The Scene – The margaritas are one of the main reasons to visit, and the fresh fruit liquados are another. It's a chichi Willow Glen spot, with lots of colorful artwork and decor that has a real sense of play. With dirt-cheap prices, counter service, and a fiesta atmosphere, it has captured the hearts of lots of young professionals. – – The Food – There are Caesar salads and barbecued ahi burritos, but some of the best offerings are the more traditional enchiladas and meat-filled burritos and tacos. Unlike so many inexpensive Mexican joints, desserts are not…
Aqui, our favorite restaurant
by MikeandCathy
Aqui has become our favorite restaurant. The one in Willow Glen is the one we usually go to, but we like the one in Campbell also, and the food is consistant. Not only is the food great, the prices are good, the drinks are good, and ALL the people that work there are outstanding. Everybody is cheerfull and helpfull. I'm not crazy about the new aluminum chairs. It does get pretty busy sometimes, but it is well worth it.
Amazing

This place is great!
Food quality is excellent; service is prompt; prices are reasonable.
The lines can be a little long on Friday & Saturday night but the food still comes up within 10 minutes or so..
Menu is pretty basic, some things aren't my favorites but others are great.
Try the specials; the Mahi-Mahi on Fridays is great.
- Pros: Great food, service+ they have a bar
- Cons: Long lines & sometimes trouble finding a table
Great trendy mexican food
by joan_bernstein
I enjoy going to Aqui's quite a bit. The resturant is very well designed with cool art and decor. They have a nice outdoor patio with a small fireplace, fountain and heat lamps. I have tried quite a few of their dishes and each one has been very good. They have a good selection of creative daily specials and, overall, their prices are excellent. I highly reccommend whichever soup they happen to be serving, they have all been wonderful. The low down: Large creative dishes, great prices, healthy menu selections, tasty custom desserts.
- Pros: Great menu, good prices, nice ambience
- Cons: Can get a bit crowded during dinner time
