The BEST sopapillas I have had a in 3 decades! WOW! Had lunch here and the service was spot on! Mole enchiladas were good but the sopapillas brought my childhood memories back from New Mexico at an old adobe themed restaurant by Albuquerque! Highly recommended!

OmG! It is one of the finest restaurants in town. The food was exceptionally good, and the service was outstanding. We heard from a friend this place was good and sure enough it is wonderful. Their focus is on seafood. We think we are headed back tomorrow. Again, 5 stars. We returned the next day and had another fabulous dinner!

Hubby and I went here for dinner. There was not a lot of people, but it’s a place where people should go. The ambiance is nice. They have live entertainment that night and we enjoyed the songs and music. More than that we enjoyed the food. I ordered the fried tilapia which was seasoned perfectly and was crispy delicious. We had oysters rockefeller, some fajitas, guacamole and chips which was super yummy, and the sopapilla. I would come here again! The prices may appear expensive, but it’s actually reasonable taking into consideration the serving and the quality of the food. We sat at the bar, and you could too, as Arenas has a full bar. I highly recommend this place. More people should know about Arenas

I recently visited Arenas Marisqueria Lounge, and it was an unforgettable experience. The seafood was absolutely amazing—fresh, perfectly seasoned, and full of flavor. The atmosphere was lively yet inviting, making it the perfect place to relax and enjoy a great meal. The service was outstanding; the staff was friendly and attentive without being overbearing. This place truly knows how to make every guest feel special. I’ll definitely be coming back!

Amazing service, amazing food. Visit for the first time on New Year’s Eve and we loved it so much we came back again on New Year’s Day. Coctail de camarones was amazing, micheladas on point. We are definitely going back. Luis the owner offered a free dessert baked sopalpillas, delicious. Thank you Paula for taking care of our table.

Vuelve a la Vida bowl was YUMMY! The cheesecake sopapillas were also quite tasty. Service was just ok. Agua de la Vida & Las Isla drinks were the best drinks I've had in a while. I want to go back for my birthday in June. :)
