My husband and I stopped by Los Arcos for a nice intimate dinner. The restaurant is located near the highway with ample parking. There's an outdoor patio area that was not in use when we went but would have been lovely for a nice cool evening. The interior has an old school feel to it. Our waitress was friendly but wasn't the most knowledgeable and our silverware was a dirty. We were also greeted by a very charming older man who was full of life! I really wished I could rate this place higher but my steak was overcooked and bland and my husband said his was just ok. We'd really like to give this place another chance so will stop by again next time we're in town! read more

Great food, great service, great atmosphere. This place is a gem. I rarely do 5 stars but they deserve it. They work hard as a team.

Homemade Hawaiian bread brought to table with butter. Yum and soft and fresh. We had a salad and soup (green chili chicken chowder). Sake was fresh and soup was perfect with a great balance of all the ingredients. Salmon special was what my husband had. Salmon was perfectly cooked. He had broccolini and a loaded bake potato. Excellent. My 18 oz. Prime rib was perfectly cooked with a nice seasoning. I had broccolini and sautéed mushrooms that came with the dinner. My steak had a huge portion of spinalis-perhaps the largest I've ever had at a restaurant, and I've been to Ruth's Chris and Fleming's, etc. Tender and delicious. We split the apple wonton dessert which was perfect. I'm glad my husband can help finish my order! Plentiful! Highly recommend this long-standing establishment. Clean and friendly and good service! read more

Los Arcos Steak & Lobster - Salmon special - Steakhouses Near Me - Truth Or Consequences, New Mexico

How have I been coming back to Hot Springs since my great-grandparents soaked here after every cotton season-and only now discovered Los Arcos? This place is a true destination restaurant: authentic, delicious, and full of history. The owner, Bobby, a local, still oversees everything after 56 years. Don't miss this and come hungry! read more

I stopped overnight in Truth or Consequences on my way to visit my parents south of Tucson, coming from Denver. I wanted something simple like a non-fast-food burger and fries for dinner. The very pleasant beertender at T or C Brewing suggested A & B Drive In, but it was closed at about 6:00 on Saturday evening, July 5, so I drove around looking for somewhere else to eat. I pulled in to Los Arcos and was seated promptly at a corner table. I ordered a beer, the Fried Jalapenos appetizer, and Seasoned Chicken with a baked potato from my pleasant but apparently disinterested waitress. The sliced, fried jalapeno appetizer was fine if a little overdone. My guess is they use mild rather than spicy jalapenos, as there was not much heat to them. The chicken was OK, but quite bland and surprisingly tough - broiled chicken is usually tender, this wasn't. The baked potato was a baked potato, nothing special. This place has some very high prices for what I consider OK food. I chose one of the least expensive items on the menu and it still cost me more than $60 with a tip. If I return to Truth or Consequences, I probably won't return to Los Arcos unless I can't find anything else other than fast food. read more

A gem in a small city. We decided to go up to T or C to enjoy the hot springs for our 13th anniversary and picked the only spot that had lobster on the menu. I'm glad we did. The ambiance is old school 70s restaurant, but the food and the one selection is excellent. Our server was awesome and the owner/manager went to EVERY table and said hi. I highly recommend read more

This is such a great place in the heart of the ghetto corner of central and Louisiana. After a day at the races it was delicious and the staff was fast and friendly. It's worth the stop!! read more

We were on our way north to Socorro for the night, and were getting hungry, so we stopped in T or C and were glad we did. On arrival, we found that there was a 60-minute wait for a table for two, and we were about to leave when the manager suggested we sit in the bar/patio area. He said the menu is lighter but there's immediate seating, so we gave it a try. There was plenty of substantial food on the bar menu. My partner ordered the green chile cheeseburger, a New Mexico staple, while I chose the 1/3-rack of baby back ribs. Her order of fries was large enough for both of us to share, and they were deliciously beer-battered and lightly salted for a crunchy exterior and just-tender inside. The ribs were meaty, and four of them were plenty along with the fries. The mesquite smoke gave them a Texas twang, and the orange-zested BBQ sauce was pleasantly different. The burger, though, stole the show, with a flame-grilled smoke flavor to the meat and perfectly chosen and applied layers of cheese, green chile, tomato, and toasted bun. Plenty of restaurants just slap on some chile and call it a day, but this kitchen does it right. Definitely would go back on another visit. read more

I was driving from Albuquerque to Las Cruces. It was getting dark and I would not have made dinner with my friends so I figured why not. I popped into Los Arcos in Truth or Consequences. This is an old building and the interior remains period specific and it appears to be a local favorite. I sat in the bar. The entire place reminded me of a brat pack era Vegas steakhouse. Service was good. Prices seemed high like a top notch steakhouse. I ordered the Los Arcos Chicken. A chicken breast grilled and covered with an Oscar side of sauce and crab meat. It came with a loaded baked potato, and broccoli. Now the not so great, the broccoli was way overcooked and bland. The chicken dish had good flavor, but the chicken was overcooked as well. At least I can say I have eaten in Truth or Consequences. read more

