Pretty standard Mexican food in comparison to other joints in town. I don’t love the décor or layout of the restaurant particularly but the service has been good both times I’ve gone. I also appreciate the free chips and salsa. I’ve had enchiladas and fajitas. The enchiladas were just alright but I really enjoyed the fajitas. They were fresh and I had enough to take some home. The times I’ve come here it’s because I was nearby or my first choice restaurant is closed. It’s decent but not a favorite.

For a town with a lot of Mexican restaurants this one stands above. Best halibut fajitas in town. Even just the salsa is wonderful. My kids favorite are the chicken taquitos, he asked to come here just for them, and the portions are huge. We always have another meal to take home for later. Way better than La Mex, and most of the other mexi joints town. Busy on the weekends because the food is good.

As far as Mexican food is concerned, I have not been able to find a better all around consistent place when it comes to quality and taste of the food than Los Arcos in the Anchorage area. The quality of service is also on par with the food. Very solid! I ordered the steak fajitas and was very impressed! It was served on a sizzling hot skillet, cooked to perfection and sided with a plate of beans and rice. I added a side of freshly graded cheese to top them off! :) I would have to say that if I had to complain about any aspect of the meal it would have to be the rice! It was extremely dry and in my opinion not seasoned very well and lacked flavor. But even with that being the case I would still have to say it is miles above the Gallo’s version.

I’d heard great things about Los Arcos, and I’ve been meaning to try it. You get chips and salsa, which is always a plus! They also bring out a hotter salsa. Like most things in Alaska though, it’s just not that hot. I still appreciate offering a hotter option though! I got a lunch special with a burrito and a «Tijuana Taco». I’ll be honest, I wasn’t sure what a Tijuana Taco was going to be like. I assumed it would be like a SoCal taco: meat, onions, cilantro, with a lime. It wasn’t. It was more like the taco equivalent of a «wet’ burrito. It all came out on a big, hot plate with rice and beans. A classic Tex-Mex setup. Service was incredible. Quick and friendly. Food was OK, very similar to many sit-down Tex-Mex restaurants in Anchorage.

Ate there last night. Food was better good. The tamales were lacking. The masa was too think and too compacted. It was a treat however to find good Mexican food in Alaska. Who would have known.

Can I just say wow??? I am eating their chipotle chicken lunch special and its tastes great! I’m still here. I can honestly say it tastes better than places I’ve eaten at back home in Las Vegas! Just the right spicy flavor. So glad this place was recommended to me by a 25yr Anchorage local. OK I found my to go Mexican food place! Mucho gracias!!! :)

This is by far my favorite mexican place in Anchorage. I have been coming here for 8 years and continue to explore the menu. The spinach dip is worth the trip in itself and the margaritas are most excellent. Truly a place where everyone knows my name.

Favorite Mexican restaurant! They have the best fajitas, and they are big portions. Never a long wait and the food comes quick! I don’t bother going anywhere else because I’m always disappointed! The server usually remembers our order which is also nice:)

Waited at the bar for 20 min. Finally got a drink. The poor bartender looked swamped! Never got to try the food due to waiting too long. Maybe I caught a bad day?

I always enjoy the food here. Sometimes a little more than other times. I had the chicken chipotle today for lunch and it was very good. Service was good and the food was defiantly hot. The atmosphere is pleasant and usually pretty quick to get seated

I LOVE the Chipotle steak here! Good size portions and great food will bring me back again for sure. Prices are a little high, but I guess I’m a little cheap!

My family and I are regulars here and the food is always amazing. The service is top notch, we never have to wait more than a few minutes to be seated. The food is quick to get the table and anytime there is an issue, they handle it quickly and professionally. I would highly recommend this place to anyone who enjoys Mexican food.

Yum! Good food, fast and great service. Love that this place is by my house. The deals that come in the valpak coupons are great. The fajitas for two is a HUGE serving size — even the two of us couldn’t finish it.

I made a reservation one week after we had gotten married. I requested champagne be on the table as a surprise which they did. Everyone, not just our server, greeted us with a congratulations! We decided to go with the five course meal and wine pairing. Not being huge wine drinkers this is definitely the way to enjoy your meal! We were also unsure of what to really choose, so our server actually picked out our entire meal.

I’m surprised to see such high reviews for Los Arcos because our own experience was not anything like what other reviewers had. My first tip that the food was lacking is that the portion size was huge. When a restaurant has overly large portions, it indicates that they are trying to compensate for the lack of quality. This was our experience. First, everyone that served us was friendly and helpful. However, we were served by three different people. They switched without reason or explanation. I would give the service four stars, since we were served by so many of the staff and they were all nice, but I take away some stars for the restaurant as a whole because I am not sure who our waiter/waitress actually ever was. Secondly, the food was tasteless, uncreative, poorly decorated, and simply awful. Maybe some people think the dish looks nice, but for me, it appeared as if someone had vomited on a plate and served it up. Additionally, I was bothered by finding meat gristle and onion skins in my dish. With the broth solidified on the top and edges of the plate and the extreme and evenly distributed heat of the entire plate, indicated to me that the dish had sat for some time most likely pre-prepared and/or sitting on a hot plate for sometime. Lastly, my tortillas looked as if they were purchased and not made in-house, like other restaurants. My wife’s dish was also very bland and overly filled with cheese. Her enchiladas were soggy and simply gross. Our appetizer was very much on par with the overall quality of the food. I would not recommend this place as I experienced it and would encourage you to look for another restaurant. If my experience rarely happens, then the best case scenario here is that they are inconsistent, which, in my opinion, is almost as bad as being terrible all the way around. For the price, methinks go elsewhere.

Best Mexican in town! Fajitas are cooked and flavored perfect. A little more expensive than most but honestly worth it.

Rice and beans are decent(they actually taste like rice and beans, not canned beans with grains of cardboard.) I’m not crazy about the tamales here, they’re drier than my sense of humor. The enchiladas are pretty good. Serranos is better overall, but this is isn’t too bad if you’re on this side of town. I’m not a fan of tex-mex, and prefer the food at Xalos over this, but that is just me.

Li tried this place out because it was recommended by a friend. When we got seated, they do give you chips and salsa. I was bummed by the chips, they were stale. I ordered one spinach enchilada and one chicken. The enchiladas were decent. This place to me, is like any other Mexican restaurant here in Anchorage. Nothing fancy or different.
