A tradition of excellence for over 92 years. Back in 1911 when S.J. Gaido first opened his restaurant, visitors often arrived by boat or on the old interurban line. The Gaido family's commitment was to make the trip worthwhile with the best in service and the finest in seafood.
Today, the trip to Galveston is much easier, but the service and cuisine of Gaido's restaurant remains the same. All of their seafood is meticulously inspected and prepared by hand.
They still peel shrimp, shuck oysters, and filet fish the old fashioned way as they have for the last ninety-plus years, and they're not about to change. All of their sauces, salad dressings, and desserts are homemade from Gaido's family recipes, using only the finest of fresh ingredients.
Four generations of Gaido's have committed themselves to excellence. Visit today and sample the famous oyster platter or have their snapper prepared any way you'd like. It's all waiting for you on Seawall Boulevard at 39th Street.
Seating is done on a first come, first serve basis. Sorry, reservations are not accepted.

Can't wait to return! | | Tiffanie | 8/14/2008 3:48:00 PM | I absolutley love this restaurant. I live in Houston. My husband and I make frequent trips to galveston just to eat here. Until eating at this restaurant my husband wouldn't touch any kind of fish, so thank you gaido's for changing his mind because I love seafood. I will definatley be back! | | Elizabeth Tunnell | 7/23/2008 11:30:00 AM | I love Gaido's!!! My mother recently moved from Galveston to Georgetown, TX. and I miss going to this fabulous restaurant when I would visit her. Absolutely the best seafood you will EVER have! If you visit Galveston, and not eat at Gaido's, you are really missing something... |  | Terri | 7/14/2008 5:12:00 PM | Visited Gaido's on 6-25-08. Never been more disappointed in my life. First, we made an effort to dress only to sit by a stinky family fresh off the beach. Second, tried to order mixed drinks and the bartender had no clue. No Red Snapper to be found. Ended up with Sysco style fried shrimp and runny mashed potatos. The kids enjoyed the bread. Gaido's is my Galveston vacation tradition. So disappointed... | | Neta | 6/2/2008 9:50:00 PM | Excellent, excellent, excellent! Unbelievable food and service. It's not a complete trip to Galveston for us without a visit to Gaido's - a favorite of ours for years. | | Lacey Sneed-Treadwell | 5/29/2008 9:45:00 AM | I was born and raised in Galveston (a BOI!) and have been enjoying Guido's for as long as I can remember. I moved from Galveston several years ago, but I still make a special trip a few times a year just to eat at this restaurant. It is simply the best seafood restaurant you will find in the south. | | ED MARTIN | 4/27/2008 6:10:00 PM | Simply the best seafood restaurant we have ever experienced. We live in West Texas and whenever we are in the area we will always make a point of again enjoying Gaido's. |
