After hearing about the Gristmill from my co-worker, after we moved to San Marcos, we ate at the Gristmill on our first weekend.
Service was very good - but they were very crowded and hard to hear one another talk at the table.
The food - not a huge selection, but they did have a mainly large beef menu.
The meat was good - but IMHO not as great as some other people have stated.
Maybe I was expecting a WOW type factor, but no, just a very good meal.
Was it worth it...maybe...but I found something better and it is only a few hundred yards up the street...Gruene River Grill...more selection of food and I felt it had better tasting food.
But don't take my word for it...go do both restaurants and you decide.
Pros: View of the river and the steaks are just okay for me.
Cons: Not a large selection of food and the taste was average.
