The quality is always top-notch, the staff is friendly, and the prices are super reasonable for what you get. It’s my favorite spot when I’m craving a great burger without the gluten. Highly recommend!
Not alot of food choices for celiac/ gluten concerns. We ordered chicken whiff. They were tasty n big but one was cold n red on the inside n after reheating; while the end bone was popping hot the inside was still cool. Disappointing
I love their gluten free pizza! And they have awesome toppings.
Pizza night is one of those simple pleasures of life. And when you have food allergies it feels even more special. It’s exhausting to say over and over “Sorry, I can’t eat there”. But when it comes to Sam and Louie’s I get to say “oh yeah I can eat there! And it’s good!”
My wife has celiac, so when we moved to Corpus and saw that Padre Island Burger Co. had gluten free buns, it was a no brainer to try. Good thing we did, because the food is amazing! No issues with GF and tons of burger options! Friendly staff and nice outdoor seating makes for a great casual dinner after a long day of work or a day at the beach!
Pros:
Service was excellent. Our server was kind and responsive. The views really are gorgeous and it’s a great time of year to be outside. The GF options are clearly defined.
Food:
I got the grilled fish tacos. This is NOT a place I would go with celiac. Although our sever was truly amazing and willing to figure out anything, there was no mention that the fries had gluten.
The food was a solid three stars for me. The ingredients are fresh and the fish and burger were cooked well. But everything was a bit lacking. The green beans tasted frozen to me. They very well just could have been steamed, but they tasted bland to me. (And I really like green beans.) I wished the corn tortillas were heated. They were straight out of the bag, and the fish was cold. That being said, I took my extra one home because the Tuna was super solid and well seasoned.
The ceviche was Tex-mex? I’m not sure what was going on. It was more of a saucy salsa style rather than a cut up, pico type, of salsa. Again, the fish was fresh. I loved the shrimp in it but overall me and my husband were disappointed with it.
For highly sensitive people, it’s very loud. But it’s a very popular local spot on the beach so that is to be expected. I was glad I brought my sunglasses as it’s open to the outside.
If you’re looking for great views, solid food, and a casual eat out, this is a decent option. I don’t know what else Corpus has to offer but people seem to love it. Our Airbnb even recommended it.
I would wager a bet that their fried fish options are super solid. I just couldn’t partake with my gluten allergy. But given how well my fish was cooked, and the other reviews, I’d go for those meals.
Chops & Eggs has quickly become our go to spot, we eat here weekly and every single meal is consistently perfect. Pictured are two of our dinner favorites: Tender lamb tips with mushrooms, rich brown gravy over creamy mashed potatoes and the 16oz prime New York strip, cooked to absolute perfection and served with mash and fresh asparagus. Both dishes are not only beautifully presented but bursting with flavor.
As someone with a gluten allergy, I’m always impressed by how many safe and delicious options are available. The care they put into accommodating dietary needs is rare and so appreciated.
Chef Jordan is truly exceptional his love and passion for food shines through in every bite. The prices are reasonable, the staff is always friendly, and the welcoming atmosphere makes us feel like family.
We always leave full, happy, and already planning our next visit. Highly recommend!
Finally had Zambra Fusion Cafe for lunch! This is a vegan meal but they have a bunch of vegetarian, gluten free, non gmo, and organic options! And yes they serve meat too if you’re not into the healthy stuff! 10/10 recommend!
I have to eat gluten free and had a fantastic meal here. I was able to have shrimp scampi, they have gluten free pasta and took precautions. Our server Alyssa was very helpful.
Tim was our waiter this evening. Let me just say. Wow!! What an experience with him. Great all around! Made sure our drinks where filled.Answered all my questions for GLUTEN FREE options. His whole demeanor was pleasant one! A ++ service from Tim. The food was really good too! I most certainly will come back!
These dishes are POPPIN with FLAVOR. 🤯 Very tasty, flavorful, and well presented. I love that their menu is very inclusive of food allergies/preferences like vegetarian and gluten free 🙌🏼
We had the Panang Curry with shrimp, and the Tom Kha Gai, with Thai Tea. The Thai tea was a little too sweet for my personal preference but balanced out with a glass of water pretty nicely. Everything was ❤️🔥packed with flavor❤️🔥 and at a perfect temperature. Great customer service too!
I believe the recent reviews were too critical. My friend and I visited from out of town and always choose Jersey Mike's because my friend has a gluten intolerance. The staff was excellent. The person taking our order asked if the gluten-free bread was due to an allergy or preference, and when we mentioned it was an allergy, they went above and beyond. They prepared the meat and cheese separately, sanitized the boards thoroughly, and even changed gloves. I was extremely pleased with the level of care they took to ensure my friend's safety with her meal.
We love this place! Great food! Outstanding service! My husband is gluten intolerant and this place can make almost anything gluten free! It’s a Must try!
I loved my pizza! It's difficult to find a tasty gluten free crust that tastes good, but they've done it. I also appreciated that they offer different sauce options for those us us that can't eat tomatoes. I don't get to eat pizza very often because of my dietary restrictions, so I'm grateful to be able to find a place that can cater to them. Thank you!
Our server took the time to ask the chef if different food items were gluten-free. I ate the salmon roll and Mango tuna yuze poke small plate. The Yuze poke was delicious. I especially loved the crunch of the shrimp chips which is a real treat as gluten-free. I can't wait for our next conference trip to eat here again!
This was our first time dining at BKK Thai and we had an incredible experience. The food were delicious and fresh. There were plenty of vegan and gluten free options. The service was excellent from the beginning till the end. Christina, the restaurant manager, was super friendly, professional, and knowledgeable. We feel very lucky to stumble on such a wonderful restaurant. ☺️

