" While searching for a genuine taco experience, I ended up at Taqueria Arandas after a local recommended it. Upon arrival, I was greeted warmly, and the vibe felt inviting. I ordered the al pastor, which was absolutely succulent, and the flavor profile had me wanting more. Surprisingly, their flaming hot salsa added the perfect level of spice! It’s a solid spot that I’ll be revisiting before I leave town. " (*Curated Review*)

" I must admit my first time at Taqueria Arandas was not what I expected. I had heard a lot of great things, but the service was slower than expected, and the food missed the mark for me. I tried the chicken mole, which had great potential but was too sweet. The space had a nice Mexican vibe, though. Hopefully, my next visit will be more favorable! " (*Curated Review*)

" This is my go-to place whenever I’m in Austin! The carne guisada is absolutely delicious and they serve it with fresh tortillas that just elevate the dish. The staff remembers me every time, which adds to the personal touch. Although it can get a bit crowded, the wait is usually manageable. I've never had a bad experience here, only amazing ones that have kept me coming back over the years. " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve been a regular at Taqueria Arandas for quite some time now and I’ve never been disappointed! The tamales are just right, not too heavy, and so flavorful. The staff remembers my name, which makes me feel welcomed. My only critique would be the cleanliness of the establishment; sometimes it could use a good deep clean. However, the quality of the food makes it worth it. I consistently recommend this place to friends who are looking for authentic Mexican food done right. " (*Curated Review*)

" Taqueria Arandas provides an experience that feels like you're sitting at a table in Mexico! The decor might be basic, but the food makes up for it. I ordered a burrito stuffed full of meat, beans, and rice, and it was absolutely delicious! The burrito was hefty and the flavors were well-balanced. The staff are pleasant and keen to help with menu selections, indicating their pride in the food they serve. I suggest coming early to avoid a wait, as they get busy! " (*Curated Review*)

" After a long day, I needed comfort food and went for Taqueria Arandas based on some recommendations. Their chicken enchiladas were such a delight; they melted in my mouth! The service was excellent—my server was always nearby and eager to refill drinks. The only downside was the overall noise level, which made it a bit hard to chat. I’ll definitely be returning for more soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I must say, Taqueria Arandas is what Tex-Mex dreams are made of! From the moment the chips and salsa hit the table, I knew I was in for a treat. The flavors are bold and authentic, and the portions are generous! I particularly loved the shrimp tacos. The restaurant itself felt cozy, and the staff was super attentive. I will forever sing praises about this place! " (*Curated Review*)
