So when I want to take a break from my meat eater tendencies I go to Fresco. My order is always right even when I order online. Lots of veggie varieties and I tend to prefer the tofu here to the other animal based proteins. Great amount of food for the price. The dining area is ok. I do appreciate that it has indoor and outdoor seating. read more

Fantastic experience!! Great healthy option and great atmosphere!! I love really love all the delicious options they have available. read more

Love the food here! Everytime I bring someone they love it too! It's healthy and delicious which is a hard combo to find. I also like to pick up my food to go (can order ahead and just pick it up), then eat it while I get my car washed at the Wash Tub which is super close. read more

Fresh food. Really nice and competent employees. Decent price. Clean and well-managed. It's another "bowl" place with some unique and yummy options. Great place to grab some healthy food and go. read more

I love the food at Fresco. Fresh always. Owner and staff are very nice. So much food, I usually take half of it home for later!

We loveeeeee getting food here it's so good but I always feel so tired and bloated after. I found out they use canola oil in a lot of the items so I'm not sure if that's affecting me or what but I just wanted to put this out there incase anyone else is sensitive to oils like I am. read more

My friend and I were looking for a good salad. This place popped up on my search. Let me tell you it was SO GOOD! Everything about the experience from when we arrived until we walked out the door was amazing! Customer service was great and come to find out we met the owner who was very chatty and also super helpful when we were making our selections for the salad. The place was super clean and inviting. We enjoyed a Agua Fresca with our meal. Will definitely return. All the ingredients looked freshly made and not like they had been sitting out there all day! I recommend to anyone looking for a filling salad with great customer service! I look forward to coming back! :) read more

Literally the best salad bowl place i've ever been to. They have so many toppings it's crazy ! it's so delicious and filling. A bowl comes filled to the top of whatever u want. I ate a whole bowl that's how much i loved it. Their dressing is super good. Maybe not the healthiest thing but definitely better than eating a burger. Also it's reasonably priced, and a bowl is around $10. They also have different types of natural juices like pineapple and green juice. Definitely will be coming back! i seriously crave it. read more

Fresco - Salad Near Me - San Marcos, Texas

Let me be frank and excuse my candor: FRESCO is a restaurant trying to be a restaurant. A wannabe. Food is 3-4/10; ambience is 2-3 /10; service is not applicable: and overall fun factor is LOW. It seems like a middle school project that never made the grade. Price is higher end. With so many better restaurants in the vicinity, only choose FRESCO if you are in the mood for self Flagellation. read more

Place was clean, employees were nice & food was delicious. They had a good selection of toppings.

This is literally my new favorite restaurant. Kale, Brussels sprouts, rainbow carrots, mushrooms' onions, poblano, grilled corn, tomatoes, seeds, cheese and a green goddess and roasted red pepper vinaigrette. So delicious. Love at first bite! read more

Fresco - My custom bowl. This is my new favorite restaurant it was so delicious - Salad Near Me - San Marcos, Texas

After a recommendation from a local friend, I decided to stop here one day after going to Pure Barre next-door. I was pleasantly surprised! I love this style of food, and I love the amount of variety they have. This is definitely a healthy food bowl & it is quick and easy but full of flavor! They give you a selection of lettuce or vegetables to have as a base, and you just build your bowl on top of that. They have tofu as an option, and it taste great! The variety of toppings almost feels endless In addition to the sauces and freebies at the end. The location had easy parking and ordering was easy. The staff members gave me plenty of recommendations which I always enjoy. I will definitely be back! read more

If you're looking for a place that has comforting, delicious food, Fresco is the way to go! I think this is the perfect place for college students and should be put into cafeterias/hospitals as a great healthy option, instead of Chipotle. The chicken was so flavorful, not greasy at all, and the dressings were so tangy and delicious. The employees were very nice and even helped my friend and I choose the right things to put in our bowls to compliment everything well. After we had sat down for a bit, the manager came up to us and was very sweet! He mentioned how he and his (best friend?) opened in January and would love to open more in college towns. I think it was very thoughtful of him to stop and ask what we thought, wanting our opinion as college students. If you're looking for a great place to just relax with friends, eat, and vibe, this is the perfect place to go! I cannot recommend it enough and will definitely be back! read more

