"Ate dinner with friends you recommended the restaurant. I was very impressed on the quality of food and the atmosphere. Nice hidden 💎 downtown. Gotta be a local to even know it's there. I can highly recommend you stop by and try when in the area."
Daniel Henderson
"I very much enjoy coming to Cody's overall. I love the beef Wellington and the drinks are great! Sometimes a little on the saltier side. Service is generally good but can be hit and miss, especially for the quality of restaurant this is. It always seems to take a while to get service but I don't usually mind because the food is yummy. It can also get quite noisy but they also have an outdoor area.
THE BRUSCHETTA IS AMAZING, we ordered 2, highly recommend"
Sadie
"Amazing food! Great service, and rooms with different
atmospheres. We had the Tuna Brie appetizer (more ingredients than yellow fin tuna and cheese) the flavors paired wonderful and was a great start 10/10. I had the Beef Wellington as my main
course, it was my first time having that and it did not disappoint 10/10. For dessert I had the crème brûlée…absolutely perfect 10/10. Service was spectacular! She was very knowledgeable about the menu and made excellent recommendations. Will be back!"

The Top 10 best restaurants in New Braunfels
When the Top 10 trattoria 188 South next door to Krause’s Cafe closed last year, it opened the door for the well-regarded bistro and chophouse Cody’s in San Marcos to expand southward. The result is a refined operation tucked into this former newspaper office on Castell Avenue, a warren of red bricks and black leather with a full-service bar and a kitchen that turns out a lush Wagyu flat-iron steak, a clever appetizer with tuna tataki and tempura-fried brie and an Asian-influenced dish of seared scallops with ponzu sauce and candied pork belly.
