Diana was very professional, kind and patient as there were 8 of us with 4 young kids. We had an incredible time celebrating two birthdays.

My family and I just ate at Vaquera and absolutely loved it! Food was amazing! And portions are huge. Food all came out hot and on time. Service was impeccable and you can tell they just want everyone to enjoy their dining experience. We ordered several dishes from the salads to half roasted chicken and the New York steak. Amazing flavors and overall a great time! The restaurant is beautiful. We will be coming back for sure!

Dinner here this evening and everything was delicious. We decided to sample a few small plates to try more and enjoyed everything we had, plus we were full! The ribs were so good, and a decent amount of meat on each bone too. The peach and burrata was also amazing. Definitely will come back to try more

Our experience was excellent on every level:

Parking was easy and ample

Service was absolutely delightful, from Katie, the Maitre d' to Naia, our server.

Food was superb : unique flavor combinations and dishes as well as old favorities, all perfectly prepared.

Ambiance well suited to both small (they have booths) and large parties, and very well suited to families.

Would highly recommend it!

Such a cute meal with a classy Western vibe. Came here for dinner with my parents and we had a reservation (made online beforehand). Parking is paid; $2 per hour and they don’t validate. We shared the food family-style. We ordered the Santa Maria wings (6 pieces) and cherry tomato salad. They gave us complimentary duros (the orange pinwheel snacks) with an avocado crema. I really liked the wings - they were crispy but not oily. For the entree, we shared the 22 oz ribeye which had the carrots and spiced potatoes on the side. We added the mushrooms on the side, which added some nice spice. We ordered the ribeye medium rare, which is what the chef recommends. All the team members, from the maitre d to our waiter Josh to the bus boy, were friendly.