Omg y'all! San Marcos really lucked out with a place like this. Love ordering bowls from here at least once a week. I typically get a bowl with baby spinach, chicken, white rice, seeds, shredded cheese, corn, and tortilla chips. I highly recommend adding the Mexican goddess sauce to your bowl. If you like avocados then you'll like this sauce! You can design your own bowl with so many options to choose from. The staff is always so nice and welcoming! They always welcome you in when you walk and remind you to have a good day while walking out. The staff does a great job with enforcing COVID-19 rules and regulations. Imagine chipotle, but better and your supporting local while dining in! read more

Y'all. YAAAAAAALL. This is my new favorite place in town. Every single thing in the bowl I ordered was fresh and delicious. It's hard to find things that don't skyrocket my Weight Watchers points up, and this place is full of options that are 0 points (and full of flavor). Portions are massive and you definitely get a bang for your buck. read more

Fresco - Custom bowl! - Salad Near Me - San Marcos, Texas

The food is amazing! The staff is amazing and this will be my new spot. I was skeptical but gave it a try and I'm happy I did. Food is fresh, flavorful and healthy. I like that you get a good amount for your money and it's very filling. I enjoyed the egg option and that the corn was corn alone without the extra stuff mixed in like other bowl places. Sauce options are a plus! Give it a try, you'll like it too! read more

This is my favorite restaurant in Texas. Everytime I go to San Marcos I always plan a frescos visit. The staff are all very nice and knowledgeable of the menu. The food tastes amazing. And the environment is really cool. I have celiac disease and a dairy allergy and frescos has never once made me sick. I recommend this place to anyone looking for a healthy restaurant with accommodations for everyone. read more

This is THE SPOT for a healthy lunch! I drive all the way from Buda for this. From the looks of the menu you might think it would be like chipotle but it's absolutely not. It's a million times better than that! The green goddess dressing is to die for. If only someone would pass me that recipe, I'd be in heaven ;) PLEASE build another Fresco closer to Buda! Y'all would make a killing out here! read more

My friend and I tried this place after our workout down the street. If you're looking for something fresh and healthy, this is the place to go! You start by picking your base of greens, and then go on to pick out your proteins, toppings, and dressings. I got a bowl with spinach and arugula, brown rice, chicken, sweet potatoes, tomatoes, corn, garbanzo beans, cucumbers, and green goddess dressing! They have many options beyond this but it was simply delicious and I will definitely be returning. We had seen signs for this place around town and decided to give it a try and we were blown away! After we finished eating the owner came up to check in on us and we learned that this is a local business, the first one to ever exist! I will suggest this place to all my friends and highly recommend anyone to give it a try! Support local businesses! read more

Fresco - Hippie bowl - Salad Near Me - San Marcos, Texas

I love this place! The bowls are amazing and the staff might be the nicest in all of San Marcos. However, 2 out of the 3 times I've been here, the tip selection screen froze up, not allowing me to tip. It seems the staff had been instructed to just bypass the tip selection screen if it froze. Not allowing us to tip the very nice and helpful staff is unacceptable, so I hope they fix this soon, as I will not be returning until they do. Get your shit together, management! Edit: I've been informed the issue is being dealt with, so I will change my review to reflect the quality of the food and service. read more

I would eat here everyday if I could. Great food, wonderful service, reasonable price. Can't ask for more.

