Katie's Seafood House - Galveston

From the moment we walked in, to the minute we walked out the service was superb! Our food was excellent....from the succulent shrimp in my blackened shrimp and macaroni and cheese dish, to the crispy golden fried shrimp and oysters, to the fabulous dessert.....everything was great! And Vernon, the waiter, gave such great service.....he made my sister's birthday special!!

Food was absolutely amazing! Atmosphere is great! Wish it was warmer outside so we could sit on the patio. Arnold was amazing! Very knowledgeable and a pleasure to have around! He definitely needs kudos for going way above and beyond. Because of him and the food we will definitely be back!

With Katie's fish market literally next door surely the best seafood on the island by far!!! Service was wonderfully warm, attentive, funny and knowledgeable. It's a bit loud if you sit inside but it's just the sounds of excited patrons enjoying the incredible seafood options. We had the seafood cuesadilla. It was so loaded with fish and shrimp it was awesome. Not overly cheesy, flavorful with an excellent chimichurri for dunking!! Wish I had taken a photo! The Ceviche, that I got a photo of! Was wonderful. Easily for two, it's full of seafood and gorgeous slices of perfect avocado. Delicious!! This might well be Galveston's best restaurant!!

His knowledge of the seafood options, preparation methods, and pairings was truly impressive. When I asked for a recommendation, Mark suggested the blackened Golden Tile, assuring me it was a house specialty. The dish, a testament to Mark's expertise, was nothing short of exceptional. The blackened Golden Tile was a succulent and tender piece of fish, seared to perfection, and seasoned with a flavorful blend of spices. The smoky, charred exterior provided a delightful contrast to the tender and delicate flesh within. The dish was presented with a side of perfectly roasted vegetables and a helping of creamy garlic mashed potatoes, both of which complemented the fish impeccably.

His professionalism and genuine passion for the cuisine were evident in every interaction. Mark's willingness to answer questions and provide detailed explanations about the dishes elevated our dining experience to another level. In addition to the main course, Katie's Seafood boasts a vast selection of appetizers, side dishes, and an impressive wine list. We indulged in a delectable shrimp cocktail as a starter, which was generous in portion and impeccably fresh. The tangy cocktail sauce added a delightful kick to the plump, chilled shrimp. The dessert options were equally enticing, but we decided to savor our meal's conclusion with a view of the sunset over the Gulf. The sun dipping below the horizon created a breathtaking backdrop to an already unforgettable dining experience. Katie's Seafood not only excels in its culinary offerings but also in its commitment to sustainability. The restaurant's emphasis on responsible sourcing and practices is commendable, and this dedication to the environment resonated with us.
