El Arroyo stands as an iconic Austin gem, renowned for crafting the finest hand-squeezed margaritas and serving up delectable Black Angus beef tacos, among a plethora of other Tex-Mex delights, since 1975!

Situated at the corner of West 5th and Campbell, this local favorite boasts a quirky marquee that captures attention. Daily, the billboard transforms with a fresh pun—spanning the spectrum of wit and humor—making it a delightful fixture at the heart of Austin's culinary scene.

The laughter doesn't stop there—they share these puns on Instagram, drawing in admirers like our very own Kathy Streib, and Debe Maxwell, CRS, is also in on the fun. In a world where a daily chuckle is a necessity, following El Arroyo's Instagram for the latest pun is a shared joy.

Wishing you endless smiles! Happy Friday!!

Good morning Dorie. What a great selection this morning, especially jogging the memory! If it were true I would be a Slim Jim. Enjoy your margarita with some salt on the rim..

Good morning, Dorie.
What would Friday be without your El Arroyo funnies? Of course, the first one is my favorite. 😁

Dorie, for jogging the memory, some of my memory lapses feel like a workout, especially how many times I can't find my cell phone!

Has everything gone to GOLF? I think YouTube has its golfing station, and my husband is their number one fan. Thanks for the laugh, and have a great weekend.

I have learned to take a lot of things in life with a grain of salt, but I haven't been in the habit of having drinks with salt around the rim, haha.

Hi Dorie and Happy Friday. I love them all but especially the last one. Sigh...I haven't had a margarita in years. They make me get the "phonies" which is when I pick up the phone and start calling everyone.

Hi Dorie:

These are all pretty funny. I missed this on Friday as we were flying to a family reunion in NY. Back home, now, and trying to do a little catch-up
