Margaritas are terrible. I've never had a bad margarita and I was gagging. It was foul. Thankfully the staff took it off our bill and replaced the drinks. The mixed drinks were better. The food itself was good but avoid the rice as a side. The speakers are far too loud and the live bands they bring in aren't very good but you will definitely hear them. Staff was great tho. It's a cute place but not worth it. I'd go elsewhere. read more

Plus 1 star for the band and friendly service. I went in the off season. My fish was cooked well, the drinks were fast and the view was awesome. read more

Pier 99 - Black drum fish grilled, served over rice and topped with sautéed onion which was good actually. Side of new potatoes and cole slaw. - Seafood Near Me - Corpus Christi, Texas

I rate restaurants on 4 core values which is Customer Service, Taste of food, Price & Cleanliness. Service - Is okay. It's not bad but they also don't go out of the way to do anything extra. The waitress's was nice and came to check on us often. Taste - I liked the snapper but the shrimp Diablo jalapeños were small and overcooked. Value - For 2 adult meals spent $70 and The amount of food they give was not what was in the picture, we ordered the snapper with Cajun sauce. Cleanliness- Despite the outside look the inside is clean. Restrooms don't compare to Buc-ee's but it's usable. Overall - I recommend this place for the music but the Food could use upgrade qualify. read more

Pier 99 - Turtle cheesecake - Seafood Near Me - Corpus Christi, Texas

I have been here countless times, coming down from Houston. I really don't understand the lower overall score here. Solid food at a reasonable price. Outdoor seating (limited indoor seating available) with friendly staff and occasional live music that's really good. This place is incredible. read more

Really looking forward to this visit but it was a let down. The girls had a seafood boil but it had no flavor, hot boiled peel shrimp for appetizer and bland as well. The boudin balls were ok as well as the seafood dip. I had the clam chowder and it was ok, just light on the cream and clam. My mom had the fried shrimp platter and they were chewy and rubbery. Sorry to say, it was a let down. The scenery and proximity to the beach is great and parking was accesible. Nice to walk about and take in the breeze. The music on Saturday was a bonus and enjoyed it. The service was great and the waitstaff were very attentive. read more

Great food! Good selection and reasonable prices. Portions were generous. Sat outside as there was shade and a breeze. Pleasant service.

Food was Amazing and Hailey our server was amazing too love the outside area nice live music and a great atmosphere while you get to eat seafood I love it here and we will definitely be back 5/5 from me!!! read more

First time here. Blackbeards had a long wait. Ordered mahi fresh fish of the day with green beans, brocolli and added 4 shrimp grilled. Mahi was dry and seemed overcooked. Needed tartar which seemed homemade. Green beans canned and fatty bacon was added. Brocolli was steamed but still crunchy. Shrimp were good. Super cold inside even with jackets on. A guy was singing, which was cool. Place seemed more like a bar. (34) read more

I brought my husband here for his birthday. He always loves this place and they never disappoint. I love the food which they never go wrong but especially the service is outstanding. These two girls Saleh and Grace made us feel special and to say today even more so that Victor was really surprised. We come to Corpus and first place we think of is Pier 99 . Thank you Pier 99 for being the best. We also have to include the manager Doug too. Thank you read more

The fish tacos and the clam chowder are fantastic! It had excellent flavor and the portions are generous!

I have eaten here a few times live music great service good food and drinks I think the drinks to good that's why I'm just making a post differently one of my favorite spots in the short time we have been here read more

DO NOOOOOT,I repeat do not order the oysters, very hard to eat, too small, could barely get them out of the shell because they didn't shuck them correctly. Our waitress was very rude, store bought onion rings. I regret coming here read more

Salina was awesome and the food great as always! if you're looking for a relaxing hang out with great food and service go here!

A Monday night, not at all crowded. Only four other tables were seated and a couple people at the bar. Our waitress arrived pretty quickly after we were seated and introduced herself and a trainee. Water, soda, and one beer were ordered, along with one appetizer. Water and soda came promptly, but it was 10 minutes for the beer and I had to ask about it. It was obvious it had been forgotten from their reaction and when brought was warmer than it should have been. We were checked on a couple times, dogs were brought water. Our appetizer arrived. Maryland crab cakes but they were full of bell peppers and onions - definitely a no-no for something called a "Maryland crab cake." We ordered our entrees when the appetizer was delivered. Now my warm beer was long gone and it had been easily 15 minutes since we'd seen either waitress, in a now even more empty restaurant. I ordered another beer when one of them finally appeared. We waited 40 minutes for a grilled chicken breast with sides, Cajun pasta, and chicken Alfredo. Except the correct sides didn't arrive with the chicken breast and the Alfredo didn't arrive at all. Someone other than our waitress brought the two entrees out. Ten minutes later we found one of our waitresses and asked about the correct sides and missing entree. "Oh, it got mixed up with another table. It'll be right out and I'll get those sides." Nice of someone to tell us. It was another 15 minutes and I'd finished my Cajun pasta (which was really tasty) and my husband had finished his very small chicken breast with no sides, because the correct ones never arrived. Lo and behold our daughter's Alfredo arrived. Asked about the missing sides again. They never did appear. We asked for our check and it had an extra entree on it. It took so long before the waitress came back that I got up and went looking for her. I explained the extra entree and got "Oh, I'll take that off." No oops or sorry. Another 15 for a corrected ticket. So, if you're looking for an extremely leisurely meal and aren't too picky about what and when it is brought to you, eat here. read more

Cool place and atmosphere. Service was great, very friendly staff. But in my opinion it was overall mid. Ordered a burger and it was very dry and tasteless. Tasted like a frozen patty they threw on the grill. Seafood gumbo was mid but not bad. The flys were crazy outside and inside seating had a semi weird odor. Wasn't insanely bad but I wouldn't necessarily pick this place again read more

Great place, location, drinks, and dog friendly! The USS Lexington is awesome to see sitting on patio outside.

