I genuinely wanted to like Nurys on Main. I really did. Hope springs eternal, especially in Fredericksburg, where good food is usually a sure bet. Unfortunately, this experience felt less like a restaurant opening and more like a dress rehearsal no one stopped. First problem: location confusion. We went to what turned out to be their second spot--which, crucially, was not called Nurys on the sign. Same ownership, new space, old identity crisis. Walking in felt like entering a building that hadn't yet decided what it wanted to be when it grew up. The lingering aroma? A strange duet of fish, antiseptic, and industrial cleaning agents. Not hunger-inducing. More "urgent care with a fryer." There was no one there, which made sense--it was between brunch and lunch--but somehow the wait for food felt disproportionately long for what arrived. What arrived, sadly, was mediocrity wearing a Tex-Mex costume. They seemed to be aiming for Tex-Mex but landed somewhere closer to Tex-Flex--stretching flavors thin until they snapped. The barbacoa was fatty in a way that suggested less "slow-cooked tradition" and more "glistening regret." It didn't taste authentic, or even especially intentional. Just heavy. The guacamole--perhaps the most unforgivable offense--was bad. Guacamole is avocados, salt, lime, and love. That's it. This had none of the above. The waitstaff wasn't rude, exactly--just possessed by the clear energy of people who would prefer you to finish quickly so they could resume their real lives. Hospitality should feel like an invitation, not a countdown. Now, maybe the original Nurys is wonderful. I hope it is. But if that's the case, why open a second location only to phone it in? Expansion should mean excellence multiplied, not care divided. There are too many good places in Fredericksburg doing things right to settle for something half-hearted. This one wasn't terrible--it was worse. It was forgettable. And that's the real disappointment. read more

I didn't care for it. We were a large party and sat immediately, which was nice, and the restaurant was calm and nearly empty for a Sunday but honestly, there's a reason it was so dead. Right away, the service felt off. Our waitress didn't even ask if we wanted drinks before jumping straight to, "Are you ready to order food?" Then she disappeared for long periods, even though we were basically her only table besides one other couple. The food was extremely underwhelming -- basic, barely warm, and nothing memorable. On top of that, there were so many flies inside that we were nonstop swatting them away. And to make matters worse, there was a bug in my drink when it was served to me. That was pretty much the final straw. Overall, a very forgettable and disappointing experience. We probably won't come again, and I would not recommend it. read more

What a cute and quaint place on the Main. Very reasonable prices and fresh food! If you want a good variety and right on the Main stop, come check out Nury's!! Chow Chow Time!! read more

This is a nice little place, nothing fancy, on the main drag of Fredericksburg. The menu offers a good variety and the food we had was good. The place is clean and comfortable. Fried shrimp done right for me. My wife had the chicken salad, too much onion for her taste, but otherwise good. Adjacent table ordered their regular Shrimp Dynamite. So that must be a hit. Friendly staff that was attentive enough but a little slow given the late hour and low table count. A perfectly fine dining experience that left me feeling well fed yet not knocked out by anything. read more

Modern cuisine with old town charm. Set in a creaky wood floor mercantile store from yesterday year is a comfortable dining space with antique lighting. We ordered the dynamite shrimp (not spicy, but lightly breaded) and fish tacos - finger licking good. Wife had a pork-hominy pazoli soup with Asada nachos. Get it. Both are full of flavor. I Recommend. We ate our share and took a box of leftovers. Kyle was attentive and made sure our glasses were always full on 99 degree TX-August evening. read more

Hopefully a one off but we were so excited to introduce Plus 1s Plus 1 to Nury's and their Pozole. Sad to say we 3 were provided with steaming bowls of fatty grizzle meat.

Great food and atmosphere! I thoroughly enjoyed my nachos. I could only eat half of them! They were very flavorful and full of ingredients. My husband had the fish and chips.

