Terrible, the "queso" is just Ricos nacho cheese, the quesadillas are on flat bread not tortillas and smaller than my hand, the beef has zero flavor. Street tacos are bugger, complete waste of my money. If you're used to the Taqueria Amanda's in Houston don't come here, you'll leave disappointed. read more

Taqueria Arandas - Beef quesadilla - Mexican Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

We just wanted a quick bite nearby, so we tried this place. We usually cut family-owned spots some slack, and we did today too. No one greeted us, so we sat ourselves. Someone brought menus, we ordered, the food came, and then...nothing. The server vanished. The food wasn't great either; the rice tasted totally processed. The service was awful - no drink refills, no bill. We paid at the counter and left. read more

I'm picky with my breakfast tacos and most of the places in Alamo ranch have been missing the mark, Taqueria Arandas hit it with the chorizo and egg! You know the taco is going to be good when the grease is spilling out the wrapper! husband said the food was a little salty which I agree but personally it wasn't overwhelming and it was fine for me. Service was quick and we did the drive through both times we went, there was a long line when we pulled up but I was pleasantly surprised with how fast they were at getting orders out! read more

So I remembered why we hadn't been there in over 2 years. Ordered the fajitas a la plancha plates. I asked the waitress if the beef fajitas were in big pieces like in the menu photo, she said yes. WRONG! The fajitas were small, curled up, barely warm pieces of meat. No taste at all and tasted old. My plate arrived 4 minutes after ordering which tells me that they were just been kept warm. Barely any onions or bell pepper. So I remembered why..bad old, no taste food. NEVER AGAIN. Just been honest. 8/20/25 13:56 hrs, order #600070 read more

Hands down the best carne guisada and beef fajita tacos. I think I come here every other weeks lol!

The food is so good with lots of flavors and always hot. Large portions always taking something home. Love their salsa but can be spicy at times great service fast read more

Tacos were ok but shells were soggy with grease. Meat didn't taste like it was cooked throughout. Won't be back.

The food was okay we ordered a two tortas, large menudo, pork chop breakfast plate, and Huevos rancheros. The Menudo was stinky and lacking in flavor. The pork chop was small, and everything else was just okay. The waiter was slow to take our order and serve us, and it was slow. The restaurant is clean and colorful wouldn't go back but glad I gave it a try read more

Taqueria Arandas is a great lunch spot. I enjoyed the Super Nachos and a Vamperito Margarita. I will say that the chips used for my nachos were much better than the chips and salsa brought to the table as you sat down. Service was excellent, we never waited for a thing. The location is in a shopping center, the dining area is bright and clean. There wasn't too much noise and the music was at a volume you could still hear conversation. Nice little spot with good food and friendly service. read more

Nice place, has drive thru. Had Bacon and Egg tacos and they were great! Will come again for dinner sometime. read more

Service was a 10 staff were knowledgeable and quick , my plate was ready and another server saw it was ready and brought it to me rite then. We like eggs cooked Med an theirs were perfect. I never use the p" word but eggs,papas,+ barbacoa were perfect. Potato's we're fried chrisp and refried beans were truly refried , no cans here. Facility was clean inside and out. First time to this location and we will come back. Keep it up guys!!! read more

Service is quick with smiling staff. The place is squeaky clean with iconic Salsa music to enjoy while eating my obligatory morning oatmeal. The bowl is moderate minus the raisins, nuts and small serving of honey. The texture of the oatmeal is excellent, not soggy, or watery-- just like grandma use to make. Would recommend wheat toast instead of white bread as options. Starbucks steel-oats oatmeal beats them for the price with nuts, cinnamon, blueberries, cranberries and agave for a dollar less. read more

Please do not go to this location. Employees and cooks are very irresponsible and rude to the clientele. I ordered a chalupa plate for $7.99 and I got tostadas with been and cheese. Like ... really!!?? I can make those myself and it can cost me a lot less than $7.99 First, they took 30 min to take care of me through the drive thru window. Only 2 cars where in front of me Second the lady at the window (very moody!) charged me wrong $4.32 more and she had to do a refund and charge me again. That I didn't mind. But when I got home I was so mad when I opened my plates. I ordered mini taquitos that were ok I guess. And then when I saw the "chalupas plate" I was so furious. I called the place and they told me to go get the lettuce, tomato and sour cream. She also told me that i can go get it tomorrow if I couldn't today., wow... what a slap on the face! No one ever said "I apologize" or at least have some type of sympathy because of their mistake. I spoke to a waitress and I asked to speak to the manager and the manager never made it out of the bathroom! What a coincidence. the lady on the phone told me I could go return the chalupas and get new ones ... Wow ohh my GOD Seriously I was out of work so tired the last thing I wanted was to go back and waste another 45 min of my life. Chalupas were for my son, we ended up eating cereal. I just threw $30 dollars out the window. The lady in the drive thru line in front of me was mad and was also complaining I wonder why. Never ever ever again i would go to this place. Save yourself disappointed and keep your money. I hope the owner gets this message. He needs to hire a better team. Like ASAP! read more

