Fresco — Restaurant in San Marcos

I was cautiously excited when I first saw the advertising for Fresco. As someone determined to make healthier food choices, a restaurant focused exclusively on fresh bowls sounded like a dream come true.

🥗 Fresh & Customizable Options: Fresco lives up to the hype! Customers can choose between a premade "Lifestyle Bowl" or a "Build Your Own" option, allowing for plenty of variety. Each bowl starts with a base of rice or greens, includes two proteins, several toppings, and is finished with a flavorful sauce.

🍗🥦 Balanced Protein Selection: One of the standout aspects of Fresco is its balanced protein offerings—about 50/50 between carnivore and herbivore/vegan options. This was a refreshing change from the meat-heavy dining scene in San Marcos.

🍽️ Final Thoughts: If you're looking for something fresh, flavorful, and a great value, Fresco is absolutely worth a visit. Give them a try for your next meal—you won’t be...

I didn’t even feel like I was eating “healthy”. Dining area is large enough to have a group without being too close to others. There are so many options and the seasonings on the options all go well together. You don’t even need their dressings. I paid ten dollars and change and I will be full for the rest of the night. There is nothing there that will tempt you to eat poorly. I didn’t even see a soda machine just juices and filtered water. You can order anything they offer when watching what you eat no matter what your diet style. The people here were nice & the store is clean. This place is a winner for sure.

They do not...

Hands down, this place is a must-try if you’re craving something fresher and tastier than your usual Chipotle-style spot! I was in San Marcos for a little retail therapy and searched for healthy dinner options—and I’m so glad I found this place!

The service? Super fast and friendly. The food? Absolutely delicious—every bite was packed with flavor. And the passion fruit with Tajín... pure perfection!

I ordered the double protein bowl, and it was incredibly generous for the price—I couldn’t even finish it all and had to take the rest home.

Honestly, I’d happily make the drive from Austin just to enjoy this again....
