Danny L.

Great crawfish with excellent flavor--definitely some of the best in the area. The seasoning was spot on and the food overall was really good. The only downside was the service; we had to flag down the waitress a few times whenever we needed something. That said, the quality of the food made up for it, and I'd still come back for the crawfish. Awesome and probably the best priced crawfish in the area as well.

Classic spot for a vibes and drinks. A hotspot for crawfish. Arguably one of the best spots for it here. Service was also friendly

Jumbo lump crab cake
Kelley B.

The Barge has improved so much since the change in ownership and management. The service is great, and the food is excellent. We tried the shrimp stuffed basket, and everything was really good. The inside has also been updated -- it looks much cleaner and brighter.

Oysters were amazing best I've had service was mid but it was late so gotta give them a break

Small bushwacker.

Came here for lunch and the burger did not disappoint! Got a bushwacker with it. Literally the perfect lunch on a hot day! The service was great, the waitress was very attentive!

Crab cake, Coconut shrimp, Laguna tacos
Rylan H.

Unique location and great view. Great service for the lunch rush understaffed. We got the famous crab cake which held up its reputation. Coconut shrimp as the app were very good as well. The fried Laguna tacos were well dressed and tasted fresh!

Lobster roll
Abby C.

Came to eat here after fishing since they have a boat dock. The lobster rolls were great! And the kids loved their chicken and fish.

Lonnmmggggggg freaking lines
Charlene P.

Came here to watch some amateur fights. Lines were ridiculous. Literally one waitress for two lines that were 25 people deep. I'll report later in the drinks if we ever get served.

Barge 295 has the best crab cake you will ever have. The entire rest of the menu is also fantastic, the boudin nachos are my 2nd favorite to the best crab cake you will ever have. Service is always great, obviously can't beat the location and view - or the crab cake.

View off top deck

Service was impeccable. Fast and curtious, drinks came right away . The atmosphere is so cool. If you're a sea person, this is highly recommended. Not much decore but it's like an pirates bar type of eatery. The top deck is the nicest. Food was delicious. Definitely a coming back again.

We took a drive down from Houston to hang out by the water. We saw online this restaurant was on a barge, so had to go have a look. We sat on the top floor over looking the water which is really calming. We split the 295 oysters they were sooooo good, the Melted cheese and artichoke went so well with the cooked oyster. The we split the po boy which was also fantastic. We were not given a drinks/cocktail menu which would have been nice, our server was ok we were never given silverware and she didn't come back for a while after taking the first part of our order but we still had a good experience and would recommend.

They offer AYCE snow crab legs and shrimp! Their Tuesday special from 6-9 pm. A friend recommended this place so I decided to take the family out to support them and my belly. You can choose to sit wherever available, I recommend the top deck. Restaurant sits right on the water so there is a really nice view. Our server was super friendly and helpful. Food took a while to come out but it was made fresh. Ordered the kids the fried fish basket and two dozen oysters for the adults. They also full bar as well! If you enjoy crab legs and shrimp like I do, I say it's worth the money. They also offer different specials each day, so will definitely come back and try the rest of their menu. Come show your support if you're in the Seabrook/Kemah area

Shrimp Po'Boy was yummy
Cat H.

Great atmosphere for a beer and tacos. Prompt service and has a nice view of the water. However the tortilla chips were a bit hard and the warm salsa was spicy and lacked sweetness of ripe tomatoes. Will be back for the fish and shrimp baskets and their crispy fries.

