Share your opinion about Noah's Ark Restaurant & Palapa Bar on Galveston Bay
We live in Austin, but every time we visit Bacliff we go to Noah's ark even 3 times a day during our weekend, their breakfast is very good, but what I love the most is their seafood menu. The grill oysters are amazing, the tuna tostada, and fish plates are our favorites. Second floor I believe is the smokers area, so we always eat in the first floor, or outside it's awesome as well.
The workers are very nice as well.

Service quality varies; some guests find the staff friendly but sometimes not very attentive, often due to being short-staffed.
