Los Arroyos Montecito Mexican Restaurant & Take Out

It’s so seriously overpriced. We live right around the corner and despite the convenience we do not find it worth the cost for what you get. We tried it again for burrito week and got the chicken runaway burrito for $9, which is a very reasonable price for a chicken bean and cheese w/guac burrito, without rice mind you, normally around $20, more if you add rice. Guacamole was entirely on the first ⅓ of the burrito, terrible distribution, mouthful of guac. The flour tortilla was moist and borderline soggy, not a nice texture, it seemed like they attempted to sear the tortilla but did it in a hurry. We attempted to sear it better on our skillet at home.

Burrito week should be a time to market their burritos as the best so we would want to return for the rest of the year, this was not the case here and we do not plan on returning which is a bummer because it’s the closest Mexican restaurant to us. I leave a poor review because I feel like if I called management it would fall on deaf ears and nothing would change. This is Montecito’s tourist trap.

It was a very nice place as I was walking in. But what I ordered was my burrito with carnitas and I asked for spicy salsa. They gave me a burrito with mostly rice and beans and very little meat as well as my salsa that they gave me was very bland and had no spice to it.

Employee outside let me use bathroom. CVS next store said they had no bathroom.

This Resturant had a clean bathroom and restaurant was chill and nice inside. I’d eat there if I come back.

Absolutely phenomenal gourmet style, Mexican restaurant with great atmosphere

The food was fabulous! Staff was friendly and courteous. We sat outside but the traffic noise wasn't pleasant.

One of the best Mexican Restaurant I have ever been to. Very friendly staff and lovely atmosphere.
Must try if you’re in town!
