Restaurants near Stauffer Turning Basin

Very nice alternative to cooking Thanksgiving meal. Was seated on time and our server was very attentive but not pushy. The entre was delivered a little too soon but that wasn’t a show-stopped for us. Will do this again next year.

Gaido is a Galveston institution- and our family eats there every time we are in town. Excellent service, delicious food and the warm ambiance of tradition is always a must. This time we had the raw oysters (in season) which were delicious and my husband appreciated the custom martini menu. We also never forget to order the pecan pie- which is famous for a reason! Great food, great memories and like always, we will be back….

This was our first time trying this place while we are here on vacation. Our server Joe was outstanding. The best service we have ever had . We ordered the Smoked boudin balls, Seafood Ceviche , and Prime Rib. 10/10 Also , there was a server named Landon there as well that was next to our section. He was awesome as well.

The entire meal was outstanding, Surf and Turf was great, perapred perfectly. Often the of this entree can be on the small side. The tail was 8-10 oz and cooked to perfection, not over cooked. The Ribeye cooked to an ideal med-rare and so large a section went home, something that seldom happens. The stuffed chicken was also great. The best part was the start, oyster Rockerfellers the best I’ve ever had and I order them often. Service was exceptional, from being attentive without intrusive, to making a great wine suggestion.

Nice sunset happy hour on the deck with excellent fried gulf shrimp and a well done Old Fashion!
