It is an intimate space, rectangular, with about 10 or so small tables and room for about 10 at the bar. Along with the laid back crowd, allowing you to hear the people you're drinking with, this place won me over big on its vibe. But we don't visit bars just for the vibe and the company, we go for some drinks. They have a small list of signature cocktails, but of course, you can ask for what you want. I got the Blueberry Pomegranate Martini. The liqueur in it was really smooth and tasty. For its simplicity it was also adorned with actual blueberries. Sounds good so far, so why the lack of the fifth star? The service was very friendly and professional but drinks were churning out slow, despite the numerous bartenders at the moment. After a few drinks we were attended by a different bartender. Johnny personally introduced himself prior to grabbing our order. He made it a point to provide attentive service and recommend drinks. He was very knowledgeable and familiar with the menu. Great guy! Overall, intimate cozy space, striving for a classy look, great tasting drinks, best for couples, and average priced drinks. I am looking forward to going back, but might go on a weekend. I could see this being a go-to spot for people who live nearby and like higher end cocktails.

My partner loves whiskey so when I saw this place while planning for our trip to Corpus Christi, I…read moreknew we had to check it out. We arrived after having had dinner and despite it being busy (it was a Friday night), we were seated quickly. Its got an old-timey vibe which is enhanced by the decor they use and the fact they were playing a black and white film on the projector. The bar area itself is gorgeous and displays what looks like hundreds of bottles of whiskey. We tried their sazarac and the Anastasia Grey. While I love anything earl grey, I wasnt the biggest fan of the charcoal element but thats a personal preference. It was rather busy so it took some time to get a hold of our server but understandable considering he also had other tables to focus on!

I have a new go-to spot when Im visiting Corpus and it's Neuces Whiskey Library!…read more I stopped in recently thanks to the recommendation of a local friend that knows I'm a whiskey lover. From the moment I walked in I fell in love with this space. From the dim lighting, to the elegant ambiance, to the cozy booth, and woodpaneled bar - I was immediately obsessed. Everything I tried here was absolutely delicious both from the food menu and the drink menu. I did a tasting flight (highly recommend) and sampled a few house cocktails. Neither approach will do you wrong and I recommend doing both if you have the time. For food we went with the : -sliders -charcuterie board - gnocchi -truffle fries And you can't go wrong with any of these. The sliders and charcuterie were the top two table favorites (although we may have been fighting over the last few truffle fries as well) Add this place to your list if you're in the Corpus area!

I also have to give a shoutout to Gabe, Hannah, and Morgan--they're my favorite bartenders and always make the experience even better. And Marc absolutely kills it in the kitchen.

We came in about an hour before closing so the restaurant was nearly empty, but our waiter served us graciously and didn't miss a beat on amazing service. We had the calmari, kats meow (shrimp appetizer), and a steak with Mac n cheese and potatoes. All were amazing. I also had a caesar salad that paired well with the shrimp accompaniment that we ordered with the steak. Only watch out, is it was a little dark in the restaurant to me, but nothing unbearable. I would definitely recommend and whenever I'm back in Corpus I will return.

