San Marcos, Siler City’s newest Mexican restaurant, opens buffet section

By VICTORIA JOHNSON

San Marcos Taqueria y Buffet opened a buffet section last Saturday, following weeks of preparation and county approval. And according to restaurant owner Bernardo Gallegos Rodriguez, that had always been the plan.

“For many people, it’s what they want,” he told the News & Record in May. “Many people don’t have time to come and wait for someone to cook for 10, 15 or 20 minutes, like those who work and see that they have half an hour for their lunch,” he said. “They want to arrive, serve themselves and eat. This is why I am doing it.”

San Marcos officially opened in Siler City in May. Located at 315 East Third Street, the restaurant is open daily from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m.
