We ordered tamales for the White Elephant crew party of Ballet Austin's Nutcracker. It was at the Long Center. Everyone enjoyed the spread which included the tamales. Delish!
Last minute order, no prob, included hot sauces, and napkins. Arandas provided a perfect meal in such a short time.

The ladies here are so sweet!!!. Authentic Mexican food. Highly recommend the menudo and Los tacos de pastor. Horchata taste fresh and cold. And the chips come out fast. Easy parking and clean!!!!

Authentic Mexican food. Their mini street tacos are delicious. The meat is solid. Salsa is also delicious. Only complaint is that the spiciness of the salsa is inconsistent. Some days you’re on fire, and others it’s normal. They are always nice and food is great.

I love their salsa! Friendly staff and good prices. Great for breakfast too. I love the eggs Mexicana and their chicken tostada is filling and tasty.

It's really more a three and a half star than anything. Fine, but not great.
Got Carne gusada on flour and shredded chicken on flour. The Gusada was better than it looked, since it looked like bologna chunks, instead of beef. Tasted OK, only moderately tender. It's a no It's really more a three and a half star than anything. Fine, but not great.

The chicken was better. Seasoned well. Substantial portion. $3.50 for each and two was a meal.
Where it really fell short were the floor tortillas. Thickness was fine, but they didn't try to warm or crisp them up at all. Bland.
Will try again for breakfast.

Carne asada plate was simply delicious! My wife loved it as well. Our waiter was from Peru, so my wife was elated about that…service was excellent!

Good place for nexican food. They were pretty busy so we had to wait longer than usual and they messed up the order so we had to wait even longer. Service was good, other than that

This is really an amazing and very well run family restaurant with some really great folks. The food is outstanding and is as authentic as it gets. The atmosphere is fun and classic both. It really is one of my favorite restaurants.
