46 Best Seafood Restaurants near Texas City

“This has become our Tuesday nite burger which is the best in town. People are down home and the always make you feel welcome.“

“Fun place and delidelicious food“

“We only had crawfish so can't speak to the full menu since they've modernized. Crawfish were good but overpriced relative to the previous week. About $8 a pound including a potato and corn. Last time I was there a few weeks ago it was $6 a pound. Meanwhile wholesale crawfish prices fell.

Service is much better when they have the drive up option open. It was not.“

“We went to Tangers and after shopping, were searching for Halal food nearby and surprisingly found this.
The service is too good the guy at the counter was very receptive, took our order carefully, guided us sincerely and served us promptly.
We ordered crunchy box meal, boneless sweet and sour wings and chicken tenders.
The food was served hot and the chicken was juicy, crispy and flavorful.
There is nice outdoor seating and ample indoor seating too
We really enjoyed the Krispy Krunchy and juicy chicken“

“The food is the best I’ve had in the area. Warm salsa and crispy chips. Charro beans were simply the best. Margaritas were good. Atmosphere was relaxing and the staff was exceptional. Will definitely bring my family back.“

“Living in Texas City, this is a regular stop. Love the grilled seafood and steamed veggies, and the catfish is to die for. Hats off to the staff, always friendly and helpful“

“Very friendly staff, Great Food, Highly recommend“

“Since moving to Texas eating at Pier 6 has been our favorite dining experience. The food was delicious and mirrored New Orleans finest. Chef Joe Cervantez culinary skills result in delicious food from appetizers, entree to desserts! Our waiter was extraordinary and was so kind and polite. The restaurant sits on Galveston Bay; hence the atmosphere is fun and lively along with a beautiful view.“

“Always excellent service and food!“

“best catfish I've ever had!!“

“Let me tell you about my evening at the Shrimp Shack in Galveston—it was the kind of experience that makes you want to write poetry about fried seafood. The shrimp? Perfectly golden, crispy, and so fresh I swear they waved at me from the fryer. Each bite was like a little crunchy hug from the Gulf. And as if that wasn’t enough, the sunset decided to show off. Sitting there, stuffing my face with fried shrimp while the sky turned shades of pink and orange, I felt like I’d hit the jackpot of simple pleasures. Shrimp, sunset, and sea breeze—what more could you want? Highly recommend. 10/10, would shrimp again.“

“Our was good. I had the seafood boil combo #2 and my husband had the oysters and a chicken quesadilla. The only thing I didn’t like was my second drink. I ordered a Paloma and it wasn’t very good. Other than that we enjoyed ourselves and the live band.“

“Ate lunch there on July 6th to celebrate my wife, Jan‘s birthday. Best seafood and service around. Plates are overloaded with fresh HOT seafood. Highly recommend this place.“

“I've been to Pacific Seafood many times and the food is exceptional. We have never been disappointed. The seafood and vegtables are fresh, the presentation is great and everything that we have eaten has been delicious. The atmosphere is nothing special but the food and the service makes up for it.“

“Fantastic restaurant with charm, friendly service, and outstanding food.

Food came out fresh and hot and the owner was very friendly and clearly knew customers.

Whenever I’m back in the area, I’ll be back!“

“Nick's is great!! Great service, awesome atmosphere, and incredible food!“

“I have been eating here for so many years. The Best Catfish in the Greater Houston/Galveston area. I have since moved away from Dickinson, but I come to see Ms. Lily once a month and still get the "All You Can Eat Catfish." A MUST when in the area or traveling to Galveston. 5 stars all the way...they treat you like family.“

“It was very delicious don't go hungry because they cook it fresh and it's very very hot you could burn the palate of your mouth! Make sure on the platter you get the trump fried rice instead of the French fries!“

“Breakfast is always yummy no matter what we order. 😋“

“Love this place service and food is outstanding took my mom for fist time she loved it we had choose 2 shrimp and cat fish fries and slaw desert was bread pudding made from donuts w caramel icing and pecans to die for,Skylar took great care of us see yall soon thx so much“

“The crab dip alone is worth the drive from Houston. The last two times I've been there the shrimp taco I always get tasted different. Not sure if it's a different recipe or cook? I enjoyed the ones I use to get. So next time I go, I'll try the hamburgers. I heard they are great. The friendly staff and patrons ROCK! Super chill place to relax and get your belly full.“

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

“We had a great experience at Shearn’s Seafood and Steak! Our server, Damien, was fantastic. The restaurant has that polished, upscale feel you’d expect from a place like this, but Damien’s great sense of humor made the experience feel relaxed and genuinely enjoyable.

The service was effortless from start to finish—attentive without being intrusive, professional without feeling stiff. Exactly the kind of service you hope for at a restaurant of this caliber.

