The shrimp ceviche was some of the best I've ever had, the steak crostini bites were amazing (chimichurri to die for!) and the charcuterie/cheese board was phenomenal. Chef Keli made a special whipped lavender honey chèvre that I'll be dreaming of.

A wonderful addition to fine dining in Corpus. We just attended Chef Michael Smith's seven course…read moreGame Dinner with locally sourced game and fish and it was one of our most enjoyable dinners in years. We were greeted with a complimentary champagne glass before being taken to our table, they were refilled before Chef Michael introduced the first course of buttermilk fried quail knots with red eye gravy, followed by pan seared duck with honey and cherry bigarade and then Clearwater Farms baked oysters with applewood smoked bacon with black garlic and Chipotle aioli. They were really excellent, and the farm owner who was attendingb the dinner also offer us additional tastings of fresh ones -briny and sweet they were the best cultured oysters we have tried in the Coastal Bend. A raspberry sorbet with mint cleared our palates before being presented with rabbit fricassee wild mushrooms and sherry cream sauce, followed by frenched boar chops with whole grain mustard and toasted pecans, and that was followed by S. Texas Nilgai antelope with truffle pom puree and blackberry demiglaze. The final touch was a delicious desert of white pudding and berries with chocolate caramel sauce. All the courses were paired with well chosen wine selections -with complimentary refills- and introduced by the Chef. They were all delicious and of very generous size (first time we have taken food home from a tasting menu). The service, headed by manager Jessica Chappell Smith was excellent. We cannot recommend enough Ruby Ladle and it should be tried by anybody who enjoys fine dining at very reasonable prices.

Simply Amazing -- A True Corpus Christi Gem…read more This place is simply incredible. It's a small, family-owned restaurant run by a husband-and-wife team. The husband is an internationally trained chef specializing in French and Cajun cuisine, and his talent shows in every dish. His wife, Jessica, runs the front of house, and she is phenomenal -- warm, inviting, attentive, and incredibly knowledgeable about the Corpus Christi area. The ambiance is intimate and stylish: dim lighting, smooth soul and street-jazz playing softly in the background, and an overall vibe that makes it perfect for date night, a late dinner, or anyone looking for a refined dining experience without the stuffy formality. The food is top-tier. I started with the jumbo crab cake, and it was absolutely to die for -- no filler, just fresh, flavorful crab cooked perfectly. For my entrée, I had the salmon served with wild rice and green beans. Everything was seasoned spot-on, cooked to perfection, and tasted incredibly fresh. I finished with the key lime pie, and honestly, it's one of the best I've had in years. Dense, tart, sweet, and done exactly the right way. Pricing is very fair for the quality -- my full meal, including tip, was around $100, and the average guest will probably spend $65-$75 per person. Service is top-notch, the setting is intimate, and the food hits every note. If you're looking for an elevated dining experience in Corpus Christi that's both cozy and memorable, this is the place. Highly recommended.
