But the surprise that really made our visit special was the advice and interaction of the sommelier, Cisco! As a wine educator, I rarely encounter restaurant wine stewards who have extensive knowledge AND spend the time with the table to ensure the right pairings are chosen. Cisco nailed it! Finally, the service was perfect - our waitress was professional, very friendly and was always there when needed yet was never obtrusive. Fork & Vines is a real gem and we will be back every time we visit Corpus Christi.

We got the calamari and fried mozarella caprese from the happy hour menu. I didn't get to try the fried moz caprese, but the calamari was good. It was just slightly overcooked but otherwise had good flavor and the aioli was a good pairing. My fettuccine was a little bland but the shrimp was heavily seasoned and added to the dish. The short rib ravioli was tender and flavorful. Our server was knowledgable and helpful! He was super nice and provided great service.

You can tell that the chef(s) pour their heart into eat dish prepared. My mother in law and I both ordered salads and my wife ordered the snapper tacos and we all ate every single bite! The ambiance is great for a casual family meal and there is also a bar area as well. My only suggestion is for the restaurant to please oh please put a bit into upgrading the bathrooms. It really is a disservice to the customers and experience when some of the stalls don't close and the toilets are literally falling apart and closed with plastic instead of the normal parts they should be. However, we will be back and recommend it to others for a great casual meal with excellent food, good service and reasonable prices!

The specialty meals come with salad or soup. I got the crab potato bisque. It was very tasty. My entree was Drum Parmesan.

I tasted his and it was very good as well. It had a Cajun vibe, but not too spicy. It came with 3 shrimp, rice pilaf and asparagus. He had to take part of his home because we wanted to try their bread pudding with cinnamon and Caramel with a scoop of cream ice cream. I needed to walk the block after all that. It was all so delightful. I highly recommend this restaurant.

He is usually a pretty good judge of restaurants, so I trusted his recommendation. Unfortunately, that turned out to be a mistake. Our server, A.K.--whom my dad has affectionately called "A.K. 47" for years--was wonderful. She was friendly, attentive, and did an excellent job. If you decide to visit, I would highly recommend asking to sit in her section. I ordered the oyster and shrimp plate, and unfortunately, it was disappointing. The shrimp were acceptable, although I have certainly had better. The oysters, however, were gritty with dirt and did not appear to have been properly cleaned before being fried. Both the shrimp and oysters were coated in a flour-and-cornmeal batter. It was fine, but nothing memorable. The coleslaw had absolutely no flavor, and I'm honestly not sure why they bothered serving it. I wish I had taken a picture of the plate because the presentation was just as unimpressive as the meal. That said, I was not expecting anything fancy, so perhaps I should not have expected much more. The atmosphere was typical for this type of restaurant--casual, basic, and nothing fancy. It appeared clean enough and was generally what you would expect from a place like this. Overall, the excellent service from A.K. was the highlight of the visit, but the food was not good enough for me to return.

The place on the outside is nothing to talk about. It gets packed good luck finding a spot. The place is so small it's ridiculous cramped inside.

It's chicharrón style every other place I have gone gives you guacamole, I had to order it seperately. My cocktail Vuelve ala Vida (The sauce was a watered down unflavored mess) the Shrimp were really fresh, but the cocktail sauce was horrible. The kiddos had Alfredo shrimp pasta they said it was good, the wife said her dish was OK some pulpo fish ala diabla. The small appetizer tostadas with 2 tiny salsas is meh, but the ceviche was tasteless. (If you can find a Peruvian restaurant order ceviche there) you eyes and mouth will be opened. Service was fast, and personally, they do this to move people out quick, because it's a very small place, and the quality of food suffers. For me it's a SOLID 3

We felt like we were being profiled. When we ordered a shot, our bartender questioned us not once, but twice. First, she asked if we were sure that was what we wanted. After we confirmed, she brought up the price and again asked if we were really sure that was the drink we wanted. It came across as if she assumed we couldn't afford it or didn't know what we were ordering. There was no reason to question our order, and it made us feel uncomfortable and unwelcome. We came to enjoy a nice meal, not to feel judged. It's disappointing because the food was excellent, but customer service is just as important. I hope management addresses this so other guests don't have a similar experience.