Tookie's has been a longtime hamburger joint for the Clear Lake/Seabrook area. It's survived moves,…read morehurricanes, floods - it's an institution! I've been coming here for many years and my most recent visit reminded me why it's stuck around for so long. We came in for lunch on a weekday. While there wasn't a wait, it was still fairly busy with tables moving in and out. The setting is super casual - laminated menus are at the table for use. Our server this time was Kayla, who was super friendly and efficient. I normally go for the Squealer, which is almost a standard burger with lettuce, tomato, and pickles; however the burger patty is sprinkled with bacon throughout. Can you imagine just how great that smells and tastes!? The rest of the table ordered that, but this time I decided to venture out. I went for the Rodeo Burger (Southern), which comes with bbq sauce, bacon, jalapeños, cheese, and topped with their Hula Hoops (onion strings). The burger was SO BIG when it came out, they had to place the top bun next to the burger. I struggled to fit this one into my mouth, as it was so big. But delicious! The patty was juicy and all of the toppings brought the southern flavor together well. For sides, we got the Fried Mushrooms, Onion Rings, Tater Tots, and Sweet Potato Fries. Super healthy, I know. But so dang good. Everything was crispy and steaming hot as you bit into it. All of the sides are very reasonably priced - the mushrooms were under $7 and the rest were even cheaper than that for generous portions. Our table of 4 struggled to finish these, as we were already pretty stuffed from our burgers. I will always appreciate Tookie's for a solid burger in the Clear Lake/Seabrook neighborhood. Aside from the burgers, don't sleep on the amazing patio that looks out to the Kemah marina if the weather is nice!

Why 5 stars? Because this meal really hit the spot…read more --- --- --- I've had Athena's bookmarked for a while now, as my parents live in Friendswood, and thought this would be a great place to try when visiting them. The stars finally aligned and I was able to meet them here recently. My mom wanted to order some dolomades to start off, and I'm not really a big fan, so I just figured those would be all her. But she offered to let me try one, and I can easily say that these were the best dolomades I've ever had. She agreed. I have no idea what they do to make these not taste so "sharp" like they usually do, but these were really unbelievable. For my appetizer, and I went with a beef/lamb gyro and it was everything you want in a gyro. Soft pita bread, non-gamey meat and everything in between. The greek salad that came with it was pretty underwhelming, but I ordered a side of greek fries too, and those were what I was hoping they'd be. We finished off by ordering a few desserts to share. I went with the strawberry cheesecake as the one I was mostly focused on, and loved it. This is definitely not a frozen cheesecake - they make them in-house and it's obvious when you take your first bite. I understand why Athena's Corner has such great reviews and hope to be back!

I'm extremely happy with Seabrook Classic Cafe and highly recommend supporting this restaurant!…read more My first experience here was actually during a pretty stressful situation. My vehicle broke down at the dock at Lakeside Yachting Center during a storm, and I couldn't find a tow company willing to come get me. I ended up being stuck at the dock overnight. The staff at Seabrook Classic Cafe were incredibly kind and let me come in to charge my phone while I figured things out. I was very hungry, so I ordered their egg sandwich, and it was fresh and delicious. Even though I live about an hour away, that experience made such a good impression that I came back later to try more of their menu. I'm happy to say everything else I tried was just as good. The stuffed jalapenos were excellent, very flavorful and stuffed with crab and cheese. I also ordered the chicken fried chicken, which was great, especially with their toast. The fruit bowl was fresh, and of course I had to get another egg sandwich, which was just as good as I remembered. They even brought us a complimentary slice of carrot cake, and it was fantastic. I'll definitely be coming back again to get more of that carrot cake, and next time I'd also love to try their prime rib. Our server was very friendly, and I really enjoyed the ambiance of the restaurant. It has a cozy, retro diner feel that makes it a great place to sit down and relax. This restaurant has absolutely earned my business. Even though I live an hour away, I make multiple trips to the South, and I'll definitely be stopping here often!

This place is straight-up amazing -- especially the service…read more Food: The Boudin Benedict? Absolute fire. Don't be fooled by the simple presentation... this thing hits hard. Flavor for days. Atmosphere: Classic small-diner energy -- cozy, old-school, the kind of spot that feels like it's been part of the neighborhood forever. Service: Katelyn was the star of the whole show. Sweet, sharp, hilarious -- she took the experience from "good breakfast" to "yeah, I'm definitely coming back." Word on the street is there are three Katelyns working here, so do yourself a favor and ask for the one pictured below. Trust me.
