We went to small claims today and judge dismissed case because our contract
had arbitration clause. They asked if they could still sue us here lkater and he said yes.
But now we are wondering if this depends on whether we win or lose.

Following the arbitration specified by contract, the arbitrator issues an "award." That award becomes the basis for your liability (or non-liability). Either side can then sue to enforce the award and reduce it to a court judgment.
