    It's been over a year since I been to this location and to be honest it was terrible. The food was like half of the regular plate and the drink was terrible..I order a Carne Asada witch it was like half of the meet they serve anywhere else and my Patron Margaritas was bitter. Will not come back to this location...

    Perfect, as usual! Love El Vaquero! Tried the bean dip tonight - it is delicious. My to-go margarita was with no ice (as requested, due to long drive home), so that was great. I've never had a complaint when dining in or to-go!
