A local Mexican restaurant, Acapulco, has been linked to 25 cases of salmonella poisoning. I want to know why 25 people were willing to eat at that nasty place. Calling their food Mexican is like calling McDonald’s American. Yes, it is owned and operated by a local family. That doesn’t mean it’s a good place to eat. Their food is virtually taste-free and every dish tastes the same. (McDonald’s food has much more flavor!)

I ate there three times. The second time I went was just in case my first experience was an anomaly. It wasn’t. The third time was only because that’s where the boss scheduled the meeting to be. That third time, I saw the restaurant’s owner be very rude and condescending to a patron in addition to having bad food. The next time I was invited to a meeting there, I refused.

Acapulco in Newton. Do yourself a favor and just stay away.
