First...service was very welcoming and friendly. And the food was outstanding! I had the stuffed flounder roll...delicious. Plus, the Lobster Bisque. Only challenge...portions so big and food so good...I may have eaten too much! Definitely recommend this place!! read more

This Resturant is such a hidden GEM! Seriously, I was very nervous coming to eat here because of how inexpensive their menu was. The service was some of the best I've seen. Kindness, attention to details, good attitudes, etc. They have a little bit of everything for everyone. The one thing that took me off guard was that you order at the front of the restaurant, but that allows the servers to provide much better service to the tables. My group of 9 had appetizers, drinks from the bar, and all of our food within 15-20 minutes. Unreal. If I lived nearby I would be taking a lot of people here. Nice work coastal grill! read more

Excellent service with delicious food and people are so friendly. Good ambiance and great drinks.

I stopped by here yesterday with my family for dinner. We didn't actually eat inside the restaurant but instead had beers across the street. Coastal Grill allows you to call in a to-go order and they'll deliver your food right over to you, which is awesome. My wife called in our order, and a short time later our food arrived. For dinner on this day I decided to go with the crawfish tail po' boy. It came served with lettuce, tomato, and remoulade sauce on a toasted bun. When I opened my to-go container, I had to admit that it looked good. There was so much crawfish that it was constantly spilling out, and I ate a bunch that had escaped. The sandwich itself tasted great, with the crawfish lightly fried and the remoulade sauce adding a nice tang. I ended up finishing the whole thing and only wished there had been a little more sauce to balance out the bread. Our family's order also came with a large amount of onion straws. They were quite good, thinly sliced, nicely breaded, and still crispy. They would have been excellent with a little more salt, but since our table at the brewery didn't have any, that's just more reason to eat inside the restaurant next time. The bottom line for me is that I would head back here again in the future. My whole family enjoyed our meal, and those onion straws especially had great potential. read more

Went in again as we thoughtit was just average last time Did not enjoy the snapper. It was dry and didn't taste fresh. I didn't do the sauce. Sure it would of masked the flavor. Gumo wasnt great either again. read more

Coastal Grill - 8 oz New York Chimichurri and Bunless Brisket Burger. - American Near Me - Galveston, Texas

Sounds (Coastal Grill) and feels (wooden, ship-like interior) like a seafood place but they have a diverse menu, to include kabobs, gyros, and burgers. Everyone's (about 15 of us) food looked great and I loved my snapper tacos with sweet potato fries. The guys working were all very friendly and checked up on us, but didn't rush us. You order at the front but they bring the food to you. Nice drink selection too. I definitely recommend this place! read more

Coastal Grill - Cajun snapper tacos (3!) with SP fries and a great chili-ish sauce. - American Near Me - Galveston, Texas

I'd heard many good things and was excited to try this place, but likely will not be back. It's cute inside, a cozy nautical vibe to it. You order cafeteria style and they bring your food/drinks to the table. The drinks- just looking at the cocktail menu was not a good start, then seeing what a couple others got further disappointed. I went with a cosmo thinking that was simple enough and it was just okay. Not bad, not great. Super basic options. The food- actually all really delicious but I thought the tuna stack and mushrooms were a bit overpriced. The fish taco was a good deal though; I expected street taco size and it's bigger than that. I didn't try the scallops but took a photo and was told they were excellent. We also had the chips and hummus plate. That was tasty as well. All in all, an enjoyable evening but not up to par with what I prefer on several levels. If you just want some seafood to-go, this would be a good place for that. read more

I wasn't expecting this place to be as good as it was. Wowzers!! A pretty readable menu and including vegan options with huge portions. Grilled vegetables: tomatoes, onions, squash, zucchini, potatoes, paired on a bed of white rice covered in some garlic sauce. It cannot get anything better than that! Absolutely delicious and fulfilling. The service was great; the staff are so good looking and attractive which goes well with good delicious food. Nice clean restaurant and the atmosphere was welcoming too. 10 out of 10; a win win in my book! read more