SECOND TIME ORDERING FOR DELIVERY! Food order through and delivered by Grubhub. I have no complaints about delivery. This is my second time ordering soup from this place and the restaurant got my order wrong this round. I ordered the Caldo de Pollo since I tried the Caldo de Res last time. Well, I got the beef soup again. Which is a bummer becs I didn't care for it the first time. Meat quality so very poor, fatty, large piece of bone that only takes up the space in your bowl. Would like to dine in next time and try something else. Corn tortillas appear to be handmade but I did not care for them at all. Smell of the corn masa is strong and off-putting. Very thick as pillowy, if you like that. Hoping they redeem themselves to me at my next visit. We need good, authentic Mexican food here in my area of San Antonio. And although that statement usually offends other TX locals, it's true. "Tex-Mex" is not authentic Mexican grub and shouldn't be confused with the latter. And there's NOTHING with that. Tex-Mex is good, too, if that's what you're craving but please! For the love of La Virgen, acknowledge there is a huge difference. I'm glad there are menus popping up, like Taqueria Arandas", that offer some foods that are hard to find in my area like the soups. Now... if I can only find some Champurrado this season. read more

Great food. Great service. Waitresses are kind and patient. Even in a busy restaurant they are friendly and fast. The food is what you would expect from a quality restaurant. I've been coming here since I was a kid- never failed me! read more

Let me start off by saying, this place gives me nostalgia. I used to live closer to the original location on Military but since I moved out towards Alamo Ranch, this location is closer. The atmosphere is great, it's always VERY clean, they have TV's with their specials and you are always greeted. You seat yourself and the waiters come to you. The staff are always very friendly and they even give you opinions on what they feel is their favorite choice on the menu, which I have asked before. When receiving my food it is always super hot and flavorful! The enchiladas are always fresh and the tacos are always fresh. My go to is the quesadilla plate with corn tortillas substitution! Trust me you will NOT be disappointed. Over all some reviews are not truly about the food which that is why everyone comes, look at some photos I have posted and you can understand the food quality! anyways, try it out and give it a chance! read more

If I could, I would give them zero stars for their customer service. Rude. Disrespectful. First time I went through the drive-through I ordered a bacon and egg taco not mixed. My order was incorrect so I went inside to get my taco fixed. I assumed at no charge because it was their fault. They wanted to charge me for their mistake not hearing me clearly in the drive-through order. I told him I was not going to pay extra for their mistake. I went back again through the drive-through ordered the same taco, bacon, and egg not mixed. At the window I asked the very rude lady if my taco was not mixed, she said yes, and very ugly snatched the receipt out of my hand with force. She needs to work on customer service if they want to keep their customers coming back to their restaurant. You don't treat your customers rude and disrespectful. We will never go back to that restaurant or any of their chain restaurants ever again because of the rudeness and the disrespect that we were treated with. read more

Delicious flavors. Worth the price and wait! My new neighborhood go to for tacos or tortilla soup.

I came here due to the convenience of a drive thru, I waited forever. I almost left but stuck it out and I'm glad I did. The carne guisada is the good and the best that I have found off potranco and 1604. I have been back and so far I have been pleased with the food. The only thing is the wait time. read more

Went for the first time this weekend. We got a little bit of everything from the breakfast menu. Tacos had a lot of food in them. Tortillas(flour) tasted good but I wasn't expecting the chilaquiles to look like this. They didn't taste bad which was great but probably wouldn't order it again. Pancakes were huge bacon was a bit too crispy. It gets loud in the restaurant. Our server was okay she wasn't the friendliest but didn't really mind it was full when we went so maybe that's why. Might return to try out their lunch/dinner menu. read more

I've never been here before so I ordered the carne guisada plate and a blue Hawaiian. The meat was very tender and seasoned perfectly. Rice n beans good but the tortillas were sooo hard it was like chewing on leather. The wait staff were nice. The blue Hawaiian was a little to sweet. I think the total bill was a little more than I expected. I don't know if I will be back again. Sometimes it's nice to try new things. read more

Lunch and dinner is delicious, but breakfast could be better. Bacon and egg tacos are aweful

The food was okay. However the service was horrible. Every interaction took at least ten minutes. At the end, after we had to ask for our check, waited 10 min then asked again. The waitress, in front of the manager, said "I'm busy. You can go up there (cash register). Talked to the manager and the response was "We're busy.". Manager tried to blame it on the kitchen, but that isn't the floor. Paid the full amount but no tip and we will never be back because manager does not care about crappy service. read more

Do not eat here! I ordered the California Burrito (safe and easy order). The food arrived fairly quickly, but when I took the first bite there was a large crunch in my mouth. The waitress just so happened to be bringing something to the table as I was pulling glass out of my mouth. There were over 4 large pieces of glass in my food. Ok, I get this happens but, the the manager never even bothered to apologize. And, they still charged me for my drink and did not replace my food. Awful! read more

Do not go to this place, drive thru lady was rude af and the food was disgusting! Horrible atmosphere.

I've been through the drive thru probably 7 times because it's usually fast, convenient and I am either on the way home because I'm tired or going somewhere in a hurry. They have gotten my order correct maybe 3 times and it's an easy order, just tacos, 4 of them. And at the window I tell them the order again and they agree. But when I get to my destination 2 of the tacos totally wrong. Sure I can call and complain then go back but I'm either too far or too tired. One more try and if it's not correct then I'm done. It's a shame because the same restaurant on W Military dr has a good reputation, but too far for me to go to. read more
