On a recent trip to Corpus Christi and on my way to tour the USS Lexington and the Texas State Aquarium I stopped at Pier 99 for lunch. I chose to sit in the covered patio area which was quite comfortable. I ordered a grilled shrimp dish with a side of cole slaw and Shiner Beer (2). The food was... more

My husband and I were on vacation and looking for some fun things to do and good places to eat. We were actually staying in Port A but we ventured to Corpus to see the USS Lexington. After our morning there, my husband suggested stopping at Pier 99 for lunch since it was right across the street. I am SO... more

Although eated promptly on the patio deck, 1 hour wait between placing order and seeing our meal. Fish, shrimp, oysters and crab were all good quality if you like everything fried. An experience that we will not be doing again. more

We went here two days ago for a mid-afternoon lunch and sat outside on the patio with the ocean breeze blowing on us. If you want to eat inside with the AC, make a reservation. My son-in-law, who had never been to the ocean, got a huge platter with crab legs, smoked sausage, red potatoes and corn on the cob... more

After a visit the Lexington aircraft carrier next door (must see attraction), the family stopped into Pier 99 on the walk to the Texas State Aquarium next door. We were offered a deck table or the last indoor table available. With the Sunday afternoon temperature approaching 96 (that’s really high for C.C.) we decided on the indoor table and the... more

Coming from a former local, I love this place. The shrimp platter is a must. Yeah, it can take a while to get seated at prime time, but what else would you expect at a waterfront restaurant in an area that is flooded with tourists. If you're too uptight to wait a few minutes to be seated then go to... more

The place is filthy, dirty tables, i had to clean it with my baby wipes, they turned black! Restroom - everything i was scared to touch. We're waited for about 30 minutes to get waiter's attention, my sandwich tasted like they dipped it in the water - wet, tasteless.. Great live music though, but that's only one good thing about... more

We were there with a group of 20, and although we called ahead and asked them to arrange seating for us, which they indicated would be no problem at all, once we got to the restaurant, we were told they couldn't seat that large a group inside and we could walk outside and seat ourselves at tables, in whatever manner... more

This is located on the beach and is beautiful. You can choose to sit outside, in an enclosed porch area, or inside the restaurant. The family platter was a huge hit with our family. It was brought out piled high on a huge round platter. Not very nutritious, but definitely delicious! more
