What Isabel Harrod doesn't like about Italian Garden:
Got this dish to-go called Fettuccine Primavera and it tasted horrendous. Not enough oil on the pasta, tastes like cardboard, inedible. My partner got beef cannelloni, that?s was good. 1/2 isn?t a passing score. View all feedback. What Nick Cagle likes about Italian Garden:
All in all a great experience. Staff seemed a little overwhelmed for a Sunday lunch crowd. 3 people working the front desk and dining room. Food was great. the crab cakes were delicious. Get the Tour of Italy to try a few different menu options. View all feedback.

read moreItalian Garden received mixed reviews from our diners, with opinions ranging from disappointment to delight. While some patrons found the food to be lacking in quality, with dishes like the Fettuccine Primavera described as tasting like cardboard, others enjoyed their meals immensely, particularly highlighting the delicious crab cakes and various pasta options. The service was another point of contention, with some expressing frustration at the lack of attentiveness from new hires, while others praised servers like Madison for their friendly and efficient service. Despite these mixed reviews, Italian Garden remains a popular spot in San Marcos, with its central location near Texas State University and offerings like meat lover's pizza and fresh, house-made sauces drawing diners from far and wide.
