I don’t quite understand why this is a Columbus favorite, every time I’ve gone the food has been average. I have a pretty resilient stomach, but I usually end up feeling pretty gross the following morning. The atmosphere is what you’d expect. There’s better options around town in my opinion.

An Unbeatable Mexican Culinary ExperienceWhen it comes to Mexican cuisine, this restaurant stands head and shoulders above the rest. From the moment you step inside, you’re greeted with awesome drinks and a menu that promises nothing short of excellence. But it’s not just about the food—it’s the entire experience.The attentive servers treat you like a special guest, ensuring your dining experience is memorable. And let’s talk portions: I was pleasantly surprised by the generous servings. Each bite was a delightful revelation—flavors that exceeded my expectations.From the outside, El Vaquero appears as a charming establishment, but it’s the culinary magic happening inside that truly shines. For those who demand nothing less than excellence, El Vaquero delivers it in every dish.

Excellent service and the food is decent tex mex. Biggest downside is the prices have inflated heavily for what it is, this chain used to be a great deal. Now they're pushing $20+ per plate with a drink.

I love this place. It’s been a long time since I have eaten here. I live in south Florida and nothing compares. The hot salsa is awesome.

The restaurant was packed but we were seated immediately upon arrival. The servers were attentive and friendly. Restaurant is outdated and a bit worn down. The tortilla chips were stale and the food was of lower quality. The vegetable fajitas had no flavor and consisted of mostly undercooked onions with a few peppers. The skirt steak was charred, greasy and fatty . We were very disappointed with the entire meal and experience after reading the reviews on open table.
