Staff, service and food were all 10/10. The red and green salsa that come with the chips was spicy. At least for me. The guacamole definitely put the fire out in my mouth. If you are a true lover of all things spicy.. the salsa may not ignite the flames you enjoy. The paella was delicious and the closest in flavor to the paella I enjoyed in Spain. Tacos and steak were cooked perfectly and so good. Even the fries were perfectly cooked, crunchy outside and soft inside.

Finally, I tried this nearby restaurant. The food is very good. While the portions on the appetizers could be larger, the empanadas and papa rellano were tasty. Mole was great though in one they describe it as Oaxacan and on another dish as Poblano. Give credit where it’s due please. My friend loved the Costillas so much she didn’t share. I ate the Paella.Pretty Good but not great. Rice slightly mushy. Atmosphere on a Thursday night was pleasant. Not loud at all. You could hear everyone’s conversations. I’ll be back to try those dam rins.

Went here on a Saturday evening. Great place for dinner. We ordered the nachos, birria tacos, and paella, and each of the dishes were tasty, although, the nachos were probably the best part. It’s very quiet, there is ample outdoor and indoor seating, including bar seating. It was not too busy for a Saturday evening, so assume you can go here anytime and you won’t have to wait to be seated. I would come here again to try new items on the menu.

I don’t find many restaurants over 90/100. But Aro is definitely closer to than to 90, if you catch my drift.

Amazing service. Before we eveb had a table O was greeting by the servers who were happy to have us. Such friendly staff. Limited menu today, no problem still a good variety. Ordered Chicken Tacos, Ceviche and the street corn. Absolutely amazing. Preshrunk handmade flour tortillas, tender fish and the corn had a beautiful fire cooked flavour. Well done. Find this place and enjoy!

So much flavor to the food. We had a crudo, the snapper, and the ribs. George was our excellent server and we loved the lively, intimate, atmosphere.

A must visit!!! Nice ambiance. Delicious food. We ordered the carne asada with vegetables and mash potatoes. Courteous staff and customer service. It is located in a safe location, adjacent to main streets and freeways . My hubby got the Mescal and he loved it!! I will come back to try the rest of the dishes soon!

Food is great. Service is lacking — probably depends which server you get. Not kid friendly — please parents don’t bring your kids here. Busier night than normal, so the staff was probably stressed out.

I was looking for Jones Coffee which I totally found after. Obviously not familiar with the area. But maps said I arrived at Jones Coffee and I was standing in front of Aro Latin looking around confused, so I just sat down and ate since I was hungry anyway. It was great, a nice atmosphere in a really artistic and colorful area. I am vegan so I was able to put a meal together without eggs, cheese or meat. Had the gauc and the sauces with chips. Very, very good and reasonable on pricing. I was able to use the restroom to wash my hands and my waiter was great and accommodating. Once I sat down I looked across the street and saw Jones Coffee way over there. Maps have been off for while now.
