Listen Banda's is good. We ordered two fried flounder plates and one shrimp plate. We only paid about $40 dollars. The fish, shrimp and potatoes are delicious. I asked them if They are related to the Bandas on Gollihar and they said NO! That is great because the food at that location doesn't compare. I highly recommend. The fried onion rings and oysters are great as well. I always eat my items to go! I don't like the inside. read more

I LOVED this place. Listen, if I'm headed to a place where there is a beach, I'm having seafood SOMEWHERE. I was staying downtown and took a little 10 minute drive to this place. Don't let the neighborhood fool you. This place was delicious & inexpensive. I ordered the snapper platter. I wanted a side of coleslaw, but by the time I got there (4:00ish) they had run out. The snapper was so fresh with a nice crispy batter. Ugh it was so good. It came with three large potato wedges which also had a very LIGHT batter on them and I loved it. Personally, I am not a fan of beer battered fish, so I'm glad this one was the grainy type. I also don't eat rolls and even the roll was good!!! Lol Not a big selection of soft drinks so I ordered an unsweet tea. It was the brewed tea not instant so that is a plus for me also. Very simple, clean place. Wasn't crowded when I went, but there were people coming in & out for to go orders the whole time I was there. My cashier was very friendly also. If you're in Corpus, definitely put this on your list to try. I come to this area every several months and plan on hitting this place up every single time from here on out. Ps. The platter comes with tartar sauce, but I'm not a fan so I asked them not to put any on my plate. read more

The food is very delicious. Service was good. I personally got take out, but there is plenty of room for eating.

simple, but delicious. you can't go wrong here. It is my weekly treat to myself on a retired teacher's budget. I'll have ramen for a few nights so that I can afford a trip to Banda's. read more

AMAZING FOOD, ordered the Q option, the fried shrimp, fried oysters, and fried pollock were one of the bests I've ever had. 100/10 recommend and the staff is the most attentive and chill people ever. The exterior of the restaurant is okay but the inside is the coziest place ever and they play great shows on the TV. Definitely a place to visit in Corpus Chrisiti read more

Great seafood if you are in Corpus Christie. It's a small hole in the wall establishment and majority of customers take their food to go. The inside of the restaurant needs a renovation big time. Panhandlers were also coming in and out trying to sell you stuff while you are eating. There was not really anyone policing that issue. You are kind of on you own in the dining area if you need something you have to walk to the window. The menu is written on the wall and they have two windows to order and pick up. The great food is worth the visit. The portions were huge and the coating on the fish was crispy and fish itself was tender. Definitely stopping by here again but taking my food to go. read more

This was our first time eating here coming from San Antonio. We didn't understand the abbreviations on the menu at first and the cashier was kind enough to explain and help us choose what we wanted. Excellent customer service from her. The food was excellent we had a simple fried fish and shrimp. The potato wedges it comes with were huge and delicious. Sweet tea was perfect not too sweet and it was fresh. When my husband was going to throw away our trash one of the workers was kind enough to throw away our trash read more

First time ever eating here, and there's no regrets! It was soo delicious! The shrimp and fish were huge! Tarter sauce has a little kick to it, very good but different! Customer service was great and didn't wait too long. There's no place to sit inside but that was ok. read more

Always Great food , the Vera Cruz is to die for, that's my favorite, the service is Great,

Great hole in the wall fried seafood. You get you order, at a very fair price. Just a note, the pricing is a little off. Items I, N, and Q are are over double the price of G, L, and P. You get twice the food, but no potato wedges. Just FYI. And the onion rings are the best! read more

First time here and I was very skeptical to eat here because the look of the building outside was so old and I normally get grossed out by things like that. When we went no one was dining in lol but I will say that the place looked as clean as it could be in an old building like it is so that was good. The man who took our order didn't really greet us, so that was kind of weird but the food made up for it. We ordered the fried fish, shrimp and oysters with potato wedges and OMG... it was soooooo stinking good!!!!! I was so surprised lol everything tasted fresh and perfectly fried. The fried fish are small pieces, not a fillet, so keep that in mind when ordering. They give you a roll, lime and tarter sauce so we didn't have to ask for anything else. It's definitely a hole in the wall place but it's so worth it, please try this place! read more

The best thing on the menu is a Double grilled Veracruz. I have ordered it many times and it's just perfect. Get 15 Potato Wedges as well. This combo will serve two people. The grilled or fried fish fillets are also groovy. Pass on the small chunks of fried fish, mainly breading. They never seem to have Cole Slaw available. read more

