    Extremely cold beer, great AC, and just great atmosphere. It's a dive bar but the best on the Island. Great summer experience.

The boudin eggrolls with remoulade a yum yum tuna were delicious starters. The shrimp bisque was super creamy and rich. OG New Orleans oysters were packed with garlic and flavor. And the wedge salad was great. We will definitely return.

    We chose Hometown Seafood on the 2nd night cuz the menu had the most appealing stuff. However, the…read morehanded us plastic reusable menus that were dirty. I got some weird purple stuff on my hand and what looked like a booger on the other side - clean the menus! Check them! Thats the first impression!!! My husband wanted the black drum but they were out sadly. I ordered the crab cake Mahi. I inquired rather it was stuffed with the crab cake or there was just one of each... waitress i formed me the crab cake covers the too of the fish like a crust. Unfortunately, im lactose intolerant so I can do cream base sauces which is all it seems like anyone has, so I just had them put lemon pepper butter on the pasta. It was good, the fish could've been seasoned better, without the crab cake there wasn't much there. Presentation needs some work. My hubby settled for the Po'Boy, ps the french fries are really good!!! Battered kind! We also got calamari as an appetizer, it was good rings but needed a lemon wedge & more sauce. I drank a Cocomo - just tasted like coconut - one and done. I think the wait time (15min) for waitress to bring us a box for my son and the check after she had walked by like 3x and not made eye contact or noticed we were empty played and pushed everything aside. I finally got up and asked the hostess for the check since we were sitting near the door. She did have several tables spread our all over the restaurant, so she was busy, but if you'll prioritize those that are done, it keeps your tip high, and then that table can be turned over. There are plenty of screens with college football and baseball on them on a Saturday night. Steady flow of people in and out, but not a wait. Wish they had legit outdoor dining because the weather and breeze was nice out. It's located in a shipping center, so there's plenty of parking, but not really a view, easy to access if ur headed off the island to the bridge, otherwise traffic can be a mess for a minute.

    Let me start with something positive. Our server was very sweet and friendly…read more The silverware was not clean, and had to be replaced. The steak knife was so dull; all it did was tear the meat. My husband's 14 ounce ribeye steak included 5 ounces of fat. My coconut shrimp was burnt. I ate some of it but mentioned it to the server who said she would report it to the kitchen. I didn't expect a refund or replacement because I had eaten my fill, but a visit from the manager would have been nice. We tipped our server well, but we will not be returning.

    We set on the patio, it was a pretty quiet evening but so nice outside in October. They have plenty…read moreof high top picnic tables outside, inside is a little smaller (we've set inside years ago). Our waitress and service was great. The coconut shrimp was definitely freshly battered, they are Large shrimp too! The coconut sauce was good. It came with wild rice & the "seasonal vegetable" was green beans. All cooked well. We ordered calamari to start - its not the tentacle rings your used to, but thick strips, i didnt care for that - lil too much meat inside so it was a texture thing for me. But the batter and chili sauce was good. I like the location cuz it's close to the beaches, usually less packed than restaurants by the bridge. They have a band by the outside bar sometimes. Plenty of waiting area. Has its own parking lot. Literally right of padre island dr.
