We came here on 04.06.24 for a quick lunch, driven here by Yelp reviews. The ambiance spoke of authenticity and what probably was going to be one hell of a meal. We were seated promptly and tended to with a lot of attention. We each had the cheese enchilada plate along with some grilled jalapeños. The enchiladas were delicious although the cheese was very Tex-Mex. I don't know even know if it was cheddar or American, but the flavor was good and the texture of the enchiladas was solid. The beans were excellent and reminded me of a good homemade meal. The rice wasn't bad although it was a bit tomatoey. But that is one way of making it - it just wasn't to my taste. Overall, though for a great meal at a very reasonable price, this is the spot. read more

Budget grocery eggs, cheese, packaged tortillas, and honestly the worst cheap chips and taco-bell-ish salsa I've ever experienced. Loud, dirty, and really not that affordable for what you get. Wouldn't really call this Mexican food or Tex-Mex. It felt like eating "Mexican" food in the Midwest. Why is this place rated so high, San Marcos?? read more

A San Marcos staple los Vega is the embodiment of the hole in the wall, Mexican food restaurant of your dreams the food exacts a feeling you'll want to relive everytime. This restaurant used to be in Kyle, the service has improved since moving to San Marcos. Though both venues were almost to small for the popularity of this restaurant. - Drak read more

Los Vega Mexican Restaurant - Old potatoes and old beans, probably from yesterday?!? I love this restaurant, but whoever decided this was acceptable. Needs to be let go. - Tex-Mex Near Me - San Marcos, Texas

The best Mexican food in San Marcos. Especially their breakfast. When we come back from Monterrey this is as close as we can get!

Just plain terrible! Don't know what else to say. Enchiladas were mushy, cheese whiz instead of real cheese. Fajitas were store bought frozen fajitas from Sam's. There are to many Mexican restaurants in San Marcos for these people to be so careless with their food. I will never go back to this place. Just plain nasty! read more

The food was really good. The coffee was exceptional. And, they allow dogs on the patio, a reason to return. I had the Miga's Mexicano, the plate was hot, and the food very fresh. The waitress was very friendly and accommodating. The only negative was that the small tables outside are so wobbly and my husband accidentally bumped the table and spilled coffee all over me. Regardless, I wouldn't take off any stars for that. The weather was nice so eating outside early was ok. I wonder if it's possible later in the heat of day, I didn't see any umbrellas. Five star food and service! read more

Great food..! Love everything about this place, everything tastes great and the prices are reasonable.!!

This place was amazing !! Cheap prices, big portions, and it was delicious ! The only downfall was that there was very limited seating , so you may end up at a table with others you don't know . But if you are feeling social, or just hungry for an amazing meal, I highly recommend this place ! read more

Los Vega Mexican Restaurant - Tex-Mex Near Me - San Marcos, Texas

Doesn't look like much from the outside, but don't panic. The food is incredible! Super authentic everything, service is friendly and prices are fair. Nice sized portions without going overboard. We went for breakfast and it was exactly what we were looking for. Our group ordered the Migas Verde, breakfast burrito, shrimp omelet and pork chops with eggs. Every dish was full of flavor and perfectly cooked. I also appreciated that they gave us chips and salsa to munch with our coffee while we ruminated the menu. read more

This place was extremely delicious and tasted very authentic! I got the migas verdes, my partner got the huevos rancheros and we split the French toast with some coffee and we cleaned our plates. the people are extremely welcoming and had great customer service. 20/10 read more

Breakfast tacos were just okay. Got one create-your-own (that used more cheese than was necessary) plus one special. The nopal + bean special had a yummy filling, but I didn't care for the tortilla on either taco because they felt a little powdery to the touch. Cheese tasted cheap, not freshly grated. Service was terrific, though, so I'll come back eventually to try something from the lunch/dinner menu. read more

Our realtor raved about this place months ago, so when my wife and I were thinking of a breakfast place after walking along the San Marcos Riverwalk trail (it was just an OK trail...short and not as scenic as we hoped or expected) early this morning, we decided to check it out. First impression wasn't too favorable. It looked like the building was about to fall apart and needed to be condemned. And the sign in front seemed to indicate you're in some crime-ridden area, for some reason. There's an unpaved parking area behind the restaurant but we decided to park along the street as there was ample parking there. We were greeted by Efren, our friendly and attentive server. After serving us coffee and water, he answered a couple of questions and we placed our order. My wife tried their Sausage ala Mexicana omelet and I tried the familiar Mexican breakfast Huevos Rancheros with over medium eggs instead of the traditional over easy eggs. Back in college in Southern California, my buddies and I would head out to the school cafeteria after military training / PT in the morning and devour their huevos rancheros. Service was quick and we were savoring our breakfast in no time. Our breakfast came with fresh tortillas of our choosing (flour or corn). We both liked our dishes and loved the bold flavors from everything we ate, even the tortillas...although my eggs were served over easy instead of over medium as I ordered. No big deal, as it tasted even better than I remember from college. Breakfast for 2 came out to just under $23 with tip. Good value and quite tasty and filling breakfast. read more

They will leave you satisfied and planning your next visit. Try anything on the menu, with fresh ingredients, and excellent service, you will be hooked on this star of a place. read more

Located in a small house it is crowded but not too bad. The service was good not great. The food was bland. The chips were stale and tough. The hot sauce was spicy. read more

Driving to San Antonio and looking for a breakfast spot. Decided to give them a try because of the Yelp rating. This is a great spot. Food was excellent, friendly staff, service was fast, overall a great experience. Loved the ambiance. read more

