Reviews for El Vaquero Mexican Restaurant in Blue Ash, OH
Food was good but I went for a work event where they paid for the food and tip. The only thing I paid was for was the drinks I... order and I didn?t add a tip because the company I work for was paying them the tip yet they had added an $5 tip to my bill whenI didn?t even write anything in the tip section. It?s only $5 but who knows how much they add extra tip to other people bill Read more
Didn't even eat a chip or place an order. We were greeted with attitude and were given chips with attitude. I've never walked... out of a restaurant before ordering. It was like they didnt want us there. We work around the corner and won't be back. Noexcuse for treating customers that way. As a business owner I don't give one star reviews out lightly. This one was earned. Read more
Portion size not consistent which pricing. I ordered a supersized entree and got nothing but vegetables and a few pieces of... meat. We also received one large bag of chips and one salsa for it. Flavor wasn?t that good either won?t be back. Go to RanchoGrande in Sharonville. Read more
The taco week tacos and margaritas were good. I strongly recommend the carnitas taco with mango pineapple salsa. The enchiladas... were also solid. Service was lacking but that maybe a off night or side affect of COVID restrictions. We'll certainly give itanother try. Read more
We chose El Vaquero over the other Mexican restaurants in the area because we have enjoyed the one in Columbus many times. ... L Pro: -- We were able to sit outside--in fact right on the railing so we had plenty of fresh air and space toourselves; Cons: --When we were finally greeted by a server the first thing I noticed was that he had a significant amount ofblack matter under almost every fingernail. Further, he was not wearing a mask; --Speaking of masks, it was not uncommon to seeservers without them or with them pulled under their noses. --We're used to being served chip and dips immediately, but thisserver asked--twice--if we wanted them and then there was a significant delay before we got them; --Our server's command of theEnglish language was quite limited, and as such he needed help from another person whom we assumed was the manager; And itobviously wasn't just us--when a nearby table of six had difficulty with each of their bills. --We had to ask multiple timesfor chips/dip as well as water. We wanted extra napkins but gave up on that. --Nothing was cleared fro our table during themeal until iI finally stacked thing up and put the at the edge of the table. --Most disappointing was the bland food and weakMargaritas--especially we ordered a $25 pitcher. As mentioned previously, we eat at the Columbus brank often and their serviceand food/drink; --The woman's bathroom was designed for one person at a time which could be problematic on a busy weekend. Foras few of people who were there I would expect it to be cleaner, but the floor was littered wit scraps of paper and the seat hadbeen urinated on. Finally, there wasn't a hook or anything else on which to hang one's person. Thus, one had to hold it on herlap or put it on dirty floor. Suggestions: 1. The manager needs to inspect her/his employees before the shift start--forthings like hygiene (especially under the nails, 2. The manager needs to instruct and demonstrate the proper way Read more
Solid Mexican food. The service is a bit "rushed" at peak times (understandably), but always polite. The food is very good and... there is an outdoor seating area. Go and enjoy! Read more
This place is amazing! It's one of the cleanest and nicest Mexican restaurants I've ever been into. Food is above par as well.... Great service, great food, and great atmosphere! They also have really good happy hour deals! If you love Margaritas or even ifyou don',t when you see one, you will want one! Read more
they were about to close. Didn't realize the time. Food was fresh, service was good and food tasted soooo good. I would... definitely go back. Good prices for the amount of food you get. They aren't skimpy. Read more
