6 Best Southern Restaurants near Texas City

“Went to try out the Blue Lagoon Easter brunch buffet and it did not disappoint. Anything we wanted to eat, they had plus way more. We walked in to a assorted batch baked goods followed by full set up of country breakfast. It included all the breakfast staples plus chicken fried steaks, biscuits and gravy, eggs Benedict, and chicken and waffles. The next table over was a prime rib carving station that was carved by the Chef himself. The prime rib was perfectly cooked and tender and came with horse radish sauce, au jus, and veggie sides. Next, there was pizza followed by an made to order omelette station. We then come up to an assortment of cajun food (the gumbo was delicious). Towards the end there was a beautiful charcuterie layout. We were pleasantly surprised to see the they had smoked salmon for the bagels. The dessert table was the Cherry on top of the whole buffet, so many different cakes and cookies to choose from. The food was amazing, the staff was so nice and attentive, we hope to attend the next buffet event at the Blue Lagoon.“

“Buffet is fabulous. They have variety of food.“

“Great soul food. The amazing food and super friendly staff will warm your heart and your soul!! Check for daily specials btw!! I think they also just started some kind of buffet option but check times and dates. This is how I learned about American comfort food.“

“It was meant to be we were trying to go to a different one originally and they were closed and we wanted soul food. So I googled again and found this place. And I am so glad we did. My husband got the oxtails. I got the fish it was delicious the fish was fresh. It was juicy. I wish they had fried okra, but the mac & cheese was good and so are the green beans. I almost forgot the little cornbread was delicious. We got ours to go. But even the atmosphere inside was nice. Definitely not trying to make this a race thing but I’ve been to soul food places and they look at me differently because I’m white and my husbands black but everybody in here was super nice and we didn’t get any side eyes. So if you wanna be treated like a human and get some damn good food, this is where you need to go 10/10 recommend.“

“AWESOME! We had a very large order for a family party....50 chicken tenders and 24 fish filets and sides. We ordered the day before, it was done in time, and we even ordered 24 more tenders and 12 more filets at pickup. They were very helpful and all was done efficiently. The food is always so delicious.“
