Emloyes standing around using cell phones. Seemed there wasnt any suoervision. I asked for 2 planks of fish and got 2 thin squares osf something. It was cold so I didnt eat it. I didnt bother saying anything to anybody as they all seemed to be of no management capability. What was bad a customer came in after me and he had 2 big planks of fish. It was so bad I called the health department as the food was not being kept at ideal temperatures.The chain is combo'd with KFC.
9. Firehouse Subs
Reviewed By inglesidejohn
I would have probably gone 5 stars, the Italian sub was very tasty, and filling, but the soda machine puts out horrible tasting drinks. If I go back Iâll have to take my own drink from home. The machine is an automated Coke dispenser and the coke tasted like it had one of the other 100 some-odd flavors mixed in. I tried running it a few seconds but the coke still didnât taste like coke. My daughter got what was supposed to be root beer and same thing. That machine ruined the meal. This is not my first experience with these and other restaurants have gotten rid of the machines shortly after installing then in favor of the original fountain drink dispensers. Hopefully Firehouse Subs will do the same and send that nasty thing back where it came from!We are deeply sorry to hear that your recent visit resulted in a dis-satisfactory experience.

8. Bloom City Coffee
Reviewed By kdk1965
We stopped in for a couple of Americanos and ended up sharing the breakfast panini. Service was friendly and prompt, and the music enhanced the coffee shop vibe. The drive through was fairly busy, but we found this to be a nice place to enjoy not only coffee, but also people watch and relaxâfar more so than our experience at the chain coffee place we tried the day before.
7. Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen
Reviewed By Erma W
I visited Popeyes restaurant on Greenwood drive in Corpus Christi Tx on Saturday July 21-2012. As I pulled into the parking lot there was a lady and girl loading their car with bags of items just purchased. I stopped to joke with them about when dinner was served. The adult relayed to me that she was from down in the Rio Grande Valley. She said there is no Popeyes in the area she's from,so she and her daughter were making a round trip for a total of four hours drive to get Popeyes chicken for dinner that day! This is no Joke! This story should tell you how good Popeyes is. And they need to open more stores in the valley. My family and I aslo enjoy popeyes' food! prices are good...employees are helpful and personable.

IHOP is a favorite for great pancakes and eggs. This one definitely did not meet up to their standards. My eggs were ordered sunny side up, they were over cooked and edges were burnt. Pancakes were googy and tasted terrible. There were several families dining with very loud and rully kids and the waitress appeared to be distraught and totally attentive to my complaint. We paid the check and left without eating. Never dine here AGAIN!

With 76 entrees and salads, Texas A1 Steak and Seafood is sure to have what you crave. Having 2 locations serving Corpus Christi and Portland, a scrumptious meal is never far away.
Reviewed By pnkgirl27
The portions were huge but everything was tasteless. The fish was breaded in cornmeal and nothing else. Same with the shrimp, tasteless. The stuffed crab had excellent flavor and was probably the best part of the meal. They give an abundance of fries to fill you up so it seems like you are getting your moneys worth. We went at lunchtime on a Friday and it was busy with locals and construction workers. With that said, we had THE worst table in the place. Don't be seated by the pie display unless you want hundreds of people shoving themselves past you coming/going and the servers carrying food trays above your head. I couldn't even move my elbow to eat without it jabbing a person passing by!

My wife and I and my mother had dinner at this restaurant in Sept 2019. There is plenty of off road parking. The restaurant is a large two storied boat parked on the water in one of the boat marinas. Excellent views of the water and boats parked in the marina. Elegant restaurant. The wait staff was very friendly and attentive. The menu was largely made up of seafood but they do have other things like beef steak. My wife and mother had the blackened red snapper and i had the ribeye steak. Both dishes were excellent and with large portions. The prices were a bit high, mid $30s for each dish but sometimes you get what you pay for.
