About this business
If there is a wait at this popular restaurant, order a classic margarita or a 'floater' and dip into the chips and hot sauce and/or queso. Before long, you will be addressing a plate full of the Tex-Mex standard of your choice. Or try any of the variations on barbecued chicken-the chalupas of this variety are especially tasty. Entrees make this a fairly inexpensive spot, provided you do not get carried away on the margaritas. The atmosphere is fun and lively, and El Arroyo has a sense of humor: Just check out the pointedly w... read more

RecommendedGreat place and fantastic food. Smoked chicken chalupa was excellent in the El Arroyo special. When you stop by for pics of the sign make sure to get some great food too
Austin tradition. Great!
I have lived in Austin for 36 years and never once had I been to El Arroyo. A year or so ago my mom and I decided to go. We drove down searched for parking walked down the block from the parking to the restaurant. When we entered several people were eating. After 25 minutes of sitting at a table with no one even saying hi or taking drink order we walked out. Worst service ever. I won't ever go back and wont ever recommend it to anyone.
Margaritas are Yum!! the sign is always Lit !
Always... “a must stop” when in Austin! Always Great!
Never actually been here, just following the page for the hilarious, creative and whitty signs. You guys crack me up, hope to visit Texas someday and try your food. Keep up the great sign work. Sending love from Washington State( no not D.C. the other one up by Canada and Oregon)
It was enjoyable! We all enjoyed it!
Amazing food with amazing service .
Usually a great stop for the best food and drink specials. Tonight was the exception. Like literally 3 ppl working tonight with a house full. About 10 mins to get water and then immediately left them without interacting. They were way busy for the amount of staff. App we finally got was very greasy. I will go back because I’ve been going for over 25 years. But a first timer might experience a significantly reduced level of service and decide not to return.
