“Overall decent experience. I'm sure the disc golf course down the road and the college are big reasons for this establishment's success. We ate outside while it was around 50 degrees.I ordered the veggie nachos, and it was simply grilled onions and peppers with cheese, and the amount of those veggies did not equate to the high price of the base dish. The overall flavor was drowned in the white quest used on the chips. I asked for the hot sauces and was given red and green salsa. The red was mild but flavorful, and the green was the hot one. It had a nice flavor. Both added depth to the otherwise bland vegetables and chips.Lengua was added to the plate, which was an extra $5. There was a decent amount, but the lengua only had a slightly seasoned flavor. Surprisingly, it was fairly dry. I was expecting something a little more juicy and marinated.Would go again.“
“This review is for a visit on a Friday night for dinner. Large crowd but the wait time was only 10 minutes.Wow, this place is amazing! Very clean, beautifully decorated, great service, fresh ingredients, and delicious food. This was our first visit, but we will definitely be going back! Highly recommend this restaurant.“
“We were here on New Year’s Day with a large crew. The staff was wonderful and very patient with our kids table which is always greatly appreciated. The food was excellent and the portions were very generous. We would make a special trip to Central just to eat here because it was so “
“Today was my husbands birthday and being new to the area we decided to go by the reviews and we are so glad we did. The food was delicious and the service was excellent. Let’s talk about the beautiful decor, wow absolutely gorgeous. We highly recommend this place.“
“This place has turned around!! The food is fantastic, fresh made daily! So much flavor and our service was amazing. Katia made us feel like family. All the staff were great! I had the Molecajete and it was superb. My wife had a veggie taco with rice and beans. The chip and salsa makes Ponchos looks very sad. This place is more of a bar vibe but Katia made my lil girl feel very special. Don’t miss out on the grand re-opening.The desserts were good as well I had the smores churros and they were amazing. Everything we got was super shareable so this place is definitely affordable!Vegetarian options: Fresh veggies“
“The food was great piping hot, served quickly. The only bad thing was that the waiter failed to refill my drink. Nice and clean. It's a very busy place, I was seated fast. Waited on fast. If not for the drink issue, it would've been 5 stars. I will and have eaten there since then. Dine in or carry out. Their not skimpy with the food. Price vs. proportion is a good value.Parking: This restaurant is in a small strip mall. There is plenty of parking directly at the door and a medium-sized lot.Kid-friendliness: Plenty of seating, customers were not loud or unruly. There were children present while I was there.Wheelchair accessibility: Sidewalk has wheelchair ramp and parking.“
“This is a really fantastic place! The restaurant itself is really cozy and is designed really well. Cool decor. The owner, Nacho, is a great guy and you can tell he appreciates his customers. The last time we were there I watched him talking and laughing with several customers like they were family.But the food? Amazing! We're from out of state, but every time we visit my in-laws, I'm excited to come eat here. Their chili poblano with chicken is hands down the best I've ever had at any restaurant. And all the food there is consistently delicious.Whether you visiting or live here, you gotta check this place out!“
“I can’t recommend this place enough! The food is delicious! They have a homemade salsa bar (yum!), really good margaritas, outstanding queso and the best refried beans I’ve ever had! And on top of that it’s family owned with top notch service. Great people and great prices! Will definitely be making this a regular on our trips to Clemson!“
“The staff here are the embodiment of southern hospitality. Super friendly and attentive and it wasn't too busy at what would probably have been prime time. The food was good and cooked fresh and in todays economy the price was a great bargain.“
“I went to Vaqueros last night about 7:00. We ate outside; the service was fast and friendly. I had La Favorita. Shrimp and fish and vegetables were cooked perfectly and fresh. We especially enjoyed sampling the salsa bar which had something for every spice palate. We will definitely go back!“
“This tiny restaurant is easy to miss, but it's really fantastic. The menu is simple but offers a wide variety of protein choices, and there's enough to visit a few times without ordering the same thing. It's super authentic, and the food was really great. A perfect example of how hole-in-the-wall restaurants are often the best.“
