Kimchi fries are a must try
Shelly H.

The Kim chi fries blew my mind good! So unique and full of flavor! We got (we thought lunch special but were charged for dinners) beef lo mein which was such a good dish. They do use thin noodles but it was still good. Great amount of meat and the portion size could easily be 3-4 meals for me alone! Hubby got the sweet and sour chicken and enjoyed his meal, but did mention it could use some seasoning in the batter. He was happy it was truly all white meat. Both our egg drop and hot and sour soups were good! The service was semi slow, but she did a great job for how busy they were! It was an easygoing casual vibe. We would recommend as what we had was good and there is sooo much variety so anyone can find something they would like.

Steak Fingers and skinny fries

Edit: I came back for another visit wanting to try their pho, but i started with the calamari, OUTSTANDING!! Maybe the best I've ever had! Huge portion and only $10!!! The atmosphere and service were great and the food was delicious! Will definitely be back here!

Fried fish tacos
Adrianna C.

Our #1 food spot in Rockport! Honestly, the beach here isn't super impressive in our opinion but I will happily drive down from San Antonio just to eat here. The food is always incredible. They have the absolute best fish tacos I've ever had. And I eat, and make a lot of fish tacos. On our last visit we stayed for three days and ate here twice. A month later we are planning yet another trip and the food here is the biggest allure. Their prices are unbeatable for the portions and quality. Their burgers are always very tempting, maybe on my next visit I will branch out... but those fish tacos have me hooked! My hubby usually gets their fried fish platter and it's all excellent. We have traveled all over the US and this place serves some of the best seafood we have ever had.

Had the fish tacos with a salad.  It was WONDERFUL!!

It was busy when we arrived around 130pm on a Saturday but we were sat within 10 minutes. We were a party of 5 and all ordered something different and nothing disappointed!! Food was wonderful! Our server was nice didnt really check on us too often for refills or anything but the food and ambiance made up for it. Next time we are back in town we will definated go back!!

Pho Ga and beef with fried rice. 10/10!
Hattie A.

The best pho ever!!! Service is amazing as well as the ambiance. Lots of TVs and seating. Highly recommend.

Menu for Hu-dat
Kim O.

Just to be clear Benchwarmers & Hudat are a combined restaurant that you can mix and match menu items at this location. This location is conveniently within walking distance of several hotels and was recommended by our hotel concierge. However, my experience at Benchwarmers was disappointing. I ordered the Fulton Burger from their menu, which had fried oysters placed between two burger buns. Unfortunately, the oysters were small and some of them had a strong fishy taste. I found it surprising that a place as busy as Benchwarmers could serve seafood with such an unpleasant flavor. The restaurant has a system with drink runners and food runners, but despite that, my fries were only lukewarm and almost cold. We had to make eye contact with the drink runner to get refills, and our main waitress only returned to give us the bill without even introducing herself. The atmosphere of the place felt similar to a busy Joe's Crab Shack, and it wasn't conducive to hanging out with friends since it was difficult to hear people on the other side of the table. With numerous employees walking around, it lacked a sense of personal attention. Additionally, the drinks were served in Styrofoam cups. In conclusion, I do not recommend this place. During my trip, I visited better spots for dining. However, a friend insisted on trying Benchwarmers and kindly paid for our meal as a wedding gift.

Fried cheese curds- yum.
