About El Catrin

El Catrin is a local restaurant on the island of Galveston that offers great food, service, and ambience. The owner, a local, ensures friendly staff and decent prices. The brightly decorated interior adds a lively touch, making it a cute place to enjoy a meal. The freshly made Guacamole has a zingy and slightly spicy flavor, and the French Fries served with the Shrimp Brochette are crispy outside and tender inside. The Ropa Vieja is well-prepared and generous, accompanied by outstanding rice. The Shrimp Brochette features a generous portion and is very fresh. Taco's El Morino is a must-try, filled with delicious beef or chicken fajita, poblano pepper, grilled onions, cheese, and cilantro. Customers also appreciate a free delicious vegetable soup and $3.99 margaritas during lunch. The restaurant offers a good selection of Mexican and Cuban dishes, with amazing flavors that diners enjoy. Non-alcoholic beverages are served in mason jars, adding a unique touch. Despite ongoing remodeling, El Catrin remains a great choice for fresh food, good service, and a welcoming atmosphere.

My husband and I visited this establishment for dinner. When my husband requested the check, the waitress took a picture of his credit card without his consent. Upon noticing her actions, my husband stood up to inquire about what she was doing, at which point the waitress quickly went to the kitchen to avoid further discussion. We cancel our card and filled a police report!!! Don’t eat here the staff was all in on it !

This place was recommended by a good friend of my family. We loved the delicious versatile food but left every intention of returning. The staff is very warm and inviting, it almost felt like I was back in my grandmother’s kitchen. Which I truly appreciated since we had to come from a funeral. Thank you to everyone for your kindness and prompt customer service
