The servers at the restaurant was very nice and my take out order prepared quickly. I got the arroz con pollo though and was pretty disappointed in it. It looked good and looked like it had a lot of flavor. However, it had little to no flavor.I was surprised how it was prepared too because I am used to having an entire bed of rice and then the chicken, veggies, and cheese poured over top. This was separated more like fajitas. The cheese sauce was only on the rice and was watered down. It was a small portion or rice too.

We just got carryout and it was absolutely fantastic. Chips & salsa came with our meals and that really sealed the deal. We will definitely be back.

Booked a "private" room for a family party - there was a table of 35 people in the same room. We could hardly hear the person next to us. The drinks contained very little alcohol if any. The food came out in staggered times -one guest had to wait an extra 10 minutes. Several ordered Fajitas and we had to keep asking for the tortilla shells. One of us never even got the tortillas. My fajitas had 5 strips of raw bacon in it. It was disgusting. Will not return. So disappointing.

One of the best authentic Mexican restaurants in Grand Rapids. Consistently great quality with speedy friendly service. The most amazing Chile Verde! They go above and beyond. They ran out of Ranch Dressing and actually had someone run out to get more...and did it fast! Great drink specials. Nice family atmosphere. Prices are fair. Definitely worth a visit if you enjoy authentic Mexican food.

My experience at El Arriero was great. I ordered the Real Burrito and it tasted very good. Additionally, the service was amazing and we got our food very fast. There is also chips and salsa to munch on during your short wait for food. I had a great experience and would recommend dining here.

I was looking for a Mexican restaurant that I had yet to try. My husband wanted fajitas, and they had six different kinds to choose from on the menu. He ultimately ended up getting the Real Burrito and I got the Burrito Verde. The Real Burrito had so much flavor, and the Burrito Verde had the best carnitas I've had since moving back to Grand Rapids. My mother missed a large combination platter like she had in Charlottesville at the other Mexican restaurants in town, but she found something like it here and loved it. Definitely my favorite Mexican in West Michigan I've tried so far.

Worst experience ever, was served food with metal shavings in it, showed the manager, tried to be nice about the issues of metal in my food, still tried be nice to manager and he still wanted to charge me for my 1 cocktail after I ate their metal shavings! Never again! And I was a regular customer! They suck!

Been here easily 100 times. Best Mexican food I ever had. My wife and I come here at least once a week. They have 2 other locations El Harragian and The Real Arriero. In my opinion El Arriero and El Harragian are better than the Real Arriero. All 3 places have the same menu items and prices. If you haven't been here and you love Mexican food, you are really missing out

We showed up for an early dinner. Everyone was very friendly. Ordered Chile Verde, and like always it was out of this world. The meat was very tender and the sauce was PERFECTLY seasoned. We also ordered queso with chorizo and it was also very good, did not have that top layer of grease you find at other locations. My husband asked for a different salad dressing for his salad, and we were told they did not have any, but soon there after the waiter came with the packer of Salad dressing. They actually went out and bought some while we ate. Like I said, excellent customer service. We love this place, wonderful food, clean place, and great staff.

The ACP chicken is incredible. It's a really simple dish: just rice, chicken, and cheese... but that cheese sauce! It's amazing.

We came in after 9 PM and the service was good. Food came quick.I had chiles poblanos. The red sauce needed a little more spice, in my opinion, and the peppers were a bit milder than expected. Still, it was very good.The wife had the burrito verde. The pork in it was quite good, and I dont usually like a shredded pork. The pork itself seemed spices by some sort of dry rub that worked well. The green sauce atop it was surprisingly spicy.Definitely will return.

Great Mexican food. The salsa was just spicy enough without, being overpowering and the fajita nachos were a perfect ratio of chip-to-topping. The wait staff was veryI friendly and service was quick. would highly recommend this restaurant if you are in the mood for Mexican food.

This place is sooo bad when u look at the menu online it give you one price but when you get there the food doesn’t have a price. And you talk to the manger and he will tell you with a straight face that this menu doesn’t have a price . So if they feel like charging you $20 they will. I don’t recommend this place it was a bad experience overall nothing was what I expected.0

My husband, sister-in-law and I stopped in this delightful restaurant while running errands. This was a wonderful dining experience. Atmosphere and decor are vibrant, hostess/server was a delightful young lady as efficient as she was friendly. The refried beans were fresh, rice cooked to a perfect texture and the Pollo a la mexicana was so good, best Ice had in years.
