Hacienda Arandas — Restaurant in Laredo

My recent visit to Hacienda Arandas was genuinely delightful, and it's quickly become a new favorite spot. I arrived just before the lunch rush, and the first thing that struck me was how impeccably clean the restaurant was – a truly welcoming sight. The atmosphere was pleasant and inviting, setting the stage for a great meal.

The food itself was outstanding. Everything tasted incredibly fresh and delicious. I decided to try the Chile Relleno, opting for the beef version after hearing good things, and it certainly didn't disappoint; it was packed with flavor and perfectly prepared. My dining companion raved about the Tripitas Tacos, confirming they were as good as rumored, and the portions were generous without being overwhelming. A highlight for both of us was the Agua de Horchata – it truly lives up to its reputation as the best in town.

Beyond the fantastic food, the customer service was exceptional. The staff were consistently nice, polite, and attentive, making the entire dining experience smooth and enjoyable. Prices were very reasonable, offering great value for the quality received. The only minor snag was the parking; I had to park a little further away, as the spots directly in front are primarily for to-go orders. However, this small inconvenience was easily overshadowed by the overall positive experience. I would wholeheartedly recommend Hacienda Arandas for anyone craving authentic, delicious Mexican food with...

Do not recommend this place, been to this location twice now, and both times the employees were rude. Today, one flat out lied about why she got our order wrong, she didn't realize I was standing right there listening to her. I went in and explained that, yes, we did place the order a little strange, but clarified at the end what we meant. The employees all bad mouthed us in spanish, I guess they thought I didn't understand because I went in speaking in English. The man preparing the order was nice, but the other employees were so...

Awesome food. I had a cheese chili relleno - delicious. Even the coffee was awesome. That was on 02/22/2023. I went the following day on 02/23/2023 & had enchiladas & two different kinds of Mexican smoothies - horchata & another one that had pineapple, mango & strawberries. I don't know the Mexican word for these Mexican smoothies but they are so amazing. I'd probably go again this week but I'm only visiting Laredo & leaving in the morning. This is one restaurant I'll be going to again when I come back to Laredo....
