I go often, great location, inexpensive in a higher priced neighborhood, rarely a easier, lots of live music in summer.Update 2/22: I still like this restaurant. I have been a regular for five or six years and even used their services to cater parties at my house. The fajitas are great and my wife and I split them. It comes with four tortillas. But tonight when I needed one or two more, I was given a side order and charged $4.50. That's ridiculous! That's $1.25 for each small 6 inch flour tortilla. It's bad enough that over the years they have reduced the size of the bowl of chips they give you and now no longer allow you to go to the salsa bar to refill your salsa even when your order takes a while. These are good ways for Los Arroyos to drive me away! Keep it up and you will lose me as a customer!UPDATE 3/2023I still enjoy going though don't go as often. Service is great, food is okay not great but not bad. Was introduced this time to Virgin Margaritas which are delicious and I will have them again! Was a bit noisy on the bar side but the round tables at the back make for easy conversation.

I just ordered carnitas tacos. While the rice and beans are delicious the tacos came with one tortilla and only the carnitas meat. No salsa no sauce just a small portion of pork . Good but very bland .

Lol pretty mid Mexican restaurant. I ordered the alambre which was good. Nothing insane or bad. Flavor was somewhat there and I did like the tortillas. I think the guacamole was alright. Not much flavor kinda simple. Service was great I will say and I did enjoy my mojito. Might be a tough judge after just visiting Mexico City.

Why does this place exist? The food is inexpensive- that must be it. Because the food is not good. I can’t imagine worse food. Honor Bar across the street has great food but it will cost three times more. Lucky’s across the street is amazing and full of movie stars but it’s ten times more expensive. Tre Lune and Ca’Dario down the road are excellent. Los Arroyos can offer lousy food where you can bring children and not pay much- that’s it.

One of our favorite lunch trips. Went to lunch today, wonderful to sit outside and split the chile con queso with corn tortillas , guacamole, blood orange margarita and iced tea, and the tropical salad with halibut. Daniel, our waiter, was very attentive and ensured we were served promptly. We will be back.

Excellent, friendly service. The new bar is modern and sleek, a nice addition to the restaurant. Burritos and ceviche are especially delicious. Do not miss out on the churros!

Enchiladas were pretty good but not mind blowing, but easily THE BEST CHURROS IVE EVER HAD.
