Excellent customer service by a friendly smiling face! The whole fresh fried flounder is their best kept secret. Love this place! Must eat here every time I’m in town!

Quite possibly the best seafood on Galveston Island. Fresh, extremely affordable, and one of the very few restaurants open past 9 pm.

I was highly UNSATISFIED! The crawfish was obviously frozen and not seasoned. So disappointed!
