One of my new favorite spots! Not only is the food great... the drinks are amazing (and strong)!!

This place is great for a family afternoon! They have amazing playground for kiddos and my 6 year old truly enjoyed it. They have ample seating indoors as well as outdoors. Food is meh, drinks were pretty good. They are significantly understaffed so prepare to wait for awhile for any item your order or even for anyone to get your order. But the staff that they have is very very nice and hardworking and they go above and beyond for everyone to have a great time. If you have little ones who want to run around while you are enjoying a drink or two, it's the perfect spot. read more

Chicken fajitas plain and bland. No fajita spice on what looked like boiled chicken. Tasteless. Horrible. Cheese enchiladas excellent. Not too impressed with quality of food. Tortillas were ok. Service was ok. Restaurant very clean. Not the best place for Mexican fajitas. read more

Fantastic cheese enchiladas, I dream of them often. Sit on the deck and let your kids play on the playground while you eat!

Me and my family were going to this place to eat for my sister's birthday, we ordered chorizo and egg and it took 20-25 minutes, once our food had gotten here, it was cold. they were nice enough to take it off the check but it took along time for my brother-in-law's Nacho's to get here and also they reccomened to microwave I can not believe they said they will microwave it. 2 stars took very long for our food and by the time it got here it was cold and we were the only table that had cold food read more

Yes we ate at lunch at 11:30 -1 and because of the shade tree and fans, I did not feel hot, and we went on May 10.

The San Marcos location is amazing, New Braunfels is terrible. Service tonight was horrible. Waitress never seen. Asked for chips twice snd each time the waitress said OK...never to be seen again. Good mediocre. Drive to San Marcos, it's worth it. read more

Love this place! Tamales were great. They make a good margarita too. Their patio is really cool, literally. read more

Herbert's - Pork tamales - Mexican Near Me - New Braunfels, Texas

I have visited this restaurant weekly all through the pandemic and tonight ended a good relationship. We waited for over a hour and a half and still did not get a table. We were a party of 8 so we understood waiting but we were repeatedly put back further in line. When we finally addressed the issue we were treated very poorly. We will not visit this establishment again. The manager treated us very poorly and they demonstrated very poor customer service. read more

Try their NEW Steak street taco! 3 on the plate, good .. Chalupa Plate, GOOD ... Large Strawberry Margarita. It is so hot out side just what I needed ... EXCELLENT SERVICE - Hostess & Waiter very nice & happy people - Thank you!! read more

Loved our date night to Herbert's while in town to float the River. Becca was our server and she was AMAZING!! We have never ever gotten our food faster or had such amazing service at a restaurant before! Had the best time chatting with her and loved our food and drinks. Can't recommend more. Ask for Becca!! read more

We have been dining at Herbert's since we moved to their area. Food has always been great. The last 2 trips in the service has been horrendous. Today, we were sat at a booth in the corner. Were there for 10 minutes and not waited on. I went and asked for a server to wait on us. No one came but they sat another booth and the people were waited on immediately. My wife and I got up and left after speaking the the blonde haired women at the front. I will go to Sam Marco's location from now on. read more

The food was exceptional, ambiance wonderful - is definitely a local favorite. Jaime provided excellent service with a winning personality. Will be back here!! read more

Had brunch this morning! Great outdoor eating and patio. Food was good, but daughter/wife thought beans and rice could have more flavor. Queso was outstanding- as always! Chips and salsa were also fantastic. We will be back! read more

Our family came for Sunday lunch. While grateful for the outdoor kids play area, we were all very disappointed in the service we received. Although the staff was nice, the service was horrible, and the food was not good. We never saw our waitress after she took our order, our glasses mostly were empty, left without silverware and had to get our own menus after asking for them several times to different staff members, as well as waiting far to long for our check that we had to send back for correction. Upon signing for the bill we realized they added a gratuity to our check (which would be more then fine, but was more then deserved for the being forgotten and lack of service. read more

We eat at Herbert's occasionally on Sundays. It is usually pretty busy. The food is consistently good, and they have a nice kid menu. I like the outdoor eating area and the playground for the kids. I have not had any problems with the service or the servers. Wait time had always been reasonable and the staff has been nice. The only issue I had recently is that they had misters turned on in the outside area (which I understand) that were blowing enough water to keep my glasses wet to the point that I couldn't see. I asked to change tables to one that had an umbrella and was accommodated easily so it was not a problem really. However, the servers were even holding their empty trays above their heads when they walked outside to avoid the spray. It seemed like an unusual amount of water spraying the patio. I think they need to either turn it down or put umbrellas on all the tables. read more

