Almost looked like it was shut down, since the windows are blacked out, too! However, once you go inside, it's lively, the people are friendly, and it's a casual atmosphere. Unless you go at an odd hour, expect a wait. We waited around 10 mins at 9am on a Saturday. They have indoor and outdoor covered seating. There are also games for kids to play out front, but it's up against the parking lot with no barrier, so not the safest. Menu is huge, so hard to decide! However, I'd argue overpriced, even by today's crazy standards. Nearly every entree is $20+, which is crazy for breakfast in my opinion! I got one of the few cheaper entrees at around $16, and was disappointed by the quantity, but enjoyed the flavor of the sunrise sandwich. Comes with your choice of meat and one of several sides. Basically a glorified egg McMuffin meal at twice the price. Also got the tabby iced coffee, which was good.

Pros: This spot is a good place to hang out if you're looking for a casual bar with activities like billiards and darts. The vibe is fun without being overly packed, which made it easy to enjoy the space. They have darts (which are free, you just leave your ID), a pool table, and a music queue system where you can pick songs to play, which adds an interactive element to the night. I didn't try the food but the drinks were solid and did not disappoint. The overall energy of the place was welcoming, and the service was friendly and attentive, which made the experience even better. It's one of those spots where you can relax, hang out, and have a good time. Cons: Parking here is probably the biggest downside. The lot is really small and gets packed quickly, so I wouldn't recommend relying on it. We parked nearby after eating at Copper Kings Burgers and just walked over, which ended up being way easier. Verdict: If you're looking for a fun, chill bar in San Marcos with games, music, and good drinks, this is a great spot to check out. Just plan ahead for parking, but overall it's definitely worth it and I would come back again!

Came here for my fiancé's birthday…read more There were a lot of cars in the parking lot, so I thought the place would be packed. But I can't tell if most people were just in the bar area - we were able to get a booth! The place was nice and loud since every one was having a good time. Several parties of 3+ and I saw 1 party of 6. They were doing an explorer menu from Yucatan. Interesting thing to do during Black History Month - I won't lie. I was surprised to see it. But we ordered from that menu. We ordered the fried plantain that came with a sauce and cilantro, sausage and pepper soup, and the BBQ pork. I enjoyed everything except for the plantain. They were basically a huge disc that was slightly crunchy. I was not expecting that since if I want a crunchy plantain, I will eat actual plantain chips. The soup was fantastic! It was a bit spicy but not overwhelming and full of flavor. Wish I ordered a bowl instead of a cup. And last but not least, the BBQ pork was very good. Served on lettuce as well, so if you are doing keto you can omit eating the tortillas that came with the dish. It also had pickled red onions and a salsa. The salsa was mild and with everything in the taco, flavors were balanced. We also ordered 6 Cajun wings. But today, they didn't seem as flavorful, a pity really. A grilled cheese was ordered but with hamburger meat inside. That seemed good and it came with fries. Washed all of this down with a sour that was called Boozy Berry & my fiancé had a West Coast beer. Food was enjoyable, atmosphere was fun. We will be back again.

We found free parking on the street a block or two down from the restaurant. Service (4/5): You order at the counter and then they bring your food to you. A couple of things stand out to me about their service. I was looking at the menu and was about to order. Someone behind me cut in line without asking if I was ready to order. The lady working noticed this and asked me to order first. Humanity still exists! They also check on your periodically even though this isn't true table service which is a nice touch. On the flip side, they did try and upsell me to add bacon bits to my dish which I was all for until I saw it was a $3.50 upcharge. I asked them to remove it. A little too steep. Ambiance (4/5): My type of restaurant. Casual with some charm. We sat at a table across from the bar. They have some cool decor, too. No complaints. Drinks (4/5): I had a beer flight because I often can't say no to a flight. I love the variety and being able to try new beers, especially when I'm traveling. While they don't have a huge selection, they had just enough beers that were interesting for me to take the plunge. Food (4/5): I did the country poutine which comes with fries, gravy, fried chicken bites, and green onions. I'm a sucker for loaded fries so I couldn't say no. Especially for this twist on a classic poutine. Generous portion size as I had hoped. A little more chicken would have been nice, but outside of that, very solid.

