    Great bar. Great location. Great people. If you want an authentic Corpus Christi beach bar, this is the place.

    For a long time, it was frustrating to travel to other cities, visit bars and live music venues…read morewith real personality, and then come back to Corpus feeling like we didn't have anything similar. House of Rock changed that when it opened. It's been fun to watch it grow from a small local music venue into one of the biggest parts of Corpus Christi's live music scene. Over the years they've expanded beyond just the bar and venue, and the food has become part of the draw as well. I've been to several shows here and they've always been a good experience. The sound is solid, the staff is friendly and helpful, and the atmosphere feels like a real music venue instead of just another bar. Even on nights when you're not there for a concert, it's a great place to grab a drink, hang out, and listen to good rock music on the jukebox. I've only had the pizza a few times, but it's been excellent every time. The crust tastes fresh and doesn't have that frozen, premade dough texture that so many places serve. I love this place. Corpus is better because it's here, and I hope it continues to be part of the city's music scene for many years to come.

    Came for disco night so no food to be reviewed. But the space is nice for a more dive bar style,…read moreit's definitely convenient if you have a couple drinks and then pop into the restaurant to grab a bite rather than needing to go elsewhere to find food. Music was fun and the bar staff were nice, they started with only 2 bartenders so there was a backlog for a bit but they added another and it helped get things moving. Bathrooms were super clean on the women's side which is rare and so nice to see. Over all a great night here

    After reading some of the older reviews, I was honestly a little hesitant but I'm so glad we gave…read morethis place a chance because our experience was completely different We visited during one of the busiest weekends of the year (4th of July), and Ashley was fantastic. She was friendly, attentive, and checked on us often despite how busy the restaurant was getting. The drinks were delicious (Thanks Ashley!) ! I highly recommend the Blue Hawaiian and the Watermelon Crush. For appetizers, we ordered the Shrimp Diablo (jalapeño poppers), shrimp cocktail, chips, and guacamole ... Everything tasted fresh and flavorful with zero complaints. (Re: the previous tortilla chip complaints; the chips had a great crunch and held up well with the fresh homemade guacamole.) For our entree, we shared the Molcajete Parrillada with fajita beef, chicken, shrimp, and sausage. Every protein was seasoned well and cooked perfectly. Even the chicken, which is often overlooked at many restaurants, was moist, tender, and full of flavor. If you're scrolling through old reviews, don't let them discourage you from trying this place. Based on our visit, they seem to have made improvements. Maybe new management? The restaurant has a nice beachfront dining if you arrive early enough during holidays . Cute spot, it has a up and downstairs depends on your vibe preference. One helpful tip: there is clear signage regarding the paid parking. The parking fees are separate and are not associated with the restaurant, so be sure to read the signs before parking. We'll definitely be back!

    Once again I took on a restaurant with mixed and not so good reviews, and once again I am here to…read moredisprove the "critics" that have deemed this establishment a 2.1 star. After a day full of sun, sand, and cheap domestic beer we decided to give this a try as it is very convenient and right at the heart of North Beach with direct access from the beach or the road. We sat outside as the weather was absolutely lovely and found ourselves by their stage, there was live music and though I was on the fence about it at first I ended up coming around. We were sat instantly after entering and our waitress was very timely, we decided to graduate from cheap beers to the margaritas. Though they were not served in a glass they still came out just fine, they were packed full of flavor and were very enjoyable. The rims were sugared perfectly and the drinks stayed frozen almost the entire meal. For the appetizer there were not many options that appealed to my palate at the time, however being the spirit of Tex-Mex ultimately it would've been a sin to not get the chips and queso. It came out within minutes and though it was your average restaurant queso it still served as a good appetizer and prequel to what was waiting for us. Personally I cannot understand why someone would come to an establishment 40 feet from the water and not get seafood, but nonetheless we decided on the Big Papi Seafood Boil. We were not disappointed. For perspective we had not eaten all day and still had leftovers! The boil is a combination of 2 halves of crab legs, 2lbs of crawfish, and 1lb of shrimp, along with 4 sections of corn and 4 potatoes. It is served with 2 cups of melted butter and a Cajun seasoning. The seafood boil really made this place come to life. Between being packed full of flavor, beautifully tender meat, delicious butter for dipping, and the option for extra Cajun seasoning it truly was worth every penny spent. The variety is perfect it could've used a little more crab but the sheer number of crawfish and shrimp evened it out. In summary I would recommend Fajitaville, the appetizers are mediocre, the drinks are well priced and delicious, but the seafood boil. The seafood boil is a must try.
