Yelp.com Review - by Ryan H.

5.0 of 5 stars. The first time I went to Herbert's I almost had to be dragged through the door. By the looks of the place, I figured that the food couldn't be all that good. Boy, was I wrong. The food is classic...

Yelp.com Review - by david w.

4.0 of 5 stars. This is a 4star joint all the way. Been eating here since college and never pass an opportunity when passing through SM these days. This is a vintage venue all the way, no bells and whistles. The food...

Yelp.com Review - by Brent R.

4.0 of 5 stars. Kinda shocked at some of the reviews of this place. I've been eating here for decades and have yet to have a bad meal. It's not outstanding, but it's consistantly good. The salsa is spicy, cheap and...

Fake cheese, but yummy!

I prefer cheddar, but the cheese enchiladas are still tasty. I live out of town, but when I'm in San Marcos I will eat at Herbert's.

Yelp.com Review - by Ryan P.

2.0 of 5 stars. I understand that to some people the appeal of eating mass quantities of greasy plates full of Tex-Mex flavored food with chips and salsa is the best thing in the world and is even called great food....

The best

My wife and I have been eating at Herbert's for almost 25 years. The thing that keeps us coming back is its consistency. My favorite is the beef enchiladas. They taste the same today as they did the first time...

My favorite Mexican Food by Barbara H. at InsiderPages

This is the best place to go for enchiladas and chalupas with guacamole. The rest of the menu is just as good. Price is excellent. Just wish it was on my diet and closer to home so I could eat here more often.

Worst Cheese Enchiladas I've ever not eaten

I guess no one around here can tell the difference between real and fake cheese, as every review of this restaurant raves about the cheese enchiladas. I ordered the cheese enchilada plate and was very...

1.0 of 5 stars. When yelp asks "what are we missing?" The answer is nothing. The picture on the sign says it all. You are driving around looking for a place to eat, and you look up at Herbert's sign. It's a...

I lived in San Marcos for 4 years, and Herbert's was and still is some of the best food I have ever had. A few years ago, my husband (who is from Dallas) truly didn't believe me when I said that Herbert's was...

Great TexMex buy Noisy, noisy, noisy

I love the Tex Mex at Herbert's but oh that noise .... not the noise of happy customers, but the noise of wooden chairs scraping on the tile floor and the 19th century serving cart with metal wheels. Combine...

Herbert's was truly my favorite Mexican food restaurant in San Marcos. It's family run - my water glass was often brought to me or filled by someone who couldn't have been over the age of 10. The dish...
