    Extraordinary as usual. Great food, ambience and wonderful service. Mark was enthusiastic as usual on the guitar. Dustin and TEAM provide a great dining experience on the best patio in the valley! It was a highlight of our holiday season with our family!

    This place is still the gem of the desert.From the warmth of the staff to the quality of the food to the amazing atmosphere, this is my go to spot here Everything was perfect. The rib appetizer was tender and tasty. My usual pork chop and my wife’s skirt steak were done to perfection. They always accommodate my dairy allergies as well. Our server Marco was spot on as usual.

    Another outstanding evening with delicious food (the new sea bass entree just melts in your mouth), live music (which is entertaining but not obtrusive) and the best outdoor tables in the valley. Add to it the always attentive and professional service that Cory provides and you have an unbeatable dining experience that keeps us coming back!

    Having the former USC Womens golf coach with us who had never been there made it very special. Thanks you.

    This is “my slice of Heaven” go to place. My favorite server “Caitlynn”, beautiful, sweet.. attention to details! Mark the highly talented guitarist that creates an “unmatched” dinner ambiance that without him… Arnold’s it would not be the same!! Valet staff… upon arrival.. always welcoming and gracious as well as the reception area. It’s evident that the staff are very content to work at Arnold’s…that says a lot!! 🙏🥂🎊

    Tempura green beans were fantastic. And the banana split is a must. Always a great meal.

    Ambiance was great! Good taste of music and beautiful landscapes and lighting. Menu is good, not too traditional and well mixed varieties. Two people in our table had a meatloaf plate. It was good quality. To our taste, the sauce was little too sweet. Could it be BBQ sauce? My flounder was a good thick piece on top of mushed potatoes. No sauce topped on the fish and it was faintly over cooked, but taste fine. All of us had a green beans side and it was too under cooked; too hard. The beans was fresh but needed 30 to 45 seconds more cooked. Yellowtail sashimi appetizer was beautifully presented and tasty. It was little pricey and should not be called "Sashimi" as the flavor did not have a typical fresh-fish-sweet-taste due to the variety of condiments all mixed with hint of sweets with very small portion of yellowtail. We also had a order of Cream Corn to share. It was thick and sweet and taste was nothing but like canned corn. Over all, we might go back again to try some different plates as the menu price range was pretty fair. We enjoyed a good service and great ambiance.
