Lab C Food Kitchen - San Marcos — Restaurant in San Marcos

My brother opens restaurants for a living. He’s taking me to a lot of top rated Vietnamese restaurants, around Texas. I can tell you, this Vietnamese restaurant is really good and definitely ranks very high up for me. I tried out the beef broth, no Veggies or meat just a pure beef broth to get into the needy, greedy, and it was aromatic, flavorful, savory. After that, I went ahead and order a couple more plates I would have to say the spring roll, and the lab C special go hand-in-hand. The lemonade was perfect not too sweet was aromatic and I can tell you they use good quality water. I say this because I hate when food places use faucet water on flavored house made drinks. The little things show me that they really care about the food experience and the quality of the meals. We’re very fortunate that we have a really good Vietnamese restaurant nearby now in San Marcos Texas…. I will...

I have been looking for a good Vietnamese for some time now, and today I finally found it! This place exceeded our expectations. everything from the drinks and apps to the main dish was absolutely divine! To start i had a Vietnamese iced coffee that was so good I ordered 2 more to go. absolutely a must have if you go. for appetizers we got the cheese puffs and fried dumplings. they did not stand a chance. they were an absolute hit with my kids. For the main dishes we ordered a Banh mi and combination fried rice (which I'm please to say was actually spicy like we asked!!) as well as combination kids plates. The portion sizes were definitely bigger than most places which I love. definitely more bang for your buck! The owner Gilbert, was super sweet and truly gave us a wonderful experience. he is truly the best! This place has truly won our hearts, and we will be back in...

Lab C Food Kitchen has truly become a staple in our mid-week dinners. The food is consistently delicious, and their fried rice paired with the famous chicken spring rolls has become our go-to order. The spring rolls are honestly some of the best I’ve ever had.

I love how they let you choose your heat level, and the shredded carrots and cucumber on the side add the perfect balance to the fried rice dish. Their fried rice is hands down the best around, and it’s something I recommend to everyone I know. I find myself raving about Lab C to friends and family because it’s rare to find a place that nails both food and service this well.

Whoever is running this place has built a team that really cares, and it shows. Lab C isn’t just a restaurant—it’s a neighborhood gem we’re lucky to have. Come check...
