Delicious authentic Mexican food served up hot and fresh by friendly wait staff. Situated in a small strip center, this place is a hidden gem. Their charro beans are so flavorful and good! The street tacos, chicken gorditas and flautas are my go tos. Don't forget to ask for the salsa verde. You won't be disappointed. They recently added a full bar and it's one of my favorite places to catch up with the girls on a Friday night.

We attended a birthday dinner at Vasquez #3 and it DID NOT DISAPPOINT! It was fight night when we went they had a large screen showing the fight & also a DJ and a dance floor with colorful lights and upbeat music to keep the night going! The food was great! I had mushroom street tacos w potato's and my significant other had the nopales quesadilla! They were both delicious! The salsa was thin but don't let it fool you, it packed the perfect amount of heat with tons of flavor! The newly added FULL BAR was great we tried margaritas, Palomas and Mexican martinis, we loved them all! The waitstaff was up beat and very attentive to our big top! Everyone's checks were correct and all items delivered timely! Thanks to the Vasquez team for a memorable night, can't wait to come back

We love this place. We have lived nearby for a few years, and have dined in a number of times, but usually we pick up breakfast tacos to go. Those breakfast tacos are PACKED -- delicious and full of fillings. Always more salsas provided than we need, which we use for other meals at home lol. HOWEVER, it is worth coming here in person -- the food is delicious and fresh and the service is top notch. You get to keep the red and green salsa dispensers on your table, so you never run out. All the servers take care of all the tables, and it really makes you feel like they care. The servers wear shirts that mention their great customer service, so the business knows, and cares, and it shows. The restaurant is clean and well cared for, there are really cool/convenient condiment stands on the tables that hold a paper towel roll (so smart!!), and the place is decorated bright and colorful with some really cool paintings, including a copycat Austin mural on one wall with their name. This is a regular go-to spot that has never disappointed and was one of the first places to reliably provide takeout during the pandemic. This review is long overdue.

Great spot for a quick bite, particularly if you're keen on some breakfast. Breakfast plates are loaded with perfectly cooked potatoes, refried beans, eggs your way and with bacon, ham or sausage, and tortillas. Breakfast tacos, particularly the taco madre, are chock full of ingredients. Usually greeted as you come in. Seat yourself. Service is friendly and efficient. Parking out front in the strip mall. Takes cards and cash. Note: Now open for dinner Thursday through to Saturday nights.

We eat breakfast at Vasquez #3 often. Their migas with cheese are my favorite. I'm gluten free and I don't have to worry when I eat here as long as I get corn tortillas. Their chips and salsa are addicting! Go give them a try!

This is mine and my husband's favorite taco place! Best breakfast tacos. Their Barbacoa is so amazing! Their salsa is just right. Also, if you haven't tried their wedding cookies.. you should because they are delicious as well! The manager/owner and all of the workers are so welcoming and considerate. Always with a smile on their faces and very attentive and super hard workers. I just love this place!

First time here. Our waitress was nice and came back to check in and refill our drinks. We asked for chips and salsa very good. The food was delicious. We had barbacoa plate which had lots of flavor and very generous portions of beans and potatoes, our daughter had 2 barbacoa tacos and my husband had a barbacoa taco and a bean cheese taco also very generous portions. The only thing was they don't have authentic flour tortillas which is huge which was disappointing because their food was absolutely delicious.
