Superb food but simple ambiance. Note this review is for the dining room, not the event center. They have a full bar and an event center that is often used on weekends. Great selection of seafood and some European dishes like the Schnitzel and Goulash. Crab...Read More

Happy hour appetizer with every drink was awesome and delicious. I had to order the crab cake because the bartender, Cazy, said it was the best in town. He wasn't kidding, best crab cake with buerre blanc sauce in Corpus.
