“Best ramen hands down! I travel from Seguin as often as I can to enjoy this delicious broth and noodles. Staff is always friendly and prompt. 😊“

“Amazing food and service! My new favorite burger place. Everything is delicious and fresh. Had the double classic that was a perfect amount of crispy edges and flavor. Don’t miss the vanilla shake— 10/10!“

“Really enjoyed our meal there this last Saturday. When I attended college at SWT back in the '80's this was the high end go to place...especially for parent visiting from out of town. Now I am the parent as we visited for a Sigma Chi reunion and to show my HS senior step son the campus. It felt good and JORDAN, our waitress was OUTSTANDING. It felt good being there.“

“we LOVE the The Pita Shop!! its great food and large portions! Highly reccommend you stop by and get the bowl. Support local business AND get something great to eat!“

“We recently moved to San Marcos and visited Roughhouse Brewing for the first time on Friday evening. On a map, it seemed a lift to get there, but it was less than 20 minutes and an easy drive from our house in South San Marcos - glad we finally did it! This is a beautiful property and building. The staff was friendly and let us try plenty of beer samples before deciding. The beer is quality, and I appreciate they have some wine selections for someone who isn't a beer drinker or doesn't feel like beer during their visit. We really appreciated that they have a kitchen. It's mainly bar snacks and sandwiches, but the sandwich combinations they offer are top notch. We had the queso (great!), the Roughhouse Reuben and Big Italian, both excellent. Highly recommend folks visit Roughhouse!“

“Hands down, the absolute best tacos al pastor in San Marcos! I will eventually try everything else, but hard to argue with perfection.“

“I’m from Fort Worth and was looking for some late night food and came to Jax and 10/10 recommended if you’re looking for a good burger spot“

“This place is definitely rated ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ great food ? the most amazing women work in this little stand… I am a very happy repeat customer ?“

“The best restaurant in San Marcos! So happy that it is now 100% gluten free. They should advertise this more. A lot of people with celiac or gluten sensitivity would love it.“

“Today was my first time getting tacos from TMR❤️ I’m absolutely in love!! The best tacos in San Marcos!! 100% recommended☺️ I’ll be coming back for sure and I’ll tell all my friends about this place! It’s well deserved..“

“Great food fast friendly service“

“I've been here many times over the years. I think this is, by far, the best Thai food in San Marcos. The food is always fresh and flavorful. On my most recent visit I got the yellow curry with veggies to go. The veggies were nice and fresh. What a great healthy meal!“

“Alex was our server and expand the menus to us and really enjoyed the food we we’ll return soon Thanks Debby Curcoe“

“My waitress from Boston was excellent and attentive. her name was Tracy B“

“We just had our Jack C. Hays High School 50th Reunion at Ivar's River Pub, Saturday, Oct 4th, 11am-2pm. It was an amazing gathering; the outdoor venue incomparable because of the gem of the San Marcos River view, the drinks and food delicious, the service great, and working with Denele Gunnarson, VP of Ivar's was refreshing. Thank you Denele and Ivar's River Pub for helping make our 50th Reunion so memorable! The 'spirit' of Ivar Gunnarson and his legacy is alive and well on the beautiful banks of the San Marcos River. Gerrel Williams, Chair of the 50th and Marieta Hutchison, 1975 Hays H.S. Class President.“

“Such a cute Asian market! I love that it basically has everything you need for good prices as well. My boyfriend LOVES the ramen there and would get like 7-10 packs of them for around $20 ! Definitely recommend and they have a small Thai restaurant inside. 10/10“

“This is a place that should never be missed or driven past. Absolutely amazing tentative staff who forever surprise me with their kindness. We first came here 14 years ago when it first opened and it has kept its absolute charm. Don't miss this place“

“Most important - these Kolaches are made on the premises ! Fresh and yummy. Friendly, helpful staff. So happy I found this jewel.“

“Love Hopdoddy’s for good, healthy meat options like regenerative beef and bison burgers. This location (San Marcos) has the best staff / customer service of any of them. Carl the GM does a great job leading by example.“

