Rockin' Cigar Bar & Grill @ 3rd Coast — Restaurant in South Padre Island

What a great vibe! Peter really knows his stuff and is a veritable mind-reader like you’d want a bartender to be. We came for a place to buy and smoke a cigar (forget other places on the island for selection), but wound up genuinely amazed at the understated, effortless way this place does its job. Simple bar food, but done well. Nothing “upscale” or “cheffy”, but really great examples of whatever it’s supposed to be. Like the chili dog. Try it! A great bun that can stand up to the chili, a good dog, and a pretty damned good chili! The queso fundido rocks, too. Throw in a laid back cat and dog (the mascot), a wooden Castro by the door, and you’ve got a place with its own distinct character. Oh, and don’t be confused by the doors.

I had one of the worst experiences here. First, the wait time for my order was extremely long. When I finally received my pizza, it wasn’t what I ordered — I specifically asked for a chicken pizza, but they gave me a completely different meat.

What made it worse is that instead of taking responsibility, the staff treated me as if I was lying or joking. That is unacceptable for any restaurant. Mistakes can happen, but the lack of professionalism, accuracy, and respect shown here is very disappointing. Definitely not coming back. Poor service and no value...

I arrived with 3 friends expecting to order a bottle and a few shots… upon arrival the bartender asked me who I was and why I was at the bar. I then ask him what he meant? He then stated that I and my friend where not allowed in this facility….. I have traveled 100 times in my life and never in my 40 years of life felt so belittled and disrespected. I understand that certain individuals don’t like other humans, but I am a hard working American that supports all walks of life. I do not recommend anyone this...
