Arroyo’s Mexican Van Alstyne

Sorry Arroyo I tried the new Toco place here and your still #1 here in VanAlstyne won't wonder off again!!

Delicious food. The menus could use a little wiping, but the service and the food were great. Very friendly atmosphere

The food was good. The service was friendly and fast. I really loved their salsa!

A big find in a small town. My wife and I were happy to come across Arroyo's right off the square. It isn't fancy by any means, but the atmosphere is excellent. If you've ever eaten at a small Mexican restaurant in south Texas along the border, or even in Mexico... this place reminded me of that. There was random decor, lights, wood floors, colors, and many features that make this place just a bit more authentic than what you'd find in the city. Our waitress was excellent. She was a young lady who was pleasant, gave us great menu advice, kept our drink glasses full, and brought us refills on our chips, salsa, and queso. And oh yes... free queso with the chips! Huge bonus! My wife cannot have corn or wheat, so she was served shredded chicken tacos without the shells. It was very tasty when you mixed in the salsa, rice, and beans. I got the trio with a beef taco, beef enchilada, and chicken enchilada double rice, no beans. Was this the best Mexican food I've ever had? No. But, it was excellent and full of flavor. It was done well and plated well. It was a great meal and 100% worth coming back for. The best way for me to put it is, the food exceeded the size of the town. It was a more authentic Mexican Tex Mex meal than any of the chain places in the city.

As always, food is wonderful, service is great and we can't wait to go back!
