First time we had been there, food was authentic Mexican, clean, servers very friendly.

This has easily become my one of my favorite Mexican restaurants in Quincy. Excellent, expedient service and outstanding food served in a clean, welcoming, and friendly establishment.

great quincy option. food is always great and the waitress girl who is always there when i come is the #1 waitress in quincy she's awesome.

This place is amazing. Normally go to El Rancherito but this place is way faster, friendlier, and better all for the same price. This is definitely my new go to for Mexican food!

Drinks are cold, chips are hot and fresh, salsa is homemade. The dishes are made while you wait.

Love this place. I always order more than I should, but this is the kind of place you can do that! Finish your meal with the churros. You won't be sorry.

Fast friendly service great atmosphere very clean. Food is amazing.

Fun fact! You can get Ricardo's food on Broadway from the restaurant, the truck in the KMart parking lot, and the truck on 12th St! It really does taste amazing!

The food was good, the place was clean, and the staff was nice. Besides, it was just nice to be able to eat in a restaurant legally again!

Vicki and I are here. Delicious food, generous portions, excellent service, food cooked to order.....what more could you ask for. Oh BTW great Margaritas!!!!

Some of the best Mexican food around... awesome fajitas and killer burritos...never had a bad meal...

Best Mexican in Quincy By far......Way better than any other mexican in Quincy. Super friendly staff,Great service and the food is amazing

Really good tacos and great service! I accidentally left my purse and as I was leaving our waiter ran out and brought it to me. I am really grateful and I appreciate him!

I'm not crazy about Mexican food, but I love their shrimp and fish tacos. The food and service is excellent. Very reasonably priced too.

I've attended several times now and the food and the service is always wonderful. The staff is attentive, and the food arrives quite quickly.

A Lot Of Food For The Price! Fresh & Hot. Friendly Staff! Will Definitely Be Back!

Food is good, i hope they will be busy at dinner time, i come too early but they were open. Support small businesses, big corporations will make profit anyway.

The food was delicious and affordable. The service was prompt and attentive. Would definitely recommend to others.

So very clean. Food is on point. Staff is friendly. Love it!.. great atmosphere. Authentic food. Great prices

Always great at Taqueria Arandas. The food and service keep us coming back to one of the best restaurants in town! Thanks!

Delicious food with friendly and attentive staff. Arrived to a small crowd and the place filled quickly with happy customers

Great place for lunch food was 1st class will definitely eat here again.

Has great service, clean atmosphere, and amazing flavor food.

Best street style tacos in the area because that’s my favorite but never had a bad meal there.

Felt good about this place. Greeted by our wait person very good. She made it worth going alone. And she’s from SanAntonio. They have pretty good Mexican food too. I’ll go again.

Wonderfully fast service and they have Pepsi products. Food is good and hot and they are very hospitable. Nice clean facility. Not too many there though so it's easy to social distance. Can get carry out or dine in.

Haven't had a bad experience here yet!

Absolutely the best n most authentic Mexican food in town ... staff is beyond amazing love this place it my #1 place to eat

This is my favorite Mexican restaurant in Quincy. The service is always the friendliest and the food is seasoned perfectly. Their margaritas are always on point as well.

Great food, clean restaurant, great people. Made me think of the great food in the Maxwell street market in Chicago. Simple, Satisfying, Quick service, and relaxing. It doesn't what you wear, who you are, or where you are from, you will have a very good experience.

The cabeza tacos are fantastic. Actually everything I've tried there is great from tortas to enchiladas and everything in-between. If authentic is what you are looking for then look no further.

Fabulous food and service!

Gold standard of a local restaurant! Great, fast service. Delicious food. Best and only REAL Mexican place in Quincy. So good we used them for our wedding, and the guests were very happy!

No matter when I am able to eat from the Arandas Taco Truck, I leave satisfied and taste buds always wanting to return back over and over again.

How is it that I find better Mexican food in Quincy, Illinois than I ever found in Albuquerque New Mexico in the 15 years I lived there? Taqueria Arandas is awesome! The food and service were great and prices were very good for a lot of food!

The food was excellent and we did not wait very long to get it. Our server did a excellent job as well. This is our new favorite place to eat.

I wanted to say I appreciate the staff here, I mistakenly left wallet on table and didn't realize till next day and my gf called them and they had set it aside . In this day of age not alot of honest people want to show my appreciation .

The food was fantastic. Staff very polite. Some of the best Mexican I have had. Normally I take a photo but was to hungry to wait.

The food is amazing and the staff are very friendly and attentive to you the whole time you are there!!! Definitely worth the visit!!! Delicious food 😋

Great food. Nice atmosphere. Smaller, cozy dining experience. Love the wall mural 🖌🖌🖌

I love the quesabirria tacos!!

Great place to take your kids. Food is really good. We order the corn tortilla chicken tacos with onion and cilantro a lot. So delicious.

Great tacos. Michelada beer is awesome and very good service. The place is relatively small and parking is tight but there are usually spots available. Price is good.

