Today I was in Corpus for a movie and heading home to Port Aransas when I spotted this location. No drive through,so I went inside. Wow! The service blew me away. The young man helping me was patient even asking me how the brisket and turkey slices looked as he brought them up front from the cutting board. You could tell they were a tight team and when I commented they were some of the best,he assured me they had an excellent manager and everyone wanted a great operation. What a great find in this day and age I left heading back to Port A I was gonna have a nice Q meal in the fridge, ready to hear up. Go!

This was our first time in Corpus Christi. In my trip planning, I used Yelp to research BBQ…read moreRestaurants for the best ones. This was my pick and we were not disappointed. We ordered beef ribs and baby backs ribs. My beef rib had the best flavor I have ever had! It could have had some more meat on it but the owner and I talked and we both know the butchers these days are cutting them a little to close. Next time I want the brisket because if the rib tasted this good I can't wait for the brisket. Our pork ribs on the other had were extra meaty. Tender and juicy. The atmosphere is just what I like in a classic but comfortable BBQ restaurant. On a hot rainy day, AC is much appreciated... Until my next visit, we look forward to returning.

I…read morewant to support Small Businesses like this one but I have never experienced so many separate bad instances at a restaurant in less than an hour. We're from out of town and picked this place because of the 4.5 stars. The BBQ is tasty but this review is based on their service. We walked in at 2pm and this place closes at 3pm. The lady who took our order did not greet us & smile one time, and had attitude about our questions. I asked her twice if they had creamed corn and silence. It was hard to get an answer out of her. Ok, no big deal, we can get past that. We found a booth at the front, on the side, sat with our two kids- a toddler and a baby. Feed the baby while we waited for our food. Clearly we had our hands full and we were one of two tables there. They called my name, while my husband and I were trying to settle the kids. Three employees at the pick up area, and none brought our food. Could have been a small gesture that means a lot to parents. Ok, again, no big deal- that was just an observation. What really tipped us over was when one of the employees turned off the lights JUST on our side of the restaurant at 2:20pm when we had just started eating. It's already dark in this place with the lights on. She came by and said "you can leave everything there and we'll come get it when you're done" I asked her if the lights were going to stay off and she said "yeah that's what we do when start to close, but don't rush" No smile and said it as she walked away. Don't rush?! You just turned off the lights on our side of the room. You clearly want us out. I am not asking to roll out the red carpet but one smile and nice gesture would have turned things around. Would absolutely not recommend, the food is not worth the TERRIBLE service.

While there's some debate as to whether beef ribs should fall off the bone or just be pullable off…read morethe bone, there is NO debate that beef ribs should be so tough as to be unchewable and be so difficult to cut through the server had to get a second, sharper knife to cut through them. I ordered two beef rib plates (one with sausage added) and when I got home neither my wife nor I could tear the meat off the bone. There was plenty of fat under the bark, but the meat itself was like shoe leather. There was smoky flavor, but it stayed with the meat that refused to release its grip on the bone. The two plates cost over $50 and it was the worst 50 bucks I've ever spent on food. Absolutely the worst beef ribs I've EVER come across. AVOID THE BEEF RIBS AT SILVERADO.

I was surprised when most of my friends and coworkers had never even heard of it, and later, I gleefully showed them pictures of the baby-sized taco I ordered. For $12, you can't go wrong. The looks of awe from the faces of the children at the next table as they brought the foil-wrapped wonder out, were worth it alone. It came with potato, sausage, bacon, brisket, chorizo, egg, and cheese. I finished maybe an eighth of the taco there, and my boyfriend couldn't put down any more than a quarter of it at a time, afterwards. It was good enough to have for nearly every meal between the two of us until it was gone the next day. Portion-wise, it would probably feed four hungry adults with no leftovers. I only wish it would've been more chorizo-heavy, but this is a minor gripe. No-substitutions, otherwise I would have ordered it with more chorizo and potato, and less sausage. Be sure to take plenty of pictures, because this thing is impressive and you're sure to be the envy of your friends on social media if that's your shtick.
