Actually I was very skeptic about this place, my buddy said they had some good crawfish. Upon arrival there basically wasn't any cars in the parking lot and the building looked really run down. Inside was not really better, very old looking, also went to bathroom to wash up and there was an odor from the water. Thought I was in for a bad experience, but was totally surprised on how good everything was. Our waitress was very tentative and prompt and welcoming. We ordered spicy calamari, great amount of calamari and the hit of spice was detected. Fried nicely as well. I had the gumbo which the dark rue is how i like it, good amount of ingredients and the cup filled to the top that when putting the rice in it overflowed. Crawfish it was called curry style, was thinking there were going to be some hint of Indian flavoring, it wasn't. Though it was very delicious, very buttery/garlicky and another seasoning I couldn't put my finger on, but they were delicious. You can order more of their seasoning mix which we did and mixed it in the crawfish bag. Also 5lbs for $25 is a win. read more

Eight years is enough time for the unpleasantness I experienced with this place to pass. My mother and I went here earlier today after I ran an errand to fulfill her craving for crawfish. Given that it's the fifth Friday of Lent, I still have to keep abstaining from meat so I ordered a fried fish platter. The platter consists of two nicely battered fish (forgive me for not knowing what kind it is), an ample serving of fries, and a salad. Mom, of course, had her crawfish. I'm happy to report that we both were satisfied with our meals. Mine was about nine bucks, which was three bucks cheaper than what most churches' fish fry celebrations were offering. The kitchen staff wasn't stingy with the fish; the pieces I got were pretty huge. It occurred to me that I love fish and chips as much as the British do. The young lady who served us did an outstanding job. When I asked for a go-to cup to put my iced tea in, she offered to give me a whole new drink. There were many good things that stemmed from today's visit that I just had to update my negative review from 2017. read more

We stopped in for lunch while in town and wanted to try the local seafood. We ordered fish and shrimp with fries, keeping it light since we had work to do. The service was friendly and helpful, and the menu had plenty of seafood options. The decor was a bit dated, but the food was fresh, crispy, and served piping hot. Prices were very reasonable. We'll be back next time we're in the area to explore more options. read more

Came here randomly during my lunch break. This is definitely a hidden gem. Food was delicious. I got the 1 fish, 6 shrimp, gumbo and salad lunch special for $12.99. Big shout out to the lady that brought us our food. She started with our salad. Soon after that the gumbo. Than the entree all in that order 5 min apart. Will definitely be coming back when I'm in the area. Just an FYI.. I prefer my fish and shrimp flour battered. The shrimp comes that way already but the fish is a cornmeal batter. They had no problem me requesting the fish to be flour battered. read more

been here a handful of times and every meal we've ordered has been great so far. People will probably decide not to stop in at this establishment because of the older building, but has anyone ever heard of the saying, "Never judge a book by its cover!" ? Give these guys a try - you will not be disappointed! read more

Dickinson Seafood is always awesome. Their chicken fried rice always blows me away. The flavor is perfectly balanced, the rice has that just-right texture, and the chicken is tender with a smoky hint that keeps you coming back for another bite. It's comfort food done right, fresh, hot, and full of flavor. You can tell they care about what they serve. Can't wait to go back again. read more

Many times we come we get the 5 fish and 15 shrimp to share between 2 of us. It's more than plenty. I got the baked potato loaded and my son got onion rings, with both of us getting salad. The fish and shrimp never disappoint. Sorry forgot to take pictures. We will be back. The waitresses are always polite and friendly and attentive. read more

I wanted to give them 5 stars based on the food quality, but I couldn't. I was greeted as I walked to the counter"Dine in or carry out", type of thing. I stood at the counter looking over the menu. They serve butter lemon boudin. "Couriosity got the cat", I asked the cashier for a sample. She replied, "uhm I can give you a sample of the butter sauce", surely I declined. My arteries said- don't you do it. I ordered a 5 piece fried fish, W/fries and a salad for $10.99. The inside is huge enough to host 3 parties in my opinion. Oddly to me, the restroom is in the front near entrance. They have three TVs. Booths, and tables for dinning. It wasn't busy. So I didn't understand why a section was not clean. I saw three people behind the desk. One appeared to be a waitress, and she was sitting down using her cellphone. I ordered my food to go. It was ready in about 12 minutes. The peices of fish were big, fries-decent, salad-fresh. The fish was fried to a good crisp. Pretty tasty too. Even though the salad was made with only lettuce, it was fresh lettuce. I liked it. A dirty portion of the restaurant, when you're not busy, but you have three people behind the counter. Three stars. I will try them again. read more

Food was not good, cheese sticks appetizer was cold. Husband asked for a chicken po boy and the fries were cold and the chicken was clearly pre frozen grilled strips. We ended up going across the street to McDonalds for a better meal. Big thumbs down. read more