Great food and service! We love Corpus Christi and will Definitely be back for more crab read more

I was here the last week of May, 2025. I have eaten here many times. The food has always had awesome flavor and texture. This time the Mega Gumbo was very spicy. I have always had a rich brown gumbo sauce. Never seen a "Orange" color gumbo sauce. The shrimp was a little mushy. The paprika was used very heavily sprinkled all over the bowl. The Best part of the meal was the "Key Lime Pie!" Service- Good, when we saw them. This must have been their "Off" Day! I will be back. read more

Live music, friendly workers, delicious food. We ordered the shrimp bonanza and although the kitchen took a while the vibes were good and our server Hailey H was amazing! Shrimp was cooked great, would recommend. read more

Pier 99 - Shrimp Bonanza - Seafood Near Me - Corpus Christi, Texas

When the gratuity is already included on the bill, it should not affect the level of service provided to customers. Just because a tip has been added does not mean that staff should neglect refills or check on patrons. Unfortunately, our experience at this establishment was disappointing. The food was not impressive, and the drinks, particularly the tea, lacked sufficient ice. Overall, our visit was unsatisfactory, especially considering it was our first time here. read more

Food was good. Service though left a lot to be desired. Our group was 5 adults and 1 child. We had to wait roughly 25 minutes before we even were able to give our drink order but that was after we asked who our server was. I assume the manager was the man who took our order while apologizing to us for being overlooked after being seated, a party of six that was seated after us had their drinks and eating before we even got to place our order . Then it seemed like every server in the place was bringing our order as well as other tables orders to us . It turned out our server was the lady that seated us. This was the worst dining experience I've ever had. read more

We enjoyed this place last time we were in town so we decided to go again while on vacation. It's near the museums and aquarium and walking distance from a lot of places including North beach. There's a great view and they make excellent drinks. We recommend the fried calamari and fish tacos. We had a party of 6 and my order was not put in so I had to wait while everybody else ate so that was disappointing, would've been nice to get an apology. Also there is live music but it's pretty bad so made sure you order some drinks ha ha. So even with short comings I still recommend this place for location views and drinks. read more

We came in 30 minutes before closing on a Wednesday night. The service was still great, and there was live music happening until 10. I dig the patio, and the nice ocean breeze. Overlooking the USS Lexington all lit up at night is a nice bonus. The food was pretty good. I really liked their ceasar dressing. Next time I need to remember that it's dog friendly. I missed that, and we left our dogs crated at the Air BnB. read more

My husband and myself went for dinner 9/15/2025. Order the fried calamari. I order Grilled Flounder served over rice, lemon butter Blanche sauce and green beans and coleslaw, hubby order the fried oyster platter Hallie was our server she was great. They were having some contest with the server, we were supposed to scan a code and do a survey. Sorry Hallie I couldn't remember my Gmail. Calamari was border like rubber. My food was great just wish I was given a choice between rice or potato. Would recommend read more

Food was good, drinks were watered down but overall a good location. Our server was nice.

Ate here twice while in Corpus. Food, staff and atmosphere was great but beware.... We were asked if we were paying with cash or credit card. We said cash. When we got our bill the waitresses (both visits) charged the extra up charge for using a credit card but we did not use our card. We paid cash. So, check your bills and make sure you're being charged correctly for everything. We didn't see the mistake on our first visit bill until we got back to our hotel but we did catch our second visit. We called it to the attention of our waitress. She was not too happy. She said now I'll have to redo the bill. Then she came and just gave us the over charge money amount back to us which was okay. All in all we would definitely go back to this restaurant but also check our bill. read more

This is our go-to restaurant in Corpus. The atmosphere is perfect, right on the bay. The food is good. Something for kids and adults. If you don't like seafood (like me), they still have a couple of options for you. Go expecting a beach-town restaurant. Very laid back, but lots of fun. read more

Save your money and go some where better! Came to this place with reasonable expectations. It was Sunday night, and the place was very empty and the hostess refused to set us an ocean view table because it was a six seater, and she said only large parties could sit there. Those tables remained empty all night. We decided to go to the bar and get some food there. The service was very low energy. No one seems to be happy to be there. We ordered appetizers both of which they were completely out of, no clams, and no Mexican shrimp cocktail, I got tired of asking for appetizers, so we ordered food which was good. I would also like to know this place was completely infested with mosquitoes. I couldn't hardly enjoy my meal, because I spent all my time swatting mosquitoes away. I've been to a lot of outdoor venues, but this one was ridiculous. Go elsewhere... read more