And of course, the food and atmosphere were wonderful, too. We’ll definitely be back!“

“Probably the best classic hamburger I’ve had on the island!“

“Everything-fried asparagus, grilled shrimp, blackened salmon, suicide chocolate cake. Ronny is the best server😊.“

“We ate at Landry's in Galveston yesterday for dinner. Evan had waited on us before ....THE best waiter ever! He was very professional and attentive. We sure hope we luck out again next time.“

“Went in today Cajun Joe’s today and ate the most delicious new Burger they were offering! Jalapeño mushroom patty on a jalapeño cheddar bun with a special sauce! It was amazing! I dubbed it the Voodoo Burger!“

“We ordered crawfish etoufe, salad, and hushpuppies, along with chicken gumbo, and coleslaw. Everything was great, but they were understaffed that day so the service was slow. There was only one person working the dining room, as well as take out, delivery pick-up, etc. This is very unusual, so we understood the circumstances. Service is always courteous and friendly. My husband had a sudden unrelated health incident during the meal, and the staff was quickly there to offer any assistance.“

“I had the Steakhouse Skewer with lobster, filet mignon, and colossal shrimp. It was fabulous, but next time my husband and I will share it. So much food! We were staying at another resort and had no way to take home the leftovers. Our waiter, Ricardo, was absolutely amazing. He made everything so wonderful. My only complaint, which is huge, is about the majority of the clientele. Loud, obnoxious, men wearing backwards caps and shorts in a very elegant atmosphere. When i go to a rather expensive restaurant, I would expect to see better behavior. So many were acting like it was a sports bar.“

“First time here and this place is legit! Great gumbo and big portions! Service was great also- Isabell and JT made sure everything was good!“

“I’m not the one to leave comments but I had to for this experience. Hands DOWN the BEST FOOD AND SERVICE I have every had . I drove by this place for years and never knew that I was missing out on ALOT . I was missing the down home Louisiana cooking and the friendliest of the staff .Including the owner . It reminded me of home . If you need a reason to go this is it . You will not be disappointed. My stomach and soul was full !!!!“

“We go to Marais Sunday brunch 4-5 times a year. Our waiter Nick seemed to always be helping other tables. We were always waiting for something, a hot towel or our ticket and he never pour us more champagne. The main disappountment was my banana foster. It's my favorite and I always look forward to it. The sauce was overcooked and not warm. Hated that for my meal.“

“The fish is so fresh and everything is cooked when ordered. Restaurant is clean and the staff are very friendly and attentive and the prices are great.“

“I celebrated my birthday with a family member for the first time at Red River Cantina. The food was outstanding! The service was right on. The ambiance was TexMex classic. The ladies bathroom was impeccably clean and well stocked. Our server surprised me with a beautifully and delicious complimentary Sopapillas with cream and a lit birthday candle. Red River Cantina has nothing to envy their competitors. We all know who they are. Red River is our new restaurant for delicious and reasonably priced TexMex dining! Next on our list is their BBQ restaurant! Can't wait!“

“Hidden gem!! We dined-in during our trip over Memorial Day 2021 and we were surprised with how delicious the food was. The salsa that came with the chips & salsa was super flavorful but not overly spicy. Their crab balls are Amazeballs!! You HAVE to order them! So yummy! Best I’ve had anywhere. The Cajun seafood pasta is delicious and is served in a massive portion that can easily be split between 2 people. Generous serving with lots of shrimp, sausage, and chicken. The fried pickles were fantastic. Sharp dills, great thickness, light batter. I ordered a side of red beans & rice as my main dish and it has a great texture and a hint of tart vinegar...would be best paired with cornbread or the amazing crab balls. I had a regular margarita on the rocks. It was ok. It was the most mediocre thing we ordered...so you KNOW the food is good. The music is great. We were here on Saturday from 8:30-10pm and the playlist was a great mix of Motown jams. 10/10 would recommend The Fish Place. We Absolutely recommend dining at this hidden gem!“

“I want to say how AMAZING this place is! I booked a birthday dinner for my boyfriend and the owner called me personally and spoke with me and made sure that she decorated our table personally and even got us a private room (which I had no idea was going to happen)! When we arrived, there were beautiful balloons, candles and a stunning room filled with low lights and music. Her husband even came in to make sure everything was to our liking and the waitress (Chloe) was outstanding! I cannot say how wonderful each and every person was that night and how great the food was as well. We will for sure be regular customers at this restaurant for years to come! Thank you so much to the owners and the staff....You made us feel like royalty! God bless you guys!“

“I love yall food and I would buy the place if I could.“

“Always Fresh Seafood with a helpful friendly staff.“

“The best food in the area! Really good menu. And everything we ate was top tier! The owner Ms.Dee is super friendly. Apps were awesome I suggested the almond crusted shrimp or the Thai lettuce wraps. The mains were superb! You won’t find better food in the area. Going back today to try their pizzas!“

“Seriously the best pizza we’ve ever had. It was piping hot and the toppings were generous. The grandkids wanted chicken alfredo pasta. It wasn’t on the menu, but the owner made it for them! The owner was friendly and made our visit so enjoyable. There was even a Christmas themed photo backdrop behind the booth we sat in. So festive!🎄“

“I love this place awesome food and awesome service!!:)“

“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.“

“I like their. Beef enchiladas and their guacamole salad“
