    Delicious food with great atmosphere! When you come to Corpus you have to stop here in Downtown area of Corpus!

    Our visit was a result of a glowing recommendation regarding the burgers (which looked delicious)…read morebut I opted for the baked oyster trio. BEST DECISION EVER The Oysters Rockefeller were great, the Oysters New Orleans were fantastic, but the Oysters Robert were to die for. HOLY CRAP!

    I'm obviously in the minority when it comes to this restaurant. My dad has eaten here several times…read moreand insisted that we give it a try. He is usually a pretty good judge of restaurants, so I trusted his recommendation. Unfortunately, that turned out to be a mistake. Our server, A.K.--whom my dad has affectionately called "A.K. 47" for years--was wonderful. She was friendly, attentive, and did an excellent job. If you decide to visit, I would highly recommend asking to sit in her section. I ordered the oyster and shrimp plate, and unfortunately, it was disappointing. The shrimp were acceptable, although I have certainly had better. The oysters, however, were gritty with dirt and did not appear to have been properly cleaned before being fried. Both the shrimp and oysters were coated in a flour-and-cornmeal batter. It was fine, but nothing memorable. The coleslaw had absolutely no flavor, and I'm honestly not sure why they bothered serving it. I wish I had taken a picture of the plate because the presentation was just as unimpressive as the meal. That said, I was not expecting anything fancy, so perhaps I should not have expected much more. The atmosphere was typical for this type of restaurant--casual, basic, and nothing fancy. It appeared clean enough and was generally what you would expect from a place like this. Overall, the excellent service from A.K. was the highlight of the visit, but the food was not good enough for me to return.

Food and drinks were spectacular, and our waiter was very prompt and polite. Best date night place in Corpus Christi if you like oysters, drinks, and a good atmosphere!

    We've eaten at Water Street for over 30 years... there is a great new menu, but for old timers like…read moreme, you can go in and order the traditional foods like Picayune, shrimp, rice pilaf, and the amazing walnut salad dressing. It is spot on and as delicious as it was 30 years ago... That recipe never gets old! The service was amazing... Our server treated us like we were regulars, and the restaurant is just fun and beautiful. The manager saw what we had ordered and smiled ear to ear, we stopped to ask us if everything was good and we said it was fabulous! I don't think he was born when we first started ordering this dish and I'm not so sure if the chefs were either, but they did a great job! Returning to this review to update one year later. I've been to Waterstreet several times since. Always consistent, fresh, delicious. Once in a while the hostess is a bit inconsiderate, but when we return next time, they're gone... so management addresses service issues quickly.
