Ostioneria Arandas

If you find yourself at the Best Western or Hampton on the East Freeway, as I did tonight, consider eating here. Why?
A. REALLY good food. I had filete de Huachinango, which is fried snapper. Man that was good. It was four or five pan-​fried filets served in a delicious red sauce.
B. Nice service
C. Live music on a Thursday for about four songs.
D. A room full of families clearly enjoying one another (and the food)
E. Ice cold Pacifico beer

Stayed next door at The Best Western, so it’s walking distance. Went twice in a 5 hour span. That’s how good it was. First time I went, I had the tostadas. Shrimp and octopus. Delicious. So came back like around 9:30 pm had me 2 micheladas n a caldo de mariscos. Mmmmm. And the waitress are super nice n yes they are very beautiful ladies. But I love it and I’m going back today.

Fresh seafood if you’re stuck in this seedy part of Houston. If you haven’t had Mexican seafood this is a good place to start. Friendly service. Kind of noisy but clean. Fresh fish looks great reasonably priced. Seems to cater to locals.

Oh My Goodness! This was such a wonderful find. Fantastic service! Excellent food! More than reasonable prices. We were staying at the Best Western west of this and walked to it about ½ block. The menu is in Spanish with English sub titles (thank goodness because we are language challenged). This is seafood family restaurant wonderful fresh cooked food. As we were going out the door (8pm Saturday night) the mariachi group was entering (darn I would have liked to hear them), The restaurant was packed with people enjoying wonderful food and each others company. If you are lucky enough to live in Huston or be driving through or visiting I would say take a chance and enjoy some wonderfully cooked food. We had red snapper grilled comes whole (meaning full body) or fillet, onions, green pepper, fries, rice, salad, shrimp cocktail was wonderful the small was, to me large, can’t imagine what the large was. The guacamole was really tasty. I really enjoyed the food here.
