We ordered pick up on a Monday at like 6pm and it was quiet inside. Our order was accurate and the queso was the best. The Baja shrimp taco was yummy, the trailer park was mid, I think seasonings changed a little it. Everyone was friendly and pick up was easy.

More like a 3.5, but I'm rounding up. It's a Tex Mex place and it was my first time having it in Texas and not in California (which would have just made it Mexican Fusion or CA-Mex, I have no idea if that even correctly exists either). My friend highly recommended their green chile queso here and it gave our non-Texan group the chance to try a franchise that doesn't exist on the coast. We shared the: 1) Green Chile Queso + Chips: -This is one of the few times I've had it where the chip ratio was lower than the sauce ratio at any given restaurant, usually they try to fill you up on chips so there's less room for the other stuff, but this works too, just wish there was more chips to enjoy with the queso. -It's their award winning green chile queso topped with guac, cotija cheese, cilantro and diablo sauce. Nice mix of creamy, sour, and slightly spicy. -Great recommendation by our friend, by the way, would easy buy a jar of this for consuming later on. 2) Trailer Park: -Loved the advertising that went with this taco. Keeping it trashy since 2006, haha. -It's a real junk food type of taco, if the name didn't imply that already. -It's fried chicken, green chiles, lettuce, pico de gallo, mixed cheese, poblano sauce, all on top of a flour tortilla. -A mess to eat, but hits the spot if you need something greasy to keep you going. -I don't think it's worth the cost, and there's other things on the menu I'd rather try out, but for a quick bite before flying out, it did its job. Overall a decent franchise to check out and I love the "hell" theming of the restaurant as well.

No employee.  No working machine. No concern for customers.

I love Torchy's. Always have. But they are trying to do away with service. They have two ordering units and one is out of order. No one at the counter. And they have bored employees wandering around who couldn't care less. The lady in front of us was obviously having issues and it took her 15 min to order. I won't come back again if this isn't remedied. No one wants this. Stupid idea Torchy's. Stupid.

Quick service for quality food. Will be coming back again in the future. The food smelled and tasted great. I recommend the broski bowl with the fajita chicken!

Great food, amazing service!!! What more can you ask for? I love stopping by this location when I'm in Arlington for a bite

Tried Torchy's for the first time and it was great. I can't remember all the tacos we tried, but they were all yummy in their own way. The brisket was one of my faves though and the trailer park. The chips and guacamole and queso were also delish. And the guy at the register was also very helpful when it came to deciding what to get. Definitely coming back!

Moved to Arlington in the last year, and I'm so grateful family members told me this restaurant was…read morehere! They're always so clean, the music isn't too loud and the whole place smells delicious. I was able to order 6lbs of Pollo and 8lbs Bistek on a Thursday after 5pm, for a party on Saturday 1pm. It's so worth the time and it came out very savory and fresh. This place is amazing for takeout or dine in; just be aware that they're rightfully busy! Please have patience with the staff, they're so kind and helpful all the time.

Found this place on yelp. They had high reviews so I decided to give it a try. Everything was okay…read more Nothing really stood out. The salsa was tasty and spicy. The tacos weren't overly greasy. I got the 5 taco plate with beans and rice it was 15.99 but with tax and tip it came closer to $20 (no drink included). The two meats I got were barbacoa and bistec. The texture of the bistec was chopped very finely (I'm use to bigger pieces). Both meats were soft and "juicy" (I felt like they were watery) they didn't hold much flavor. The tortillas were fairly good. The space is really big and clean, the employees were very nice. I wish I would've liked the tacos more but they just weren't for me! However, they might be for you, so I would still stop by and give them a try! Maybe you will have better luck or pick a better item on the menu! They did have a lot to choose from.

This has always been our go to place when we want Tex-Mex without going to a chain restaurant. The…read moreservice is always great from being acknowledged when entering to making sure you get everything you want. Our niece can to visit for a day and she agreed to join us to eat even though she says where she lives there is tons of Mexican restaurants. She was so impressed with the food, saying it the best Tex-Mex she's had. The place is fairly small with a separate bar area so the atmosphere is very easy to relax and talk while eating plus visit. Check this lace out, guaranteed you won't be disappointed!

This Mexican hole in the wall appears tiny from the outside. The parking lot in this mini-mall was…read moresmall, but I didn't have any trouble finding a spot. The restaurant reveals itself to be larger once you're inside. It's a cozy dining experience and I liked the cluttered decor of Mexican tchotchkes and liquor bottles. The owners were very kind to reserve tables for our large group and arrange for us all to pay separately. I tried the cheese enchiladas and they were very filling - they came with Spanish rice and refried beans on the side. I was tempted by the taco salad... some fellow diners ordered it and they were serving size was enormous! Most dishes here seemed well suited to having enough leftovers for the next day.
