Hacienda Arandas — Restaurant in Laredo

Decorations added to the nice atmosphere as did the music. Their sevings aren't as large as other restaurants, but it's enough to fill you up. Some selections do not come with sides, so make sure to ask what your order comes with. The aguas frescas are really good and some can be requested without sugar. Do check the ingredients closely because some of the freshly made drinks are prepared differently than the norm. My mom did not like the horchata as it had some crushed nuts I think. The flavor was good, but she did not like the texture. Great customer service. Took my mom to eat and placed our ordet , but received a call from her doctor's office advising her appointment had been moved up. They offered to keep our food warm and put our drinks in Styrofoam cups to keep them cool. I paid, took my mom to the doctor, and came back to finish our meal.

Our favorite in Laredo, and maybe in all of Texas. Arrived about 5:30 pm on Friday. Wasn't very busy, but by the time we were leaving there was a good crowd. Started by serving us some chips and dips...not very large portions of chips, but filled them three times. Then was served a small appetizer dish with mashed potatoes, a light brown bean, and some green vegetable...need help with the name. We ordered the fresh fruit drinks...watermelon and strawberry...both are thirst quenchers. Then main serving, a kids cheese quesodilla with fries and rice, an order of beef fajita taquitos, and an order of fajita chicken taquitos (four each). Great service. None of us are very good at Spanish as the menu is in Spanish and only one on staff...

Mexican restaurant with a nice vibe, offering traditional dishes like tacos, parrilladas, enchiladas, smoothies and fruit water made at the moment. The food was just ok. We decided to give the Parrillada a try, but instead of chicken fajita we asked for Pastor and Carne asada, which came with bell peppers and onions. The food was a bit oily, but had a good flavor and texture, it also came with grilled nopal which had a nice flavor as well. As a side it includes rice and refried beans which were pretty good. Since the portion of the salsas were a bit small we ordered some extra, which usually is for free on other restaurants but here they charge you for it. The service is fast, the prices...