As much as I wanted to love this place, I must say, it's my last resort when craving Texmex/Mexican food. I judge place right off the bat by the taste of their chips and salsa-- both of which were mediocre at best. The margaritas were whatever and my enchiladas were just okay. Maybe it's just me-- regardless, there are far better options nearby. read more

Herberts never disappoints.... great queson loco, cheese enchiladas are awesome. Highlight was the ribeye ranchero dinner. Steak was perfect and loaded with flavor. Hot sauce never disappoints and the beer and margaritas are on point. read more

Herbert's - House frozen margarita - Mexican Near Me - New Braunfels, Texas

Great place for a family with kids who want to burn their energy. This place boasts a big playground and kids always enjoy their time there. The food is decent, drinks are great, but very understaffed. The wait time on orders can vary and certainly plan to spend a few hours here. read more

I am an out of towner, and I often come to NB to visit friends who live here. Of all of the places I've been to in this town, this place had the worst service I've experienced, maybe ever. It would take paragraphs to explain everything that happened, so I'll just share that I asked for a Bloody Mary 4 times, from 2 different people, and it took about 35 minutes to get it. It's sad because the food isn't bad, but a large table of customers were lost that day. read more

Wow, what a shithole. I have not written a Yelp review in a long time, but this place is so disgusting that I almost have to. The waiter Jay (his nametag said something else) was awful, and lied by saying that the portions are large. They were most certainly not and would likely not even be sufficient for a small child. Service was needless to say awful, as our drinks were rarely refilled. There was chips and salsa but, of course, it is extremely spicy and inedible. I can't believe so many people actually left good reviews. Your IQ would have to be far below room temperature to think this place was even close to good. I have a picture of the kids "nachos" below. Herbert, I hope you read this you disgusting piece of shit. Just don't eat here. read more

Stopped in because the parking lot is always packed, was disappointed with the enchiladas in a enchilada sauce not gravy as described. Great beer prices, restaurant was over all clean, staff friendly and prompt service read more

Don't try and order anything to go. It will not be correct. It is so frustrating to get home and realize that all that you paid your hard earned money for is not there. Ugh!! It's not that difficult. read more

We had a family gathering here during lunch. The food was delicious, the waitstaff were very attentive, and the manager was helpful! Nice play area for the kids! read more

Becca was the greatest server I have ever had! Super attentive with a great sense of humor. 41 years in the service industry and you can tell! Definitely ask for her when you come here! All left with a big smile on our face! read more

This review is for one thing: an egg and breakfast sausage taco that was brought home to me by my sister, who loves this place. This is not a Seguin quality taqueria taco, it is closer to Mcdonald's 99 cent breakfast burrito. Eats: -egg and breakfast sausage taco; eggs yellow not diluted with egg wash, melted American cheese, not cheddar, store bought quality tortillas, and spicy Pace picante quality salsa, not Mexican taqueria pureed. read more

See Ben W's review... What he said! What Cameron B also referred to... This is ~NOT~ San Marcos! I wanted to give them a chance as i have been several times now but as I also see from other reviews they have a huge challenge in front of them. The potential is there although this location is bad luck. It has had more restaurants there in the past 40 years than I can count. It is a shame. I love San Marcos Herbert's so much since my college days over 30yrs ago, it is sad they can't get this one right. I do realize it is a different family member running this one. And it's a different kitchen. But please try... 3/18/14. I think we waited more than 30 min for our food with hardly anyone inside the place. A few tables outside for live music. I can only imagine what it would be like on a busy weekend. i heard the manager talking to some that music will be regular thing. They need to concentrate on their service before bringing in more customers to piss off. Our server said another server called out sick that night but that is no excuse for the kitchen being slow. It's Mexican food. It does not take that long to cook. It was after 8pm so not that many people in there on Tues night. Our water was almost empty and he asks if we wanted them refilled. Really? Then takes our glass away to refill. Um, get a pitcher and refill every table that needs water. "Wait On" and ""Serve" your tables! Dinner was barely eatable. My companion didn't even want to finish his plate. There are so many choices in town, we will have to save our Herbert's craving for San Marcos. So sad. I gave an extra star for the Manske Roll (also a San Marcos fav) option for dessert. read more

I would give this a 0/10 but I cannot. Food was bad, also really cold. And food came after a hour. But the service was good I don't know the name of the waiter that served us but she was very nice and she was very friendly and helpful read more

