El Vaquero Restaurant

Specialties We specialize in authentic homemade recipes and fresh new recipes with a sustainable approach using vegetables from our garden and local growers. History Established in 1989 Ever changing menu with fresh new ingredients. We pride ourselves in using 80% sustainable practices. Our vegetable garden is located a couple miles from the restaurant location where we grow everything from tomatoes to eggplant. Some years are better than others mother nature and the moon permitting.  It's labor intensive and time consuming, but you will notice the difference in our sauces which will make or break a dish. If you're not familiar with authentic, fresh sustainable flavors we invite you to visit us. Meet the Business Owner: Lupe, Juan, JC, Ariana, Liz and Denise. V. We're self-taught chefs cooking old family recipes in a family setting restaurant using sustainable ingredients for 22 years. We all grew up in the business from a very young age and the kitchen like in any family is the focal point of the family. We spent hours creating and re-creating the menu.  We use the same flavors our old family grandmothers and aunts used for years, but we also never miss an opportunity to add new recipes and fresh ideas from our travels. Comfort foods or 'Comida Casera' is something else you will notice. All these ideas are reflected in our menu. The end result is a menu with dishes that we enjoy and have been big hits with our loyal customers for years.
