“Raised in South Dakota on Angus beef. Never had a better rib eye anywhere, awesome food.“

“We stopped here Monday 11/3/2025 breakfast at a local restaurant - as we just arrived to Rockport area night before as we'll be here all winter - the Food was OMG so good...Eggs Benedict w/ hashbrowns was so scrumptious... Hubby ordered the French toast....- this will definitely be our go to local place while we're here - portions are large and price is really affordable - staff makes everyone feel welcome.“

“They alright. You get exactly what you pay for so if you’re looking for a 5 star resort, this is not for you. They provide clean, basic amenities with an ideal location and staff that has been there a very long time, so also don’t go there and be a turd to them because it’s not the Ritz. The food is standard Sysco fare that’s mostly consistent and good. They’re pet friendly as well, which is really nice. The best thing about beach lodge is THE BEACH! It’s right there. You can go to this location and really never need to leave because it has most amenities. Be sure to bring extra pillows and blanket if you get cold easily.“

“We Loved this place! We ate here for breakfast. The food was great. It was hot, fresh, and served quickly. The staff & service was awesome. The restaurant was clean, and full of sports memorabilia which we absolutely loved. Our server (I think her name was Marie or Maria) was equally as awesome. She took care of all 10 of us, and was super nice and friendly.
We visit Port A often and this was our 1st visit to Coach's.
Definitely won't be our last!“

“Highly recommend the appetizers, especially the baked and raw oysters. Entrée of a medium ribeye with fabulous mushrooms and mashed potatoes with an Arnold Palmer. Finish with a hot steamy chocolate cake, smothered in pecans and ice cream. All wrapped up by the best representation of this establishment- Robin.“

“Great place! Great food and drinks! And above all GREAT atmosphere!“

“Table of 7. Fabulous food, great service and unbelievable Bread Pudding for dessert.“

“1st time here .. Visiting from out of Town Highly Recommended Tried the Brie Appetizer and Wood Fired Pizza. Both Delicious! We tried the Jalapeno Pizza and Pepperoni Pizza (half & half) .. Wow! The Jalapeno Pizza was So Good! Not Spicy .. Just Right! Can't wait to come back and try a Steak!“

“We got here at opening time and sat at the bar. Service was great. Wish I would've gotten the bartender's name but it was Sunday 9/27. She was the only one working the bar.
We ordered the fried mushrooms which were the BEST that I've ever had. Even without the dressing. Unfortunately, we gobbled them before I remembered to take a picture!
The Philly was good, fries were good.
I had the blackened fish tacos and they were fantastic. Overall, everything was great! We'd definitely come back next time.“

“Good food, service and atmosphere.“

“Amazing food, and friendly staff“

“Love this place! Food is good and the staff is even better!!“

“The staff was friendly and polite. The chicken tortilla soup was delicious.“

“If I could give more than 5 stars, I absolutely would. We’ve eaten seafood all over the Texas coast, and Trout Street Bar & Grill has officially set the bar. Nothing else we’ve had even comes close. From the moment we walked in, the staff made us feel welcome. The atmosphere strikes the perfect balance between coastal charm and an upscale dining experience, and the menu offers something for everyone without feeling overwhelming. What truly separates this place is the quality of the seafood. Knowing the fish is caught locally and often goes from the boat to the kitchen the very next day and then to your table..is something you can genuinely taste. Every bite was incredibly fresh and cooked perfectly. Great food is one thing, but pairing it with outstanding service, an inviting ambiance, and an obvious passion for quality makes for an unforgettable meal. Trout Street Bar & Grill is hands down the best seafood restaurant we’ve experienced on the Texas coast. We’ll be talking about this meal for a long time, and it’ll be our first stop every time we’re back in Port Aransas. Freaking amazing! Way to go, Trout Street Bar & Grill. Y’all absolutely nailed it.“
