    It’s a lovely place. Great food, service and enjoyable (not blaring) music. Such a nice relaxed evening. Pricing very reasonable. Sat on patio and we all enjoyed every moment.

    We had yet another wonderful evening. Our favorite dining destination. Service was a bit slow but we savored it non the less. My brother in law won best sports car in the La Quinta car show and it was a great celebration as well as his birthday. The shrimp and ricotta ravioli rivaled Arthur Avenues in the Bronx. Al dente and light. The gnocchi, and spinach salad were on pointe. The prime rib was a bit dry but none the less totally enjoyed. The flourless chocolate cake was a great way to top off the evening. Also. Again the music was awesome and complimented the dining experience.

    We sat on the back patio, which is just beautiful with soft guitar music in the background. Our server, Brianna, was the absolute best! She made our anniversary even more special. Now dinner. We started with the tempura green beans. Yummy! We shared the branzino, which was perfect with the chopped salad. Everything was beautifully prepared and delicious. Arnold’s is a very special place.

    The most beautiful patio in the valley. Make sure to sit outside. The musician is fabulous. We had the beet salad and grouper with potato stack.. all were delicious. My only suggestion would be more training for their servers. They race around the restaurant like it’s on fire. They slam the food down on the table, not wasting a moment to say what dish it is .. very unprofessional for such a nice restaurant. Our waitperson, on the other hand, was very professional and checked on us multiple times without rushing us. There were lots of huge parties and I know they were very busy but we waited 30 minutes between the salad and main course. We didn’t mind as we were enjoying the music and our wine.
