“Jumbo Hamburger is always so good and the fries are like homemade fries. So big! The outside sign says 2 Jumbo burgers & 2 fries $9.99, but when I got my order, he said it was $14. Very disappointing to lure people with false advertising.Parking: Not too many spaces in front.“
“Come see my girl Theresa at the bar!! She rocks Saturday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday here at fish place! She's the girl you wish you had and the girl that has "Real" written all over her. The rest of the staff including the management rocks too. Show them love and tip the hell out of them. Music vibes and food is a killer. Turn up with the only fam you need. Wait your turn tho cus they in high demand. Respect and love is all you need to bring here and you get it back. Down and out or higher nd with the in, this is your place“
“Amazing fried snapper w a potato batter. Sounds interesting, weird even. I know. AMAZING w the tartar sauce they offer. Fried oysters and fresh oysters were amazing. Also got the lunch special asian fried fish tacos w Asian pickled vegetables and ginger soy Glaze ontop. The sauce can be a little rich, sweet, overbearing. I added some coleslaw to it which cut that strong flavor back just right. Beers on draft. Good cocktails. Coconut banana soufflé was surprisingly very good. My son ordered it for his birthday. They do big sparklers in their birthday deserts.Kid-friendliness: Games: giant jenga and sack toss on patio.Swing chairs and a cement pier to walk.“
“The pizza was surprisingly good and you can get green olives way to go seahorse Grill! And they have tater tots- I will double down on saying I've never had a bad tater tot so enjoy sadly no Montucky Cold SnacksVegetarian options: TOTS!“
“My husband and I love Miru, we come a lot and really enjoy all the food from the appetizers and drinks all the way to the desserts. We love to bring our out of town friends as well as the locals that have never been here and we have had no complaints from anyone. A lovely & welcome addition to this area…they never disappoint! Make sure you ask for Natalie as your server, she is amazing.Come try for yourselves!Dietary restrictions: My sister is Celiac and the options were great for her!“
“We drive from pasadena to texas city, just for these burgers. 1/3 lb. is PERFECT.I hate 1/2 lb burgers. It's too much! Remember people, half your customers are girls! Love the onion rings. One of these days we will try something else on the menu. I bet it's just as great.“
“Awesome place to have dinner in San Leon. I live all the restaurants out here but as a resident it is nice to have variety. This place is a hidden gem with good food, nice ambience and great prices. We have been three tiMrs and will come back.“
“I have never heard of this place, but on a trip to Galveston four of us decided to stop in. The oysters were excellent. The waitress was super friendly and the atmosphere was amazing. I am from Tennessee, have a place in Destin Florida and over 30+ years have eaten at most all of the fresh seafood places around there.....Gilhooley is at the top of myist.“
“My family had a really wonderful experience tonight. Our waitress, Demi, was attentive, thoughtful, and accommodating. The portions were large, reasonably priced, and absolutely delicious. From the surprisingly large kids chicken nuggets (think - mini chicken strips) and whole delicious green beans (nothing from a can, here) My shrimp Alfredo with seasonal vegetables was more than perfect. My husband (not a fish lover) really enjoyed his pecan encrusted red snapper. They even brought us wet wipes at the end - I know it sounds minor, but truly with a family (and baby in tow) this was such an enjoyable dining experience. I will say - we came on a late Sunday evening. It wasn’t crowded, there was plenty of room for my kids to run and play, and the outdoor tables even ROCK like a boat!!“
“Food is amazing but small portioned, can’t beat eating on the water as well. Love the food truck vibes but nearly everything was out when we got here couldn’t even order the breaded shrimp or the shrimp slaw. Still if ur looking for a place to eat, worth the try! Gotta hefty wait as well“
“Was recommended to come here for dinner on my first solo vacation by Damian and had a wonderful night! Amazing food, Burt played on the piano, and the staff made absolutely sure I had a great experience! Will definitely go back when I'm back in town!“
“Talk about a hidden treasure!! Me and family recently ate here, and everyone was 10/10 on their meals. The service was extremely friendly. The food was delicious and it came so fresh that we all had to give it a minute because of how hot the food was when it came out. Belinda was so friendly and welcoming and took great care of us, and we will no doubt be back here to grab burgers!!!“
“I picked up the 3 fish and 6 shrimp. This a lot of food. Fish and shrimp are big pieces. Catfish was very good and perfectly cooked. Butterfly shrimp was fresh and just as good. Food was delicious. The coleslaw was maybe the best I have ever tasted. Very delicious coleslaw. Need to go back and order just a large coleslaw. Highly recommend. Definitely a hidden gem in dickinson.“
