As longtime customers, we have always enjoyed the awesome food and the great atmosphere. This past year we have had the best service ever with our waiter, Daniel(DJ). He is always very punctual, professional, personable and always treats us like we are VIP. He's one of the reasons we keep coming back. Thanks so much! read more

They give us leftover chips from others tables, i was about to eat some chips and they were so wet, not being picky but c-mon how can a mexican restaurant can treat mexicans like that is so disrespectful as latinos. The most horrible experience. Maybe for the local this restaurant is good but be careful when you got food in here read more

So very disappointed in Arribas , upon arrival everything was fine , when I used the bathroom I seen a roach and wasn't just one I wish I had my phone but that nasty take your phone to the bathroom it's a hard no any ways then when they brought out the sopaphillas , they where hard and tasted very old it tasted like cardboard mix with copper taste might just be in the bathroom but still when their babies their are more ...just hope they get that fix before they lose customers and for me I don't think I could go back just cause I was very disgusted and no am not a Karen ‍just I work hard for my money and last thing I want and am sure a lot of people hate is when someone fucking with our food .am a foodie lover but when comes to food something I don't play with ...made me very disappointed and nauseous what I saw and the taste of the sopaphillas . Great service just not the food read more

Big portions, and good food. My husband loves their blended margaritas. The service was great - our server was attentive and very accommodating. read more

I must take the time to counter any negative reviews!! We had a perfect lunch and a perfect experience!! The flavors had depth, and the food was hot and delicious!! The chips are the best! They were served very hot! The complimentary bean dip served with the chips has always been a favorite! I will say it was a bit spicy this time. The salsa is one of my very favorites!!! It is visually fresh and filled with cilantro, onions and tomatoes. LOVE the salsa!!! We didn't have a great experience last time. Such a bummer that we didn't come back sooner!! We will now be returning weekly!!! Ignore the bashers!! We almost didn't go back based on negative reviews and a prior experience. We are going to be regular customers for sure!! We have about a 20-year history with Arriba! We are happy that we returned and gave it another try! We have been missing out!!!! I'm feeling fat and happy right now!!! read more

I was able to get a table in a few minutes. Food is delicious, Mayra was awesome and attentive and happy hour was the best!!

So some of the reviews were correct, came in ordered take out, was going to be 10-15 min, so I sat at the bar and was unacknowledged for about 7 min. To me that's a little bit long, the food is always good here, just maybe add a few more staff members! read more

Margaritas did their thing. Food came out fast. Service on point oh and did i say margaritas did their thing?

I just got my order from doordash and they f*cked it up. They put chicken in my chimichanga instead of steak. I would've been fine if it was shredded but it's chopped grilled chicken like it came from a salad. i would've liked a heads up before they botched my meal. read more

I have not gone to Arriba in a very long time. The food and atmosphere was just as I remembered. Unfortunately I found nearly everything too spicy to my liking. The only thing that I could really eat that had very minimal spice was the mini chimney changas off the appetizer menu. Those were both chicken and beef mixed and were excellent. I live that apps are half off before 7pm. read more

Our waitress was friendly she was on top of making sure her table were happy the food was alright nothing crazy but definitely would come if it's the last option read more

This used to be a great place for groups. They no longer want to allow multiple separate checks for a group. So much for a friendly place to go with friends. The food is tasty. read more

It's unfortunate that I need to give a bad review. I had high hopes that the food would be good as my business associate and I stopped in on a whim. My associate ordered the Carne Asada, which he said was overcooked and not flavorful. I wasn't that hungry, so I ordered the Chicken Tortilla Soup...the soup broth was really dark (almost black), and it did not taste good at all. I only ate around 6 bites and then stopped eating it. About an hour later, my stomach started cramping...the next day, I still had stomach pains.. which was awful because I had back to back meetings... I will not be back. read more

Horrible experience. Just stop to get a beer while I waited for a meeting, sat on the bar and a roach was about to crawl in my arm. Killed it with napkin and told the bar tender, she didn't seem bothered and just she smeared the roach across the bar and called the manager. What got me is she said they've been dealing with roaches for months. What kind of business takes months to solve a roach problem, didn't even offer to comp the beer. read more

Food was amazing and server Eric was best server I've had in a while at any restaurant! Great experience!

