Came down to San Marcos from Dallas to visit FACTS and wanted a nice meal with my husband- this was the best rated so gave it a try. Not many restaurants hit all 3 courses but this one certainly did. Started with duck poutine, followed by pork chop and finished off with crème brûlée. So much fantastic food! Cocktails, wine and service were excellent too.

Food is good, but presentation is realllyyyy lacking. For the price you could go to Eddie Vs and they never miss.

I was invited to this restaurant twice and told it was some of the best food around San Marcos. Unfortunately, this is not the case. I have given the restaurant 2 attempts and both were poor.On my first attempt, I ordered the beef wellington. This can be a tough dish to cook. Unfortunately mine was ordered medium rare and was served well done. The manager was called over and did not offer a replacement or compensation on my bill.Try #2, I decided to go for the tuna. Once again, extremely disappointed. Believe it or not, I have had better tuna at the airport! This was tough and dried out.If you need a nice place to eat and don't care about the quality of the food, this is a local spot that will work just fine. However, I would prefer to make the trip to Austin or New Braunfels and get a feel that is better quality, better atmosphere and for less cost.

Food was excellent. Service was not to par..Kid-friendliness: Have chicken tenders and fruit for the kids. They where awesome. My son only eats chick fila and pizza but he tore these up
Husband and I had a nice date night out. We sat at the bar, had a fabulous house margarita on the rocks and shared a number of appetizers with the Shokupan and Bacon-Wrapped Poblano being 2 of our favorites. Highly recommend and we will definitely be back.

I had the redfish fillet off the lunch menu, I'm 99% sure it was tilapia. For the price, I would at least expect farmed redfish. Everyone else in my group had something different, and they enjoyed it. Beer was cold. Service was good.

Our Waitress was helpful. Service is rated overall. Food was okay. There was a guy who looked as if he was in a manager role who looked at us funny and frowned often. He had a blonde ponytail. Rather unpleasant and odd behavior. He would only greet certain people. Which is something we have experienced and seen in other places here. We definitely do not recommend and have never returned.Kid-friendliness: Not kid friendly.

Nice, small, cozy place for quiet talks or even dates, very good service, lots of variety of drinks and happy hour hours during the week :)