It doesn't get any better. Best Mexican in the tri state area. Super fast service, and friendly staff we hit the truck or the restaurant at least once a week. Arandas has taken over. Thanks for the great service.

Finally authentic tacos, it’s been 4 years since I had some tacos that had this range of flavor and texture

Best salsa I’ve tasted in town so far, doesn’t taste like the canned ones from other restaurants in the area.

New favorite Mexican restaurant in Quincy. Love this place. Staff is friendly. Prices are fair. They have the best burrito in town. Order the Tapatio burrito. Best in town!!!!!

Hands down our #1 pick for Mexican in town. These folks make a well price and consist meal every time. Service is 10/10! We’ve been patronizing this business since it was on 4 wheels. You can’t go wrong visiting for lunch or dinner!

Really good place to eat. Highly recommend.

I stopped by with a friend to get a to-go order. We sat down and waited but I don't think it took all that long considering there were other take-out orders and in house orders. It was below zero outside and when we got our food back to my friend's place, it was still piping hot but not overcooked and I really appreciated that. The food was excellent and I'll be sure to stop by there more often. I'm really happy that they offer nice side order options for a really good price. The staff was friendly and the restaurant was pretty nice inside, although they don't have a lot of seating. Overall, I think it's a nice restaurant for a great price.

Everything always good here. Got the Quesadilla de Cabeza and a Michelada, soo good!

We had street tacos and they were awesome and authentic!! Can't wait to go back!

As always, delicious and fast service.

I am a Original customer from when they first opened on 18th. I am hooked like the rest of Quincy.

I eat here at least every other week. The food is always delicious, the portions are good, and the staff is always friendly, I'd rate them 10 stars if I could! Edit: They are just as good as ever. This is still my favorite Mexican restaurant in Quincy

We always get great service and delicious, authentic food! The best Mexican food in Quincy!

Best street tacos since I moved to Quincy! I'll be back!

This place was nice. They were super busy and appeared to only have one waitress, but she was super friendly and energetic. Our food came out fairly quickly and it was really good. Prices were reasonable.

Seriously some of the best Tacos I have ever eaten. It's really hard to find authentic tacos in this part of the state but these took me by surprise! The carnitas is to die for. On top of that, the prices are so reasonable! The server we had was helpful and the place overall just has great ambiance. Will definitely be back.

Excellent food at a very reasonable price. We ordered take out, and the food was ready before we could finish a beer at the bar. Very fast and friendly service. The menu has some unique items. Well worth trying.

We love this place! It’s so good every single time, take out as well as dine in. The margs are delicious, & the guac is always so fresh tasting. Have eaten here many times, tried quite a few different things from the menu & have enjoyed everything. Great food, cute place, & friendly staff!

YOU NEED TO GO HERE!!! Best Mexican food I’ve ever had!! It came out hot and was so authentic and amazing. Staff was great! Refills and food took a minute to come out but we were filling up by on chips and salsa!! Pricing also was soooo good!!! $12 for the birria and $17 for the fajitas!! The horchata was also amazing but superrrr sweet!

Dining at Taqueria Arandas was an overall enjoyable experience. When we first arrived, there was some initial confusion—no one greeted us at the door, and it wasn’t clear whether we were supposed to seat ourselves. We ended up going to the bar to ask. Fortunately, once we were seated, the service improved significantly. Our waitress was attentive, friendly, and made sure we were well taken care of. The food arrived quickly, was served hot, and tasted fresh. The restaurant itself was clean and well-kept, which added to the overall positive vibe. Despite the awkward start, we left satisfied and would consider returning.

Well balanced restaurant. Staff is very friendly and attentive. The Salsa and chips are good. Salsa not to spicy. Chips not salty or old. Good crunch. Street tacos are great. Had Cabeza and al Pastor. Definitely a place I would recommend.

I first met the owner of this establishment a number of years ago when he only had one taco truck. At the time it struck me that the food coming out of this truck was amazing. It is absolutely authentic and everything is cooked from fresh nothing is frozen. You can tell the difference from the first bite. This is a genuinely family-run business. A number of his brothers and his sister are usually on hand to serve you the best Mexican food in Quincy. You owe it to yourself to stop by and try anything on the menu. I know you'll come back.

One of the BEST quesadilla's I have ever eaten, hands down. For the price it is unbelievable. We've had the ability to eat Mexican food in many places all the US. As you can imagine, I was shocked when I found this place in Quincy, IL. Would highly recommend, great service, food, and prices.

It was a good experience, the girl who was our waitress was very friendly and the food was delicious.

Always delicious! Clean. Super friendly and efficient staff. My favorites are their tacos (chicken, steak, shrimp, chorizo), fajitas, and Jalisco chicken (choriopollo). Their chips, salsa, and queso are the best in town! Parking is easy. I’ve never had an error with their take out either.

Servers were friendly and atentive. Food was fast. I ordered a chicken chimichanga and a mango margarita. Everything was good. Took an horchata to go and it was the best I've has in a long time. It seems like a place that has regulars that are known by the staff. I'd eat here again.

