Deep Sea Fishing Trip, Port Aransas, TX, clip 4 | Port Aransas

I’m sorry if this question is too specific. I’m looking for some help in finding a nice restaurant near North Padre Island. It’s for an anniversary, and we would like to dress up for the occasion, so I’m looking for a place where suit/dress attire is acceptable. I’ve found quite a few places in Port Aransas, but none are very dressy. Any help is appreciated!

Best answer:

Answer by Queen of the Dust Mites You aren’t going to dress up in Port A. Sorry, but it is a fishing town. If you put on long pants instead of shorts you will be dressed up. You can drive into downtown Corpus Christi and go to the Omni hotel and they have a 4 star restaurant and you can dress up there. The Sheraton downtown used to have a restaurant at the top that was dressy, but I am not sure it is still open. The Coastal Bend is not a place where people dress up very often, so driving to Corpus Christi is going to be your best bet. If you don’t have to be dressy, then by all means go to Snoopy’s under the Intracoastal bridge. They have awesome fried seafood. If a fried seafood shack is not to your liking, then head to Corpus Christi and check out the Water Street Oyster Bar. Not dressy, but still good. For the coat and tie gig, your best bet will be the Omni, you can call and make a reservation.
