Andy’s Country Kitchen Menu & Prices

She Waited These Tables Before She Owned Them
Andy’s current owner, Agie Dominguez, wasn’t an investor who bought into a Corpus Christi institution from the outside — she spent more than 20 years as one of Andy’s own waitresses before taking over the restaurant. It’s the kind of succession that explains why regulars say the place still feels the same as it did decades ago: the person running it learned the room from behind an apron, not a spreadsheet.
Every Table Gets Free Blueberry Muffins
Andy’s has been at 5802 S. Staples since 1978, with roots in the neighborhood going back to 1958 — but the detail visitors mention as often as the food itself is the complimentary blueberry muffins that come out before you’ve even ordered. It’s a small, consistent touch that’s stuck around across generations of regulars, the same way the chicken fried steak and breakfast enchiladas have.
What’s Today’s Lunch Special at Andy’s?
Andy’s runs a genuinely different lunch special every day, made fresh and served starting at 11am until it sells out. Pick a day to see it — this pulls straight from Andy’s own posted lunch board.
