El Vaquero is a fantastic place to dine. The service is top-notch, and the food is both exquisite and delightful. The portion sizes are perfect. I had a wonderful experience eating here and I highly recommend it. Don't just take my word for it—go and try it for yourself! A big thank you to the staff at El Vaquero; keep up the amazing work. Until next time! This is truly authentic Mexican cuisine. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

I've visited this restaurant several times since I have a cabin nearby, and I'm really pleased to have a Mexican dining option in Arnold, especially with so few food choices. Overall, the food is quite good; while it may not be top-tier Mexican cuisine, I’d rate it a solid 4 stars for its location. So why not give it 5 stars? There are a few things I'd change if I were in charge. First, I think they should allow dogs on the outdoor deck; it seems harmless, especially since every other place in town permits it. Second, I’d encourage them to obtain a full liquor license, as they currently only offer beer and wine. The only dish I’d recommend avoiding is their Chile Relleno; it definitely needs a better recipe. Everything else I’ve tried has been enjoyable.