The food was very bland. I was looking forward to eat some Mexican rice but it tasted like a rock. The service was good. The ambiance was also good. read more

Looked good, was good! Solid mex fare. Service provided was excellent (Anthony!) $6 margos down went well. Very full after post round bite. read more

I've driven by Arribas so often that it became part of the background. But it's worth checking out. The inside is not newly renovated by any stretch, the furnishing show a bit of wear, but it is good wear. It has a farm feel. A bit like going to visit your grandma on a ranch. It may be a bit old and worn, but it's comfortable. The starter chips and salsa are just my style. The chips are a bit thicker and crunchier than the standard far, and taste quite good. The salsa have a fresh pepper flavor and they give you a bean dip as part of the free offerings. Nice. I had the Burrito with the Muchaco beef. It too had a bit of smoky pepper flavor, with a fresh zing. The beef was not tough, dry or grisly, but thick and meaty. The tortilla was just the way I like it: soft, pliable, a smidge thicker than the grocery store fare-and very fresh. The service was attentive but unhurried; warm but unobtrusive; quiet and gentle but not obsequious. One word to summarize the service would be kindness. One gets the impression the server has a weighty soul. It wasn't busy, so that likely helped, but often, when restaurants are not busy, the servers dial it back. Not here - service was near perfect. In short, a rewarding experience. read more

I ordered online. I ordered the previous items. The additional info on the order did not transfer today. I ended up with pork in my chimichanga not shredded chicken. The green tamales had no ground beef topping instead of machete. The meals were terrible. I will re enter all info next time. It is a computer programming problem that Arriba has w online repeat orders. read more

Green Chile pork is outstanding as is the rice. Hatch chiles are super hot which I love. Get the White Sands Chimichanga and you will be happy read more

A favorite of ours. Food has always been fresh and flavorful. Experience this times was even more enjoyable because of our server, Lance. He was very knowledgeable of the menu and was upbeat and congenial read more

Been coming here for years. Don't know what has happened recently but we were seated and sat at a table for 10-15 minutes. No drinks. No chips. Nobody even acknowledged us so we left. read more

I have driven past this many times and never stopped in. That changed today, and I am glad it did! A quaint place, a bit stereotypical in decor, but don't let that slow you down. Friendly, efficient staff, tasty food, and decent prices. There is unexpected bean dip along with the usual chips and salsa, and the spicier salsa (you have to ask) is chunkier than most (a plus in my book). Do be warned, they have Hatch chilies, and my Pollo al Diablo brought the heat! I think any lover of New Mexico themed dishes, and Mexican food lovers in general, should give this place a try! read more

10/10 !! Definitely recommend if you're looking for authentic delicious Mexican food ! this just became our new favorite spot for when we're in town!! the service was phenomenal! Thank you Juan for being such an amazing server to us in helping & making us feel like home :) I also recommend the margaritas!! overall this place deserves more recognition!! You won't be disappointed!! read more

Staff is rude, not a friendly environment. Would not recommend this place. Food is ok, but the management and staff are sub-par. Bathroom is dirty, multiple ADA violations. A physically challenged person almost fell walking out of the hostess station. Restroom was filthy, not up to COVID standards. read more

Server, Daniel, was very attentive and provided excellent customer service! I loved the fajita quesadilla, the chicken was grilled perfectly, tasty and all the vegetables and flavors made this an amazing experience. My husband had the taco salad and maybe because it was next to my dish, it was good but lacked flavor. We were pleasantly surprised with how good this restaurant was! Also, margaritas are huge and there are lots of flavors. Highly recommend this restaurant. read more

My bestie and I visited Arribas for Taco Tuesday! We arrived around happy hour (3pm) and ordered the 12oz margaritas for $1.99 and the Tuesday special which is 2 tacos with a side of rice and beans for $5 The food was very good! The tacos were delicious and so was the rice and I'm usually one to be picky about my rice. The beans I didn't care to much for but prior to entree they serve chips with salsa and some sort of bean dip which I did love. The margaritas were pretty strong and I normally drink strong liquor. After 2 12oz margaritas I felt buzzed already. We sat at the bar section and it wasn't busy at all and servers walking around everywhere. Our server was sitting behind us in the booth talking to someone. She left our bill on the table when I still had a full glass of margarita left and still my platter on the table, I didn't appreciate that read more

We have frequented Arribas often over the years and have always found it to be good. They have a little bit of a different take on Mexican food than other restaurants in the Valley. With their main ingredient in most of their dishes being green chili's, it is more of a Nee Mexican style than a old fashioned Mexican food style. This is fine with me as I like my food a little bit spicy. My wife and I split their green mixed burro lunch special. We also added their queso fundido to the top of it. Their queso is what really makes the spice of the dish . Another one of my favorite dishes to eat here is the white sands chimichanga. It is one of their more spicier dishes in the menu but it is really delicious. Before your meal you can also enjoy their bean dip and salsa. I have always liked their salsa but their bean dip is hit or miss to me. It is either great or it is really bland and lacking any spice. Either way, I would recommend trying this place out and see if you like it. read more

I always order the Chile Relleno when I go to Arribas. They were always Fantastic! They must have replaced their cooks because after what I just "tried" to eat I will never eat there again!!!! I struggled to find the Chile relleno under at least an inch of hatch chiles which took away the flavor and I was unable to eat it. They did not care. After paying almost $19.00 for my entre I will chalk it up to experience and NEVER go there again. Don't worry, I will tell all my friends and family to beware. What has happened to the restaurants since Covid? read more

