“Easily one of my favorite spots in San Marcos

Balcón Comedor y Bar totally blew me away. The vibe is chill but stylish — great music, great energy, and the kind of place you could post up for hours with friends and a couple of margaritas.

We started with the carne asada fries and elote asado, and honestly… they might be the best I’ve had. The fries were loaded (in the best way) and the elote had the perfect balance of spice, lime, and cheese. Just unreal.

I went with the al pastor taco and the Cali Burrito — and wow. The burrito was massive, cheesy, and packed with carne asada and fries inside (basically everything you crave at once). The taco had just the right kick, with a sweet touch from the pineapple. You can tell they put real love into every dish.

What really made the night was Javier, the owner — he came by to check on us, and you could tell how much he cares about the food and the people. Super genuine guy, and that vibe trickles down to the whole staff.

If you’re in San Marcos and love modern Mexican food, this place is a must. Great drinks, amazing food, and a team that actually makes you feel welcome. Can’t wait to go back.

Tip: Come hungry. You’re gonna want to try everything.“

“We sat at the bar enjoying fabulous cocktails, fresh, crisp chips and chunky, delicious, homestyle salsa rojo. The subdued, well placed lighting, creates a welcoming and cozy ambiance. Bartenders and waitstaff are very professional and courteous. Later we ordered Tortilla Soup. The rich, savory broth was a delight, with tender chicken, a creamy base, and perfectly fried tortilla strips adding a satisfying crunch that balanced the smooth, rich flavors. This experience was a symphony of sights, and tastes, where a delicious, comforting bowl of soup felt like a special treat in an extraordinary setting. We are looking forward to returning here again to experience more food and cocktail options.“

“Went thru drive thru this morning the girl at drive thru window was very friendly & OMG !!! I Have never had such an amazing Horchata...If you like Horchata I highly recommend you try it at Mario's Rest. !! you will not regret it 😋“

“Best birria I’ve had hands down and charro beans are perfect my gf had the tacos bistek very good aswell I’m from Fort Worth but stopped here and now this will be a go to spot from now on 👏“

“I have to say the restaurant was off the chain! The food was superb and extremely reasonable prices.. We need to give a shout out to our waitress Kiley who was Magnificent. She is definitely 5 star restaurant quality. We have been to very upscale restaurants and not had half of the amazing service she provided. When you go ask for Kiley!!“

“It’s over all a good place, the food is good and the people are nice however my biggest concern is they do not update the price of foods online to reflect the in house menu. For example the “super taco” used to be 4.99 and it still reflects that online however after the most recent visit there the price has gone up to 10 dollars with tax. Other than that a great place.“

“the menudo was amazing and served quickly 🖤“

“Food was good, everyone was nice
But it was pretty pricey for the three of us , including 3 drinks we walked out paying $55.00 for are oder. We ordered 2 breakfast tacos
5 street tacos and 1 LG bean and cheese burrito with potatoes.. 2 Pepsi and 1 sweet tea. Drinks were 3.25 each including the refill ($15) I never thought about having to pay for a refill if there asking if we wanted one.SMH.I did enjoy the food .“

“This is the best taqueria good service and good quality food“

“Friendly servers and good food.“

“Great Great breakfast tacos“

“Freshest tortillas and salsa, plenty of flavor, and HOT food. We stopped in for a fast early morning bite. I wish I lived close by, the food was so good. Another review mentions cash only, so I'll mention they accept cards. The chorizo bean breakfast taco is my recommendation!“

“I am so glad we found another good place to eat near home. We ordered carnitas tacos and torta. Major plus that we can add our own amount of cilantro, onion and lime as they have it on the table. You get 4 choices of salsas and the flavors are great, different levels of spice. The owner is also super friendly. 10/10 recommend. Uno de los mejores lugares de comida Mexicana en Kyle. Las carnitas están ricas y me encanta que tienes 4 salsa para escoger. Súper recomendable!!“

“SAD to say, this place has crossed over to the dark side. VERY very dissapointed!! Horrible food!! The food is not the same as it used to be. The cheese enchiladas are horrible, it had this watery yellow stuff all over it, NO chili gravy, NO enchilada sauce. The rice and beans were horrible - NO flavor, portion is ridiculously teeny tiny, beans were watery. NEVER GOING BACK! THIS IS THE 2ND TIME, 2ND LOCATION, FOR THIS UNNACCEPTABLE HORRIBLE FOOD.“

“good fast taco is the morning. sad to say no more 3 taco specials 😭 but still very affordable.“

“I almost passed this little spot for breakfast tacos up for the TXB across the street...that would have been a HUGE MISTAKE. I had the Mexicana tacos and added cheese along with sausage patties on the side....chop the sausage and throw it in the taco....HELLLLLLLL YAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSS!!!!!“

“5 Mini Tacos (carne asada) with grilled onions, cilantro on corn tortillas and grilled jalapeño with refreshing watermelon agua fresca 🍉 all for $11 - These are made to order, hot and delicious and offer great service and options for breakfast, lunch and dinner plates and its Cash Only!!“

“great service friendly staff and great authentic Mexican food“

“The limonade was so good and refreshing. I got a mini tripa taco and a mini al pastor taco and they were so satisfying, I felt like I was visiting Mexico again. The charro beans had just the right amount of spice. Very good overall. My new favorite Mexican food place.“

“One of my best friends showed me this place, and I'm so glad he did. I have become obsessed with their flautas. They don't skimp on the toppings WHICH I LOVE. They're reasonably priced and always fresh. The red salsa is absolutely fire. I've had quite a bit of their tacos too, and haven't been disappointed with anything I've got from here. I love that this place is in a convenient location from my house, too.“

“Great food, staff is always friendly“

“In town for service call, seen this place as I was heading to customer. So glad I stopped by and got me some of these delicious tacos. Carne Guisada was on point, chorizo n papas full of flavor and bacon, egg, and potatoes all good especially with the home made tortillas! Stop by when you come through here, you will be glad you did. Roberto gave great customer service as well..“

“Just received the most perfect Uber eats order, food and order both 10/10. I made a few extra requests and they did not disappoint, food was amazing“

“Tamales are tasty and huge. Not too spicy, just a perfect kick. I share my food with co-workers and they said the tamales are the best they ever had. The owner is real nice and real attentive. She love what she do and you notice with the quality she delivers. I ordered 24 tamales, and next day i was forced to go back for more. The Raja Tamales are amazing!!One of my favorite spot for my Mexican Cravings!!No longer at location, they moved….“
