Surfing Crab

2nd location in Corpus Christi that I have been to. WOW, AWESOME AS WELL! Food was fresh and hit. The service was great. The staff were friendly. We were sat in under 5 minutes and the atmosphere was legit.

Me and the wife came here to try out this seafood restaurant since we never really get seafood. The restaurant atmosphere was great, nice and cozy for a good date night! I ordered a half a dozen oysters on the half shell as an appetizer. I ate the most of it, the wife only had two. The oysters were pretty good! Then the wife and I had half a pound of shrimp, half a pound of sausage, half a pound of crawfish, and a whole pound of snow crab legs in some Cajun seasoning. That was really good. We both loved the friendly service, and we both loved the food. A little on the pricey side I must admit. We paid nearly $100 for everything. However, we had a good time together. 5/5 stars from the both of us!

The staff is always so welcoming and nice. The food is fantastic and I absolutely love that they give me a dip cup!

Living the island life means seafood is always within reach—and for a quick and satisfying seafood fix, Surfing Crab definitely delivers. We went for a hearty combo of Snow Crab Legs, Manila Clams, shrimp, and calamari, all served with a side of potatoes and corn cobs. The crab legs were the undeniable highlight—sumptuous, meaty, and flavorful. Whether dipped in their signature Surfing Sauce or the classic garlic butter and lemon, each bite was a burst of savory seafood goodness. The shrimp, though headless, had surprisingly soft shells, making them easy to enjoy. Both the clams and calamari were cooked just right—tender and flavorful without being overdone. Add to that the casual, nautical “galley” vibes of the restaurant, and you’ve got a seafood experience that truly captures the ess

I really love this place and the biggest surprise was the chicken fried steak! One of the best I've ever had. The fried shrimp and fried oysters were also great. Service was wonderful drinks were great atmosphere was amazing. I will definitely go back and recommend it to my friends.