Food was good, BUT, the service was terrible, horrible, no good, very bad!! After church my mum and her friends took us out here to eat. First, we were the first to walk in, then this family behind us walked in. Our waitress seated them before she seated us. That was strike one! Second, we had ordered our meals and drinks. Our drinks came out, and the salad tasted fresh and crispy. But once our food came out, our waitress was rude and unprofessional. She almost dropped all of our meals, she was cursing at her the other waitress under her breath (I watched her) because she didn't have anywhere to place the server plate, then she handed out our food, but instead of doing it the right way. She hovered her arm on top of my mum's friend food. That is nasty and that is beyond rude!!! Second strike! Third, it only took us a few minutes to eat. Our waitress never came back to check on us, she never brought us our check, she disappeared. I figured she got scared for what she did, though that isn't no excuse to abandon us. We even asked the other waitress for a straw she gave us a straw, then we asked her for our check. Guess what, she never gave it to us. We were sitting there for about an hour waiting. And waiting. Nobody never showed up. We saw our waitress staring back at us, then helping another table. It wasn't even a lot of people in the establishment. Strike three! I even saw the people from the table behind us get up and walk out because their waitress brought out their drinks, but never came back to check on them nor take their order. These employees must not care, they must want their business to go down under. The cocktail sauce wasn't even cocktail, it looked like ketchup. It tasted like spicy ketchup. That didn't sit well with me. This is supposed to be a SEAFOOD RESTAURANT! Seriously, no cocktail sauce with horseradish?!!! That's crazy. At first, I did think this place would be way better than Baytown Seafood, but it was about the same bad service. I don't even know why people like bad service, OR they probably treat other ethnic groups better. I guess they don't like black people or they are biased. I don't know, but they need to change and change real quick. No matter what your race is a person should never treat others with disrespect. I will not be coming back to this seafood place. Even though, our food was tasty. The service blew my appetite to ONE STAR. read more

Its been some years since I've been there. Rolled up to the drive thru and said I' d like the three piece fish. She asked how many so I leaned in and just repeated three. She shouted at me not to shout at her! I used a calm voice. Guess it will be some DECADES before I try that hole again. Drove up the street to HARTZ chicken. Their fish isn't catfish but I've had bothing but kind service with a smile there and I've been hitting at least twicw lately. read more

Yesterday my friends and I decided to get some crawfish since they were raving about this seafood spot that has curry flavored crawfish. We decided to come here together. I was hesitated at first because I am a very picky crawfish person. Plus, crawfish is never cheap to begin with. I gave in and ordered 4 pounds. 2 lbs garlic butter and 2 lbs currry. The price market was $8.99 for Garlic and $7.99 for the curry. My other friends order almost additional 10 lbs for themselves. We waited roughly about 35 mins to get our order, which is understandable. When we got home, we went right in. Holy crap, it was so close to the LOWEST quality crawfish I have ever tasted in my life. THERE WAS ABSOLUTELY NO FLAVORS for the curry crawfish. NONE! It was basically plain crawfish. Then I decided try to the garlic, it is decent to where I would have to dip the crawfish in the sauce around it to get the flavor and it was barely any flavor. The garlic that they use was the pre-minced container ones. I basically wasted $40 worth of crawfish when I could spend it somewhere else. My boyfriend said the crawfish looked extra dirty that he wouldn't even suck the heads. Around 2 am that night. I had crazy stomache and I immediately knew it was from the crawfish. I'm sorry, this place is no bueno. Maybe for the folks that like Louisiana style- where it is salty, dry and unflavored. I'm just extremely disappointed. I low key wants my money back because it wasn't worth it. I normally eat FROZEN CRAWFISH at my favorites place in November to celebrate my birthday and even the price was $11.99 lb, it was absolutely worth it. read more

My fav place to eat grilled salmon & fried shrimp! The portions are big & their fried shrimp is the best. I crave their fried jumbo shrimp all the time, it has the perfect crunch. Our go-to menu items are the fried pickles, fried calamari, grilled salmon w/ fried rice, 3-6 piece fried or grilled shrimp & grilled veggies, and crawfish! Depending on my mood, I I like to drip the crawfish in their curry sauce, lemon salt pepper cajun seasoning, or ketchup-mayo. Love this place. The staff is very welcoming as well. Would highly recommend. read more

Dickinson Seafood - Fish, shrimp and fries with a salad - Seafood Near Me - Dickinson, Texas

My boyfriend & I come here all the time! We love love ordering the crawfish when it's in season because it is absolutely perfect! If you can tolerate spiciness, go for the spicy. But, if you want just a bit of spice, order the normal. The first time I came here, I wasn't a fan of it because the crawfish was small, bland, & not at all living the hype that I had been promised. However, I gave it another chance and I'm hooked! I even tried the salmon one day and it was tender, and perfect (without a doubt). However, our waiter was definitely slow. She took her time by giving us our drinks, (the third time mentioning them to her). She sat with some of the customers and sometimes, even ate with them! I understand you are supposed to get along with the customers, but not on such a comfortable level! She tried taking orders for EVERY SINGLE TABLE & so of course, forgot any other tables along the way. What are the other servers doing? For the food, I'd come back. For the service, not so much. read more

