“I have been coming to Grumbles since it opened. I’m down here a lot checking on my property… just me and my quiet little dog. Grumbles has the kindest, most courteous staff EVER! The food is fantastic… I love all of the seafood, and the fried green tomatoes are amazing. I can sit with my dog anywhere, quietly and no one bats an eye unless to ask if either of us needs anything. The vibe is fantastic, not to mention the friendly bartenders when my lady friends come down for some R&R and good cocktails. Love love love Grumbles!“

The front office staff were extremely friendly and knowledgeable about the Inn and the town, gave us great recommendations and went the extra mile for us as far as accommodations.

Whether it's quick adult get a way or a family fun event you won't be disappointed. If you've got the time, make plans to stay here. I could go and on.. We will be back soon 💐 Thank you again for everything“

Red snapper was one of the best and the flounder special (coconut rum sauce and pistachios) is one of the best fish dishes I've ever had. Nice bar and wine list. Make reservations and GO!“

Port A Beachlodge American • $$

“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.“

“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.“
