Better choice than over denny's & i love dennys! but to support local businesses, this is it

    Parking in the back, as there's not much up front. Finally made it over here, camping at Lake Corpus Christi State Park. And omg, I'm so glad we did! Just walking in the back door you can tell this is going to be a great meal- the smells wafting around are savory and sweet and the funky 70s music playing along with the diner decor lets you know you are in the right spot! We were seated right away, social distancing and masks are definitely being observed. Two waitress dropped by within moments of sitting down to let take our drink outset's, both let us know they were famous for the waffles and hamburgers. We were all about ordering the waffle until we overheard another waitress talk about the cinnamon roll. Game. On. Um. The cinnamon roll just got dropped off. Oh. My. Word. It's as big as my face y'all. And dripping in buttery frosted goodness. The honey butter on top is unbelievable. I should just stop here. My mouth is in heaven. I'm so glad we made the trip across to this little dive! Hubby had the Monte Carlo omelet (no toast it has browns) and I did the fungi burger (bun less ) and upgraded to onion rings. We're trying to cut carbs. (Don't look at me for the cinnamon bun, we're _trying_ I said. And it was worth every bite!) The onion rings are top notch- breading is delicious and they serving size is great. Hubby's inlet is nearly two inches thick- and packed with meats. Y'all. Come here. Eat good food. Die happy with the cinnamon roll. And come back for more. We sure will!

    Awesome!!!

    Me and my little sister wanted to go and grab some lunch on a rainy day and decided to try this place out that had decent reviews, Once we arrived to Sandi's Diner we noticed there was 3 street parking spots in the front (which is where we parked) and more parking in the back. The business had an old rockabilly them from the outside and the inside was even more vibrant! When we walked inside Sandi's we were quickly greeted and asked to sit anywhere. They had awesome old memorabilia on the walls and throughout the restaurant. Our waitress was very nice and explained the menu and the cleanliness of the business was very clean. Me and my sister decided to order omelette's with drinks and a side of Parmesan wings. Once we received our food it was delicious and was perfect temperature. I would highly recommend this place for either breakfast or lunch! Thank you Sandi's Diner!

    Great waffle and perfectly cooked scrambled eggs! Light and fluffy. Several burgers and sandwiches to choose from too.

    Slow service, food wasn't good at all. Ambiance was 70s theme. I had the pancakes, eggs, sausage & bacon. It wasn't good.

    Andy's Country Kitchen - Seafood platter and country fried fresh water catfish

    Had such a wonderful experience at Andy's Country Kitchen -- absolutely worth every bit of the…read morewait! Food, service, and ambience -- everything was just perfect. The place has a sweet, cozy, and comfortable vibe that instantly makes you feel at home. We tried the seafood platter, and it was incredible -- everything tasted so fresh, perfectly cooked, and full of flavor. The sides really elevated the meal, especially the charro beans, which are a must-have with it. Country fried fresh water Catfish was just as good -- juicy, well-seasoned, and super satisfying. One of the sweetest touches was the complimentary blueberry muffins while waiting -- soft, fluffy, and honestly the perfect start before the meal. And the desserts... WOW. The cheesecake slice and carrot cake were both absolutely mouthwatering -- rich, moist, and the perfect way to end the meal. The service made the experience even better -- our server Anna was incredibly sweet, attentive, and welcoming. Just a heads-up: this place is popular for a reason, so expect a 20-30 minute wait, but it's 100% worth it. Plan ahead and go -- you won't regret it! Highly recommend if you're in Corpus Christi!

    What a great place for breakfast. It was busy but the service was great. First drink order- coffee…read more- came fast. Next the hot blueberry muffins. Then the menu, what to order. It all looked so good. My husband and I decided on the Mexican breakfast with 2 cheese con carne enchiladas, 2 over easy eggs, refried beans, flour tortillas and hash brown. The salsa had to be homemade, it was so good. It was the best part of our quick vacation. Also was really impressed by the wait staff. I counted 8 plates being hand delivered at the same time! Wow, impressive!

    First day of Corpus vacation. I was walking along the little touristy area just north of the USS…read moreLexington. I Yelp'ed on the iPhone; I first found a cajun restaurant that seemed well recommended (the others around it were not), but could not find the location of it. So Plan B, found Dot'z and the exterior looked cute like a 50's dinerish place on the beach. Ordering was a little tricky, it's up on the wall but you can combine things you see on the wall. Wait staff was alright, not overly eager to serve, but not rude or disrespectful. You order and it takes maybe 5-10 mins to get a meal out. The ice cream also looked good, but did not sample any on this go around. I went with the chicken sandwich to try and stay a little healthy in this haven of beach food. Came very plain jane. I don't recall if it had mushrooms on it or not, but I distinctly remember thinking I paid for this?!? It had the appearance of fast food burger joint, not trendy little place on the beach. They have small inside seating but if a few folks are there, they have a covered patio area that is a good break from the sun. No fans or ventialtion that I recall outside. They also have a nice playground right outside if you need to occupy the kids in a safe place while you eat. Overall, I wanted to like the charm of the place, but could just not get into it. Thus, 3 stars.

    Came for a day trip to the beach and brought along our dogs. We were anxious to find a restaurant…read morethat accepted animals. Dotz is one of those places. We were able to sit outside on their patio with our dogs and enjoy a good hot dog. The food experience isn't something to get excited about, but we were really happy they were accommodating to us since we brought our pets. The atmosphere is fun and the hot dogs are good. Great place to come if you have a large family!