Everything was tasty and had good portions. We had grilled shrimp and fried fish platters with gumbo and salad. The kids meals looked and tasted just as good as ours. Our server was friendly and quick and kept tea glasses filled. We were pleasantly pleased with our bill, prices are very reasonable. Will definitely stop here again when we are in the area. read more

Large new seafood house on Westside of Dickinson. Clean, high ceilings, well lit, attractively appointed. Service seemed a little brusque, but I came in at an odd time (3:45pm for Sat. lunch.) Salmon was pretty good, not standout; reasonable value for the money. read more

This is another place where you have to rate it based on what it's meant to be. It's not going to hold up to a fancy fine-dining restaurant in star ratings, but it was never meant to be fancy fine dining. This is a dive seafood place, with fried and fresh seafood, and you just can't beat that. I admit the menu is, uhm, mixed eclectic, if there even is such a thing. I mean, boudin balls and eggrolls with fried catfish and frog legs... really? Fried rice and cornmeal catfish? Strange match there. But the cole slaw is really good and fresh and cold and sweet and crisp--the creamy type, not the vinegary type. you can get some strange things for some folks, like fried calimari (a fave of mine), fried pickled (a fave of my daughter) and fried gator, which is quite good! You can also get fried and sauteed frog legs! Yum! And in season, the crawfish boil is amazing. So the other night, we were at home, and I recently got out of the hospital, so we decided to order takeout. You always hesitate takeout at places that aren't 'fast food', because you never know how it's going to turn out. So I've attached a picture of the stuffed red snapper meal with the fresh veggies. The put clarified butter in a little container with a lid--it was beautiful butter. The fish was just gorgeous. For a takeout dish, i was truly impressed. Some of their items are priced perfectly--and some are expensive. They serve fried scallop (which I'd never had before--love scallops, but wasn't sure about fried ones--to me, the whole point of the scallop is to be sauteed and seared perfectly with that melt-in-your-mouth butteriness.)-- I have to say, fried scallops aren't bad. They are still soft and good, but I still prefer the sauteed ones to the fried. For takeout, they package things nicely. It's styrofoam, but it's packaged so things don't fall over and mix or ruin. They put liquids in bowl containers with lids and package cocktail and tartar sauce with the takeout. They take call in orders and you can pick up at the window without ordering at the first window. So if you're looking for some good fried or grilled fish, they have it for you! It's fresh, too, especially if you stick with the local fish like the red snapper and catfish. The tilapia was super good too. the breading on the fish works great, but on the shrimp and scallops, it tended to fall off. Flavor was okay too, though. All said and done, it's a decent place to eat when you're wanting some easy and cheap seafood or fried fish. Not bad at all! read more

The owners definitely took time to fix up the restaurant during mandatory Quarantine. They fixed up the place with new paint and took precaution to keep customers socially distant from each other! All servers had face masks on and was very polite to our group. The food have always been good, I've eaten here with my friends on the way to Galveston for some fishing when I am in town. Their crawfish is DELICIOUS! It really lives up to the hype, and you can ask for EXTRA EXTRA EXTRA Spicy. The Grilled salmon is awesome, my wife and her girlfriends always rave about it when we visit, so I got it for the first time - and loved it. I definitely would recommend this mom and pop restaurant to anyone and everyone. read more

Place is great !!!!!!! Delicious food and great environment. Everything is great. Favorite thing is salmon and 3 shrimp.

My parents moved down on 646 for over 2 years now and today I decided to take my mom out here for crawfish instead of traveling 45 minutes to Bellaire. We came in around 6pm and it's pretty empty, maybe 3 tables at the most. We were told to pick a table and be seated. The menu is fairly big and I opted for crawfish étouffée and 2 pounds of crawfish medium spicy. Crawfish étouffée: I felt it was too thick and not enough flavor. I probably won't reorder. This item came with a salad and it was fresh and crisp! Crawfish: to my surprise it was really good! I will totally come back. It was full of flavor and spicy level was just right (a bit spicy for many I will suggest) I am glad there's a crawfish restaurant around my moms side of town for me to take her out instead of driving down Bellaire. read more

Very unclean. I could never actually sit down and eat here. The bathroom was frightening but I couldn't hold it. No tissue and no soap on the bathroom, floors were dirty and I was just flat out afraid to touch anything. The food was decent but based on the uncleanliness of the place - I simply cannot come back here ever. Also, the lady at the welcome desk in the pink jacket seemed eager to take my order so she could get back to texting. Unprofessional! read more

Come for great crawfish of good flair and size. Shrimp have good flavor as cocktail. They were more than happy to provide spice in bowl and hot line water for cleaning fingers. Umm well service is mediocre. After explaining she is clocking in early she was slow. Good attitude but very slow. Did not come by till I was done eating . I will come back alone read more
