About Black's Barbecue San Marcos

Black's Barbecue San Marcos provides a classic BBQ experience with friendly staff and a variety of meat and side options. Customers have praised the brisket, sausage, and turkey, along with the coleslaw, potato salad, and mac and cheese. The restaurant offers ample indoor and patio seating, with a large parking lot behind the building. Recent reviews highlight the excellent brisket and chicken, as well as good service, especially when accommodating large groups. However, some dishes, like the mac & cheese, have been described as dry and overcooked, while others found certain meats, such as brisket, a bit dry or salty. One visit noted the meat being dry and hard to chew, but overall, the restaurant remains a solid choice for Texas-style BBQ. The staff has been recognized for their helpfulness and hard work, even during busy times. The bar is sometimes closed during certain hours, but the overall quality of food and service continues to be appreciated by many.

Food was absolutely amazing!!! We see why this is one of the top-rated places to eat in San Marcos!!!

We had beef ribs, brisket, and smoked turkey for our meats. There was not one complaint!!! I’m a brisket girl but the smoked turkey won me over!!! The flavor was immaculate and it was juicy! Just be prepared to spend as everything is sold by the pound - not a place I’d recommend on a budget unless you’re grabbing a sammich! Sides were surprisingly good!!! The mac...read full review
