Upon arriving we had to step over a huge black dog to get to our table. Red flag 1. I ordered a dozen oysters on half shell. Website had one price but they said the were actually 6 dollars more since they said they haven't updated their website. Jose, the waiter rarely showed himself. When he brought our food he told us they were short on silverware and they were washing some. 10 minutes later after our food had gotten cold he finally brought us some. One member of our party did not receive her food until about 30 minutes after we had all finished eating our cold food. We had dirty dishes everywhere and Jose acted putout when I asked him if he could pre-bus the table and take some of the dishes. When we brought all these discrepancies up to the manager her attitude was somewhere along the line of so sorry, oh well! This place obviously caters to the local town drunks as it becomes a club after 10. It certainly not known for its food. I will never set foot in this establishment again. Anyone reading this, save yourself some trouble. Run away! read more

Great atmosphere and friendly service! The place my be understaffing in the kitchen? This was my second time there and the wait time for food is ridiculous! Greater than an hour on both occasions! The deck view is amazing and the patio outside with live music is incredible! But I'd go back! read more

I loved this place. On a slow day it's a nice get away. The crab stuffed jalapeños had a nice kick.

Good food. had the fried shrimp, coleslaw and mashed potatoes and it was all good. French fries were awesome as well.

Friendly staff, face masks, sanitizer, social distancing. The cold boiled shrimp, margaritas, and fried shrimp were excellent. Haven't dined out much since quarantine and felt safe here. Definitely recommend! *also would like to add, please be kind to waitstaff! They have nothing to do with new Covid rules, be understanding!! read more

The fish was ok. Nothing special. It is time to change the cooking oil. The onion rings are not eatable. No fresh brewed ice tea. No fountain drinks. The Tabasco sauce is cut with something. It's very watery. It's like they are squeezing every penny they can out the place. Service was okay. But good service never makes up for bad food. Could be a great place to have a couple of drinks and enjoy the view. No music. read more

Service was exceptionally slow. We sat for over 30 minutes before they took a drink order. The food order took more than 45 minutes. The food was delicious but will not return because of poor service. Plus table next to us remained dirty the entire time we were there. read more

Absolute joke of an establishment. I feel terrible for any future customers. For starters, you have the most miserable employees I've ever met. The attitudes were disgusting. We waited over an hour just for our drinks. Half of the food. When we finally decided to go inside and ask for an update, our server was sitting at the bar having a jolly good time with the bartender. She then tells me "Oh we don't have the alcohol for some of the drinks you ordered, I don't even know if you got any drinks yet." What? I ask for the tab and she sits back down at the bar. We ask for the manager. Manager never came out. How can I put this nicely? Y'all suck and I can't understand how this place is still open. read more

Due to recent negative reviews, I had zero expectations on being seated in a timely manner as well as expecting to be forgotten about once seated. I guess management wanted to see a change because we were seated pretty quickly (it was a Friday night so I was surprised by that) and the waitresses checked on us several times. Wasn't too impressed with the food but we had a great time and enjoyed the live music. read more

Attentive servers and excellent view. Hubs had the fish tacos and I had the turkey club, huge portions and reasonably priced! Neat downstairs area with swings and games. Has beach access! read more

Located right on the beach and the atmosphere was good. Food was not anything I'd crave and want to go back for. The mozzarella sticks and sauce were good (asked for ranch and was brought tartar sauce multiple times), the shrimp poboy with onion rings was just ok and the Chipotle shrimp pasta was extremely bland- not even a hint of chipotle whatsoever. 2 stars for the location and mozzarella sticks, otherwise a 1 would suffice. read more

As we pulled up, there were three police officer vehicles breaking up a fight outside. That should have been our first clue to move on but we were hungry and chalked it up to drunk tourists. Upon entering, this place is a combo tiki bar, strip club, head shop. The female staff members were barely clothed. Tables were dirty, stuff was dripping from the ceiling while we were eating, and they charged $3 for water. There are fun dollar store decorations hanging and you can have CBD added to any drink for a nominal fee. If that isn't enough, there's a whole display counter of CBD products available. When my burger arrived the server looked confused when I asked where all burger toppings were. "Oh, did you want those?" He asked with every ounce of sincerity. Um... yeah. Sure did. The food was ok but the fries were really good which is the only reason this gets an extra star. Surfside really could do a LOT better for their visitors. read more

Wow, even with the limited menu and SD seating this place is amazing. First, our waitress Veronica was super. Very helpful and quick to provide great service. The oysters on the half shell were some of the best we've ever had. The fried boudin balls were so tasty. The kids had hamburgers and devoured them (be careful they fry and chicken and french fries in the same oil as the shrimp... yikes if your kid has a seafood allergy). Sent back the friend jalapeños stuffed with crab; cold and not very good. We ordered a Miami Vice - A+, Hurricane - B and a SOB -B. They ran out of pina colada so only one MV. Can't wait to come back once restrictions are lifted to enjoy the full effect. read more

