Birrieria y Taqueria Ay Arandas

Birrieria y Taqueria Ay Arandas in San Antonio has become a regular go-to for me, and for good reason. Their menu is straightforward yet satisfying, and I usually stick to my favorite options: quesabirria or tacos. What's great is that you can customize your order with different meats, keeping things interesting even if you're a creature of habit like me. The flavors are consistently good, and I've never had a bad experience with these dishes.Their small selection of beer is a nice touch, and they keep it perfectly chilled, making it an ideal pairing with their hearty, greasy meats. If you're craving authentic Mexican flavors without any frills, this place delivers. It's not about mind-blowing culinary experiences but about hearty, satisfying food at a decent price--perfect for a casual meal.The atmosphere is clean, and the staff are friendly and efficient. Your food comes out quickly, so it's great if you're short on time. However, one minor drawback is that the music can be a bit loud, which might not be ideal for those sensitive to noise.Overall, I'd recommend Birrieria y Taqueria Ay Arandas to anyone looking for an authentic and affordable Mexican dining experience. It's a dependable spot where you know exactly what you're getting--delicious comfort food that hits the spot every time.

Great food good pricesGotta start that ordering food is at the register not in the table if you want another taco or more food u gotta get up and go to the register and order there.there's a salsa bar with many options of salsas and add ons like pico de gallo, limes and sliced cucumbers Food is delicious The restaurant is big enough and well taken care of, is clean and the background noise is average Friendly costumer service and nice decorPrices are accessible

Ordered on New Year's Eve. They were open for order here on Yelp and DoorDash. They accepted my order and 1 minute before they were due to deliver my order I got a cancellation notice saying they cancelled my order. Then when I went to the DoorDash app it said that the restaurant was now closed. Why did you accept my order, and wait 40 minutes to cancel it. Do not recommend, they are a waste of time and money, and they are inconsiderate to the customer.

The quesabirria tacos and consomé were very delicious. The tacos of carnitas and cueritos were also very flavorful. The street tacos of asada was too bland unfortunately. The michelada was fair it was a simple Clamato with a little seasoning of something.Overall the birria and carnitas will have us go back. The service is pretty much help your self not a sit down and order with a waitress but the employees are helpful.We did like the ambiance of music and the salsa bar was also interesting.

I have never been so grateful in my life for my dinner plans to have fallen apart. This birria ramen is THE FREAKING BEST THING IVE EVER PUT IN MY MOUTH.I want to drown in it.I want to move to the hood of San Antonio and come here everyday of my life. I would give someone a kidney to give me one more bite. Drive to San Antonio. Idc where you are reading this. Do it now and eat the ramen. YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED

I called in my order well ahead of time so it could be ready for pick up and when I got there I was treated as if the order wanted to never called in. Was given a number and had to wait at a table just like anyone else.

I get birria de res and husband does chivo. We both love them, really good flavor tastes close to home lol las quesabirrias are my kids faves with consomé. I wish the quesabirrias were a little bigger in size but still very filling. I've been getting the birriaramen as well. I enjoy it, so wish they used same broth as the regular birria, it's a different consistency. Ordered once a michelada, really really good. Service is decent, waitresses are kind and to the point. Inside I feel can be more cleaner for my preference. It is a busy and loud restaurant, we prefer to go.

Really good soup (consomé). Fresh ingredients, authentic food, good salsa bar. Service is good, pero poco inglés.

Literally the best Birria ever! My boyfriend and I stopped by and I seriously think about it all the time since our visit. The service was friendly at the counter. The restaurant was clean and we appreciated the decor and comfortable seating. We loved our Birria and we especially loved the salsa bar!

They have a drive thru which is great I'm torn about this place The birria tacos are decent, not great but better than some other places... they're tacos though... disappointing. I had cabeza, lengua, al pastor and they were so bland. They had no flavor what so ever and even the green salsa had no flavor. They're great if you're drunk ... but so is Taco Bell. Prices have also gone up .