Nury's on Main, where I wanted to have a memorable dining experience--just not this kind of memory. Let me start with the good stuff (it's a short list, don't blink): the wine was excellent. Truly, chef's kiss. And the service? Friendly and attentive. But alas, that's where the magic ended and the mess began. I made the choice to try the seafood tower, and boy, do I regret it. The shrimp? Imagine chewing on a well-worn eraser, but with less flavor. The crab? Well, I didn't know it was possible for something to taste like so flavorless, but here we are. Now, I will give credit where it's due--the cucumbers and pico de gallo were good. And those house-made chips? Cold, stale, and harder than a bad breakup. Honestly, they'd be better served as coasters. For me, this place is a "I'll go for a glass of wine," but you can get a glass of wine anywhere in Fberg. For $40, I left frustrated and hungry. read more

Took a trip to Austin to visit my daughter. We went to visit a winery in a little town Fredericksburg, not too far away. There were a lot of cute little shops and places to eat. Lots of families and people walking around with their pets. Very pet friendly community. We stopped in here to grab a bite to eat. We had some very good chips and salsa. I had some shrimp tacos and as you can see they were loaded with toppings. Very tasty. The service was good and we got our food pretty fast. You will probably end up parking away from the main street and then strolling through the shops and restaurants. read more

We had an exceptionally good lunch mid week. Service was great, restaurant has a nice relaxed feel to it. Excellent service. The Asada empanadas were served fresh out of the fryer and the corn-flavored batter paired really well with the beef, cheese, and sauce. My wife thought her shrimp ceviche was a Top-3 ceviche, and maybe the best she's ever had surprisingly. Their breakfast items sounded really good. We may try to pay them a visit next time in town. read more

Highly recommended! We were just grabbing a bite on the way through town and everywhere looked packed but Nury's had a couple empty tables (there are also back rooms so it's actually a lot bigger than it looks)! I can't really tell you much about Nury's except that the owner and staff are all super nice and friendly and the fish tacos are some of the best I've ever had! They're always kinda messy and hard to eat but these were super fresh and light with great sauces! If you're passing through Fredericksburg don't miss this place! read more

Service and atmosphere were excellent. Food taste and presentation were excellent. The salad with shrimp was a little challenging, as it is a very full plate, cutting the shrimp and larger pieces was difficult with no room to spare on the plate. The spicy burger was very good, and would probably rival some of the best burgers available on Main Street in Fredricksburg. This restaurant has different menus at different times of day. Seafood, Hill Country comfort food, and Mexican cuisine. read more

Dropped here after a day in Fredericksburg. The service was efficient and quick. Cute restaurant, with a lot of beautiful decor. Unfortunately the food was a bit underwhelming and kind of over priced. I got fish tacos that were overloaded with toppings which made it pretty difficult to eat. The fish itself didn't have much flavor. The tacos also don't come with any sides. We also tried the chips and salsa and they do have some flavorful salsa. read more

Went in for a late lunch, not busy. Greeted when I walked in and sat immediately. The service here has been consistently good whether they are busy or not. Miranda checked on me just enough times and always made sure I had water in my glass. I ordered the Strawberry Spring Salad that comes with grilled chicken. It was delicious. I also got a chicken salad sandwich to go for my coworker. I have had that before and it's pretty good! Everything is a bit expensive for my taste, but at least the portions are very solid sizes so I'm not hungry at all afterwards. I like this spot for lunch, it's casual and they play good country music. What will bring me back every time is the positive service. read more

