food, and the sizzling fajitas were delicious, some of the best I’ve had. My wife got the green enchiladas, which she seriously enjoyed. I would absolutely recommend this spot to all my friends and family in the area. ”
