Arandas: Reviews & Ratings

First time visitor. I rate Mexican restaurants on their hot sauce and margaritas and I always have to ask for HOT sauce and it was great. Margaritas were okay. Stopped at lunch and the prices were good for lunch and my lunch portion and food were pretty good. My husband had steak tacos and he said the lunch was good but the steak needed a bit more seasoning. I would need to come back again and try something else to determine if they warrant higher than 4 stars.

This place is so great. Insider tip: get a contarita - it's a yummy tequila cocktail in a clay cup. Great service and the food comes out within 15 minutes without fail. It's always good and consistent - and affordable!

My husband and I stopped here as it was one of the only places in the area we found to allow inside diners. We're so glad we found this place! Some of the best Mexican we've had as self-proclaimed Mexican food divas lol. Fast service, super clean private restrooms, and friendly staff. We'll be stopping by any time we come back to this area!