Here's my Clint Eastwood review, The Good, The Bad, and The Disappointing…read more The Good Location, not on SPID and all that congestion. Located on Spohn right off of S Staples, really nice location. This place is huge, with a giant bar, where we like to sit and dine, with an adjacent raw/Sushi bar, very nice. The bar offers a huge selection of adult beverage makings. We were celebrating our 39th anniversary, so a restaurant of this caliber is certainly appropriate. The drinks, a Tanqueray Martini with an Orange twist for her and a Manhattan straight up with four roses bourbon for me, were perfectly sized and delicious. The restaurant boasts a large freestanding humidor with a nice selection of cigars. I also noticed a wall of personal humidor lockers for customers to keep their personal cigars available. This all suggested a cigar room, but I never saw it. The wait staff, were mostly attentive. Instead of depending on your bartenders to deliver food, I'm more accustomed to restaurants, of this caliber, to have a dedicated wait staff for bar dining patrons. Especially considering they have a large number of high top tables for dining in the bar. Friday nights, like when we were there, get pretty hectic for the bartenders. For our second drink the bartender made mistakes on both our drinks, my wife's Martini came with Olives,(I liked them) instead of the twist of orange. My Manhattan came with her twist of orange instead of the usual Luxardo cherry. Perhaps if the bartenders just bartended they wouldn't make simple mistakes. ‍ . They were very nice and brought me a shot glass with several Luxardo cherries in it. Thank you Ladies! The food. We started with appetizers. My wife got their escargot that were traditionally prepared in an escargot serving dish rich with butter, garlic and a hint of citrus. They were delicious, albeit small. My wife was happy with them. I got their Crispy Calamari Atop Stir Fried Carrots, Green Onions & Cashews with a Kung Pao Sauce. This dish, for us, was the hit of the night. The calamari, instead of the rings so commonly served, were calamari strips. They were perfectly fried and the combination of the calamari, the vegetables and that kung pao sauce was absolutely mouth watering. If you like calamari I highly recommend this dish. You won't be disappointed. Entrees. My wife got their escargot Greek style rack of Lamb with spinach. The Lamb was perfectly seasoned and served medium-rare. It was absolutely delicious. If you like Lamb this is a great dish, oh and the chops were huge! The Bad. Nothing to see here. The Disappointing. I ordered the USDA Prime Ribeye with Citrus-Braised Baby Carrots & Whipped Potatoes and a Dijon Herbal Butter. I order my steaks cooked medium-rare "Pittsburgh style". First, everyone knows what a ribeye steak looks like, it has that very distinctive shape, you can't miss it. If what they served me was a ribeye, then I'm the true Bad Bunny! When the entrees were delivered they didn't give us steak knives, we had to ask for them. Now maybe they were that confident in the tenderness of the meat that they didn't feel we needed steak knives. Or maybe, just maybe, they should be tending bar instead of delivering food. Second the menu clearly states USDA Prime Ribeye. I know what that is, and what was served me wasn't that. As I stated I order my steaks "Pittsburg style". What that means is the steak is first cooked to an internal temperature that is 5 to 10° short of medium-rare. The steak is then immersed in either melted butter or tallow and then immediately thrown on a very hot grill. This causes the grill to engulf the steak in flames charring the outside of the steak and raising the internal temperature to medium-rare. I do it all the time on my backyard grill. While my steak did have some charring, it wasn't Pittsburg style. Conclusions. Would we go back? Absolutely if for nothing else to get that crispy calamari. Would I order the steak again? Not without getting some assurances that I get a Rib Eye and they know how to cook it Pittsburg style. I guess, in the end, this has all the potential to be a high-end steakhouse, for our visit I felt they didn't meet that expectation.

My family of 9 decided to give this place a try. We called around 7:00 PM to check the line, and…read morethey told us the wait would be about 30 minutes, which we were totally fine with. We arrived just nine minutes later at 7:09 PM, but the host was missing from the stand for a solid 10 minutes. When she finally showed up, she told us the wait would actually be an hour and a half. We weren't seated until around 8:25 PM, and after ordering, we waited another 15 minutes for our food. Because the restaurant closes at 9:00 PM, we were literally the last people there. ​However, the front-of-house chaos was completely salvaged by the rest of the experience. Our server, Danielle, was amazingly kind, sweet, and incredibly awesome! On top of that, the food was absolutely amazing, tasty, and served piping hot, with 1 of the hurricane combo being really cold. My brother couldn't finish it. And the steak was dry, and needed more flavor. I will say the chicken tenders were ginormous and very juicy. The atmosphere was also great very comforting with nice, beachy vibes. ​The Verdict: A incredibly frustrating wait and a rough start with the host, but Danielle's stellar service and the fantastic food made the night worth it.

When we entered, no one greeted us or explained how ordering worked. We ended up walking outside and finding a table on our own, only to later realize that we were supposed to order at the bar. When I went inside to order, I watched three other women walk in and the two men working immediately greeted them and explained the ordering process to them. I mentioned that no one had done that for my family, and instead of apologizing or acknowledging it, they simply pointed toward the menus. I then asked if they had high chairs. While I was holding my baby, they pointed toward where the high chairs were rather than offering to help me get one. I had to carry the high chair myself while holding my baby. As I was walking out, the employee walking in front of me didn't even stop to hold the door open. Ordering our food was also frustrating. I had six drinks to carry and asked for a drink holder. The bartender responded, "Oh, well, you can come back for it." Not exactly the kind of customer service you expect when someone is already carrying drinks for a family with small children. Then, when our food came out, my husband's patty melt had not been added to the order. When I brought it to their attention, I was told that the receipt showed I hadn't ordered it and that if I wanted one, I would have to go back up and pay for it. At that point, I declined. The biggest issue, however, was the condition of the patio area. We were sitting in the back patio because my 4-year-old was enjoying the play area. While we were there, four large rats ran across the fence line. I have never experienced anything like that at a restaurant. On top of the rats, I personally saw around five large cockroaches running around the tables. Seeing multiple rats and cockroaches around an area where people are eating was extremely disturbing, especially with three young children with us. Overall, between the lack of basic customer service, the problems with our order, and the number of rats and cockroaches we witnessed, this was an experience we will not be repeating. I hope management takes these concerns seriously because the cleanliness and pest situation, in particular, needs immediate attention
