Savor the Flavor of the Isle

Fruitful fishing waters around Galveston Island provide local restaurants with the freshest and largest selection of seafood on the Gulf of Mexico, and area eateries presents these fruits of the sea at their tastiest.

Although freshly-caught seafood is a resounding favorite on the Island, area menus offer tastes from around the world, ranging from well-known Cajun favorites to Tuscan secret recipes.

You'll find succulent steaks, juicy chicken dishes, and plenty of vegetarian options from which to choose. In fact, when it’s time to dine there are more than 100 restaurants to choose from.

After dinner, don't forget to treat yourself to one of our wonderful desserts. Specialties range from mouth-watering pecan pie and home-made cakes, to tempting international treats like tres leches and tiramisu.

And then? Catch a few sets of live music and top off the evening with a waterfront stroll down the Seawall. The Strand, Pier 21 and Postoffice Street area are home to art galleries housed in brightly painted Victorian buildings. On a Saturday evening about every six weeks, the galleries host an Artwalk, featuring changing artists’ works.

Perfect Pizzas
There are few foods quite as perfect as good pizza. There are few foods that can please children and adults alike.

Galveston al Fresco: Hot Spots to Enjoy an Island Breeze
The dogs and I went for our nightly stroll through the neighborhood alleyways, and all along our walk you could hear families outside enjoying this fabulous spring weather. It seemed as though every yard had someone outside. But with spring in Galveston, you can’t help but want to be outside as much as possible.

DINING DIVA: A Review of Willie G’s Seafood & Steaks
It’s been a while since we dined at Willie G’s. A friend wanted lobster for her birthday so a group of us gathered there. The weather was lovely so we chose outdoor seating, a special treat with the Elissa temporarily docked nearby. The extensive wine list provided both the red and white wine lovers among us many fine choices and we savored some while we perused the menu.

Fresh Faces for Postoffice Street Dining
Galveston Restaurant Group announces major changes this week for two of its most popular dining concepts, Sky Bar Steak & Sushi and Gumbo Bar. The eateries will be swapping locations, with Gumbo Bar moving into the larger neighboring space at 2107 Postoffice and becoming Little Daddy’s Gumbo Bar, the company’s first franchised concept and second location. Once the move is complete, Sky Bar will be re-opened in the original Gumbo Bar location at 2105 Postoffice.

History and a Heck of an Egg Cream
Star Drug Store's menu is terrific diner fare, and the burger our counter mate ordered just begged to tried. The hubby's malt came in a perfectly cold glass and the flavor garnered his high praise. I went with the Egg Cream, one of those things I'd heard about occasionally, but never had occasion to try.

Old World Style Being Served at Shearn’s
Maybe I'mshowing my age (which is younger than you might think, actually), but I long for the days when chateaubriand was cared tableside and you sank into deep, clubby chairs. Call it the influence of too much Mad Men and Catch Me If You Can, since I have absolutely zero first-hand knowledge of such times

DINING DIVA: Jimmy’s on the Pier
We decided to experience Jimmy’s on a cold, gray and windy morning, because we thought the fisherfolk crowd would not be there yet. Indeed they were not, but the dining folk got there before we did. We walked in to a busy and shiny-new venue, billed as “Galveston’s only ‘above the waves’ experience.”

King Cake for Mardi Gras
By now, those of you who've read this blog before know that I grew up in Rhode Island. I can tell you about seafood and I can tell you about obscure feast days celebrated by Italian-American Catholics in southeastern New England. King cake and Mardi Gras? Well, maybe not so much.

Large-Scale Culinary Creativity
Chef Brian Robertson is late. But it's not his fault. Blame it on the people who kept stopping him as he made his way from the kitchen to the dining room, all badgering him with questions about menu items, event planning and the other issues that come up when you're the guy in charge of running the restaurants for the San Luis Resort and Conference Center.