The worst restaurant to go too in Freeport probably the only good thing about it is the view and the tea that you can buy at bucces, don't recommend the chicken tenders either taste like Microwaved chicken read more

Server was very slow she forgot my moms food we have to wait 20 minutes for her meal to come we sal to speak with the manager but no one never come to our table I will never come back again read more

I am in town for the holidays and decided to give this place a try with some friends. Terrible service. Drinks took around 30 minutes to come out and there were maybe 5 tables in the whole restaurant. Server never came to our table to check on us, it took 15 minutes to even get greeted. But, the downstairs spot is a great place to hang out. Loved the sand volleyball, service just makes it not worth it. read more

Pecan mahi and fish tacos were delicious. But the real star is the service and view. Brittany was our server and perfectly attentive with wonderful recommendations. The owner was on hand along with chatty locals. You can't beat the ocean view! read more

About what you'd expect from a beachside/tourist restaurant. The staff was super friendly, the view from the outside patio great, and I enjoyed the oysters and my meal. I didn't see much creativity in the menu, but as I said, it wasn't unexpected. read more

Not impressed at all. Didn't have dressing for turkey and dressing! Sour faces from all employees. Took forever to get food and the whole place was dirty. read more

Overpriced drinks, same as most places here, reheated frozen seafood. Relies on captive tourists, and takes advantage of them as well

The food tasted as if it had been in the freezer too long and they just popped it in the microwave and then fried it. Even my four year old didn't enjoy her food. It's nice for just a drink but not for eating. read more

Just f**king awful, waited for service for 15 minutes, they were too busy taking selfies outside than worrying about their patrons. Didn't bother to stay, but didn't even get talked to while we were leaving. Avoid if you can read more

Good place to eat lunch/dinner and have some beverages. Right on the beach - has sand volleyball, swings, and a huge Adirondack chair for photo opportunities! read more

Was sat and waited a solid 15 minutes and not a single server approached us. Terrible service

Good service, food was very good as well. The oysters on a half shell were fresh and large, especially for less than $20 per dozen. I would also recommend the fried jumbo shrimp and fries, all good stuff. Specialty cocktails can be a dice roll and usually the fruity drink menu is straight sugar and mixers. The pineapple margarita was not over sweet and was a great mix of tequila and flavor. Definitely coming back. PS. Bathrooms are a bit dicey, but it's the beach, get over it. read more

Food was ok, service was about average, but the place seems a bit dirty. It could use a good deep cleaning.

Burger and Onion Rings were very good. Great view. Managers kept checking on us as well as our waitress

Food wasn't good, servers were rude. The view was okay but I am certainly not coming back.

Three different margarita flavors and not one was offered frozen ... Apparently they were sold out. Quite disappointing. The waitress was nice. The French fries were okay. Definitely do not recommend the blackened catfish, the amount of salt on the one I was served was harsh. read more

First off we get there and table was dirty. After sitting there we finally got a waitress to get our drink order. I along with a friend ordered an alcoholic drink. We basically waited 45 mins for a beer and a margarita. I got my margarita and my friend still had to wait for her beer. When she finally got her beer it was hot. No one likes a hot beer so she politely got up and went to the bar to ask for a colder one. She came back and was like they're bringing me another one. Well the waiter comes back and states "the bar manager is refusing to serve you". We didn't ask questions just said ok. We finally get our food. It was not all that good. It wasn't even hot to begin with. The service was horrible and it was not busy at all. I do NOT recommend this place. read more

Took the family here to enjoy wi views and time. Service was nice view was more then worth it. Foo more then I'd like to spend but the area it's makes since good at sunset time for a deck dinner and food was meh but I'll do it again read more

Beachfront Deck Bar & Grill - Fried Red fish , extra crispy! I give this a 10! - Bars Near Me - Surfside Beach, Texas

Absolutely the worst. We were considering a chose of this restaurant or Seahorse Bar and Grill. Unfortunately we made the wrong choice first time. I ordered Chicken Fried Steak - all I can say is don't. It was thin and tough and they didn't even have a knife for me to cut with. Coleslaw was warm. My friend noticed she was charged $2 for water. She was told it was bottled water, however she was not brought the water bottle to open and pour herself or even advised she would be charged for water. Waitress was dressed in skimpy, trashy clothing. I would highly recommend going to the Seahorse Bar and Grill. On the beach and in the same area. read more

Adding the service fees for using credit cards, and other things are not right .I have a retail business and I cannot charge extra for using a credit card. There were people with me that suggested we leave less tip that's going to hurt the servers. read more