“Terrific food, and friendly staff but they cook to order and are very busy so it can take awhile for the order to be ready. (We think it's worth the wait!) It's takeout only and you wait outside, but there are some stools to wait on out of the sun. The place is right next to Boyd's bait store and that's busy also. Only a few nearby picnic tables, but you can go out on the Texas City Dike (which sometimes charges a fee) to find other picnic tables (which can be a bit sandy and have bird droppings) or you can eat in your vehicle.“
“Pook’s Crawfish Hole was everything I expected and more. The crawfish had a great flavor and the menu was great, even providing options for kids who do not eat seafood. My husband had the Pook’s platter so he was able to get a mix of boiled crawfish, shrimp, and crab. Our waitress, Shelbi, was amazing and she was very helpful. I can’t wait to go back for more crawfish!“
“A great place to eat if you want a down home, relaxed kind of experience.The food is very good, with a lot of fried options and very good fried rice on the side. I've tried their burgers, fries fish, fries shrimp, chicken fried rice, and their chicken salad. All really good!The service is excellent here. The staff really takes care of you, and are always kind and treat you like family.The interior is not that big, but there are plenty of small wooden tables to sit at and enjoy the view of the beach and the seawall, which makes for a very cozy atmosphere.“
“Very impressed with the service here and not just because of the robot server. This place is very well attended by the staff. The food was delicious. I will admit the gumbo was thicker than what I'm used to and not as soupy but great flavor with lots of shrimp, chicken and sausage. I also had the fried fish on a bed of fries. Not kidding an entire basket of fries with about 5-6 fish filets. Very good value. The bar also looked very nice from where I sat. Awesome atmosphere.“
“Yamato, the celestial realm of sushi perfection in Galveston, Texas, left me utterly enchanted. A culinary voyage guided by masterful artisans who wielded their knives like samurai swords, crafting edible masterpieces that danced on my taste buds. Each morsel was a symphony of flavors, a gastronomic sonnet composed with the freshest ingredients. The ambiance, a fusion of elegance and tranquility, elevated the dining experience to an otherworldly level. Yamato isn't just a sushi haven; it's a celestial sanctuary where taste transcends boundaries. Prepare for a gastronomic odyssey that will leave you starry-eyed—undoubtedly deserving of a five-star constellation of praise.“
“I reserved the Emmitte Room to host a surprise 50th anniversary party for my parents. I live overseas and worked with Doug to plan the party from 8000 miles away without every stepping foot in the restaurant or seeing the Emmitte Room in real life until the day before the event. Doug was so great to work with! He not only executed the party flawlessly, but he helped to ensure that my anxiety was kept at bay. Brandice was the lead server the evening of the party and she was the ultimate professional and added so much value to an already amazing evening! Thank you to Doug, Brandice and the rest of the team for helping me to pull this off. I couldn’t have done it without you all. (The room was stunning and the food was out of this world!)“
“I feel like this is a secret amazing spot. I’ve only ever been for lunch and it never disappoints. Staff is knowledgeable about the menu & friendly. I love the hot crab dip & the bang bang shrimp. Super cute inside! There is an in between sitting area on the patio that’s covered which is nice and gives a view of the Gulf. One of my favorite places to eat on the island.“
“I like Johnny’s because it’s a small local business. I see them cooking and making the food as ordered and it’s fresh. I feel like I’m at someone’s house and they’re cooking for me. Always friendly, and sometimes, when he’s trying some thing new, he’ll hand me a sample for my opinion. EVERY NOW and AGAIN, I can twist his arm to make some coconut tea ???. But really nice people. The inside is old looking, but it’s a hidden gem. Don’t let appearances fool you. Food is good“
“J. T. and his crew are the BEST. If I owned a restaurant, I would hire him as my manager. He can do any job, cook, bartend, wait tables and always does it with a smile. Jade is very friendly and professional and Blanca can cook some great waffles.This is a weekly stop for my family. Food is always fresh and great. Worth a visit.“
“Captain ceviche is delicious. The lobster rolls are the best I've ever had. They put so much lobster. Their lobster tacos are amazing. Ive had ceviche at so many places even in other countries and nothing compares to theirs. The employees and the owner are so nice. I can't say enough good things about them.“
“We stayed in Texas City to avoid the crowds in Galveston and the inevitable long wait to get a table in a restaurant.Gus was a comfortable restaurant, good service, GREAT food for a reasonable price. I had the blackened catfish, she had the fried. Both were excellent!“
“These folks are from Galveston and are really great , inspite of their very rude serving staff I’m aware that good help is hard to find.. this seems like a great opportunity for some training.. again food was very good and plenty of it! Again the food was great and a lot of it .. the staff just left a lot to be desired.Kid-friendliness: I would not recommend taking my kids there…“
