I ate at the Astor when I came to Corpus Christi in 1970. It is still the best place to eat in 2011. The best steaks I ever ate , very friendly , and clean.

My husband and I were on a road trip for our anniversary October 2010. We arrived in Corpus and lost track of time. Before we knew it, we were very hungry and not sure of what to eat. Once we were situated at our hotel, my husband asked the front desk clerk about a good local spot. She suggested The Astor. We were VERY pleased! My steak (with all the trimmings) was easily the best steak I've had in YEARS. My mouth waters thinking about it now. The service was friendly. I can't WAIT to go back to Corpus, just for another steak!
Wow! Unfortunately this restaurant offers the poorest service one can imagine. The food is marginal at best and over-priced. Unbelievable, really. This restaurant will not survive. No way.
I have eaten here before numerous times and have had really good experiences...not this time. Although the food...once we finally received it was very good...it was a loooong time coming. There were 6 of us...one was a 1 1/2 yr old baby...they naile

It had been about 14years since last dining at Astor's, it was just as good as I remembered it! The prices seemed about the same as 14yrs ago.

Other reviewers are right. Best Steaks in Corpus and Fried Shrimp are closest to Ship Ahoy. Green Goddess and Ranch Dressing are delicious. My kids are grown and live elsewhere but when they come to visit we all have to got to the Astor.
The best steaks and grilled or fried shrimp in Corpus. Does anyone remember the Ship Ahoy? The Astors fried shrimp are just like they used to make. Also the Greek green godess salad dressing is really good.

The best steaks in Corpus, grilled with mesquite, they are tasty and done to perfection. One of the best restuarantes I've every had the pleasure of dining at.
