Alfonso Salazar, better known as “Dirty Al” originally started shrimping as a young man with his father and 6 brothers. In 2003, he and his youngest son, Cameron, who graduated from Culinary School, transformed his bait stand into a restaurant where together they have been known for having “The World’s Best Fried Shrimp”! In 2005, his other two sons returned home to help grow the business. To this day, they now own 7 restaurants on beautiful South Padre Island and across the valley and continue to bring only the “best” Gulf Seafood to each customer’s table.

    Nice dinner but I feel like it’s over priced for the quality of food you get.

    Overall, everything was great with a couple exceptions. There were six of us, the waitress forgot one of our entrées. Gave no discount not even an apology for forgetting the entree. She brought one the entrées out before we were done with our soups & salads. Then she hit me up for more tip. I tip before the tax, 18%, she literally told me I didn’t tip enough, because she was figuring the tip after the tax. Pretty tacky.

    We had a good time, service was good. Place seems dirty and cluttered. We have been coming for years seems like it’s going down in. Restaurant Has a funny spell when you come in. And I left serval messages regarding me reservation and I never got a returned call.

    We each enjoyed the red snapper - two different recipes. Both were excellent. The ceviche was VERY good. Exceptional service. Our waiter, Alex, was very friendly and attentive. There wasn’t a crowd, so there wasn’t much of a wait. The sunset was a plus! Gorgeous. After trying other places on the island all week, it was by far the best food.

    Oh my, Liam's might just be my favorite steakhouse in Texas. We ordered the Oscar Filet Mignon and the Stuffed Flounder, both were cooked to perfection. Their Ribeye Guacamole is delicious; extremely well seasoned, yet not very spicy. We tried five cocktails, and they were all very well made. Highly recommend the Red Sangria with dinner and the espresso martini (don't remember the name, sorry) with dessert. As for dessert, their selection was beautiful, and the Key Lime Pie was amazing! Lastly, they had a photographer there to offer complimentary pictures, how wonderful!
