Price's Chef — Restaurant in Corpus Christi

Don’t waste your time and money on this place. Wife, daughter and I were looking forward to it based on reviews. People were friendly and placed looked like it had been there forever. With anticipation we waited for our meal. Wife and I both ordered the eggs Benedict, daughter ordered a French dip. We also ordered a short stack to share. The pancakes came out first, way ahead of the meals. That was disappointing. At first bite I was immediately worried about what was to come. I could taste the dirty grill, I took one more bite just to be sure, after all it was the only thing on the table. Yeah the second bite was no better and my last bite of it, my family agreed. Next came our orders, they looked nothing like the pictures. The eggs were cooked hard, the small dab of sauce tasted like garlic and was disgusting. My first thought on taking a bite was something is spoiled, tasted rotten. It also had that bad grill flavor extending to the half cooked hash browns. My daughters French dip was advertised to come on fresh baked bread (it did not, came on a previous frozen Texas toast) We each had one or two bites of the pancakes, we each had two or 3 bites of our meals. The waitress never checked on us. I got her attention and asked for the check. At this point she noticed we had not eaten our meals and asked the problem. We explained that the food was inedible and that I could taste the dirty grill in everything. Her response was to tell me they’ve been very busy and when that busy they don’t have time to clean the grill…..yeah she actually said that. I just wanted to pay my bill and get out of there. She brought the check, full price for meals that were not eaten with no apologies only excuses. We paid the bill and I left a $5 tip which was more than deserved. You couldn’t drag me back to this place if they were paying me to eat there. If I could give less than one star I would, more like negative 5star. -5star rating I was actually worried for a couple of hours that we were going to be sick from just the few...

Let's talk about the food – it's simply incredible. The chicken and waffles are a standout dish, with crispy, golden-brown chicken paired perfectly with fluffy waffles and drizzled in sweet maple syrup. Each bite is a symphony of flavors and textures that leaves me craving more every time.

A very friendly and relaxing atmosphere the moment I walked in. The chatter and not so bright lights were very calming. I came with my family and we were seated immediately. The server then took our drinks and later came back for the rest of the order. It was a 10 minute wait until we got our food.

We went in for breakfast and ordered the price's breakfast with hash browns + biscuit, the all meat omelette with hash browns + biscuit, the Texas waffle and the eggs Benedict with sourdough toast. The hash browns were not seasoned but this worked very well as they balanced themselves with the other dishes. The all meat omelette was full of beacon, sausage and ham. It was not too much and tasted great. The eggs Benedict was by far the best, the creamy hollandaise sauce went really well with the eggs and bacon. The Texas waffle was really cute and tasted like buttery perfection (might have needed a bit more sugar.) The price's breakfast was well balanced, tasty and filling.

The waiter was so nice and took our order very patiently. She also kept topping off our coffee immediately.

Prices chef is a well established diner with a beautiful history and tasty food. If I'm ever in town again, I'm going to...
