El Vaquero Mexican Restaurant — Restaurant in Frenchtown Charter Township

Edit from the second trip to this place: DO NOT ORDER NO 30. The description makes it sound extremely delicious but it is far from it. It was so bad we returned it. The amount of meat on that plate was ridiculous. Also, in the description it says it comes with guacamole and when we asked for it we were told it doesn't. Possibly it's not something ordered often but believe me, do not get burnt. See pictures as I took one of that plate. Also, be careful when you order draft as the prices on the menu are for tall and when you ask for tall they bring you the largest size and charge you double the price. The beef tips in the chimichangas were absolutely delicious but the chimichangas are supposed to be deep fried and they came out soggy. I'm a little disappointed with this place to be honest

We decided to give this restaurant a try on our way from Toledo to Michigan and it turned out to be a delicious surprise. Loved the staff, everyone was so friendly and helpful. The food was delicious as well and the portions were very large. The margarita that I chose was strawberry flavored but I wouldn't recommend it as it wasn't anything special. Everything else tasted amazing. We ordered the chicken salad and there was something in the chicken seasoning that made it taste very good. We also ordered fajitas and I was impressed with the amount of food and veggies it came with. And we only ordered a single order! The quality of the meat was okay though. I've had better. Also, I wish they added cheese to it because it would make it taste even better. Will...

I don’t understand how this place has so many positive reviews! I was told it’s under new management from the last time my mom and I went there so we decided to try it again. Mom got the flautas (sp?) which she gets everywhere she goes and she couldn’t even eat them because they were so gross. I had major surgery 2 years ago so I can’t digest meat. I ordered something without meat and when they came out with the food they brought me chicken and peppers. She told me they ran out of what I ordered so they made the chicken for me. I had told her twice that I cannot digest meat yet they brought out something I couldn’t eat. Then they had the audacity to charge me for it even though I had to have her send it back and it never even touched the table and I was unable to eat anything at all. Mom hates to step on toes so she paid for it and didn’t even want to talk to the manager, she just wanted to leave because she was so disgusted and upset because I couldn’t eat anything on the menu. The waitress had absolutely no personality and barely said anything to us, if you asked her a question about the menu she just said “I don’t know” instead of asking someone who did know. She acted like I was being picky when she brought out the chicken. My mom and I have never eaten such bad Mexican. We’re sticking...

Me and my husband frequent this establishment often especially prior covid. During the peak of Covid we would get to go and it was most often not up to par. We never complained because we were just happy to get food knowing the circumstances of of our current state. Today, October 22, 2021, though not quite full pandemic phase we ordered our “regular” which included a remake free of charge “FRESH “ guacamole bowl. It was inedible due to the access amount of salt. Believe me, I love salt and probably eat it more than I should but this just hurt. I debating about calling again because I feel bad about these types of situations but, I made the call I regret. I was told that they do not ever want to make me a fresh guacamole bowl again. I was not by no means looking for a free meal, and definitely don’t expect it. I was not expecting to be treated as the PROBLEM! What I want is food that is edible. Their food is relatively good despite the problems I had with their guacamole bowl. Just be careful to address issues with their food because they will belittle you. I’m so disappointed in the resolution that this business took. I will be looking for a new...