Our waitress was phenomenal. Very upbeat and friendly. We had a shot of tequila and beer. Had street tacos which were delicious. Top notch!

In town for business and found this gem via Doordash app for pickup.. The bartender had my food for me ready to pickup and was beyond friendly as were the waitresses as I walked in.. I ordered the Carne Asada plate and it was amazing! Great flavor and good size portion- highly recommend this spot to anyone craving Mex food in Quincy!!

They are always so good to me and get my food out quick and perfect everytime!

In from out of town and my family took me to this little spot. Holy guacamole this restaurant is your next “go to”. Staff was incredibly polite, restaurant and bathrooms were clean and the food came out quickly and was SO good. I ordered the California Burrito with Ground Beef and had them add French fries in it. Best Cali Burrito I’ve had in a few years.

Best salsa I’ve tasted in town so far, doesn’t taste like the canned ones from other restaurants in the area.

Started with a food truck in my small town. Then they opened a store front! Food is great! Portions are always good and prices are fair in today's market. Highly recommend the Aranda's plate and Steak torta sandwich! Great place good people.

Best tacos in town! So good. Reminds me of my Aunt Marianne’s cooking. Very fresh. Radishes and limes come standard. Sometimes I think their chicken tacos are my favorite. But, the steak ones are really good. Actually, the carnitas might be the best! If you like tacos, definitely check this place out.

I visited Quincy for my Daughter’s official College recruitment visit at Quincy University. We wanted to eat Mexican food while in town, we found this place and we loved it. My wife and boy had the fajitas and I had the Quesabirria tacos. The food was great and I highly recommend it to everyone. The waiter was very nice and helpful. The only negative comment is that the other waiter (tall & slim) that was there was speaking very loud, like she wanted all the patrons to hear her conversation. Other than that everything was outstanding. We will definitely continue to eat here every time we’re in town visiting our Daughter. Thank you

Was recommended to try this place by a friend, and I was not disappointed! We had fajitas and the quesabirria tacos and both options were fantastic. Everything tasted fresher compared to other local Mexican restaurants. We will definitely be going back for more.

Never a bad dinner at Taquiera Arandas! It is absolutely our go to for Mexican cuisine. Ricardo, Patricia and the entire staff are friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend

Best Mexican food in Quincy, I refuse to go anywhere else. Prompt with service, and food. Always attentive to make sure everything was prepared perfectly.

Food and service were both very good. Cheese sauce was one of the better sauces I've had. Margaritas and salsa were just ok.

Pretty good shredded chicken taco salad, queso blanco dip. The shredded chicken wasn't quite shredded enough, but had good flavor. There wasn't enough lettuce, so the tortilla bowl looked kind of sad and empty, and it was swimming in a pool of juice at the bottom of my to-go container. The queso blanco dip was thin but delicious. The chips were a little thick and maybe slightly stale. Staff was friendly and prompt, got my order correct and provided cutlery. My standards are pretty high, but this was good (4.5 star), I'd order again.

Nice service, flavor too mild but good. Guac appeared not freshly made. Others were impressed.

The food was good. Service was great. Our server Jennifer was very pleasant young lady. The shrimp taco was delicious.

Really awesome friendly service and good prices. Their burritos are awesome and good portions! Place was clean inside and food was accurate and prompt. Giving only 4 stars because the chips and salsa were not very good at all but hey at least that leaves more room for burrito!

Good quality food a little overpriced stop was not very friendly atmosphere was okay

I first want to state that my family loves this restaurant for the food and the service. Both of those aspects are worth five stars. The kids love eating here, we love supporting this place. But our dine-in experience this last time would have been much better with more family-friendly programming on the televisions around the dining room. One of the TVs was playing Wheel of Fortune, which was perfectly appropriate for a family place. The other televisions were less appropriate. One had a news station that was reporting on murder and violence with commercials discussing sexual assault. Another had a movie on that featured creepy clowns that had our children transfixed. It would be really nice to switch the TVs to more-neutral programming (such as Wheel of Fortune or family-friendly programming). The TVs really brought down our experience dining in, as our kids were asking about what was happening on the screens. Again, we love this place, but this is not the first time that the televisions have had questionable material showing and now that we’ve experienced it more than once, it was time to leave a review.

At $4.50 for a bottle of Modelo, was pretty much robbing the bank account. The atmosphere was good until I seen the (3) garage can stacked on top of one another just inside the kitchen.

Ordered from here many times as I did tonight I asked for extra chorizo cause what I usually order comes with it but it's very light .my order showed up with zero chorizo so I call the store and the guy tells me I'm basically lieing... just lost a faithful customer!

Burrito I usually order came with hardly any cheese sauce this time. My only complaint and I was too far away to go back and get some. So, I had to order more queso from another Mexican restaurant.

Waitress was very rude to me, slung my food on the table and when I asked for the manager, she said he wouldn’t be there till Monday and would not let me speak with her. I would advise you do not go to this restaurant because they are very rude. I guess it’s a racist thing because everyone else was getting perfect service and when it came to me, she was very rude