Was pretty disappointed with my take out experience. Had to repeat myself multiple times for a simple order over the phone. Asked for a chimichanga with sour cream sauce. Was told fundido was the only option. It was a strange cheese whiz type sauce along with an odd brown sauce. Very slow response at pickup and no other customers. Best part was the chicken inside the chimichanga- it was fresh and flavorful. Don't see myself returning. read more

Food was good, not great. We ordered a side of hatch chilies, which were nice and hot. Unfortunately, the service was very slow. Our appetizer came out reasonably fast but the waiter didn't ask if we wanted another drink and it had been a while so we were just happy to get some food. Then we waited 30+ minutes for our entre and the server never checked on us, refilled our water or asked my husband if he wanted another drink. It was his birthday so I was extra disappointed. AND he forgot to bring us extra napkins after we asked... read more

Had a reservation at another nearby restaurant for 20 people but once we got there they said they didn't have it after waiting 45 min we called arribas and the manager said come on in...within 20 min tables were put together on the patio for us ...Hector our server was quick and friendly on getting drinks out to us and kept chips and salsa and beans full at all times ....all our food came out at once fresh and hot !!! Our friends had never been there and they all loved it. .the manager armando came several times to check if anyone needed anything as well as hector ....I highly recommend this place as the food is always good...I know it's not easy to take a party of 20 ( 11 kids) when your not expecting it but they did it with smiles ...I get the pollo con queso with ground beef is my favorite ...thanks again for a great experience! read more

Been here 3 times and every time the customer service gets worse. Will never be returning. Would give negative stars if possible. Good food will always be ruined by poor customer service, and rude wait staff. read more

Happy hour after 9pm with 99 cent margaritas and half off appetizers is what brought us in to this restaurant after Glendale Glitters. Waiter was an ass but warmed up to us after a bit. The flaming queso dip was again; not real cheese. What is it with restaurant trying to pass off processed cheese food with spice and call it queso. I would much rather pay more for the good stuff than order something like this crap. The rest of the meals and dishes were great. Pretty over priced for what we got, but it was tasty. read more

Management Complaint - RUDE to me.... Long time Patron at Arrowhead Arriba's I am writing this because of a great concern that happened to me on Wednesday January 31. I been a regular bar patron at Arriba's Arrowhead for 16 years, average 1-3 times per week. I always sit at the bar in the same location and have brought in many, many friends. In my 16 years there, all the management, bar staff, wait staff and all the staff in general, have treated me like family, because to me, they are an extended part of my family.. But lately, things have dramatically changed with the new Manager, Sarah, from the Camelback Location. Many of us for years come in on "Joaquin Wednesday" to have Joaquin serve us behind the bar. This all started when we all come in for Joaquin Wednesday and Sarah pulled Joaquin from behind the bar and replaced him with Arturo, from Camelback. I spoke to her and told her that we all come in to see Joaquin and have for many years. She responded to me "I am making changes". I told her if Joaquin was not behind the bar when we all came in, many of us regulars would not stay. Since then, she has been noticeably rude to not only the staff but to many of us regular customers. I have heard it several times. It was on Wednesday the 31st I was talking to my boyfriend, sitting beside me at the bar, Dave Sugino, that has been in there a few times. We were having private conversation. The new manager came up behind me, hearing my conversation, and was totally disrespectful, speaking to me in the manner she did. The staff as well as many patrons heard her conversation. She basically said to me that "I could leave" and much, much more because I had voiced my concerns to my boyfriend - not her! It was insulting. In my defense, my boyfriend, as well as another longtime patron, Dave, spoke up and told her she was out of line and should not be talking to a guest in that manner, especially someone that has been coming in there for years, to see Joaquin on Wednesday. I have not written a bad review of the restaurant, because it is not anyone's fault but the Management, but I will think long and hard before I return to give my business to a manager that does not appreciate regular customers that have supported that restaurant for years. She owes me an apology, for sure. I asked people I know in the corporate Arriba's that this be addressed and I wanted an apology. It has now been 2 weeks - no apology, no phone call, so I will think long and hard before going back and many, many of my friends, as well. Peggy Luna psuedunn@cox.net read more

New Mexico-style Mexican cuisine at this restaurant is 100% amazing! Service was exceptional. Beverages, chips, and dips were always kept topped off for us. Main course portions were generous. I definitely recommend this place! read more

Food is fabulous. Old style Arizona Mexican food and one of the few places where you can still find a real Arizona cheese crisp. Have eaten here a few times over the last few months and the service has always been fantastic. Love this place! read more

Stopped in yesterday while killing time before my fiancé came back home and was tired of leftovers. I have never been and everywhere else was too busy, so I stopped in and took a seat at the bar. The food was great, super large portions! But the real reason I'm leaving a review is the service I received. I may get her name wrong, I think it was Venessa or Veronica, but she was great! As a prior bartender I've worked many Christmases, and it does suck. But she was so friendly, accommodating, and had a smile the whole time. Will definitely be going back! read more
