Stopped into Native Blends today and loved it!…read more My family stayed in the car while I ran in -- Elmer, the owner, was setting up chairs, but he immediately paused to take my order. Even when I told him there was no rush, he was attentive, kind, and ready to help. Super polite and easy to talk to. Ordered three smoothies -- the Blind Sally was a big hit with my husband and son (sweet, fresh, and flavorful). I had the Aquarena, which was nice and tart and exactly what I wanted. Everything tasted very fresh. The shop is clean, well kept, and has a cool, youthful vibe with some clothing and items to look through. We chatted briefly about my neighbor who recommended the place and their bowls -- I'll definitely be back with the kiddos to try those! Great experience overall. Friendly owner, quality smoothies, and a spot definitely worth supporting!

You can pretty much make your own bowl, though adding extra toppings beyond a set amount costs more. Everything tasted fresh, service was quick, and the interior was cozy and festive for the holidays. It'd be five stars if they had more topping options and didn't charge for additional toppings, or more than one base (either way it's only enough to fill the cup).

I asked the cashier what his favorite drink was and he said the Taro Cream boba, so I got that. Taro Cream boba- I got it with 25% sweetness and it was WAY too sweet. I can't imagine how it would even taste if it was 100% sweetness. It did taste like taro and cream, but the sugar was WAYYY too much for me to even like this drink. I'd never get this drink again, but I would any drink that doesn't have tea at 0%. The boba was more on the squishy side which I didn't mind. Overall, I would not voluntarily come here again. Honestly, I don't like the boba in San Marcos.

My wife had visited years ago, and a close friend had recently recommended it, so it seemed like a good opportunity to give it a try. The building itself is beautiful. We parked in the rear lot and entered through the bakery, which immediately caught our attention. There was an impressive variety of pastries on display, and the kids were quickly informed they could each pick one out later if they behaved. The restaurant also has several colorful walls and decorative displays that make for fun photo opportunities and selfies. We were seated at a large table toward the back near the restrooms. Service was friendly throughout the meal and reasonably attentive despite the restaurant being busy. To drink, I ordered the jalapeño prickly pear margarita, while my wife chose a peach, coconut, and strawberry margarita. Both had excellent flavor. My wife's drink was especially memorable--it tasted like a cross between a strawberry margarita, peach bellini, and piña colada. The only thing missing was a little more tequila, as both drinks leaned more toward the sweet side than the spirited side. The chips were slightly thicker than I typically prefer but still enjoyable, and the salsa selection was excellent with a pleasant level of heat. The kids ordered bean and cheese tacos from the children's menu, and the restaurant happily substituted fruit for rice without any upcharge, which we appreciated. For our entrees, my wife ordered the vegetarian enchiladas while I chose the fajitas. The fajitas were good overall, though the meat portion felt a bit light and seemed stretched by a generous amount of green peppers. The rice, however, was excellent and one of the better components of the meal. Before leaving, we visited the bakery. The kids enjoyed their donuts and cookie, while I opted for a guava empanada that turned out to be one of the highlights of the visit. Overall, Casa Maria impressed me more with its atmosphere, bakery, and creative drinks than with the food itself. It's a beautiful restaurant with a fun family-friendly vibe, a strong bakery program, and some excellent margarita flavors. I'd gladly stop back for the pastries and drinks--and if they ever decide to be a little more generous with the tequila, even better.

Best Wheatgrass in San Marcos! The fruits and vegetables are all local. I had a Sour Slurp today with fat burner in it and that smoothie was delicious! And of course I had a 2 oz shot of Wheatgrass to go with it. I think tomorrow I will try the soup. I'm so excited! read more

Nothing like a big shot of wheatgrass and smoothie for breakfast! I love that they use plant milks and everything is fresh unlike other smoothie places that use artificial flavorings, syrups and mixes. I just wish they had plant protein instead of whey. read more

Now w that said, I should have noticed no chocolate was in my drink... but after a long shift my brain was checked out....hence needing the coffee at 7:30 at night. I am used to my Austin locations and so I am disappointed by the lack of attention to detail. I understand the location is new.. but that makes it even more important to be super focused to Leave a great impression on those in Kyle. The employee was nice, just wish my order was right for paying $6.95 for the smallest drink ever. I probably will only be back for the raw food and Pre bottled juices.
