★★★☆☆ 3.0 Robert Richardson · Feb 2026

This place is in a perfect or prime location.Nice vibes easy going. Are waiter was 100% awesome, great very attentive. She new when to come around, and when to leave you alone and let you chill. The location is great right next to pleasure Pier plenty of people to see no experiences. now let's get to the food. I got shrimp and crab pasta it just happened to have sausage in it. Tell me why they look like they took a crab cake and just broke it up into pieces in the pasta. And I had more sausage than anythin. And the food was bland no taste at all. The drinks were good and if you order something fried that was good. I think the need to simplify the menu and not reach so much out of the wheelhouse I think they'll be okay. But should I come here again ? Yes and no I would go here if someone e

I most say Sarah was exceptional!!! This is what customer service should always be. Atmosphere was beautiful, watching the tide roll in . Food was delicious. Happy hour prices were phenomenal. I will be back !!!

It’s casual beachside dining, but the quality shines. Whether you’re lingering over specialty cocktails on the patio or sampling the chef’s seafood trio, there’s that comforting feeling that you’re being taken care of — by staff who know their menu and care that your plate reflects the best of the Gulf. While peak seasons can get busy (a good problem to have in paradise), the team’s genuine hospitality usually shines through, keeping the experience upbeat and welcoming....

★★★★★ 5.0 Ankita Lodh · Dec 2025

We went in with moderate expectations since this was right across from Pleasure Pier. But we were pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food. Most popular choices here are fried, but we went with lighter options. The caesar salad with salmon was a wonderful, fresh entree. The dressing was so nice and garlicky, and the salmon was cooked perfectly! The salmon was on the soft side and seasoned generously. The shrimp cocktail was also very good. We sat upstairs in the covered patio, and we got a nice view of the ocean.

We had a great experience at Fish Tales during Mardi Gras. The food was amazing, the coconut shrimp and fish tacos were really good. The atmosphere was cool with a coastal vibe. The food was a bit pricey but worth it. What really made our visit unforgettable, though, was our waitress, Celia. She was honestly the best ever! From the moment we sat down, she was warm, attentive, and genuinely kind. She made us feel so well taken care of. Her positive attitude and friendly personality made us sure we had to leave her a positive review. If you’re in Galveston and looking for great seafood and top-notch service, this is the place to go, and definitely ask for Celia if you can!