Banda's Seafood - Double Grilled Veracruz. Awesome. - Seafood Near Me - Corpus Christi, Texas

We ordered take out & it was great. My bf and I ordered the shrimp, he got the potato wedges and I got the fried zucchini. The wedges were really good, but next time I will try something other than the zucchini. It was a little greasy. The shrimp was clean & was really good. Next time we go, I want to try the fish! Prices are really inexpensive, too! read more

Came back yet again this time I picked up the double flounder for my entire family three in total. They were all fresh hot and tasted so good. I don't know what kind of seasoning do you use or what process but it always taste consistently good. And the huge potato wedges with a little lemon complement the flounder so well. And then the delicious Hawaiian roll. read more

Banda's Seafood - Double flounder to go SOOOO GOOD - Seafood Near Me - Corpus Christi, Texas

Pros: dinner rolls and flounder Cons: stuffed crab, potato wedges, and I'm still baffled how it's the same breading and flavor used across the menu. The place didn't have a working A/C and it didn't smell right. I don't mind if the place isn't fancy; however, the olfactory aspect of a restaurant is important to me and how this place smelled didn't help with my experience here. read more

Really good fish and has been very consistant overtime i visit. The location is a little intimidating, and although we have never ate in, the dining room is very small. We always get the food to go and have never been disappointed! Yummy!!! :-) read more

First time here. I came because of Yelp comments and I like small local restaurants. Fish was fried to perfection. Potato wedges were battered in the same breading as the fish. Very tasty and they were huge. I ate inside, it was clean and the staff was friendly. I definitely recommend the food. read more

Like most have said this is classified as the good Ole "hole in the wall" place. The fish pieces are small compared to the fish joints in the San Antonio area. It wasn't the worst meal I've had but definitely nothing to rave about. They do have alot to choose from and we had the A 2 fish to 2 shrimp (see picture) and chicken strips that were average taste. Would I visit again probably not but as I said before they have alot on menu. Barely 3 Stars out of 5. Sorry Banda. read more

Been a little while since I've been here, but it's not because of dissatisfaction of any kind. Someone liked a photo from here and put it right back to the front of my thinking for lunch today. Glad it did. Great fish! Seasoned perfectly. if you're on the west side, feeling fishy, this is a must try. read more

Good food. Nice size shrimp. Fish are large nuggets but were very good. Onion rings were huge and wonderful. Only negative was the fountain drink. It had too much carbonated water and didn't taste right. Will definitely return. read more

Instead of Banda´s Seafood they should call this place Banda´s Fried Garbage Food!!! The food smelled bad and made us sick. Wish we would of read the reviews before trying this place. All I have to say is Beware!!! read more

I should've known it would've been bad by the way the building smelt just walking in. I ordered the stuff crab which "was the last two they had", fish , shrimp and fried mushrooms. The food smelt good when leaving, when we got home there was like 6 tiny / half mushrooms that where over cooked and either the oil was old or the breading becuase they tasted funny. We got confused on what was fish and what was shrimp becuase they used fish bits as filets and the shrimp was over breaded and spicy ( like a hushpuppy taste). The crab was so ugly tasting, it was freezer burnt and they over cooked it which gave it a oily taste. We couldn't even finish what we have because we where so disgusted. This place was nothing like the comments on here read. A big disapointment! Please don't waste your money here. read more

I hadn't been there in years. Shrimp is expensive and the shrimp are the size of a quarter. Fish was decent. Fries were not the same. Several items on the menu weren't available. I don't think we'll be going back anytime soon. read more

The best seafood ever! I've been a customer for years and I highly recommend. Their oysters are succulent and very tasty. I love potato wedges and when I can't finish them, I cook them the next day for breakfast and they taste great. The flounder fish is my favorite. Great prices! Great food! Thanks Banda. read more

Very good fried fish, shrimp, and oysters in a no-frills restaurant. Order and pick up your food at the counter. They also offer grilled fish and shrimp on their menu, we did not try it; we were in the mood for fried seafood. The place was very clean and the service was fast and friendly. They also accept credit cards. read more

Never been here before decided to give it a try. Seafood was good & fresh. A bit pricey however food was tasty. Service ok. Busy at lunch time , so be prepared to wait. Tartar sauce is very good and yummy. However you only get two with meal, they charge for any extras, tartar sauce, lemons etc. Only reason they get 4 stars. read more

Great fried flounder and fried okra. Was tired of the normal chains and this unique small restaurant is perfect. No AC but it added to the character of the place even on a 90degree day. The fan kept it cool. read more
