Love is all arandas
Fox E.

"Love Is All Arandas" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h3gEkwhdXUE I eat it off my fingers, I eat it off Barbie's toes Love is all Arandas, and so the feeling grows It's written on the border, it's everywhere I go So if you really love Mexicans, come on and get tacos You know I love food, I always will My mind's made up by how hungry I feel There's no "la migra", there'll be no Trump We'll eat Carnitas, and then we'll hump I see your face before me as I lay on my bed I want to eat your taco, but let's go to Arandas instead You gave your pollo to me and I gave pastor to you I need someone beside me to help me finish this food You know I love you, I always weeeel Don't build that wall, or we'll have sh**ty meals There's no La Migra, no INS Is this authentic, damn right it "es" It's written on the wind, from Houston to Mexico So if you really love Mexican food, come on and buy Tacos They say love is all Arandas, and now I can believe it. Come and check it out for yourself. This is really good cheap generic Mexican food which is tasty and filling an unhealthy - just as real Mexican food should be. Made with a lot of lard and a lot of love. Yes there are lots of these locations around, but this one is right in the heart of the very Latin Spring Branch and I love it. What to get: Anything authentic, which is 90% of the menu. What not to get: Pulled over by the racist cops in Spring Branch looking to give tickets to Latinos. Arandas is one of the most useful (*yes, I said useful) restaurant chains in the Houston area because they have a good standard of partially/mostly-authentic Nuevo Laredo-style Mexican Cuisine which tastes good and will fill you right up. And more importantly they are open way into the night. Service can be pretty good or bad depending on who is getting your stuff for you. Arandas has amazing salsa, especially the green one. (Barbie reminded me of that). Everything is good, a little on the greasy side but then so is your Dad whenever he hires me as a rent boy. They are not always in the best areas, this one is right next to my gym in a lovely Latin Barrio, but you won't care because the food here tastes so damn good. Okay, it's not on the level of a La Bala on Bellaire or Regia on Long Point, but we are still talking about excellent Mexican food, even with the extraordinarily high standards in Houston. Prices are affordable and there are not many things open this late, not which are this good, especially up in Spring Branch. Now, I'd like to share your dinner with you, so Passyadinner over to me. If it's really, really good, I might share it with everyone Arandas.

Thankfully, Mark was there and initially was told a 35 minute wait but seemed intent by quicker. Ambiance: 4/5 It was breakfast time so of course it was a busy time. For my visit, it was crowded but not to where you couldn't hear your table. Dress is casual, good for friends, solo, or pit stop. Service: 5/5 Our waitress was very knowledgeable and friendly. Since it was our first visit there, she gave us some background that it was a Pappa's owned restaurant and food is made from scratch. Food: 3/5 They offer mimosas and I was tempted to order, but was driving and it was 9AM so forewent that option. There are food options for every tastebud. Mark ordered the fried cheese sticks, they were one of the items that I found worthwhile to return for. I opted for the Waffle feast. It included a waffle, that I added pecans on top to, two strips of bacon, eggs your way and hash browns. To say that I needed to add salt and pepper to the eggs and hash browns because they tasted bland and flavorless was unfortunate. It also was served at room temperature, because it was made from scratch, would think it be warmer to hot. The waffle was savory and had good mix and topped with the pecans made it even better. If you're on this side of town and want a change up from the "other breakfast diners" DOT would be where I stop. Fast, friendly service. Depending the food you get, it gets the job done for some sustenance to hold you over when you're not sure when your next meal is because you'll be in Galveston for 7 hours riding a float in the Mardi Gras parade.

We asked if we could kindly be seated in another booth to be told the open ones were 'closed' (no clue why it didn't exactly seem like they were in their own section). The next booth she offered us was drowning with the sun. Luckily, all we had to do is look at her, and she immediately offered us a normal booth, not next to a stinky dish bin and in a shaded spot. We all ordered something different off the menu. The food was good but the service just seemed very dismissive and not exactly friendly. I would definitely come back and try it again. I'm a strong believer that may be somebody was having a bad day. And I would definitely come back and just buy a pie and take it home because they looked delicious. Sadly, we didn't get the chance to try any of the dessert pies.

He asked our food order first. We had to ask him if we could get drinks first. 3) When we did order we watched our drinks sit at the end of the bar for 10 min until I had to go retrieve them myself. 4) The food was INCREDIBLY mid for it being that expensive. Undercooked potatoes, overcooked chicken, not a single person at the table of 4 adults had a good thing to say about their meal 5) It took 2 FREAKING HOURS with no one there. When I say no one I mean completely empty 6) Trying to check out and leave. Our server who was looking for an upsell told us he saw a cookie in the back that was ready to go. Thanks for telling our 3 small children that at 9:30. Reluctantly after telling him no several times it was awkward enough to cave. Cookie took about 20 minutes to come out. We had been there for over 2 hours at that point and we had to just get up and leave. If you go to this restaurant after reading this, you deserve the horrible experience you will certainly have.

They had live music on, and from the looks of it if you want to be a part of the show you can as they also have karaoke it looks like. The gentleman that greeted us was so nice and made us feel so welcomed! It wasn't one of those "oh I have to be nice to these guests because I'm getting paid" type people, you could really tell his niceness was genuine. I felt like I was at a fine dining restaurant. Our server was also very nice, and super helpful as I asked for a wine suggestion and she hit the nail with her suggestion. She brought a small sample for me to try before serving it. The food itself was delicious! We got the onion rings appetizer, and you could tell they were made to order. They were super fresh and also crispy. The chicken parmigiana was good, and they were not stingy with their portions at all. The picture I took doesn't do the dish justice. I will definitely go back to this place, as their food, service and overall experience is a great one when you dine in.

We shared a bowl of the potato soup where we had no expectations and I thought it tasted pretty decent. But the real test was the entrees. Mr. Picky ordered the Fettuccine Alfredo with shrimp while I opted for Veal Parmigiana, and we each stole a bite from the other's plate. We reached consensus immediately that both dishes were well-seasoned and quite delicious, meaning we would return for more good food in the future. Seriously, we hadn't expected much when walking in and looking around, but were pleasantly surprised at the kitchen's efforts. We finished lunch with an order of homemade bread pudding and tiramisu, the latter of which in 2012 won a chamber of commerce epicurean competition 1st place ribbon. I wasn't there to judge that competition and have had better, but sincerely appreciated the moistness of the bread pudding. While the majority of diners were older and a more mature crowd, there's a lot to be said for value, and we thought the menu price was better than reasonable and I think a lot of people will discover this as a value destination, something we all appreciate.
