Butter Churn If…read moreyou're anywhere near Aransas Pass and you haven't eaten at Butter Churn, you're flat-out missing out. From the moment you walk in, you can feel it -- this isn't some corporate chain going through the motions. This place is dialed in. It is probably one of the most put-together restaurants I've ever had the privilege of visiting. Every detail feels intentional. Clean lines, modern touches, spotless floors, organized buffet, upbeat energy -- they hit every mark. The décor has personality without being overdone. It feels like a true family restaurant -- warm, authentic, and welcoming -- but with a level of polish most places never achieve. The service? Exceptional. Real smiles. Real hospitality. You're not just another table. You feel seen and taken care of. Now let's talk about the brisket. Unbelievable. I had to ask how they were doing it, and Mark was more than happy to walk me through his process. When brisket is smoked low and slow -- and they smoke theirs for 20 hours -- here's what happens: * The visible fat cap mostly renders down. * The intramuscular fat melts. * Collagen breaks down into gelatin. * The melted fat soaks deep into the meat fibers. So by the time it hits your plate? You don't see fat. You taste rendered fat and gelatin inside the meat. For $14 all-you-can-eat lunch, I kept waiting for the catch. There isn't one. I probably ate close to a pound and a half of brisket myself and still wanted more. Tender, perfectly seasoned, smoky without being overpowering -- the kind of brisket that makes you stop mid-bite and just nod your head because you know you found something special. You walk out wondering how they're not charging double. Everything about this place reflects pride -- pride in the food, pride in the service, pride in the entire experience. It's consistent. It's clean. It's efficient. And that kind of consistency is rare. This is only my second five-star rating ever. That's how serious I am about it. I apologize for not getting a picture of the brisket, I got too carried away with eating it. I live in Corpus Christi, and honestly, that's probably a good thing. If I lived any closer, I'd be there every single day. If you want authentic, high-quality food served by people who genuinely care about what they're doing -- Butter Churn is it. Five stars. No hesitation.

We chose Water Street to cater our wedding a few years ago and there was very little they did…read moreright. Firstly, food was served before anyone arrived and was cold by the time our guests began to eat. They were suppose to bring 2 kegs of beer to the event, however they "couldn't open them" so they bought bottled beer instead. This would have been fine if they bough the equivalent of 2 kegs, but they didn't do beer was in short supply. We had the venue until midnight and they began pulling the plug at 11:15 because clearly they were running the show and not the venue. It just seemed like the person in charge had a hot date that night and was trying to get out of there. Had I know we were inconveniencing them, I would have chosen anyone else... like McDonalds. Unprofessional, overpriced and shambolic.

This is a review and evaluation of the catering service provided by Christi May 2016 for a catered…read morebachelorette party in Rockport, TX. Overall, Christi was enthusiastic, but provided a service far below expectations. This is honest feedback I will go through each event and expectation individually. The agreed upon service was full service catering from 7-9pm with a menu agreed upon by both parties. Short Summary - Christi showed up over an hour late with notice only after the event should have started, needing help with set up and clean up, we did not receive 2/3 of the agreed upon menu (some things broke/spilled in transit, some were forgotten, some not even attempted, the carpet needed to be cleaned after chicken juice was spilled from front door to kitchen on white carpet, untimely disruption of the event during food preparation to ask opinions. Dinner served 2.5 hrs late. Cookies stained mouth black, "Specialty drinks" unable to be consumed by most due to taste. All the unopened left over food and drinks were taken home by the caterer. Christi was open to receiving feedback. We agreed on a refund, and less than 1/4 of that refund was paid after an extended amount of time. I do not recommend her for any event. Menu Summary - Unsatisfied with 6 out of 9 menu items; 4 of 9 menu items were not served at the event, 2 of 9 items were completely inedible (candy and martinis); 1 food item left an undesirable effect (cookies staining mouth black) The purpose of hiring a professional catering service is to free myself and my guests from food preparation and cleanup of dinner to be served at an agreed upon time. We helped to unload the car (we volunteered to do this to help speed up service since you were running over an hour late), we were free from helping to prepare, then we helped with clean up so we could get to our next event since the catering service ended an hour and a half after expected time. Several other areas of dissatisfaction is that during our gift shower: I. She tried to get my attention while the bride was opening gifts. The part that upset me about this was that she tried to call me to the kitchen while the bride was opening my gift. This took away from my moment with the bride, and left the bride feeling uncomfortable and interrupted. I felt that we were rushed to eat, and put onto the food's schedule instead of the food being on our schedule due to the tardiness of the beginning of the service. II. The container with the chicken was leaking, and left a stain of flavored chicken juice on the carpet from the entry of the house, up the stairs, and partially to the kitchen. Now we are left to not only assist in kitchen clean up, but now we need to have the carpets cleaned due to the orange drip trail left by you, the caterer. III. The leftovers purchased for our party with our money were not left for us. While the opened leftovers remained in our possession, a handle of rum and the remaining bags of unopened chips were not found after she had left. It is my understanding that these things were purchased with the money given to her before the party and therefore should have remained in our possession even if they were not opened at the party. Save yourself stress and find another caterer!