I really enjoy the Mediterranean dishes here and have dined in person previously. This time, we ordered takeout from coastal grill and food still arrived hot! Fries were crispy and flavorful and the kebab did not disappoint. I really enjoyed the flavor of the sweet potato puree and only wished the dish came with more! Beef and veggies were also very tender and not overcooked. There are a lot of menu options at coastal grill at affordable prices and they're a great choice for a large group with different tastes. read more

We traveled into town wanting a nice meal with excellent service. That- exactly what we found at Coastal Grill! The food above average. The service way above average! David and Sergio were very kind and patient. This place will be on our list everytime we come to the island. Thank you David and Sergio!!! read more

My husband was giving me the side eye when we pulled up to this establishment because the outward building is nondescript....but inside it's nicely decorated and classy with beach vibes. They have a full service bar and an extensive menu. We were promptly seated by a friendly server, who quickly took our orders. We hardly got the kids situated when our orders arrived steaming hot and ready to eat. There was a wide array of reasonably priced food options to choose from. The portion sizes are generous. We ordered grilled cheese + fries, grilled ahi salmon with onion strings, fried pickles and veggie plate for me. There are several vegetarian options or platters that can be modified for vegans. Everything was delicious. Definitely stop in to eat for quick, friendly service and delicious food! PS- loved the 80s music playing too! PPS Alma was our amazing server! She was lovely. read more

We came here twice on our recent Galveston trip! Needless to say the food was excellent both times! I know there are alot of wonderful food choices in Galveston, but the quality of food for the price was worth it and above some of the others we tried. The concept here is very simple. Walk indoors (wheelchair and stroller friendly) and place your order at the counter. You can order everything at once or you can be like us and order drinks w/apps while you ponder the menu. Tip: I recommend you take a picture of the specials menu before you seat yourself. Theres some amazing options! Truly high quality. My son had the grilled shrimp and they were some of the best shrimp Ive had. If you love shrimp, I highly recommend that one. It's a blessing to get fresh Gulf Shrimp! Service is wonderful too! read more

I recently spent 5 days in the Houston/Galveston area. The food for the most part was a positive experience. For our last evening in Galveston we chose the Coastal Grill for dinner; this was by far our best meal during our entire trip! The setting is very casual but you are warmly greeted after entering, then seated at your table and given menus. Once you've made your selection, you return back to the front of the restaurant to place your order and your food is brought to your table. The menu offers plenty of options, they have a full bar, and the desserts looked amazing! I'm not sure about parking as we arrived by ride share. Our entrees of choice were: the coastal shrimp platter which was on special and the mahi-mahi....both DELICIOUS! Ever morsel was perfect, flavorful, fresh, and left you wanting the next bite! Will definitely visit again next time we are in the area! read more

Six star rating in my book !! I think this is now one of my favorites on the island. Came for a late lunch on a Saturday after museum touring. WOWZA, food was sooo good! We had Chicken and Beef Kabob plates - presentation and flavor was amazing. Chicken was so soft and juicy. Beef cooked to perfection! Service was excellent and place is very clean. Lots of menu options. Highly recommend if you want a satisfying meal . read more

Affordable, casual, and fun place to eat for groups of all sizes! Lots of choices for food, from American to seafood to Mediterranean. There's also a wide variety of cocktails and drinks! You order at the register and they bring out the food to your table. Had the fish and shrimp tacos, which were huge and filling. The fish was cooked well, as was the shrimp. It can get loud inside, but there's a ton of seating options within 2 large rooms. Free parking too read more

