Nolan's Restaurant - Calallen / Northwest Blvd — Restaurant in Corpus Christi

Bought food curbside Calallen location last two months, Feb and March once each. Feb I had brisket and sausage poorboy. Meat good, bun was dried out like sat on counter couple days. Potato salad was mashed mush, no chuncks. March had Chicken fried chicken dinner, was alittle greasey but tasted ok. Not really impressed over all. April went to Southside location by Staples st. Dine in. This was the nail in coffin for me. Decided to stay away from poorboys, had brisket plate. Requested lean brisket, fries, beans, and warm dinner roll. Meat was fatty and rubbery, rest of food was great. Very disappointing, not giving this restaurant anymore tries. Staff was very nice, food quality just not there in Meat. My daughter had original poorboy, buttered and heated in oven. Looked terrific and she liked it. Wish they would've heated and butter the poorboy with brisket and sausage I had ordered...

Our first time time here on our way to San Antonio from South Padre island. My friend and my husband were in the mood for chicken fried steak.. we saw the advertisement on the billboard. The best decision we made that day was to stop here for lunch. When we walked in there we knew... this is going to be good. Our order taker greeted us with a big smile and I told her it was our first time here. She was very helpful. Now down to the best part.. the food was to die for. The chicken fried steak as they put is was the best they have ever eaten and my B-B-Que poor boy well if I could I would drive back from San Antonio every weekend just to have it again! We were so glad we stumbled across this place and will definitely make it a regular stop whenever we pass this way...

10 March 2020. I ordered a bacon Cheeseburger which was incredibly dry and bacon so hard (beyond "crispy") you couldn't bite through it, pinto beans were tasteless and barely warm. I returned almost the entire plate uneaten (the Ketchup was pretty good so I ate some of my fries). Remarked to bus person about the meal but got no response at all and he did not say anything when he went back behind the counter. When we remarked on the poor quality at the counter, the manager(?) told us to order something different next time (really?!!!!!). I guess it will be another 8 months before I go back - a disappointment every time. $31 into the garbage and a staff that doesn't care. I hope I remember how bad it is longer this time. p.s this site will not allow me to give it less...
