Amazing bar food! The service was super fast, friendly and accommodating. The only thing I should let people know is that they are not kidding when they say they are a Cajun food they are not kidding, they put a good amount of spice to almost everything so if you don't like spicy food or do not have a high tolerance, you should let them know.

Went on a Tuesday night just looking to discover new places in town and eat good. Definitely a dive but that's what we were feeling. The fried shrimp were delicious as well as the sides that came with them. However, the burger my dad ordered was not good. The patty was clearly froze, it had a grainy texture to it, but that wasn't even the worst part: it was a plain burger and had a very weird taste. Almost like blue cheese. He took 2 bites and couldn't finish it.

I visited here since it was one of the highest rated restaurants/bars in all of Corpus. Luckily, it was not too far from my hotel.I looked over the simple menu and saw they have apps, tacos, sandwiches, and seafood. They have a handful of mostly local beers on tap, plus a small cocktail menu. This is a quintessential dive bar.I figured I would go with something safe, plus the cook said their burgers were fresh beef. They don't cook the patty to order, only well done here, but they will ask how you want the fried egg.I chose the bourbon street breakfast burger, since they also indicated the pulled pork was awesome. I also added a boudain link.How was the burger? It was really good, but the patty is pretty small, like 1/4 lb with the pulled pork overwhelming the taste...its a messy burger, which is why they give you a fork. I could also not taste the cranberry chipotle sauce that is supposedly on it. The boudain link didn't taste like a boudain at all. The skin had the crisp and snap of a smoked sausage. The menu says boudain, so I was a little disappointed there.The cocktail I ordered, the black mass, was the last one on the menu, and it was pretty strong. That's about the only thing I liked about it. Otherwise, I probably shouldn't have ordered a cocktail at a dive bar, so it's my fault The jukebox is great here, well the music playing was coming through on cable......but they were playing classic rock on a Monday night....late 60s and early 70s.....very easy listening stuff.

One of our favorite dark and divey gothy bars in all of Texas. We love the music (great mix of old punk, grunge, alt, goth, industrial, etc), beer selection, and cocktails. Food is absolutely outstanding - especially for a dive bar, and the service is surly (in the best possible way!). We aren't local but this bar makes us wish we were.

What a find - seriously, it's as if you're in a movie scene with live music on Friday nights... the blackened shrimp tacos are my absolute fave - however, the tuna is a close second. The vibe is cool, and whenever I'm in CC - This spot is a must visit! Our server was super accommodating, my order got last in translation, the first go around, and she was kind enough to correct it and didn't make too much of a fuss.

Food and service is home style, corpus holding it down with the good ass grub. Ambiance is welcoming and delicious.

Definitely a dive/biker bar but the people are all super friendly. Bartenders are fast, friendly, and make great drinks. Everything is reasonably priced.The best part though is the food. No question the best blackened fish tacos ever. I don't know how they do it in that tiny little kitchen but damn those are good. 2 for 1 on Taco Tuesdays!

We were in town for a mini vacation and found Black Monk- super great dive bar, chill playing pool, darts, or pin ball! Then be sure to get the ahi won tons - yummy! And the boundin balls were excellent. We were only in town for 3 nights and came in twice!
