    December 25, 2024: Merry Christmas! We had the best Clam Chowder ever and delicious Fish and Chips with four large pieces of crispy battered fresh fish on a pile of French Fries. (We split that and glad we did!) Fast efficient service with a well-trained waitress. We had a harrowing drive through Houston and thought the day was ruined. Eating here (with reservations!) redeemed the day and turned around a bad situation. Remember, three or more mega ships depart from here so make reservations as far in advance as you can. We got there at 5PM and a few tables were empty. By the time we left, an hour later, there was a long list waiting for a table.

    First of all, thank you so much Fisherman's Wharf for being open on Christmas day! Upon arrival for our reservation, we were welcomed by a wonderfully upbeat Host, quickly seated and then served by a gracious and attentive Server named Kaitlyn. The food and drinks were top tier! The whole experience from start to finish ran like a well oiled machine! Kudos to your staff! They were outstanding!! Merry Christmas and a very happy and prosperous 2025!!

    Love that I had a place to go for Christmas. The staff was enthusiastic offering suggestions, and the view was perfect. I ordered the Salmon with a salad and veggies. I wasn't impressed with the Presentation.. especially for the price.. BUT, everything else was wonderful.. So if you're not one who minds getting "a plate of food" for $38.. compared to an art piece to wow you...then this place is perfect.. If you care about how it looks, and the way it makes you feel for the money you're dropping.. then maybe try Katie's seafood house a couple doors down instead..

    If go on s slow sunday you have families with lots of kids running around. Probably should have went more upscale and avoided the loud kids. My fought. Food was average. Redfish was bland.

    First time - great experience. Had the shrimp kisses. (Bacon wrapped, cheesy shrimp) they were outstanding. Entree was the crab-stuffed tilapia. Also an excellent dish. Topped it off with the house specialty root beer bread pudding. The service was also great. Garrin did a fantastic job taking care of us. Highly recommended!