“the menudo was amazing and served quickly 🖤“

“First time here the food was delicious very flavorful. The staff was very welcoming and friendly. Food came fast and hot.“

“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.“

“need an Alvin Ords back in Temple/Belton area sure do miss it“

“My husband and I took our daughter today. The moment we walked in we absolutely loved it. It’s so cute! The food was delicious! We had wonderful service. We are definitely coming back. I’d 10000% recommend this place!“

“This is a lovely little place. Just a charming rustic cafe, but the food is so so good! Get the Migas and the Chicken Fried Steak! There is so much flavor without one thing being overwhelming! The gravy is also phenomenal and I'm not usually a gravy fan. The Salted Caramel Cheesecake was delicious as was the Peanut Butter Pie. The servings were generous and the service was kind, sweet, ans swift. It was a lovely experience!“

“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!!“

“Highly recommend. Hailey made our visit very pleasant The pretzels seasoned in house & chardonnay dijon mustard, martini, & sangria are AMAZING!“

“Great place 10/10 recommend, will go out of my way to go back to this place, brunch was top tier service was top tier“

“Great first time experience. Waitress was very nice and attentive. I ordered the country fried top sirloin with mashed potatoes, scratch baked BBQ beans with brisket and a house salad. Everything was made well. The beans were pretty good, a little spicy but I like spice. Not so much where it's uncomfortable but just enough to give it a nice flavor. The atmosphere was pretty good. Not so loud that you couldn't enjoy a good meal and a nice conversation with family and friends. There wasn't a long wait and we went around 2pm. They pretty much got us seated as soon as we walked in with a party of 5. I definitely recommend eating here. We didn't pay the bill this time around but from the menu prices range between $15-$30.“

“They're very nice, and a pleasure to do business with. You can order over the phone, or walk-in to place your take-out order. Each order is made fresh, and their prices are very reasonable. I enjoy supporting a local business, especially when it's owner operated. They're down to earth, genuine, good people.“

“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 .“

“My daughter and I had lunch and were very pleased with the atmosphere, service, selection and quality of the food. Our dishes came out quickly and the price seemed to be a great value for the food we recieved. Our server, Aiden, was very attentive but not intrusive. Overall, a great lunch! We will be back. A refreshing find.“

“Friendly servers and good food.“

“Isabella was a fantastic waitress!! She brought a lot of energy to our family today as we celebrated our son’s 21st birthday! Thank you Isabella for the great service, always smiling, and the recommendation on our food order!! ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ service!“

“Hubby and I went for dinner and the environment was very welcoming and so were the staff. Julius was our waiter and he was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!!

If you like spicy - the stuffed/fried jalapeños Caesar salad - AMAZING (with fresh pepper) Cajun ribeye - Yummy Fried shrimp - OMGEESH Brussel sprouts - Must try Even the bread with fresh honey butter was great!!! 10/10 will return again and again!!!“

“Enjoyed a nice Italian meal at the Italian Garden. Love that you can bring your own wine. The Chicken Tetrazzini was delish (the one bite I had of Jamie's)“

“Which Wich is hands-down one of my favorite sandwich shops. The ingredients are always fresh, the bread is perfectly toasted, and the customization options are endless so it’s easy to get exactly what you’re craving. The staff is friendly and efficient, and my order is always made just right. Whether I’m in the mood for a classic turkey and provolone or something more creative, Which Wich never disappoints. Highly recommend for a quick, tasty, and satisfying meal!“

“Love Mr Gattis! Very friendly and quick service! Hopefully they will make a comeback in Longview/ Tyler area.“

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

“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.“

“Burgers, chicken quesadillas, potato skins“

“We have visited this location annually specifically for a beef rib and it never disappoints. The brisket and smoked chicken are always good. The sides are always good. Restaurant and bathrooms are always clean. In addition, besides good food the young men working the counter are always friendly and go above and beyond. Great staff.“
