In 1998, Buddy Guindon, his wife Katie, and his brother Kenny opened Katie's Seafood Market in Galveston, Texas. For more than 20 years now, Katie's Seafood Market has provided the highest quality of products available to its customers. The majority of seafood comes from local fishermen and shrimpers, including Red Snapper, Grouper, Golden Tile Fish, Flounder, Oysters, Shrimp, and Blue Crabs. A producer contacted Guindon in the hopes of doing a reality show about his family business. In 2015, the reality show 'Big Fish Texas' came to life on National Geographic. As a supporter of the local economy, In September of 2019, Buddy opened Katie’s Seafood House, next to the market. Katie’s seafood market supplies the restaurant with all fresh seafood. We take pride in being the only local seafood restaurant on the island that brings fresh fish straight from the boat and to your table.

    Katie's is always a must stop dinner place for us when we come to Galveston. At our most recent visit, the food and service was beyond compare. Temporary food restrictions meant I thought I was not going to be able to enjoy my most favorite dish - their caldo. Erin, Veronica, and the chef set to work coming up with creative and tasty solutions that produced a caldo that I could enjoy. Their kindness and commitment to excellent customer service was exceptional.

    We ordered oysters on the half shelf that we’re supposed to be charbroil they tasted like they were microwaved, then my husband ordered grilled jumbo shrimp dinner, shrimp were definitely not jumbo. I ordered shrimp étouffée not one of the best I’ve had had an odd taste to it. We did order cornbread as a side that was extremely good, the cornbread saved us from walking out of there hungry. Will not be going back! Or meal I was truly looking forward to. I was extremely disappointed!!!