Not much in T or C, but this restaurant is a standout. The special was a large rib eye steak which my husband and I shared. Plenty for two. Highly recommend this place. Only downside was a table with many screaming kids bit the restaurant accommodated us with a quieter table. Another +. read more

It was our first visit to Los Arcos. The parking lot was packed and now we know why. It's good! We both had steaks, and the oyster Rockefeller. Enjoyed both. Our steaks were perfectly cooked and we felt as though the steak quality and portion size were correct for the price. Beef prices are crazy high these days, so if you are going to order a steak, might as well be a good one, and this place didn't disappoint. Ambience was nice in the restaurant and the bar area was also great. Our waiter did a nice job and service was right on point. No complaints and I hope to return again soon. read more

Los Arcos Steak & Lobster - Oyster Rockefeller. - Steakhouses Near Me - Truth Or Consequences, New Mexico

I wish I could give a 3.5. The upside here is that this is open relatively late for a small town and the steaks were good. The downside was the lack of care with wine attentiveness and the glasses were not clean enough (water marks). My filet with green chilis and mornay was good but for the price I expected more. This is the most expensive steak on the menu and from what I could tell broccolini instead of broccoli was the upgrade. The ribeye was overcooked and the excuse was "it's the end of the day." That said staff was friendly and I was grateful to have a nice meal after 8pm in a small town. read more

Marisol G. is a theif. She pocketed $50 cash that was mentioned to be split with a debit card. She charged my card the full amount and kept the cash. She left dirty plates on our table, and did not know what the soup of the day was. Perhaps she figured the $50 was her tip? Poor Marisol appeared very pregnant, why does she need to steal from her customers? Los Arcos, please keep this server away from the cash register....and teach her to at least apologize when she gets caught stealing money. read more

I've been going here for 20 plus years. Each time is great, the steaks are amazing. The service is top notch. The dining room waiters are exceptional and the bar staff are friendly and top notch. I will keep coming back every time I'm in town. read more

Upon arriving we were seated in a small dark corner by the host who proceeded to mumble the specials so quiet we had to ask the server what they were again. The bread seemed to consist of hamburger buns from Walmart followed the water that tasted like it came from the nearby Lake. Upon waiting way too long for what seemed to be microwaved food it finally came and consisted of zero seasoning. It is by far the most bland food I have ever tasted. Should have just gone to the store and made sandwiches and they would have been more flavorful. Would not recommend this place to anyone. read more

Not many options in T or C. This place has an old school feel with amazing service. Portions are large and it's totally worth it. Will go again. read more

The service was good. Our server brought us a complimentary appetizer because of the wait for our food. The food was good, about what you would expect for a steakhouse. I do have to say, it's very loud in the restaurant. Not a bad thing, because it's a small town steakhouse where everyone knows everyone, but just letting my fellow introverts know. It was a little over stimulating! Also if you're on the wait list, they will call you. If you don't immediately answer, they will skip you. read more

Los Arcos Steak & Lobster - Fettuccine with Chicken and Petite Sirloin - Steakhouses Near Me - Truth Or Consequences, New Mexico

After a relaxing visit to River Bend Hot Springs, we stopped by this neat little steakhouse. From the outside--and even the dated interior--you wouldn't guess it, but it's actually a bit of an upscale spot. Think $65 for an 18oz prime rib and $45 (market price) for an 8oz lobster tail. I couldn't quite justify the lobster, so I went with the prime rib. It came with a baked potato (or rice pilaf), broccolini, and a choice of soup or salad. I chose the clam chowder. The good: the prime rib and baked potato were quite good. The broccolini was also nicely done, though the butter sauce it came with (possibly hollandaise?) had an odd taste--next time I'd ask for it on the side. A highlight was the owner, a charming older gentleman, who greeted us during the meal. His friendliness really stood out and added a personal touch. The not-so-good: the clam chowder was a miss--bland and unremarkable despite a generous portion. I'd go with the salad next time. Overall, it's a charming little spot, and a decent option if you're in Truth or Consequences and up for a splurge. That said, for the price point, I'm not sure I'd rush back. It wasn't a particularly bad experience--just a bit expensive for what you get. read more

All I want to say I said this was the best freaking Ribeye I have ever had in my entire life. 18 ounces $52.00. I'm taking the rest back to my hotel. Marisol was an excellent server. Like I always tell my son if it's a seafood restaurant don't order the chicken.It's a steakhouse order the steak. read more

Superb service! I have been there three times and their service is outstanding! They are always checking that everything was cooked perfect!