Very bland and just not good. We did not finish our pad Thai or lo mein which you would think are pretty safe options. Love the fact they have gluten free options, but they really need to ramp up the menu.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Truly Delicious and Gluten-Free Thai Experience!
I can't say enough good things about this place! Every dish we tried was absolutely bursting with flavor and the best part? Everything was completely gluten-free, which is such a rare and wonderful find for Thai cuisine.
The Pad Thai, Yellow Curry, and Panang Curry were all superb! Rich, fragrant, and perfectly balanced. And the Thai iced tea transported me right back to the first time I ever had one, sweet, creamy, and full of nostalgia.
What impressed me most was how accommodating they were with my daughter's very restricted diet. They prepared her a simple but flavorful plate of grilled chicken, steamed vegetables, and brown rice, and she loved it! It's not easy to find places that take dietary needs seriously without sacrificing taste, but they nailed it.
The only downside is that the cottage can be a bit noisy indoors, but I highly recommend grabbing a seat on the porch—it's much quieter and adds to the charm of the whole experience.
Highly recommend for anyone looking for authentic, gluten-free Thai food with fantastic service!
Look, I read the reviews; I always read the reviews and especially the negative ones. I imagine this place can get quite busy during the beach season AND everything is made to order. If you want fast, go to Mcdonalds or Starbucks. In the end it wasn't like it was that slow but not everything in life THIS GOOD should be fast. I had a creative bun-less burger called the Sgt Dan. It was delicious - 5 star for sure. I'll be back. Enough variety in the menu to keep it interesting and a gluten free option or two. Also, with it being close to the beach I can eat, maybe have a glass of vino, and then take a walk on the beach.. which we did. Good times.
Drove 23 minutes to get here because we called and they said they had gluten free options...so we are expecting home made gluten free bakery goods...get here only gluten free option is udis bread on a sandwich...big let down...nothing else gluten free. Food was ok..nothing great. Spent 33$ on 2 meals and 2 drinks..so price ok not great either...we ordered the smores cold brew and they come out looking nothing like the picture of them..no Whipcream no chocolate or gram cracker on top...had to request them to look like pic...could tell they were annoyed making it correctly :(
Best place in Corpus. Classy, well -sourced & seasoned deliciousness (oysters, fish, key lime pie). They also have a GLUTEN-FREE Menu. Whole team was fantastic. Shout out Miranda. A+
Definitely the best pizza oven in town. My wife has to eat gluten-free and they do offer a gluten-free option which is quite good (you can’t even tell it’s gluten-free). Pizza size is more than adequate and the choiofor ingredients plentiful. Their Caesar salad is excellent. We often order online for pickup, but also dine in.
A real jewel in the area! The service is excellent, the food and drinks are great too. They don’t have many gluten-free options but plenty vegan dishes. The desserts looked AMAZING and my niece verified 10/10 delicious. Only advice to the owners would be to continue working on the restroom and gluten free options and y’all would truly pop. 🩵
The manager and the two young men were very nice to me, I know ordering gluten free in the middle of service can be a hassle but they were all smiles and handled it like pros, very great leadership and service, will be returning
We have been very pleased with them. Lots of ingredients, very good gluten free crust. Consistent across locations since they weigh and measure everything. Quality of toppings is quite good. Fast service. This is a take and bake store. Probably the best commercial pizza.

Love the music playing, Frank Sinatra etc! Delicious manicotti and cannaloni! Shrimp and Alfredo also great. I would love for you to offer Gluten free pasta as an option. Great wait staff, reasonable, we love it!
This is hands down the best pizza place in corpus. If you are looking for a gluten free pizza this is the place you need to be, they make the gf pizzas to order, the dough isn't frozen and microwaved like it feels like it is at other places. The staff there are so friendly and the service is awesome. The wood fire grill is super good. Our takeout order was 10/10, Odis is def in the top 5 restaurants in corpus.
Nana was our waitress, twice now, and that lovely NEEDS A RAISE!! She knew what we needed and wanted and my MIL has to have gluten free..Nana didn't miss a beat she says "I GOT YOU"
Food was DELICIOUS!! MIL and I was "mmm here and mmm there" I am very picky with burgers and Neko's Burger hit my fancy that when we went back...I GOT IT AGAIN! I really need to try something else from there as I know it will be on point!
Atmosphere..
Beautiful place and very clean. Happy and chatty customers throughout but not obnoxiously loud 😁
Tom and I just ate beyond burger free today with drink purchase. Mine was without the bun(avoiding gluten). It was very good and our waitress Theresa V. was very sweet, service was fast and excellent.
I have a gluten intolerance. When I ordered my sub with gluten free bread they made sure to clean everything before making my sandwich. A lot of places won’t bother doing so. So I appreciate the effort they put in. Thank y’all <3
Friendly staff. They were closing in 20 min. They did not rush us or appear impatient that we were there so close to closing. My son is gluten intolerant, the young man changed gloves and took precautions not to cross contaminate him. It would have been a miserable trip home if he had not.

Awesome spot, with beautiful views of the Marina. Was dining gluten free, and they absolutely nailed making dishes that everyone could enjoy. The steaks were incredible, and the service was excellent throughout. Christina was awesome. Not sure what the negative reviews are talking about. All of the chairs are brand new, and this was a great New Years dinner!
