El Vaquero uses a white sauce instead of red. It is rich, creamy, and plate licking good. Produce is fresh. Spice level appropriate for gringo mouth. Wait staff attentive. Worth driving out of town for.

What a great place this is! It absolutely has the best Mexican food for miles and miles around…read more Actually, the Mexican food here rivals Mexican food from San Diego, CA and Tijuana, MX, which has some of the best Mexican food in the world- in my opinion. If you find yourself in Wray, CO it would be a sin not come here. I can't seem to order anything else other than the carne asada fries, because they're so good. My wife ordered the Pastor tacos and loved them. A Co-worker got verde cheese enchiladas, he said it was delicious. The service is prompt, the food comes out pretty quick as well. The restaurant itself is large with tons of seating in the main area and they have a separate bar area. They bring you chips and salsa (for free) and if you ask they have a hotter hot sauce that they will bring- if requested. Also, it's a great place to buy Mexican cokes by the case, I've never seen them so inexpensive, the owner can't be making any money on those! Highly recommended!!

We started off with guac and chips and a mojito and a margarita. The guac was so good and I enjoyed the jalapeño in it! Nice kick! The margarita was great and if you want a jumbo, it's only $14 and it's HUGE! The carne asada tacos were good, but honestly a little dry. The meat is thinly sliced and cut short so it gets a bit dry. But still, with the sauces and sides (or at least the sides from our fajitas), you get a moistness. The fajitas came out sizzling and tasty! I love the sound it makes. That's how you know your fajitas are perfect. The peppers and onions were soft and seasoned well. But again, the beef is still dry! I love the vibe in here. So cute and quaint. Definitely not the nicest Mexican restaurant I've been to (look wise), but they had super fun seats and decor! This is a great neighborhood spot clearly! Ultimately it was good. Our server was quick and efficient. It was a perfect pitstop on our trip and I'm feeling super content!

Don't let the exterior fool you. Give them a try!