"Fish and chips," I said, somewhat confused. The young man who had come to our table after another server had given us glasses of water had oly asked if she taken our drink orders. Both my wife and I were fine with water and he stood there expectantly, as if waiting for us to invite him to sit down. Finally it dawned on me that he was here to take our orders. My wife, who had selected Nury's for our evening's repast, looked up at the waiter. "Ceviche," she said firmly. He nodded and headed back to the kitchen. I glanced around the dining room. "I'm not sure this restaurant knows what it wants to be," I declared. Rows of German beersteins, kettles, and cookware lined one wall, competing with corn molcajete grinding stones and other Mexican decor on the other. There was a distinct sea flavor to the place as well, as if the restaurant was trying to channel Red Lobster, but via Cancun. So someone needs to explain how the hell a British staple like Fish and Chips ended up on the menu. It was late Sunday evening and there were few guests. The waiter brought out our entrees. "Here is your Fish & Chips sir, and your fish tacos, ma'am." I glanced down at three huge filets of batter fried fish, French fries, coleslaw, and tartar sauce. The waiter walked away. "I ordered Ceviche," said my wife quietly. I blinked. Her plate was covered with three huge, fully loaded (overloaded to be honest ) fish tacos. I immediately bowed up, intent on demanding correction, but my wife, who hates conflict, pulled me back down. "I'm hungry. These are fine," she told me. She had literally had fish tacos the night before so I looked at her suspiciously. "They are? Are you sure?" She nodded, more to appease me than, than herself. I gave in and with reservation, sampled my fish. Como dice. OMG. Succulent. Creamy. Buttery. Soft. Melt in your mouth goodness. My eyes widened in shock. What the bloody hell! No fish and chips EVER tasted this good. Never! "This fish is INCREDIBLE!" I said in shock to my wife as she struggled to pick up a taco with a tortilla about three times smaller than the accompanying fillings. She gave up as it disintegrated in her hand and she resorted to a fork. "Uh huh," she muttered in response. "Good." Sensing disaster, I looked over at her. "How is yours?" "Messy," she replied sullenly. "It tastes good, but the composition could be better constructed." She picked at taco two with her fork. "Your fish is good?" "Good? Its incredible! I've never had anything like this, ever! This is the best fried fish I've ever had. Its amazing!" She smiled. Canon. And it wasn't just the fish. The fries were crisp and salty. The coleslaw not overly sweet. and the tartar sauce perfect. Blimey! We ate our dinner and when the waiter returned, I asked what kind of fish I'd just eaten. He replied, "Basa swai." I'd never heard of it, but a little research told me that it is a catfish from Asia, known for its fatty richness and low omega-3. Hmmm, no wonder it tasted so good. Its not a common fish sold in the US due to being frequently farmed in poor conditions with high levels of bacteria, mercury and other contaminants. Wow, isn't Google helpful? Still, it tasted amazing, was perfectly cooked, and now, three hours later, I feel fine. My wife and I left and headed back for the hotel, reminiscing about basa swai, fish and chips and... "I wanted Ceviche," my wife complained, regretting her decision not to bring it to the restaurant's notice, clearly following her like a storm follows a fisherman home. Mexican Cantina? British Pub? Seaside grill? Who knows? I don't. But go anyway. Decide for yourself. Just make sure if you want the Ceviche, that you GET the Ceviche. I'm the Gourmet Goob. read more

I'm sorry, but I forgot to review this place, so some time has lapsed, and all of the details are a little hazy, but...... I do remember the service was outstanding; quick, attentive, and accurate. I honestly don't remember what we ate, but I remember us commenting that it was good. Fried catfish, I think. Sorry, that's all I remember.

Grabbed a quick lunch on a Wednesday before heading out to tour the Fredericksburg Pioneer Museum. The chicken enchiladas verde were covered in melted cheese & delicious tomatillo sauce and served with rice and beans. The seafood ceviche bowl came with fried tortilla chips and was a huge portion. Our server was super friendly and efficient. Our sangrias were just the right size for lunch but we missed the fruit in them. read more

What a little gem Nury's is. We came to Nury's on Main for lunch after visiting the elephant preserve. The interior is quite quaint and cozy with a bit of a hodgepodge of things as far as decor is concerned. Service is quick and the food came out much faster than we anticipated. For the price, the servings are generous. The crab nachos were my favorite thing we ordered. There was a good amount of crab -- looked to be blue crab meat. Will definitely return when back in Fredericksburg. read more

The Black and Blue burger was delicious and the fries served with it also good. Burger came out hot and juicy. The Fish and Chips were huge filets but the tempura batter lacked seasonings which made it kind of bland. Came with fries that were also hot and tasty. Service was good but it was strange they gave us water when we were seated and didn't ask if we wanted anything else to drink, which was ok with us, but not what we are used to. We could have asked if we really wanted anything else because our waiter was attentive but not overbearing. read more

The food is simple and delicious. Service is wonderful and ambiance relaxing but cheerful.

