The food here is excellent and has become my wife's and my favorite Mexican food in Holland. The service on the other hand is VERY hit or miss. The two waiters have been our best experience while the waitresses seem more interested in talking with each other rather than servicing their tables. It was so bad this time, we were seated and nobody came to take our drink or food order. I finally waived down a waiter to help us. I would think with food of this caliber, this restaurant would be packed all the time. But with service this inconsistent is likely holding them back. Hopefully the manager will see this and do some training. read more

Iv been here several times and Iv never had any issues. Foods always been good, fresh, with good prices.

Terrible service. didnt check on us once. then proceeded to switch me and my friends bill. After that, she claimed she couldn't void it so we argued and then she FINALLY got her manager who was sleeping in his car. Her name was Kelly R. read more

Food is great and so is the service. I'm new to the area and am used to having authentic Mexican in south west Detroit and this place is a breathe of fresh air. read more

We ordered the steak taco dinner, which came with rice and beans. Overall, the portions were generous, especially for the price, but there were a few things that could've been better. The steak tacos were decent in flavor but a bit greasy. One issue was that they layered the taco tortillas on top of the beans, which made them messy and harder to eat. The rice, on the other hand, was excellent--great flavor and cooked perfectly. A small heads-up, the plates are served very hot. While this keeps the food warm longer, it also made it hard to enjoy the meal right away without risking a burned hand or mouth. On a positive note, service was super quick--our food and drinks came out almost immediately. However, drink prices seemed a little steep compared to similar places. It's not a bad spot overall, but there are a few things they could tweak to make the experience better. read more

My local friends have recommended this place for a long time and I ordered take out recently and really enjoyed it! From the outside it seems pretty small but when I walked in, it was quite large with plenty of open seating and seems clean and decorated nicely. I walked to the counter and someone helped me right away and grabbed a menu for me to look at. They have SO much food it was a bit overwhelming but also exciting at the same time. I ordered two shrimp tacos, a cheese quesadilla, and horchata. The shrimp tacos were authentic with chopped onions and cilantro and hands down some of the best tacos I've had in a while. The cheese quesadilla was very delicious and perfectly melty. The horchata was in a huge cup and totally hit the spot! Love that drink so much. They also packed my food along with some complimentary tortilla chips and three types of salsa. Definitely way too kind of them:) This meal was all under $20 and very tasty. I will 100% come back for more takeout but would like to come again and sit down and enjoy something there someday. I would recommend these tacos to anyone:) Definitely see why my friends like it so much. read more

I started this journey slower than normal. I started out visiting the bar for a margarita. The Ultimate Margarita! Three tequilas, Cointreau and other stuff. NOT a frozen drink. On the rocks with salted rim. It was so delicious I had another. Had to. Guacamole, salsa, and chip are great too. Next weekend I dropped back in for another Ultimate Margarita. Exactly what I remembered, under the circumstances of my last visit. March 5 I went back for dinner. I ordered the flautas, one of each, shredded chicken, pork, and barbacoa. The platter came with rice, refried beans, and lettuce pico guac salad. 5 extra stars for this meal. Best flautas I can ever remember having. I didn't have any margaritas this visit . Service was kind and efficient and the establishment is very new, clean, and comfortable. This is a keeper. read more

We really enjoyed our dinner here. Great deal on the combo dinners. We enjoyed the al pastor and carne asada tacos. We have high expectations for beans and these were delicious. The carnitas were also so tasty - crispy and tender - really could tell they were made with love and attention. The red sauce on the enchiladas wasn't our favorite but there are other enchilada options I'd be up to try. And just come here for the art and decor - we felt like we were back in Mexico. Someone here is quite an artist. Even the bathroom was beautiful. read more

This is absolutely not Tex-Mex food. It's just bad Mexican food. The guacamole tasted terrible and doesn't seem to be made with fresh avocados (tastes like avocado substitute). The pastor taco had zero flavor and the pineapple was right out of a can - not grilled. Shrimp taco was too salty to eat. read more

The quesadillas are a joke. How can you mess up a cheese quesadilla. & they couldn't even make 2 sunny side up eggs. Not to mention the lbs. of salt they used on their version of sunny side up (scrambled) eggs. I don't know how people are ratting them 5 stars. They must be related or getting paid. Save your self & go to Taco Bell. read more

Service was prompt and pleasant. Nice space in a newer building. Chips and Salsa was OK. Lunch portion chimichanga is EXTREMELY small. Similarly priced compared to a dinner portion at other restaurants. Good amount of meat but fairly bland overall. Next time I'm in Holland and craving Mexican I'll likely try another option instead. read more

We stopped in here after a long day of vacationing ready to eat some great Mexican and this place really delivered! The fajitas were the best we have ever had and the tacos were phenomenal! I can't recommend the food enough. Our waiter was also very attentive. Thanks for a great meal guys! read more

This place is amazing!! To start off, the food tastes great. The service is ridiculously fast and the ambiance is great all around. I would definitely recommend this place and eat here again. read more

We were on our way to the beach and saw this restaurant. Went in and the decor was great and it wasn't busy. Once we ordered our food it came out before I could get through the drink menu (which also looked good with reasonable prices). I got the quesadilla loco which was delicious. I look forward to going back. read more

