We had about 15 people for our granddaughter's 1st birthday celebration at lunch. Food and service were very good, but there was so much chaos and noise that it made it difficult to talk together. The waiter that sang a happy birthday song in Spanish was excellent. They gave a very nice garden area outside that is suitable for weddings, etc. We sat out there after lunch and opened presents in the nice quiet solitude.

Nice atmosphere. Good food and service. We had the fajitas and brisket tacos off the lunch menu. Chips and salsa were great as well as our main dishes.

When Joe T Garcias was too busy we discovered Los Vaqueros. A very capable Tex-Mex restaurant. We split chicken and steak fajitas. The beef was the most tender I’ve ever had. The chips were warm with a deep corn flavor.
However tender the beef was, it lacked any flavor. Just kind of bland. But it was reasonably priced. A couple of more peeves: even though the menu says the medium portion is good for two people you have to pay extra for another side of rice and beans. Plus, no cheese or sour cream. Tsk, tsk.
But the biggest downer was the noise level. My wife and I, sitting next to each other had to yell to have a conversation.

We got to back Los Vaqueros. We ate there when they first opened. My husband coworker’s in-laws opened it years ago. And then my coworkers would eat here at lunch every so often. It is still just as good as when we first had a date there.

Friday evening during the Christmas holiday season. We had reservation for 8 and 13 showed up but had to wait only a short time. We were graciously accommodated and our server was excellent!
I haven’t eaten here in many years and I must say, the quality & taste of the food has taken a huge leap toward excellence. Their salsa is the best I’ve ever had the Chicken Quesadilla I ordered was so tender & flavorful! This is one of the best Mexican dinners I’ve had in a while. Everyone in our group complimented the food & several of us bought big tubs of salsa to take home.

This is a very nice place to come and visit. Have a celebration.
The waitresses are definitely friendly and helpful.
What I observed this is a very clean environment.
Lots of places to sit. Looks like they have rooms that you can reserve for your special occasions.
Well lit and has a wonderful ambiance.
The food is very flavorful and Rich.
Be careful because the plates are hot when they bring out your food.
The menu has a lot to choose from.
Today I chose chile rellenos and chicken enchiladas.
If you can see the combination of cheeses are ooey gooey.
As well as tasty.
The chicken enchiladas were oh-so-good with a combination of sour cream and spices for the topping.
The salsa! Oh my. For my Pace had just the right amount of bite.
The sweet tea is delicious.
The lemonade taste reconstituted.
The flavor of the beans were awesome. The beans were just a tad bit too firm for me.
I have had before sopapillas but none like these.
Tender as mother's love.
Almost eye rolling good.
Topped with honey and butter!
Bite that and you might slap somebody. Today on a scale from 1 to 5. I will get you a 4!
WORD of the day is! Traditional!
The servers are sensational!
There is plenty of parking in the parking lot.
When you get to the front and see all the stairs.
Don't worry honey they have wheelchair access!
There is a lot of nostalgia.
And plenty of novelty items to look at.
Spacious with plenty of room to walkthrough.(for those who are blessed with more than most)
If you enjoy my reviews be sure to like and follow.

I would like to thank the wait staff at Los Vaquersos for their excellent service for my brother in laws wedding reception. The food and service were 5 🌟 stars. We also enjoyed the beautiful scenery as well. I highly recommend visiting this restaurant.

This is a large Texas restaurant with a lot going on inside. Great food and service. I would come back here the next time I’m in Texas. Salsa on the table is definitely homemade and has a nice kick from the jalapeños. The margaritas here are very good as well, and are a great start to a night at the Stockyards.
Brandon Gallagher
Wow, this place is a hidden gem! So glad we gave it a try. I had this chicken specialty dish with mushrooms that was out of this world! The sauce was so flavorful & unique. The flan was delicious too!
It was also incredible service! Our guy kept a good eye on us, and stopped by at just the right times without being intrusive.
And it's massive too, stockyards themed of course. Looked like they had a room for special events... I'll be back for sure!
Kendall Casaccio
Such a nice place! Food is delicious, bottomless chips, with fresh salsa.
Bryan Ricci
I loved this restaurant! The salsa was spicy but oh so good! Mouth watering fajitas and loved the atmosphere!
Also great location to host rehearsal dinner, birthdays, graduations or any event! Very reasonably priced and they let you pick color for charger, napkins and table runner

Went to Stockyards and stopped in to grab a quick lunch. The food was great, the server could have been a bit better but she was fine. She was older and it seemed she was remembering the teas. Kept bringing sweet when we had un sweet and refilling glasses with wrong tea. I'll still continue to go here because the overall food and service is always top-notch.

My sister-in-law did her wedding reception here. Nice place good food. Had a good time.
Juan Farias
It's been at least over a decade since I've been here and it was still homey/welcoming to my family and Jesus L was our server and he has done a fantastic job for our table! The food was excellent and fresh! Thank y'all for a great experience!
Nancy Ramos
The only good food was the chips and salsa. I had the chicken enchiladas which were very dry. It was difficult to flag down the waiter to refill our water. We were a large party and no one was happy with their meal. One of the party ordered nachos and had a spider walk out of it. The waiter was notified. We all decided we would not be returning there.
Lisa Lawrence
Understaffed to handle two parties and their regular restaurant attendance on a Friday night. We had wedding party of 27 and there was great difficulty on the part of the staff and kitchen getting all the drinks and orders to the table in a timely manner. My plate was last and cold when it finally arrived.
I had never been to Los Vaqueros and many in our party were from out of town and out of state. Although this restaurant came highly recommended, in hindsight, it would have never been my choice for Mexican food for our out of state guests. The food was extremely bland and NOT traditional.
I am always willing to give a restaurant a second chance but who knows when that would be.
Mary Beth Cox
We had the most beautiful, fun, and perfectly extraordinary wedding in the Gardens at Los Vaqueros! Vicki and her team were top notch from start to finish and served up a delicious meal for 176 of our family and friends. It was beyond a fairy tale and the food was the best I've EVER had at any wedding! What an amazing experience for a wonderful and special day! Thank you so much!!
Yolie Flowers
I ordered a sweet tea got an unsweeted one instead. Had to get waiter to bring me a sweeten one. The entree I ordered wasn't that good and the salsa had way to much tomatoes and to top it off the tortillas are store bought not even home made. I will not be back
Leticia Govea
Always a pleasure to dine at Vaqueros. Their service and food never disappoints. It has been several years since I have experienced their Gardens and i must say that they have done a great job out there.