This is a favorite breakfast spot for Meetup group " San Marcos takes a hike" I had the pleasure of eating here after a 4 mile hike. Very pleasant atmosphere, efficient staff, coffee cup always filled. I had the pancakes w bacon. Pancakes were delicious , crisp exterior, fluffy inside, bacon smoky flavor. Can't wait to try the Migas next time. read more

So the first thing I want to say is the coffee is very good. Nothing fancy, just plain, black, very good coffee. I ordered the sausage plate. 2 eggs, sausage patties, beans and potatoes with flour tortillas. Everything was pretty good. My eggs were cooked right. The tortillas were obviously homemade. The service was good. They brought my food out really quickly. The only complaint I have is everything was barely warm. I like to put butter on my tortillas and they weren't even warm enough to soften the butter. I had to smash it out on the tortilla. Then I got the check. $13.80 something,almost $14. I got a coconut bar and were up to $16.39. I don't believe in not tipping so add a $3 tip and your talking $20 for cold food is no bueno. Plus the charged me a non-cash fee. I was gonna give them another shot BEFORE I got the check but now I definitely won't be back. read more

Drove from San Antonio to try this, Yelp says open til 9, pull up, closed. Hanging sign says close at 3. Won't make another trip.

We went for breakfast and It was wonderful, the Menudo was on the spot great flavor and consistency, we ask order tacos de barbacoa and the were delicious, the salsas are ok. The service was quick and always checking on us if we needed more coffee or water. I will recommend this Mexican spot any day of the week read more

Spectacular breakfast tacos. The corn tortillas are the best I've ever had -- soft, warm, perfectly chewy and they don't fall apart! All too often you pick up takeout breakfast tacos and they're cold and dry as a bone (I love you Torchys and Tacodeli, but I'm looking at you.) This place puts them to shame. I haven't tried anything else here so I'll just say that if you want breakfast tacos, skip Herberts and the chains. Los Vega is where it's at. read more

We went for breakfast and wasn't even sure they were open. Very nice gentleman met us at the doorway and seated us promptly. We didn't wait long for drinks or food . I had the huevos rancheros and it was delicious. My husband had the breakfast tacos with bacon/egg/cheese and sausage/egg/cheese and said they were great. Y'all this pancake we had tasted like cake batter- it was delicious. read more

I love your food so much BUT BUT BUT BUT I wish y'all would bring back the black beans! Also, the tenderness of the beef fajita really comes and goes. Rosia and Efram are awesome! read more

Hands down, the best salsa on the planet. An impeccable mix of flavors - with perfect texture and flawless consistency (not too chunky, not too fine, not too heavy, not too lite, not too watery - Goldilocks' culinary manifestation of "Just Right"). The heat takes you right to the edge of being "too spicy" but then takes a half a step back away from that deep dark abyss of eye watering unpleasantness - and leaves you reaching for another chip and scoop of salsa rather than a deep gulp from the tall glass of ice water. Decades from now, I will dream of this salsa on my deathbed. Nothing else compares. read more

Wow! Big Bomb-Ass Tacos have a way of redeeming this place's Good Name!! Based on my last review it must have been just one of those off days that everyone seems to have from time to time. I went here this morning and had two of the best tacos that I've ever had in San Marcos! If you're tired of the same ol potato egg and cheese or bean & cheese tacos....then try either of these: Al Pastor Taco - Flavorful, lean cuts of pork tips that are marinated in onion, garlic, and some secret recipe of Deliciousness! This behemoth of a taco was Loaded to the rim...practically almost a Two-hander in my book! Barbacoa Taco - Greasy..yes! Delicious..yes! Awesome. Amazing. Best Taco for a Hangover...Yes! Yes! Yes!! Cover this bad boy with chopped onions, cilantro, & hot sauce and BOOM!! You got yourself one bad mama-jama of a taco! So Please PLEASE Disregard my last review. Found my new Taco Hot Spot in town! Los Vega is where its at!! read more

My college taco place every Sunday morning! Get the chorizo potato and egg taco. So good.

This is gonna be my go-to for breakfast. There's not too many places in San Marcos that are considered local and it's usually just chains so now that I've found another place I really like (especially for breakfast), I was superrr happy! It's a very small place and pretty packed for Sunday brunch time but I only had to wait roughly 10 minutes for a table for 2. I ordered the chilaquiles (w/tomatillo sauce instead of red) with a side of 2 scrambled eggs and my friend ordered the french toast with eggs. He liked his dish a lot and mine was so delicious. Originally, when I saw pictures of the entrees the beans did not look too appetizing but it tasted pretty good and what made it better was everything was extra hot (temperature wise). They're pretty generous with the potatoes and the chilaquiles was pretty good. They serve it with a side of avocado which made it even better. I couldn't even finish my entree because I was too full. The chips and salsa are okay, I'm not too big of a fan of their chips. Out of both of the salsas, I like the green one more and it got a kick to it. I would definitely be coming back to try their breakfast tacos that everyone mentions. If you're in a rush, you should definitely call in your order as they seem pretty busy with pick up orders! read more

Good Mexican food. A good variety. I had an Al pastor taco and guisada taco, both were delicious. Highly recommend.

The tacos are very good and a good price but small. The smell of moth balls was sort of a turn off. 3% charge if you use a card. I would get them there again. I was buying for a big group and got 22 tacos for $45. read more

Should have known not to eat here when, on a Saturday morning there are no cars in the parking lot but, it was close by so we went in. Chips are salsa were good. No complaints there, but when they brought our food to us in PAPER PLATES , it spoke volumes!!!! The food had NO FLAVOR ! I had to soak it in salsa to find a flavor. I gave up, stopped eating and took it home to flavor it up myself. I asked the server for a refill on my tea and she brought me a lid for my glass but no refill! . I give up!! It's a for this place!!! read more

The best breakfast tacos I have ever had! I have been here countless times and they are always delicious!
