Anyone been to this place? If so, how is it? Have had several people recommend it as a good hole in the wall seafood place with solid food and good Micheladas. Thought I remembered a recommendation or two on here but search function not working for me. TIA

Pass up Connie's continue on Airline a few blocks south and stop at Tampico. Order the whole snapper with shrimp and a few micheladas

You're welcome

Tampico is overrated. If you want damn good, cheap fried food, go to Connie's. Much less whiteys, too, which is always a good thing.

Golden is better than Connie's IMO. Tampico is good but not a cheap meal for the Red Snapper.

Been there, done that...had a very good experience but was buying for me, wifey and brother and the bill stung much more than I expected. I am only worth $5MM in Texags dollars, so I don't like droppin over $100 for 3 at divey places if I can help it.

Not always imo...like at the macro/country level...but in terms of gauging authenticity/quality level of ethnic foods, I tend to agree with you.

Oh if it's fried seafood then I cant vouch for Tampico.

For that my vote is Golden. The fried shrimp and fried rice is awesome.

That place is still open? I used to go there in high school. I remember my cousin freaking out when she ordered fish and the guy grabbed one from the tank and asked "head on or off?"

I actually have 6 links, and was getting super pissed the more info I looked up...So, look it up yourself, I am not going to fight about something I know to be true, to a person who would just as soon see me in prison or dead.

IDGAF what it is but it's good and I enjoy it. If you don't then don't go. Means less of a wait for me

There was/ is a Connie's by Pasadena in South Houston on Spencer by the Fiesta.

I remember there was a Connie's on I-45 by Hobby Airport but later became a Mannie's. I wondered if they just renamed it that so they wouldn't spend so much on changing the neon signs.
