A must-visit spot for food lovers on the Costera. --- When people think of Acapulco food, they think seafood — ceviche, aguachile, grilled fish. And they're not wrong. But if you're craving the best burger you've ever had in Mexico, there's only one place I send people: **Sharky's Grill**. It's not just good for Acapulco — it's good, period. ## What Makes Sharky's Different Acapulco has no shortage of burger joints — from fast food chains to hotel restaurants that throw a patty on a bun and call it a day. Sharky's is nothing like that. Every burger is made from fresh, never-frozen beef, hand-pressed and grilled to order over an open flame. You can taste the difference from the first bite. The buns are soft, toasted just right, and actually hold up to the juicy patty without falling apart in your hands. The toppings are generous but balanced — they know that a great burger is about harmony, not piling on everything in the kitchen. What really sets Sharky's apart is the atmosphere. It's casual, no-frills, and welcoming. You'll find locals and tourists sitting side by side, everyone there for the same reason — because someone told them "you have to try Sharky's." ## The Menu — Something for Everyone Sharky's menu is focused but packed with flavor. Their hamburguesas are the star — from the signature Sharky's Special to the Bacon Jalapeño and the indulgent Mar & Tierra (surf and turf on a bun). Every burger comes with fries included, and the portions are generous. Whether you go classic cheese or double up, you're getting a serious meal. But it's not just burgers. Their hot sandwiches are excellent — the BBQ Pork is tender and smoky, and the Philly Cheese Steak is one of the best I've had outside the States. They also serve burritos, quesadillas, and even a loaded hot dog that's become a local favourite. And then there are the extras. The onion rings are crispy perfection. The jalapeños momia (mummy jalapeños — stuffed and breaded) are addictive. And the cheese fingers? Order them. Trust me. ![Sharky's Grill full menu](https://acapulcotourguide.com/assets/sharkys-menu-I58KXfLM.jpg) ## Baldo's Order Recommendations - **Sharky's Special ($155):** Their signature burger — perfectly seasoned, loaded with toppings, and absolutely worth every peso. This is the one that keeps people coming back. - **Bacon Jalapeño ($145):** The perfect balance of smoky bacon and spicy kick. If you like a little heat, this is your burger. - **BBQ Pork Sandwich ($135):** Tender pulled pork with tangy BBQ sauce and purple cabbage slaw. A serious contender for the best thing on the menu. - **Don't skip the extras:** The onion rings ($60) and jalapeños momia ($90) are must-orders. And their papas gajo (potato wedges, $55) are the perfect side. ## Why Tourists Love It I've brought hundreds of tourists to Sharky's over the years, and the reaction is always the same: surprise. They didn't expect to find a burger this good in a beach town known for seafood. But that's exactly what makes Acapulco special — it's full of surprises if you know where to look. For families, it's a lifesaver. After a few days of trying new Mexican dishes, kids (and let's be honest, some adults too) are craving something familiar. Sharky's delivers that comfort while still feeling like a local experience, not a chain restaurant. The prices are incredibly reasonable too. A full meal — burger, fries, and a drink — will run you around 150-200 pesos (roughly $9-12 USD). For the quality you're getting, that's hard to beat anywhere. ## How to Get There Sharky's Grill is located at **Luis Donaldo Colosio, Granjas del Marqués, 39890 Acapulco de Juárez, Gro., Mexico**. Phone: [+52 744 448 3971](tel:+527444483971) . It's easy to find and accessible from most hotel zones. If you're staying in the Costera area, a short taxi or Uber ride will get you there. They tend to get busy on weekends and holidays, so I recommend going for a late lunch (around 3-4 PM) to avoid the rush. But honestly, even if you have to wait, it's worth it. ## The Verdict Sharky's Grill isn't just the best burger spot in Acapulco — it's one of the best I've had in all of Mexico. Whether you're a tourist looking for a break from seafood or a local who appreciates quality ingredients and honest cooking, Sharky's delivers every single time. Put it on your list. You won't regret it. ## What Tourists Are Saying The food is always fresh and made with amazing care. I had the privilege to meet a couple from Niagara Falls, Canada weeks before this post, and they were amazed — not only with the local burritos and quesadillas, but also the burgers! Recently, here is what one of my tourist groups from Canada had to say: > > "I was extremely impressed with the quality of the food. As a tourist, when we arrived in Guerrero Acapulco we had no idea where to go for dinner to experience some authentic cuisine, but also some traditional favorites from back home. Sharky's offered the best of both worlds. > > Within a week and a half of our travels, we ate at Sharky's 5 times. Each visit we tried something new and each time was honestly amazing. We were told before we went to Mexico that the food was not going to be great. But wow, we were totally blown away — it was by far the best part of our vacation besides the local tours of Acapulco provided by Baldo, including the City Tour of Acapulco and the Historical Tour of Acapulco. > > Sharky's experience was probably our best taste of home and on vacation. Would highly recommend this restaurant to any tourist new to the area of Guerrero Acapulco. We don't have this quality of food at these prices in Canada, but we sure wish we did." ## Discover More Hidden Gems Sharky's is just one of the many local favourites I recommend.