The wife and I were in T or C for a few days in the hot springs and had heard all 'round town how good Los Arcos was. They were right! We went Saturday night w/o reservations because they don't take them. When we arrived, we were told it would be 30 minutes but no, we barely had a beverage in the bar when we were called to the dining room. The special was rib eye and it was the greatest I have ever had. The staff was spot on with the service and the final coup was the crème brute, outstanding!!! read more

Open late eats while we're on our trip in Truth or Consequences. GREAT service. Cute bar, with large selection of bar food. Good hot fudge sundae & wine read more

We've loved the food here, we stop by on our way to El Paso from ABQ, which is often. However last night we ordered a Cesar salad that was unacceptable, it had zero flavor. We asked our server if it was made in house and she proudly said, yes. We gave her our feedback and said she'd notify the kitchen. Never asked if we wanted something else and we didn't request it. We'll be back because everything else ( steak and prawns) were delicious! Hopefully they'll improve their dressing. read more

Prices are outrageously high. For $19.99 I had the seasoned chicken. That item was the least expensive thing on the menu. Sad to say the chicken was dry and overcooked. If my wife and I are in Truth or Consequences next year, we will not eat at Los Arcos Steak & Lobster read more

This is a great place to dine. The staff, atmosphere and the food are the best. Bobby, the owner, comes around and is interested in hearing about your experience. The steaks and lobster are the bomb. Their Caesar salad dressing is the real thing. They also have a good wine selection. read more

Delicious food. I am still working my way through the menu to try everythi g. Nothing has disappointed me. Their prime rib, shrimp and chicken shishkabob, beef shishkabob, steak salad, ribs, BBQ chicken, fettuccine with shrimp is delicious. Their baked potatoes are also divine. The bar serves excellent drinks...no stinginess or watered down drinks here. The decor is very unique retro with arches. The bar is also a fun place to mingle and eat. The staff are each and everyone warm and friendly. I look forward to seeing them. The desserts are also delicious...the best mud pie ever. read more

Very happy with our visit and will be back. Just over $100 to feed a family of 4. My kids split the shrimp Alfredo, delicious.

Great service. Welcoming, family friendly atmosphere. read more

Great service, nice means we drive through town. Sirloin tasty and perfectly cooked. Yummy cauliflower bites

The steak was just about perfect. The salad was fresh. My wife loved the fish. The server didn't miss a thing. We got there early on a Tuesday and didn't have to wait at all for a table. We will be stopping there again whenever we're in T or C. read more

Los Arcos Steak & Lobster - Steakhouses Near Me - Truth Or Consequences, New Mexico

Was excited to go eat at Los Arcos after a long day at the lake. Was meeting a bunch of friends and wanted some good food. One of the waiters was so rude and disrespectful. I have never been treated so poorly for no reason. We left immediately. The food is actually very good but the service could use a lot of work. I personally, will never go back. Would recommend Big Foot and the Golf Course, if you want to be treated well. read more

From the time we walked in to the time we were seated, we were greeted with nothing but smiles. The owner, Bobby, took the time to say hello, get to know us, and even sat and chatted with us multiple times. He was absolutely adorable and so kind and personable. We felt as though we were old friends catching up. The food was incredible and delicious. 6 stars out of 5! The steaks were melt in your mouth incredible and cooked to perfection and the charbroiled prawns were like lobster. Desserts were fresh made in-house and tasted like Grandma's. If you're looking for a one-of-a-kind dining experience in southern New Mexico, this is the only place you should consider. If you're looking for a place to impress that special person in your life, look no further! Thank you Bobby and "family" for an amazing experience! Can't wait until the next time we're in town because this will be our first stop for food! P.S. If you can sit outside, the view is the cherry in top! read more

Los Arcos Steak & Lobster - Breathtaking patio view at sunset - Steakhouses Near Me - Truth Or Consequences, New Mexico

Visited 2/21/2020 Stopped here for a birthday cocktail and some munchies. For this town this is the only game in town. Nice place where the locals hang out on Friday Night. Small bar where that has a bar menu and full service. Cocktails were weak compared to California standards but like I said there are no other choices. Looks like a nice steakhouse but the bar area was very loud. I have to give this place a 3 1/2 Star Rating based on the bar, weak cocktails and appetizers tried alone. read more

The restaurant is hit or miss in the details. The salad dressings are lame in selection. These choices can be had at the local diner, and they are NOT made on premise. Well, unless high-fructose syrup or starch is a vogue ingredient. My Caesar salad was swimming in dressing. Order it on the side so you can decide. I ordered a zero-beer. Not in stock. My companion ordered a desert that is evidently a staple or signature item. Not in stock. Who is doing inventory management? Our friend ordered a steak of some note @ a princely sum. It was perfection. The vegetables were in a Mornay sauce which was simple but delicious. The impetus for this review was not the food as much as the staff is not trained in fine dining, nor do they tend to know the product that they are selling. read more

Service was wonderful. A very nice restaurant. I don't eat meat so had the green chili Alfredo with shrimp. Very good.
