Service was amazing 👏🏻 we were in and out in under 30 minutes. Weren't rushed, our food was hot and fresh. I didn't particularly care for what I got under flavored for my taste but other then that it was great. The horchata was delicious.
This restaurant is very dressed up and the building is very nice. The food was decent but could’ve used a little more seasoning . This restaurant was super clean and the staff were all dressed very tidy. The only thing that stood out negatively to me for such a nice place is the service was a little slow and didn’t frequent the tables enough. The health food score was no surprise to me, because everything was so clean and tidy.
I had the Lunch Fajitas and was very happy with the combination of Steak & Chicken Fajitas. There is some growing/opening pains in that when there, a few days after their opening of the Muscle Shoals location, several of the people around me, including myself, got their initial orders wrong but the servers were quick to make things right.
The Taste of Fajitas was very good however I will say that I noticed two things about Los Arcos the was noticeably different than the other Mexican restaurants that are around the Shoals area. First the Fajita meat (steak and/or chicken) was noticeably thinner pieces of meat than you usually get at the other restaurants but the taste and seasoning of them was excellent. The second noticeable difference was in the serving size.
I had the lunch order, for one, that when it came out was on a cast iron plate, similar to what you get at most all other restaurants when you order fajitas but in Los Arcos you get what is essentially 1/2 a cast iron plate that favors a half moon shaped plate. Most of the other typical Mexican Restaurants, with their lunch fajitas, bring you a round plate (approx 10 inches) loaded with steak and/or chicken so at Los Arcos the flavor of the fajitas is excellent, potentially better than most of the others but the serving size is quite a bit smaller.
I'll go back to Los Arcos and feel that once they get past their initial mistakes that come with normal opening of a new restaurant, that they will be an excellent addition to the Mexican themed restaurants in the Shoals area. My 4 Star review was primarily for the taste of their fajitas and not for the serving size and service. I hope the service will greatly improve in time but I doubt that the serving size will increase that much.
It just opened up. Thought it would be a little different from the other Mexican restaurants but pretty much the same. Good price on food. Cheese dip was good. Went for lunch and service was good. It's worth trying once if you haven't been.
