Arandas definitely gained new regulars tonight. My husband and I loved our meal and service. The crudo of the day was a stand out dish but everything we got was amazing! Our sever was so sweet to us and our baby, the whole night was enjoyable.
We appreciated how fast they got our dishes out to us when we explained our 10 month old will only tolerate being out for about 45 minutes.

I woke up today thinking about the perfectly spiced, savory Butternut Squash tacos that I ate LAST NIGHT. Everything we ate was exceptional but those stood out, as did the fluffy, delectable Basque cheesecake. We had a wonderful server that had honest recommendations and was just generally great to talk to throughout the night! We will definitely return any time we’re in town.

No host to greet anyone, music was a mix of 90s r&b and electronic. Waitress cared less for refilling any water. Boring interior. The guacamole had the consistency of baby food, covered in pink edible flowers and had so much lime, it stayed green for about 4 days. My entree was an ancho lamb shank with polenta. No ancho and served with grits.

Arandas is us transition, so there was no food offered. The bar was open and the drinks were great at Happy Hour prices but the best was the service and hospitality from the new bartender & owner. Wishing them success on the new cuisine (which we heard was Mediterranean Cuisine Fish Focused) … but follow them to find out for sure

I traveled a LONG distance to dine here with friends from San Diego. And this is a destination-worthy restaurant. This is not your typical trendy Mexican restaurant. This is world-class cuisine envisioned by a brilliant chef, executed flawlessly in a beautiful space with a great hospitality team.

6 of us dined and were able to order basically the entire menu, plus a few specials. The overarching theme here is that the dishes look and taste deceptively simple…yet there are MANY complex layers of technique and flavor that go into them. (As a chef myself, I know exactly how complicated it is to execute cuisine like this.) This is the level of cuisine being produced in only a handful of restaurants in Wine Country, and most of those restaurants require months-in-advance reservations. (And most of those offer a sombre, stuffy dining experience, whereas the team here is familiar, friendly, and fun…exactly the way the chef says he envisioned the restaurant, like being welcomed into his family home.)

We were pleased to see a seafood- and veggie-focused menu, which allowed us to splurge on MORE dishes than if the menu was weighed down by meat. (Although the steak dish was transcendent.) When we revealed that we LOVE intense spice, the kitchen sent out a variety of salsas crafted by the culinary team, including some experimental stuff, that allowed us to amp up the heat of our dishes.

Each dish was a carefully crafted balance of texture, flavor, and nuance. We didn’t have a single dish that we found to be average. Literally EVERYTHING was exceptional. The cocktails were also absolutely killer, and the wine list was fun, including some Mexican wines that were delicious. (Apparently the oldest winery in the Americas is in Mexico.)

We had the fortune to speak with both the chef and the sous chef, and it sounds like the chef encourages experimentation by his team, and loves to give them creative expression and feature their results on the menu. Fancy that! A non-domineering, nurturing chef.

Although it’s only a month old, this restaurant is destined for a name and lasting legacy, once the word gets out.

Arandas wasn’t at all crowded when we were here on a Friday night (albeit we had a later reservation time – 8:30) and I don’t know why, it’s great! It’s a little pricy but nothing beyond standard prices for the area, and the food and flavors have left a lasting impression for me.

The chicken tacos were so well done – I’m impressed with how moist the chicken pieces were while getting a nice char from the flame. The veg tacos felt like I was eating a taco interpretation of a samosa – packed with depth of flavor in a way I’ve never had from a veggie taco before.

I’d highly recommend the papas app – I was skeptical about an avocado crema, potatos, and smoked roe all working together, but they do (perfectly). Don’t sleep on the churros – amazing!!

The atmosphere is nice and the service was great. This place will absolutely be on my list to revisit if I’m in the area again!

Really nice aesthetic, food was mid. We went on a night that they had a special menu. The duck on that menu was not pleasant. My friend ordered it and only took 2 bites before saying she couldn’t have it anymore. Her sister tried to eat it and the same happened. The waitress we had seemed to disappear at some point but was really nice at the end. She took the duck off the bill which was much appreciated. They also randomly had a tarot card reader but the wait was too long for us.

Very pretty restaurant with a great patio. I had high expectations and wanted to like ot, but the food was just okay. Drinks and service were great! The smoky orange and rosemary garnish in the Paloma. – wow. Nice touch!

The guacamole was great! I don’t understand the tiny ramekin of salsa, but guacamole is great. Elote was tasty, it’s on the cob so not easy to share but good flavor.

The entrees were underwhelming. My husband and I both went will the two tacos. He had to steal my delicious salsa matcha because his were both dry (caritas and a carne asada I think). My curry butternut squash had some flavor but the squash was I undercooked and it could use some slaw or fresh ingredient. The quesabirria looked like it was prepared earlier and sat. The salsa macha was the highlight. And the beans were great – creamy and smoky. Maybe we caught the kitchen on an off night but I would go for drinks and apps maybe.

Opening week, and what a gem. This was such a delightful meal— not too heavy but filling and delicious. Left feeling perfectly content. The appetizers we got (Guacamole y mas) was the perfect blend of flavors and textures to begin the experience. Pickled veggies, fruit with tajin, guacamole, chicharones, salsa and hot sauce. Fun to have this on the table to graze while you sip your cocktail and wait for the meal. Atmosphere is moody and comfortable. Meal came and was delicious. We chose the steak plate (huge serving) and pollo tacos (vitamin Ts lol). The taco was my selection for the night. It was served uniquely, meat mixed with wild edible flowers (beautiful) in a bowl by itself, small bowl of sauce, little plate of toppings including habanero pickled veggies, and a separate basket with hot house made tortillas. You put your own taco together. At first I was torn about the presentation but I actually prefer it this way after experiencing it. The vibe is definitely that of eating a delicious meal with friends on a patio but being served by a private chef. So comfortable. So delish. No filler foods distracting from the main dish. Our favorite drink of the night was Double Trouble, a clarified margarita. I’ve had nothing like it and it was so refreshing. Dessert was good, as were the dessert cocktails. But, the main attraction was the meal itself. Everything was perfectly cooked and served beautifully. The table was full of food and dishes of accouterments. Every employee was welcoming and kind, it seems like they’re all happy to be there. We also sat by the kitchen and it appeared to be organized, clean and, in general, a well-oiled machine back there. Can’t wait to go back!

I am so thrilled to welcome Arandas to Healdsburg. This chic Mexican outpost has exquisite cocktails, a swanky bar vibe with Happy Hour Monday thru Friday from 4-6pm and delicious food. The menu is both creative, delicious and inventive. It’s on the higher end price point wise but worth it for the delicious flavors, rich stories shared by Chef Adrien Nieto and the lovely setting and vibe.

Be sure to try their Caesar Salad, Double Trouble Margarita, Chorizo Taco and for steak eaters the Carne.