A bit of a hit and miss here. We started with the Queso Fundido it failed compared to all of our past experiences with this dish. It lacked enough chorizo. We mentioned it to our waiter he apologized but failed to offer to correct it. This was a $17 blob of melted cheese with what was maybe 1 ounce of chorizo. The churros were some of the best we have had. Our other dishes were just okay. If I were ever back in the area I would skip this place. read more

In town again so we had to stop by for our second time. My wife had the fish tacos again and they were as good as last time! I felt like trying something different, so I went with the Nury's Spicy Burger. The burger was good. Came with a side of fries. However, I was expecting it to be a little spicier. The Habanero bacon jam was good though. All in all was worth the trip out there. Ww will be back again! read more

So we found this place after our wine tasting that day and I will say that this is a nice place. Everyone here were very welcoming and attentive. The service was great. I think everyone at our table liked what they ordered. I didn't hear any complaints. I ordered the fish and chips and it wasn't what I was used to when it comes to fish and chips. I personally like beer batter for my fish and chips and I like fish to be cod for the most part, or some other meaty fish like cod. This fish didn't have the texture of beer batter and the fish was super thin, which looked like catfish without the catfish taste. So basically I really didn't like my fish. Overall, this is a decent place with great service. If I ever come back to Fredericksburg and eat here, I will try something else. read more

Great menu, great food and they appreciated the business. We were lucky enough to run into one of the owners outside who offered a money back guarantee if we didn't like the food. We had already gotten a recommendation for the place, and neither one of them disappointed as the food and service were wonderful. We had the fish tacos and the fish and chips. Both were outstanding. I would have posted a picture if we hadn't dug in so quickly. You won't go wrong here! read more

The fish and chips were very good. A recommendation would be to offer one fish fillet as a half portion and increase the coleslaw which is excellent and decrease the fries. The ladies would appreciate a half portion. The shrimp tacos were excellent as well, loaded in the tortillas, and a nice size on the shrimp. The Mexican corn on the cob needed a grilled edge which will offer more flavor and sprinkling of cheese with the spices. The corn was boiled and then rolled in the cheese that was mixed with the chili powder. This is a simple dish that can be a great complement to a meal. This was the only disappointing part of our meal. Loved the moscato wine from Italy. Nice pairing. read more

We went to see the beautiful Christmas lights of Fredericksburg, but also enjoyed a great meal. We had the queso fundido. It was served smoking hot with crumbled chorizo and corn tortillas. I actually prefer flour tortillas with my fundido, but it was nice that these were served with pico, sour cream and avocado sauce. Our main courses were the Nury's spicy burger and the bacon & blue burger. They were both huge burgers served on grilled, soft buns. I did not find the spicy burger to have much heat at all. In fact, the bacon jam was rather sweet. The bacon & blue burger was fantastic. Lots of blue cheese, bacon and toppings (lettuce, tomato, onion & pickles) made it a messy bunch of deliciousness! The fries were crispy and hot. Very good meal. read more

Everything was a win! The food was incredible!! The crab nachos had PLENTY of crab meat!! They were not lacking on flavor. The different Aioli emphasized the amazing tastes! The chicken flautas were served with a Ranchero sauce on top, which was different. I'm used to eating flautas dry with sour cream and avocado, but this was a pleasant change up. The rice was not the traditional Mexican style. It was white rice seasoned deliciously with corn, peas, and carrots mixed in. The white sangria had the perfect amount of sweetness but wasn't overly sweet. Tangy, fruity, and refreshing! This place will definitely be a regular lunch spot for us! The value was definitely there due to portion size and flavor. The service was also excellent. read more
