Perfect Brunch Spot! Place is beautiful and atmosphere is peaceful yet there is music to bump to while you are eating and having a few drinks. Kayla was my waiter and delivered exceptional customer service! Last point is there is a DJ with great music

It’s a new place and really nice inside. Very good vibe. Servers, bartenders and hostesses were very welcoming. We just came to check it out and we weren’t disappointed. We ordered drinks and guacamole. The presentation of everything was great. The only thing was that the entrees were a little expensive just perusing the menu. I would definitely go back for the guacamole because it was great.

The food is good. However, we got a quesadilla that was overpriced and only came with two slices. Where’s the rest?? The waitress barely attended us and gratuity was 20%. Honestly she did not deserve that much for a shitty service.

Cozy joint with a vibrant atmosphere.
The food was delicious. I ordered three tacos; carnitas, chicken and carne asada. They were all delicious but the carne asada was my favorite
While the food and atmosphere were great, there were some things I didn’t particularly enjoy:
A can of soda is $3. That’s just outright ridiculous. Comparable restaurants are in the $2-3 range for fountain drinks with unlimited refills
Gratuity is automatically added. I ate in a party of 2 and a 15% gratuity was automatically added to my bill. I understand that is common for larger parties, but I find it odd for a small party.
The volume of the music was a lot. When we were seated I didn’t recall any music. It got louder several times as we ate, making it difficult to have a conversation. When we left we noticed a DJ that wasn’t there when we entered. I guess we came during some sort of special event.

El Vago is our favorite place to go out! The drinks are amazing, delicious! The food also is delicious! The music is great, reggaeton, the vibe is colorful and fun. El Vago is a hidden gem, friendly staff who always makes us feel welcome. Check them out! If we only go once in a month we feel like it’s been too long.

El Vago is such a cute spot! My girl friend and I went to try it out and it was such a cozy atmosphere. We got tacos and they were delicious along with our drinks. They even had a DJ come in later on in the night and the music was BUMPING! I do want to say, I think they should give a little more corn for what they charge ($12) it was literally only one small piece of corn cut in half. Nonetheless, it was really yummy!

We had an AMAZING time here at Vagos !!! The atmosphere was amazing and they had very good music selection and the food was to die for!! Our waitress Lori was super friendly and had great customer service. They have a variety of different Mexican dishes to traditional, and also savory and their desserts are very, very good. 10/10 experience
