In Short
This bustling two-story eatery offers diners an excellent view of Surfer's Alley. The expansive upstairs deck is a prime attraction, but tables in the clubby interior aren't bad. A small lounge area next to an upstairs… Read Full Editorial
My Review by michelew1378731192 via Citysearch on 6/16/2014
My sons and I ate there for lunch yesterday (June 15, 2014), and we enjoyed our meal. My son had the burger/fries, and my other son had the grilled cheese sandwich/fries, and they ate almost all of what was on their plate. I ordered the…
Great Server/service!!! by williams and associates via Citysearch on 4/15/2012
My family and I are in Galveston on vacation and decided to stop by the Pleasure Pier construction and noticed the FishTales restaurant directly across the street. We stopped in only to be told the wait would be about thirty minutes. We…
GREAT Happy hour! by ashleylynn98 via Citysearch on 7/13/2011
We wanted good priced drinks and yummy appetizers, with an ocean view. This location fit the bill 100%. The Shrimp kisses=Heaven wrapped in bacon. I gave it a -1 star for being a chain location. There are several Landry's owned restaurants…
Bad Food by Ady M via Citysearch on 7/5/2011
This place might have nice views of the ocean but the food and service is terrible. My order had bites of rotted taste and my wife
This is a NO GO!!!!! by natashavaeaton via Citysearch on 6/30/2011
Please, if you are planning to visit Galveston and Fish Tales was going to be your choice for dining, DON'T! My husband and I were doing business on the island and afterwards decided to have lunch at this restaurant. We decided to eat…
Great variety, awesome view by amshorty via Citysearch on 5/26/2011
They have an amazing menu if you're a fish lover (which I'm not). I ordered the sliders and they were a little dry but much better than what I've had in some other places. My waitress was so wonderful. She was friendly and helpful and…
AVOID by mrkrabz via Citysearch on 2/26/2011
Why to avoid Fish Tales. Bad service and food.
Me and my mom went to Fish Tales expecting great, fresh seafood. We wasted our money. I ordered the red fish and my mom ordered the snapper. 20 minutes later, our food arrives, looks great…
BAD SERVICE by CourtneyMann via Citysearch on 6/28/2010
The group of 8 that I was with was referred to Fish Tails in Galveston for dinner. After a day at the beach we went to make our evening reservations. We decided while we were there to go ahead and get an appetizer before we headed to the…
Bad service by yshih via Citysearch on 8/31/2008
Tonight (8/31/08) we went to Fish Tales with the other 2 families for totally 9 people around 9pm. The waitress only gave us two straws and said the restaurant run out of straw. Then we asked for bread because kids were tired and hungry…
Avoid at all costs by onlygoodfood2008 via Citysearch on 8/5/2008
My very first review! Must have been bad for me to right this. The restaurant had an odor of arm pits as soon as we walked up the stairs to the 2nd floor. The chairs were dirty. I ordered stuffed flounder and the fish was not flaky as…
Sad experience..... by lopez2 via Citysearch on 8/5/2008
My husband and I wanted to treat our 9 year old son to a good sea food restaurant in our visit to Galveston last month. After summing for a few hours we ask about a good restaurant and some local suggested Fish Tales. We went there all…
What's wrong with ya'll by SharonDaugherty via Citysearch on 6/28/2008
We have been going to Fish Tales for several years and have always found the food and service GREAT!\r
We were there June 25 for my birthday about noon. JAMES our waiter could not have done more. The food was great and took no time at all.…
DO NOT EAT HERE!!! by cturner316 via Citysearch on 6/20/2008
With out going into details- Bad and rude service, long wait for food, below average food, small portions, very high prices, and watch your valuables.
Horrible. by jsbb via Citysearch on 6/1/2008
This is the first time to actually write a review, obviously it was horrible, for me to spend my time and energy to say so. We arrived at 9:45pm. We were promptly seated ( we were a party of 7), Red was our waitress. Service was…
Horrible Service, Mediocre food by 7RD13 via Citysearch on 5/31/2008
My husband and I ate here and were so disappointed. We went on a Wednesday...not a holiday, not a weekend. It looks like a fun place to eat. We were completely ignored when we walked in until we cornered one of the staff and she told us…
Favorite seafood by T. W via Insider Pages on 2/12/2008
Fishtales is a favorite place on Galveston Islands seawall for fresh seafood. We make it a regular stop when we are in Galveston. They have great seafood fresh from the Gulf. You have to give this one a try.
Overpriced Menu, Average Taste by Jennifer M via Insider Pages on 11/7/2007
My family and I were visiting Galveston during the summer, and everyone was hungry for dinner. Every restaurant on Seawall Blvd was packed. Since Fish Tales had a relatively short wait, so we went there to eat. Although the prices were…
Worst Service Ever! by superman93 via Citysearch on 3/15/2007
I brought my family and after we were seated we were asked to hurry up with our order. Chef came to the table and was very rude. Never will visit again.
Bsd service with just below average food by conniepip via Citysearch on 9/5/2006
The service was really bad. Had to talk to manager just to get a few condiments and our check. The food was just OK and the kids did not like their meals at all. It will not be on the list of places to eat next time.... No matter what time…
crowded, fun family spot by jr144 via Citysearch on 6/30/2006
seafood was really good. Although pricey, portions were huge. Service was ok. Upstairs patio with ocean view was fun. Good family atmosphere and big, happy crowd.