Very average. Ordered vegetarian taco and fajita and both tasted exactly the same. Forgot to bring the drink ordered. Burrito was good though and the salad was very flavorful. read more

Our favorite Mexican in Holland. Good quality food and friendly staff. Full bar too! read more

The best tacos and service in town. We go with my parents every time they are in town! Haven't found a single thing we do not like. I really like the sopes! Tinga might sound like a boring choice, but is absolutely delicious, flavorful, and moist. read more

Place seems to have just opened up. Pretty large space with plenty of seating. Food is clearly authentic. Traditional Mexican/Hispanic menu items as well as some American modified items for the less cavalier. Look, good and authentic Mexican food is a staple of the Holland experience. And everybody has their favorite place to go. And while you'll likely get into arguments with co-workers over which place is better, you should just know that Taquiera Arandas is in that top tier of Holland Mexican options. Very wide selection of meats and combo options. Very good portions and reasonably priced. There may be some shops that are cheaper around town but they aren't going to necessarily be better. I may not frequent Arandas because of the many options in Holland, but I will absolutely continue to share about how great my first experience was and I will definitely be back. read more

Good food and service. I liked the carne asada street tacos. Apparently the name refers to a style of Mexican cooking.

This crew has it figured out Great service, great food, prompt and consistent. Nice work!

Definitely not Mexican food it's more American/mexican the milanesa is a fryed batard chicken not beef never herd of chicken milanesa $13 it's. better to go Wendy's get more for your money. read more

Food was served quickly and hot. You know hot not cold which is never good for dishes that are supposed to be hot.

Good Mexican food that draws a crowd....along with a well stocked grocery store if your looking to make your own Mexican dish at home. Would recommend a visit. It's a bit confusing going in for the first time but once you realize where to place a carry out order, you should be all set. read more

employees are always friendly. food is always hot and delicious. the hot and spicy burrito is always delicious. restaurant looks great and is a wonderful spot to hang out with friends with a bar many seating options. read more

I visited this restaurant for the first time and all three meals we ordered were excellent and so was the service. You can't tell from the outside what a charming place it is or what an extensive and authentic menu they have, and the prices are reasonable. read more

Fried ice cream is great. I ordered a enchilada trio meal. Rice was good, but everything else was very average. I wouldn't personally consider it authentic Mexican. Salsa for chips is a mild tomato sauce read more

Our go-to for authentic Mexican food! The food is consistently delicious and reasonably priced. They're creative with their speciality drinks, too! And the service is quick and attentive without being overbearing. read more

The food is good, hot, fresh, I am never disappointed. Try the carnitas tacos and chicken flautas they're delicious I'm getting hungry just thinking about them. read more

This is a great place that seems relatively new. They have a wide selection of meats; we tried the carnitas on nachos and carne asada and tinga on tacos. All were very good, especially the tinga. I am consistently saddened that no one in Michigan seems to know about Tapatio but I can forgive this if a place has homemade salsa that's good. And the hot salsa here is SO GOOD. I kind of wish I'd tried the extra hot but I didn't see it until after I finished eating. The beans and rice were fine; I'd probably get three tacos for $5 deal on a Monday instead of adding rice and beans for an extra $1.99. I liked that I could choose between flour and corn tortillas. I tried one taco with flour and while it was good, the corn is better. Bear in mind that I am naturally biased against corn tacos and that's pretty high praise. I'd absolutely come back here next time I'm in Holland. read more

This is an excellent authentic Mexican restaurant in Holland, on Douglas and River. We just went for the first time. I had the Shrimp ceviche dish that was fresh, great portion size and delicious! My husband had the Chimichanga (chicken) and it was fabulous - perfect seasoning, the rice was exceptional and the toppings were fresh. We also had a couple of margaritas, which were good too. We met the manager, Francisco, who was happy we were there and so proud of the restaurant, sharing that they were going to add live music soon! I highly recommend this place!! We'll sure be back! read more

Walked in and was quickly seated. Watched 5 staff members walk by without once asking what I'd like to drink. Finally after 10 minutes my waiter came over took my drink order. Brought the chips n salsa. Came back to take my order. Brought my food it was completely wrong. Asked for it to be remade. Btw the soda never got refilled until the remake was served. It came back wrong as well. I am so done with this place. read more

Our family loves Mexican food!. We were in Holland for a swim meet and spotted this new restaurant on our way there. Leaving the meet hungry and tired, the food here sure hit the spot! The ordering process reminded me of Qdoba. We were the only people in the restaurant (about 3pm in the afternoon so I am unsure how busy it gets during peak times). We had our food in a few minutes and everything was fabulous (Qdoba can't compare to this!)! My husband had the 3 taco combo, trying 3 different meats (pork, chorizo and steak). He was very happy with all three and wants to come back soon. I had the chicken, steak and shrimp burrito with sautéed veggies- awesome as well!!! I was stuffed but ate it all! Our 11 year olds liked their kids meals as well, one taco and one enchilada (both got the ground beef taco meat) - no complaints. Both of them had left over refried beans and rice, so there was plenty of food for them. Highly recommend you try this out!! read more