The location has a pretty extensive menu written in chalk on the walk, and it's easy to read. There are choices of sandwiches, salads and a lot of great food in-between. After taking a minute to decide we went with the Southwest Chicken Salad ($16.99) as well as the Hawaiian Chicken Sandwich ($15.99) with a side of hushpuppies. The sauce on the salad was flavorful with just a bit of zest, and they gave us extra so that was really cool. It's a really comfy place to eat with a little bit of a Louisiana feel to it. For good food served by good people, this is the place!

First, there will be a line to order at the counter, don't worry, this place has a drive thru, they know how to cook and prepare food quickly. The menu is on the wall, simple, yet something for everyone. I ordered an egg and sausage breakfast with a coffee, my bride a chili cheese dog and soft drinks! (Came out to $21.93) Coffee and soft drinks are self-serve. We found a table and the serve brought our food to us. The food is served on paper plates and plastic utensils (and the server clears the table, there are no trash cans around). My breakfast was as good as a typical cafe style meal, only it cost $10 less. My bride said her dog was great. If you are looking for fresh food that is better than any fast food place this is the place to go. I can't wait to come back and get a burger and fries! Thank you Money Pit

We ordered the catfish, beef brisket, and cornbread, and every bite delivered. The catfish was perfectly crispy on the outside, flaky on the inside, and seasoned so well it deserved its own standing ovation. The brisket was so tender it practically surrendered to the fork. And the cornbread? Let's just say if they sold it by the pan, we'd be leaving with one tucked under each arm. The atmosphere was just as enjoyable as the food. Great soul music filled the room, but at the perfect volume where you could still have an easy conversation without shouting across the table. It created a warm, relaxed vibe that made us want to stay awhile. To top it all off, the staff was absolutely amazing. Friendly, welcoming, attentive, and genuinely happy to see their guests enjoying themselves. You can tell this isn't just a restaurant, it's a place built with heart. We came hungry, left happy, and are already trying to figure out an excuse to "just happen to be in the neighborhood" again. If you're anywhere near San Marcos, do yourself a favor and stop by Felix's BBQ with Soul. Your taste buds will thank you!

I genuinely avoid this place at all costs but I get dragged here by friends and clients. The quality of the food has deteriorated to such a level that it's genuinely inedible. And to top it all off, the last time I came here, they shrunk the menu, took away the side options, and STILL raised the prices. (You aren't struggling because of the quality of your food. This place is just miserable) 3 visits ago, a couple months back, I ordered a burger because tbh, how can you mess that up? I ordered a double patty with no fries. Of course there was only ONE patty left in the entire restaurant, oh well such is life, but to top it off: the patty smelled of rotten sewage. I spit it out and returned it without receiving any sort of refund. 2 visits ago, I ordered catfish nuggets because of my previous experience, and was served soggy fried fish with dripping wet cabbage like it was just pulled out of a colander without drying. Whatever right? ($24 pre tax/tip btw) Now yesterday, I ordered a grilled catfish filet because the fried version was disappointing. (WHICH TOOK 40 MINUTES OF MY LUNCH BREAK TO COOK?) Fish was meh. Over seasoned like someone spilled the pepper bottle on the grill. And the fries tasted like dirty sludge like the fryer hasn't been cleaned in weeks. And to add insult to injury, I tasted mildew in my Coke Zero. Whether it's the dishwasher or the lines in the soda machine I have no clue but how can I strike out every single time I come here? I swear this used to be MY JOINT. The food was so good and the ambiance was amazing. Now I genuinely feel my skin crawl whenever I walk by this place. I'm sorry Felix's do better. I'm incredibly tempted to report this place to the health department to whip some shape into these miserable people who are serving mediocre service to paying customers. The only reason I'm writing this is because I'm now sitting at home with a 101° fever and a swollen tonsil after coincidentally taking a giant gulp of moldy soda? Idk man
