We really enjoyed our meal here! We got a taco plate (#1) and a tamale plate (#39). We got both…read morechicken and al pastor for the tacos, and they were so good! I preferred the al pastor between the two. I loved the green and red hot sauces that came with them. The tacos are quite small though. The tamale plate was one tamale covered in some sort of sauce with beans and rice. This was good too! Next time, I'd probably try just a regular tamale to see how it is. We also got the horchata, which was refreshing. Strong cinnamon flavor to it. Prices were good, but the portions aren't too big. The workers were nice, and service was quick. You order at the counter and wait for your number to be called. There are a few stools inside, but it's intended for most to sit outside (both covered and uncovered spots).

We've been to El Vaquero twice now to play trivia. While we enjoy the clean amenities and our…read moretrivia caller, both times, we've all been incredibly unhappy with our food. The restaurant is spacious and gets loud when there's a crowd. Thankfully, there's usually a place for our larger group (6 people) to be seated comfortably. Service is very nice but slow. Trivia runs for a little over an hour and both times our food has taken about 45 minutes to come out, despite our comparatively small orders. My friend who comes to trivia does like the food here (he always gets a beef chimichanga FWIW), but everyone else has now tried several different dishes and not once been satisfied or even just not unhappy. The one shining star has been the cheese dip. It really is pretty good cheese dip, lol. The first time I ordered the chipotle chicken, which is supposed to be chicken in a chipotle sauce. I was firstly surprised and disappointed to see these were small strips of chicken rather than a chicken breast. But that would've been okay...had the chipotle sauce been decent. It had no chipotle flavor and honestly mostly just tasted like sour cream. It was very weird. My parents have tried a beef burrito, beef taco, and chicken taco. They said the beef has an unpleasant metallic taste and the shredded chicken was, according to my dad, inedible. Most recently, my husband got a carne asada burrito and said it tasted so unpleasant he was concerned about whether he should even eat it. Fortunately, no ill effects came about as a result of it; he determined it was ultimately just very low quality meat with an unpleasant texture and taste. My father in law just doesn't order anything except a beer after coming for breakfast once and having a bad time there, too. On my most recent visit, I got a side of rice and beans to eat with chips and cheese dip. The rice had been cooked into sticky, mushy lumps and had no flavor. At this point, I have no idea what to order that might even come close to satisfying my palate. It's disappointing. We may be forced back due to circumstances like our availability in order for us to play our favorite game and have time together. If so, I'll continue to try different things until I can maybe someday find something that works. I want to like this place and wish I had the experience so many other reviewers have had.

I want to love this restaurant. The staff is cheerful and the bathrooms are clean (a reliable…read moreindicator). It was full, there was a troubadour singing and we were seated quickly. The menu is astonishingly diverse, with dozens and dozens of choices! But... the fajitas arrived, warm but not sizzling. My Steak Tropical arrived and both looked amazing, generous portions and then we dug in. Alas! My steak was tough and rubbery, like chewing an old shoe. The shrimp and chicken breast were utterly without flavor. I don't mean they tasted bad, I mean they had absolutely no flavor as if they were boiled and plunked on the plate. The fajitas were the same. They looked so delicious, but completely lacked aroma and flavor. Bland. How is that even possible? Both dishes were like eating movie prop food. We were hungry and ate some, but took the remainder home. We saved the uneaten portions to make into a chili here at home. Now look, this seems like a wonderful place and has a good crowd. I am a "mild spicy" guy and my wife likes "very spicy." But both of us had the same reaction; it looked great but was just bland and had none of the rich, complex flavor for which Mexican food is famous. Go, try El Vaquero. We may give it another try on another day. But last night, as wonderful as everything seemed, as sweet as our waitress was, the food just didn't satisfy.

Guacamole casera is a specialty at this restaurant. Chunks of avocado, onions, tomatoes, cilantro and jalapenos with lime juice and salt. So delicious! We thoroughly enjoyed this appetizer. 5/5 Birria tacos are not on the menu. But they have the best in my humble opinion. Seasoned but not greasy and salty. They fill up the taco shells with lots of meat. The meat is tender, succulent, seasoned well, and plentiful. The consommé is delicious and not greasy or too salty. 5/5 Lunch chicken fajitas were steaming hot delivered with a plate of refried beans, Mexican rice, lettuce, pico, sour cream and guacamole. The fajitas were seasoned well, not too salty and absolutely delicious. 5/5 Michelada was on my mind. I haven't had one in a while. Their Michelada was made with Modelo and Clamato with tajin on the rim. Delicious!!! 5/5 If you like guacamole and birria tacos. Please stop by to check out the foods.

This pretty much sums up our visit:…read more Me, getting into the car: wow, that was bad Husband, closing my door: yeah. We specifically came for margaritas during their social hour. $3 off a set list plus seasonals. There was a table card listing seasonal drinks. I specifically asked our waitress if the Christmas margarita was considered seasonal. She assured me it was, until we got our check and she said it wasn't. I'm not arguing over $6 but $26 for two watered down drinks was not a social hour deal. It's not a deal anywhere. My husband and I shared the three different empanadas gracing the social hour menu. The chicken was delicious, the beef was ok but the fish was fishy. So much so that I didn't even get to a second bite. We ordered chips, salsa and queso for the group. The chips were great - crisp and airy. The queso was good though unremarkable, the green salsa was great. The red was a tad hot for me but everyone else at the table disagreed with me. Husband and I shared the enchiladas verdes. Three chicken enchiladas were served with a plate of nearly tasteless rice. The enchiladas were dry. Even queso didn't help. I ate half of one and my husband didn't even want my second. We didn't take home the leftover enchilada. That pretty much sums them up - not even worthy of a to-go box. With tip, our check was $90. Way too much for such a mediocre meal. We just walked in the door. Hanging up our jackets, we agreed - we won't go back.

The lady taking our order couldn't clarify the difference for us. We also got an order of chips and salsa. All of it was very good! The chicken was a bit dry, but the mole sauce was great. And we loved the homemade green and red hot sauces they provided in squirt bottles. The chips and salsa also tasted very fresh, but the amount of salsa was soooo small. It was comical. Would've loved more, especially for the upcharge of $2.99. We would definitely come back and try other options. They have a lot of items including various drinks (including cocktails and beers) and desserts. It felt very clean. Service was quick and friendly. Parking is tight. All in all, a nice meal!

As I waited (and sadly, the wait was longer than it should have been), I enjoyed my chips and salsa. When I say that I waited, that was being generous. This wait was too long. Probably over a half hour for my tacos and gordita to arrive. When my food (finally) did arrive, I found it pretty good. I hope that my experience with the lengthy time waiting for my food was an anomaly rather than the norm. I will return here to give it another try.
