“ Love the cops and salsa. The best was Cheese Enchiladas Con Carne. The margarita was just okay. ”
“ I love their hot sauce and their Mexican food! Tequila drinks for happy hour! Love their outdoor dining! ”
“ I was invited to a going away party on Saturday night and there was about 15 of us attending. The server assigned to our table was taking drink orders as we sat down. My jalapeño margarita was delicious and I was pleasantly surprised to see lots of fresh sliced peppers floating around. My shredded chicken enchiladas with sour cream sauce and fresh jalapeños were yummy. Food runners helped the server to accommodate all of our meals. ”
“ We love to come here, sit on the patio and chicken fajitas for two and a couple drinks. One complaint...the Ranch Water. A Ranch Water is made, specifically, with Topo Chico. The drink menu even notes it's supposed to be Topo Chico. I have sent these back on previous occasions asking to please make with Topo Chico. Not sure why the bar is not doing this without having to send it back, but they are not. They are making with plain soda, I believe. Not the distinctive bubbly Topo Chico. Guess they are trying to save a buck? I give up on hoping they'll make them right. My only complaint. ”
“ Considering how El Arroyo is a household name and everyone and their dog in Arlington knows about them, this is my first time actually going to eat there after living in Texas for nearly 20 years lol. I went on a Monday afternoon so it wasn't crazy busy and my friend and I got our food fairly quickly. Our waitress and other wait staff were very courteous. The food was good. Nothing amaaaazing imo but it was good. The margaritas, though? They were phenomenal. I liked them. I got a frozen flavored margarita and then a regular on the rocks one and my friend got a jalapeño margarita on the rocks that was really good, too. Restaurant was clean and the bathroom was clean so overall it was a great experience. ”
