Seafood Restaurants in Galveston

“My wife and I celebrate our wedding anniversary every year on June 28th. We make our reservation for table 6. The receptionist was on target and very polite in showing my wife and I to our awaited table. Our server was Alizah, excellent service with a smile, attentive to our requests, expedient service. We started out with the bread and olive oil, excellent Pina Colada and wine. Our annual appetizer order of three cheese bread with crab spinach dip. Main Entrees was the 5 crab stuffed shrimp with fresh asparagus for my wife. I had the grilled redfish, shrimp, scallops with asparagus, steamed squash, zucchini. We were savoring every bite!!!! To finalize, Alizah had brought us a complimentary cheesecake dessert with cherry flavor Happy Anniversary scribed for a great photo opportunity. We received our bill, very comfortable with cost, recommended 20% gratuity, plus a $2.00 bill for our server attendant and the chef for mucho Suerte and Pura Vida !!!!“

“Enjoyed brunch on the outdoor patio with my Malinois, Pita. The staff were super accommodating and brought my girl some water. The food was delicious!“

“So incredibly yummy!! Korean style & Dirty South catch of the day tacos, side of bok choy & onion rings with curry ketchup. My husband spied another customer having the Vietnamese wings & had to order some. Pineapple verde cocktail was also refreshing & delicious! Fish Company Taco is a breath of fresh air amongst the many southern seafood restaurants in Galveston! And might I mention very affordable!!“

“Doesn't look like much from the outside, so I had a bit of sticker shock when I saw the menu prices ($13 hamburger, $11 chicken fingers), but the food was EXCELLENT. The popcorn shrimp was some of the best I've had on the island, the feta burger and fries were delish, and the chicken quesadillas were the tastiest we've ever had. Chips and salsa were also good.“

“Great food, service and experience. Would put it on your agenda if you are ever in Galveston.“

“The best gyros on island. The meat was a 1/2 inch thick, so moist and fresh! Highly recommend.“

“Had drinks at the bar in the lounge to begin the evening - the tequila old fashioned, the espresso martini, and the lemon drop martini were on point!

From there we were welcomed and seated by the manager (Mr. B) and greeted by our waiter (Joshua). Both of whom have that knack for making you feel like you’re the most important party in the building. They set the tone for a great experience and Joshua does an outstanding job of anticipating the table’s needs so you never feel like you’re “waiting” for anything.

We started with apps that the table shared. The tuna tartare was phenomenal .. it’s a great go to if you love fresh tuna .. but the wasabi is real and it doesn’t play so go lightly. The pork belly brings an amazing sweet and smoky element with it. And the escargot is delicious .. don’t miss the chance to dip the bread into the butter and stuff left in the dish once the escargot has been enjoyed.

Tuesday nights are the Surf and Turf special - $35 lobster tail and filet. You can add any of the usual steak topping to it for a slight charge (the blackened crab or smoked mushroom sauce are both outstanding) .. but the demi-glacé on the filet stands on its own as well. Can’t go wrong with that. We’ve eaten here multiple times .. and there’s really no wrong answer on a menu that has something for everyone on it.

Overall .. while it seems like the newer restaurants in Galveston are more often discussed and suggested .. Shearn’s is as good as (or better than) it’s ever been. Perfect place to watch an amazing sunset .. have a perfectly crafted cocktail .. and enjoy an amazing meal while you’re taken care of by great service.“

“the food was excellent, the services was delightful, the atmosphere was excitement.“

“fantastic service price was good to much to eat“

“We had the shrimp kisses and shrimp tacos. Both were excellent. Great price point too. And, I love tres leche- their banana tres leche was the best I’ve ever had.“
