Los Vaqueros West

First time eating here and we can't wait to go back. The food and service was excellent. Ask for Becky. She was wonderful!

We visited the restaurant on a bustling Friday night, part of a rather large birthday party.Our main waitress, Becky (if I recall correctly), did a fantastic job. She expertly managed the room with the skill of a seasoned pro.My wife ordered a spicy ranch water, while I stuck with my usual, unsweet tea.Some birthday guests noted a peculiar taste in the water. My cousin's husband, Monty, even joked about looking for minnows in his glass. I didn't find the water or tea unpleasant, perhaps they just have more refined palates.The sectioned-off room was splendid, though I was mildly annoyed by a crooked picture hanging too high to fix myself.Both my wife and I ordered the carne asada. I always enjoy a well-charred steak covered in grilled onions.The salsa and chips were good, though I would have preferred a bit more spice.My wife's spicy ranch water looked appealing, though she mentioned it could use more kick, both in heat and alcohol content. She ordered another, so it couldn't have been too bad.When the entree arrived, it was a bit underwhelming visually for a $24 dish. The charro beans were tasty, though a tad salty. There was a single onion slice atop the steak. The steak itself was about a quarter-inch thick, overcooked, and lacked any charred edges. It almost looked sous vide, with a uniform grayish color throughout.The sliced avocados and tomatoes added a nice touch, and the rice was well-cooked with good flavor.Overall, while the entree was disappointing, the excellent service and overall experience somewhat compensated for it.

Not really impressed with this place. The service was okay, not bad not amazing. The restaurant itself is nice inside, I think you could drive by several times and not realize it was a restaurant. It was busy but we didn't have to wait so that was nice. The food was very mediocre. Chips and salsa were okay, they were what I call the "frito" style chips. We had chicken fajitas and 3 chile rellanos, neither were very good and I'm not sure if a single person at our table finished our meal. Overall, decent place to try, but I wouldn't ever go back. Nothing about it was horrible, but TEX-MEX is super common in this area and there are several significantly better options.

Great selection of Mexican food. The lunch specials are always good. Bar makes great drinks. Good wait staff. Local hangout.

My SO and I just moved to the area and have started trying out some of the local eats. This was on our list to try., especially for a nice margarita or happy hour. The atmosphere is cute with a patio out front, and the inside decor is also nice. The wait staff are pretty friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. I think we tried a tamale, enchiladas, regular taco and street tacos. The street tacos were by far our favorite and the margaritas were decent. We would come back and try a few other things on the menu.

Not impressed with the food whatsoever. My meal was just beef in a tortilla no seasoning no cheese nothing. Would not recommend whatsoever.Service not good either very slow and not very many people.

Moved to Aledo almost two years ago and while I was pregnant with my third, this is all I craved. Came to give a review because even without expecting a baby, it's some of the best authentic Mexican food in the area. Margs are yummy too. 10/10

One of our favorite lunch places. Staff is friendly and competent. Lunch prices are affordable. Food is consistently good. We always over indulge. My favorite dinner is the Kiki's Special but you can get the same meal at lunch prices with the enchiladas (minus one enchilada).

The food and service was good., however, the portion size is smaller than I would have liked especially for the price. I purchased a large quesadilla and what they brought me was very petite small. It almost looked like a kids meal that I have purchased at other Mexican restaurants. Don't know if I'll be back unless they lower their prices or up their portion sizes

Food was good. Service was horrible. We ate here after the lunch crowd (not busy). We ordered our meal and two cocktails and I also asked for more salsa. Food was delivered and we didn't have our cocktails yet. My wife noticed them at the bar. Our waitress passed them several times so my wife got up to get them. Waitress never came by to check on us and never brought the salsa I asked for. So I went and got my own salsa. Waitress was totally oblivious to the fact that we had to serve ourselves.