I come here almost everyday and the food is always fresh and amazing! You're always greeted with a smile everything about this place keeps me coming back I love it! read more

Super good healthy vegetarian/ vegan option for San Marcos. The food is super fresh and light but filling. Way better than chipotle, they have a lot more flavors and nutritional options going on. The drinks are really natural tasting. It's clean inside. The staff was friendly and very helpful. The food was very good. for vegetarians or vegans I recommend the chipotle citrus tofu, and all the leafy greens. try the chipotle goddess dressing too. read more

Fresco - built my own tofu bowl (CHIPOTLE CITRUS TOFU) so good and filling. Vegan Bowl - Salad Near Me - San Marcos, Texas

First time trying Frescos here in San Marcos and I am blown away. Not only is the food vegan friendly and seasoned to perfection, but the staff is super patient, knowledgeable and helpful to new customers unsure of what they want! If you're looking for good quality food - great bang for your buck and a relaxing/clean environment I would HIGHLY suggest giving them a try! I built my own bowl - the tofu and corn are the highlights for me. LARGE PORTION SIZES TOO! read more

Fantastic! I'm so glad we tried it! super healthy, light, fresh ingredients. Very filling without being too heavy. My husband got the Bobcat bowl and I made my own with similar ingredients. The combo base of brown rice, black beans, and spinach was a perfect base for toppings of tofu and pulled pork with charred corn. The avocado dressing was a perfect compliment. Also, the tofu is probably the best I've ever had! Wonderful sweet chipotle glaze. It was also put together fast. We will definitely be back. read more

If you're vegan/vegetarian I definitely recommend trying their tofu! The Mexican green goddess dressing was so good I wish I got extra. Me and my friend give it 8/10 and will definitely be coming back! Only downside is the price, I wish it was more like Salata and they didn't limit your options to only 5 add-ons. read more

Fresco - Build your own with Mexican green goddess dressing - Salad Near Me - San Marcos, Texas

One of my favorite places to eat when I'm in town. I live 3 hrs away but can't wait to get back. Last time we stayed for the weekend my wife and I ate there 4 times. read more

I have eaten here multiple times and always love an excuse to drive to San Marcos to visit again! The food is fresh and super flavorful! The portions are great for the price and I appreciate the competent and friendly staff. The restaurant has been clean each time I've gone. Definitely one of my favorites spots! read more

Clean space and delicious food. Super nice service! Will definitely come back. Great quantity real filling.

AMAZING! When someone suggested we go to a new bowl place, I was very skeptical. Fresco is sooooooo good. The ingredients are very fresh and the flavors are amazing. I'm honestly sad there aren't more in San Antonio or Austin. I bring everyone who visits me in San Marcos to Fresco for at least one meal. Probably my favorite place to eat in San Marcos! read more

San Marcos has a second vegetarian place. Nice. I discovered this place when a customer cancelled a food order. That's right, I got a free dinner. My paid experience wasn't bad either. I got the fajita bowl thinking I was getting one of their few bowls with meat. Nope. It did not disappoint as I did not miss the beef. I had little time to decide, though, as they kept the line moving. read more

Fresco has quickly become my go-to restaurant in San Marcos. The food is fresh and delicious. I love to build my own bowl and my 5 year old has even started to build her own as well (they have a small bowl option for kids!). The owners are super friendly as well! I recommend Fresco to all my friends and family. read more

Fresco's is a better version of Chipotle. More selections to choose from, however the prices are on the higher end. Portions are a good size so it's more justifiable than chipotle. They range from keto diet, pescatarian, to straight protein diets really anything that caters to your liking. Environment is clean, in a great location, and always pretty quick in service. read more

Really good spot and fresh! We met joe the owner and could tell that this is an up and coming local business that's about to get big!

Think of this place as a healthier version of chipotle with better quality ingredients. My wife and I have been weightlifting for the past year and trying to eat healthy. It's almost impossible to find places with menu options catered toward people like us that serve food with the right macros. Fresco is perfect for what we need. My favorite is the double protein bowl (aka "Swoll Bowl"). It's my go-to lunch when I haven't meal prepped. It's a little pricey, but you get what you pay for! The manager is very personable and remembers all of the customers. The rest of the staff is also very fast and friendly. I cannot recommend Fresco enough, especially to fitness minded people! Go try it and you won't be disappointed! read more
