    A quick search for Italian food nearby our hotel showed us this place. We were very impressed with the food! My husband is from Boston and Frank's definitely reminds of us both of a quaint East Coast Italian restaurant. The service was fast and friendly! Our entrees both came with salads and we ordered garlic bread which was so good! I ordered spaghetti and hubby ordered chicken parmigiana. The location wasn't difficult to find and only a couple of miles from our beach front hotel. The building is two story. The first floor dining room was small but romantic. I didn't see the upstairs but I would assume it's a bigger space as I did see their advertisement for banquet facilities. We will definitely be back next time we're in Corpus!

    The vibes here were great! It had such an authentic and home like feeling. Maria was the sweetest and the best customer service we've received in a long time, attentiveness and funny humor made this experience worth wanting to going back... she need to be a manager or a big raise lol. I wasn't to much a fan of the pizza it was good if your a thin crust kinda person but personally I prefer and a good amount of marinara sauce and thick crust but this one lacked both for me.. spaghetti was very delicious! Minestrone soup and mozzarella sticks are definitely highly recommended. 10/10 on that . Very interesting story behind the building itself. Go see for yourself! (:

    The interior is beautiful. Friendly, inviting, and almost homey. The service is impeccable. Our server was beyond nice, making wonderful recommendations as well as being honest about dishes. He was also incredibly kind (our cheesecake was free since it was a small size, the lemonade we were no charged for since we couldn't get a refill, and we also received a complimentary coffee). Overall truly outstanding. The food was also wonderful. Every dish was more delicious than the last one, but for me the cheese crostini was the star of the show. The desserts were a bit disappointing and definitely not as good as the rest of the meal. Nevertheless my family and I still thoroughly enjoyed our meal. Definitely worth checking out!

    My grandpa LOVES this place, so I had to stop by before heading home. I had a strong craving for spaghetti and meatballs, and it was delicious. The noodles were a bit undercooked, but the rest made up for it. The meatballs are BIG! I just ordered two and got pretty full. They're well seasoned and perfectly cooked. I also ordered fried mushrooms which were so crispy and perfect to dip in ranch. The ambiance is so great. The checkered table cloths. The dim lighting. The woodsy interior. Love it all!

    Off the beaten track in a quaint historic building, been in business since 1921! Locally owned I got take out spaghetti and tomato basil soup. It was very affordable and more than worth the $8 I paid. Nice friendly server guy Josh told me about history of the restaurant. I enjoyed it and would go back if I lived here. BYOB

    Good Italian food in an ambiance that appears to stand the wheels of time. This was my first time here but I have a feeling that this place hasn't changed in a couple of decades. Alfredo sauce and the lasagna were my favorite, Oh and btw two free wine glasses!

    Mehhhh. I probably wouldn't return here. The prices are quite high for the amount and quality of food you get. The cheesy garlic bread was $10, which is a little high for bread, but it was good! The two chicken dishes we got were just OK, and the portion sizes are honestly quite small for $16 plates. The service was great and the waiter was very attentive and nice. The ambiance is a quaint small Italian place. I like to support local, but you would be better off cooking a homemade pasta for the money.

    Been here before and wasn't crazy about it but today things are different. Good staff, the food was great and prices were good as well. Nice low lit dining. Definitely a nostalgic feeling... that place has gotta be haunted. Cool place

    The shrimp Parmesan is ass, the salad sucks too. Wouldn't recommend, don't recommend.

    Shrimp fettuccine!

    We discovered this place last November. Their Bloody Marys are fantastic. Everything on the menu…read morehas been top-notch. Erika was our server. Very attentive and helpful!

    Good food for sure, a bit on the pricey side for breakfast. Being a family-inclusive establishment,…read morethere's a good chance groups of kids are present and when we were here, there was a table of very badly behaved adults AND children which created a very disruptive environment. Staff just stood and stared at them instead of asking them to take it down about 8 notches. It really took a good bit of enjoyment away for a lot of customers. Since breakfast was available, we went in that direction...for lunch. Served all day. I got the Islander and wife got the Silver Alert. Mine was basically a larger version of hers. The sausage was really tasty. The hashbrowns on my plate (she didn't get them) were exactly like McD's or other fast food joints. I was hoping for homemade style and not frozen fast food style. The eggs tasted a little odd to me...maybe the oil used? Still tasty, though. Bacon cooked crispy. Good breakfast overall. Wife did want to try a starter and she chose the baked goat cheese/toast appetizer. She really enjoyed it...not really for my palate. Personal taste there. Several people who left reviews mentioned the wait time. We were told it would be 30 minutes when we arrived...but there's really no place for people to wait. However, they found a booth for a group sitting just inside the door and then asked if we would like to sit there. Sure...problem solved in about 5 minutes. Aside from the wait/no wait situation, it took a really long time for service and arrival of food. It's a smallish seating area overall for such business. Hopefully business is so good they'll look to expand to accommodate such demand.

    Don't try to go right now. Give it a few months…read more 3 FAILED ATTEMPTS. 9 months pregnant and tried 3 different times to dine, each time with no honest transparency with wait times. I really wanted to keep loving Bien Mérité, but after three attempts, I'm extremely frustrated. Each visit has involved inaccurate and constantly changing wait times. My first attempt on 4/10 around 2pm in the afternoon. It was just me and my 15month old baby, there was only 2-3 tables occupied and I was told 45 minute wait with an almost empty dining room. I asked the hostess due to me being 9 months pregnant and having a toddler if I could just at least sit down while waiting the additional 45 mins and was told no. So I totted out my baby and myself, bought pastries and left. The second attempt I was quoted an hour , waiting the full hour and checked back in with the hostess stand only to be told it was going to be an additional hour, on top of what we already waited again. Third attempt (Sunday, April 26) waited a full hour, checked in once again with the hostess and was told it is now going to be another 90 minutes on top of once again the hour we already waited. I understand waits happen, but this level of inconsistency feels disorganized and disrespectful of customers' time--especially when expectations are set incorrectly from the start. I'm just asking for transparency and honesty here. It's disappointing because the space is beautiful and I've always supported this business but the waitlist management and homestead stand seriously needs improvement on honesty and management of times.
