Food is okay but the price is just ridiculous and everything is a la carte. We spent over $200 for a party of 4. More

Great food, kind of pricey! The appetizers were very good. Everything is a la carte which adds up quickly. The view is the best in Corpus Christi. More

Mostly good. My wifes' steak wasn't done quite right and we didn't like the au gratin potatoes but overall it was nice. Note that the place has stairs! My mother in law had to take a service elevator to get to the table as there were too many stairs for her. More

This is fabulous. If you want to just have a drink and a great crab fondue, you can do that or you can be treated like kings and queens and eat a delicious meal there. The steaks melt in your mouth. I have never had better beef. Very romantic. Loved the views of the bay and city. More

The food is excellent, and the view of Corpus Christi Bay is so beautiful. But it is pricey. More

This is one of the highest scale restaurants in Corpus Christi, if not the highest. The food is fantastic, starting with their appetizers all the way to their desserts. Their wine list is very varied. Their quail leg appetizer is to die for, not to mention their carnitas. Their bread...wow, I am a bread addict, it is too good to... More

The steak was excellent, the view overlooking the bay and downtown from the 20th floor was nice. Otherwise, mediocre at best. If this same experience was had at Chili's or Olive Garden it would have been superb. But for a fine dining restaurant that charges $50+ for an a la carte entree it was just ok. The hostess seemed interrupted... More

My wife, two young sons and myself enjoyed a terrific meal, excellent service, and a commanding Corpus Christi view. Highly recommend seating reservations. Serving staff was young, but very accommodating to family. There is a chidrens menu; however our sons eat as adults. Three adult meals, steamed vegetable side, 1/2-bottle wine, and two desserts cost $177 (without gratuity). All dishes... More

The Republic of Texas (ROT) is one of the top restaurants in Corpus Christi. Being on the 20th floor of the Omni Hotel, it has a commanding view of the city and harbor. Try to go before sunset to take in the view, then linger through the evening to catch the lights. The restaurant has excellent food, focusing on steaks... More
