    I made reservations for NYE on 12/30 and was surprised they had so much availability. Although in San Marcos, I woukd consider it a hidden gem. Great food, ambiance, and service. Perfect for a low key NYE and we would definitely go back.

    It was a great dinning experience at Brickmans. We enjoyed the holiday decor and music! Very festive. Our waitress Reese made our dinning experience exceptional. She took the time to go over the menu and answer our questions. We would definitely return! Food was amazing. The appetizers were delicious! My favorite was the cream of mushroom soup… best I’ve ever had. Their salad selections were great! I’d recommend the beets and goat cheese salad. The Atlantic Salmon was my favorite! And can’t forget the drinks! Amazing as well. Definitely go and have lunch or dinner at Brickmans. Highly recommend it and if you get Reese as your server you are in a fabulous experience!

    The “Miracle” pop up bar was so pretty and festive. Over the top decorations. Food and cocktails were great! Logan did a fine job serving us. Love this restaurant at Lake San Marcos.

    We had Christmas dinner at 5pm and everything was excellent until time to get the bill. We had to wait quite a while to get it and then for them to cash us out. They said the computer went down for a minute. Our waiter had a couple of large tables so we understood, but it lessened the experience.

    We dined here on Christmas Day (4pm) I am unable to have dairy, the waitress was sweet and asked the kitchen what they could do and said the salmon I ordered can be prepared with a chimichurri sauce on top. Someone other than our waitress brought our meals. The salmon was plain. No lemon wedge, no garnish, no chimichurri sauce. No waitstaff to be found so we just ate our food. It was overpriced and nothing special. When the waitress came back to clear our plates she asked how the sauce was, told her there was no sauce. She just looked at us, no price adjustment or accommodation was given. Definitely will not be back. Food was mediocre and overpriced.