2 fajita enchilada plates.. 4 bean and cheese tacos.. plastic ramekin of queso.. 2 HOUSE margs. $73 And a fee for not using cash? This a gas station? Food was sub par and room temperature. I will wait the 30 min wait at Casa G's next time. read more

We moved to New Braunfels a few months ago and were out and about, when we saw this Herbert's and had to try it. Since we really loved the Herbert's Taco Hut in San Marcos. This definitely wasn't as good as the San Marcos location, but it was good. Service was excellent and the people were super friendly. We will definitely give it another try, so we can try other menu items. I just wonder if they are the same recipes as the San Marcos location? Or do I just remember it better than it was? read more

Went with a group of friends. Two of their plates were messed up. When one sent it back, they still wanted to charge her for the plate since it is a popular dish. The lady even argued with her that she was the problem not the plate. Told her the manager was mad she didn't like her food. Never in my life have I seen someone argue with a customer on the food. For that reason alone I will never be back and I will suggest other restaurants over this one. It was uncalled for and they need to learn a little about customer service. read more

Great food with some unique flavors. Service has always been goo and they have great outside dining when the weather is right.

Its not award winning its hit or miss. A great place for the kids but you never know what the food will turn out to be. Most of the time its just average. Once it was above average but nothing worth getting excited about. The house margaritas suck but dont most do? The downside for me is that they use what I call "rat cheese" which is the sharp cheddar cheap cheese that is too sharp for my preference in cheese enchiladas and toppings. read more

I'm going to tell you that if you are in to eating enchilada sauce from a can and being charged for every single thing under the sun (example 1.28 for cilantro and another 1.00 for onions) then this is your place . The fact that they will not give you the lunch price at 5 minutes til 11am and tell you they have to charge the regular price which is 1.00 more. The fact that they got best enchiladas in new Braunfels is a lie someone paid for that win. My tamales were microwaved, you know when you leave something in the microwave for too long and it gets hard yeah that's how I know it was microwaved the plate I was told it was really hot , no it wasn't it was warm like " hey pop this in the microwave real quick" warm. Very disappointed since they have a great patio and playground for the kids , but will never be back! read more

Just a few days ago my fiancé and I ate at Herberts for the first time. My fiancé went to go pick it up. The food was amazing. His fajita meat was so tender. My floutas were perfect. I don't know how they make their chips but they are crisp and delicious. The only thing stopping me from giving it 5 stars is they forgot both our containers of sour cream. When I called to let them know the girl that answered the phone was so nice to me. I told her I wanted to tell the manager how we loved the food but our sour cream was left out. The manager wouldn't come to the phone. Said she was too busy. She kept telling the girl to tell me she put it in herself. Um no she didn't. So just check before you leave. The food is wonderful and worth every cent. read more

Today I ordered door dash. When I received my order I was missing 2 of the 4 tortillas I ordered and my sprite. At first, when I called about the sprite missing, they were kinda and helpful. When I realized I was miring the tortillas the manager filled on me making it sound like I was a liar and only ordered 2 tortillas and no sprite. I said let me look at my emailed receipt. And when I did I said the sprite and (2) of the 2 pack tortillas was on there she denied it and was extremely rude to me. I will not be eating here again, not only did I not get what I paid For, they were extremely rude to me about it. Below shows my emailed receipt. read more

not one to try and judge food establishments in today's working world but this has hands down been the worst experience I have ever had. was seated and waited 30 minutes to be acknowledged by anyone, finally decided to ask the seater if we could get service. he personally brought us chips and salsa. 20 minutes more and I walked inside and asked for a manager to ask if we could get help. he sent someone Pretty quick and they took our order finally. we waited another 25 minutes to get a portion of the tables order(3). when the food arrived it was cold. finally a different person brought the final meal and said she was taking over due to a shift change. the Manager had already used this excuse an hour earlier. hands down worst service we have ever had! read more

My wife and I finally made it to this place and was not disappointed at all. This is now our favorite in the area. We moved here 8 months ago and have finally found an all around great Mexican restaurant that we both agree that is the best we have had since moving here. The salsa is pretty darn good. The chips were the good thinner ones that we like. The enchilada gravy was actually pretty good cuz I normally just put queso on top of my enchilada but ventured out of that to give it a try and didn't get disappointed. The rice was good not dry and not over seasoned. Will definitely be back and will recommend this place. read more

An average mexican place. Nice decor and I appreciate the outdoor play area where kids can blow off steam. Service was excellent, drinks good, but to be honest just average food. I've had better mexican at several places. read more