Coastal Grill - Strand Fish Taco - American Near Me - Galveston, Texas

A little ways off the main strip in downtown Galveston but worth the stroll. It doesn't look that special on the outside but don't let that fool you. The food is full of flavor and there are lots of choices to satisfy everyone. The portions are large too. The meals are a la cart so if you want a side you have to order it separately. You order at the front and they bring it to you. I loved the veggie side, they were grilled and soooo good. I wish I got the green beans too because they looked great too. They serve everything from gyros to fish plates. And the service is great too. read more

Wow! I ate here for the first time today. The food was so fresh and had such a great flavor. Our server, Hermes, was one of the kindest and most attentive servers I've ever had. I highly recommend checking out this place! read more

The fish tacos were the best ever. The service was great, the sangria was amazing and the prices were reasonable. We'll be back!

Great food, great service, very clean. Had the red fish, po-boy and the calamari. Calamari was one of the best I have had. Fresh ingredients, hot food and amazing taste. Entire staff was very friendly. The homemade sangria is worth trying. read more

We had lunch here Tuesday, we had the tacos - chicken avocado, coastal shrimp, and strand fish - and loved them so much we came back for lunch today for more of the tacos! Before we left we took home the shrimp gumbo for dinner and LOVED it. This is my favorite place to eat when I'm fortunate enough to be in Galveston and I make it a point to come here at least once each trip. read more

Their stuffed flounder and redfish was super. The staff were excellent. They are definitely on the radar for our next dinner out in Galveston. They are highly recommended. read more

Walking into this place will impress you as you notice the menu for their daily specials, their extensive bar and their great selection of wine choices. However, as for their beer choices, everything is served in a can of bottle, there is no draft and there's not much in the way of craft beer. The only thing that seems out of place, is the fact that you have to order your entire meal and drinks at the counter, instead of having a waitress. However, I can live with that, because it seems to keep their prices low, making them one of the best deals on the strand. They have $5 mixed drinks from11-5:30 which are better than you expect. The other thing they have going for them is ample seating, which means you probably won't have to wait too long for a table. We started with the grilled scallops on spinach which were seared perfectly. I had the fish and chips daily special and I was surprised how much fish was included. The wife had the veggie kebab which was perfectly cooked over a bed of rice. However, for some reason they added oil to the kebab, which was unnecessary. Once you check out our bill and the photos below, you'll be making your plans to come here just as we did. read more

I have one very serious gripe about this place. It's closed on Sunday, so I can't go everyday ! The owner Sammy (think that's his name) knows his stuff and runs a tight ship. The crab cakes LITERALLY changed my life. read more

Coastal Grill - The reviewer - American Near Me - Galveston, Texas

100 percent do not recommend. Have to pay before get you food then it came out with a tuff ribeye and rotten lobster.

Best food & bang for the $$ on the Strand!!! We have been coming for years to Galveston and this is the best place we have found on the Stand. Great selection of craft beers and shear able food. read more

Excellent service, however; food missing that "Tender, Loving, Care" ingredient! Foods need to prepared as ordered. Very hard to complain because of excellent service by Alma. read more

I really loved this place! I'm not kidding they have the best customer service I've ever experienced. I went with a group of fourteen people and they were incredibly kind and efficient. The food was amazing, had great flavor, and came out very fast. I would definitely recommend you visit the spot if you are in the area! read more

Coastal Greek is still one of my favorites on the island! They're food had stayed consistently good and decently priced since they opened. I noticed they're working on a patio area with a stage and I can't wait to see what they do with that! As always thank you for the awesome food and service I can't wait to come back!! read more

Solid in every way. The service is friendly and professional, the food is uniformly well prepared, there is variety, literally something for everyone, and the prices are easy on the budget. So many times on various local pages, the question of where to go comes up. We have kids, we have seafood haters, we have seafood lovers, we have vegetarians or vegans, we have folks with limited mobility, and so on. This is your place. It's a casual order at the counter format and your food is brought to you, but that food you get is fancy! Whether you dine in, pick up your vittles, or opt for delivery, you can't go wrong. Love me some Coastal Grill! read more
