The toast of the Texas coast.How can frozen fish be called fresh? The answer for anyone with snap is simple: it can’t. That’s why Gaido’s is the classic choice for fresh Gulf seafood. Patrons know Gaido’s is real, when others are clearly not. From red snapper and blue crab to white tablecloths crumbed with panache, there’s no denying Gaido’s is one-of-a-kind in a world of imitation. Now, after four generations of filleting, frying, grilling and baking, Gaido’s has grown into the picture perfect place of traditions– birthdays, anniversaries, retirements, reunions. As the largest fresh fish house on the coast, Gaido’s can serve up to 2,500 happy diners a day. Plus, with the Pelican Club, private dining, catering, a new food truck and parking galore…it’s easy to see why Gaido’s -– for over 100 years – is truly the coastal classic.

    Always a wonderful experience. The family know how to present their delicacies. We had reservations for 8 PM Saturday. The four of us had: grouper, sea bass special, seafood risotto, and lasagna. The wine selection is great. I had an interesting white with my fish. The service is attentive and knowledgeable. I give this delightful restaurant my highest recommendation.

    I had resisted this restaurant because I got it confused with “saltgrass” and thought it was part of the chain. When my neighbor recommended it, I decided to give it a try and found it to be an excellent choice with delicious food. I had had some dental issues, and my server, Dave, was very accommodating. In fact, he was just delightful and efficient. I don’t live in Galveston but I can assure you, I will be back!
