This is a fantastic little cafe worth the drive from 288 if you're passing by. We went on a Sat. afternoon, plenty of parking and not crowed. BUT, I can totally see where they would get packed. It a nice island vibe with Rasta style music, a great pina colada (don't let the "it's not frozen" keep you from ordering it, trust). The fried shrimp are delicious, nice sized, the wedge is huge and the gumbo is pretty decent too. The cornbread, must! We got bread pudding to go based on all we tried today. I really enjoyed the mini escape which reminded me of some eateries in the Bahamas. You can never go wrong with that! Cost...mid I would say; staff is super friendly. We will be back. read more

The place had nice vibes, like an ocean/surfing beach feel. There's an outdoor patio and two sides to it. I think it's a great place to grab drinks casually. The food was okay nothing really stood out. I tried the brown butter scallops, and they just tasted like oily scallops. Not too much flavor, but they were cooked nicely. I also tried their avocado tuna taco, and those were a bit weird. The flavors and texture weren't it for me. The inside was kind of mushy, but it did have a hint of yuzu sauce, which made it tolerable. Next, I tried the gumbo with cornbread, and the cornbread with the gumbo was a game changer. It definitely kicked it up a notch. The gumbo didn't have very strong flavors like other gumbos, but I still enjoyed it. Then I tried the fish and chips. The fish was cooked crispy to my liking, and the portion size was decent. However, the fries were a bit too hard and tasted a little stale. The oysters were the last thing I tried and they were pretty decent my favorite was the easy coasts ones. My only complaint with them were the shell some pieces of shell ended up in the meat portion. The service was great too and they have happy hour. read more

Good vibes, good food and good service! Had such a great experience here--everything just clicked. The vibe is warm and welcoming, the kind of place you instantly feel comfortable in. The food was fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care, and every dish we tried hit the mark. On top of that, the service was genuinely friendly (thanks Brian!) and attentive without being over the top. You can tell they really care about their guests. Definitely a spot I'll keep coming back to for good vibes, good food, and consistently great service read more

Has a lot of potential . Food very underwhelming , especially for price point ; not appetizing to the eyes at.all . Veggies beyond done . Oysters way over done. "Seafood stuffing" way over done . Plating skills need a lot of help . Kinda strange . Definitely had higher hopes soft pretzels very good! Great camaraderie and staff Excellent service May try again after a good while and if in the area . read more

well, we love the fried oyster, deviled egg appetizer. We have been coming for about a year. Moved back from Austin area. We try different menu items for variety. Saturday was disappointing. We were with a party of 6. One couple gave up and left, cancelling their order. Mackayla was helpful, but had to apologize a couple of times for the wait on our food. The place had their usually busy Sat crowd. But, the kitchen got behind. My wifes Mahi sandwich tasted like it had be sitting to wait for other orders at our table. Servers are always great! We will have to adjust the time we come. Richard W. read more

Went during lunch time today for the first time. The environment and vibe of the place seemed great of the bat. We were immediately greeted by the hostess and sat down. The waiter was great,very sweet, and attentive. We got our food and everyone was enjoying their food. I ordered the Cajun Hot Chicken but they forgot to dip the chicken so it was not spicy at all. They also forgot to dip my coworkers sandwich too . We just didn't say anything since we didn't want to take out food back since we were limited on time and didn't want to wait to get another sandwich. Overall the sandwich was good and juicy I just wish it was the Cajun Hot Chicken. I do plan to come back and try this place out again. read more

Food is really good. The garlic fries are meh, the garlic needs to be sautéed a tiny bit. They use oil instead of butter so they are missing that richness in flavor. Everything is oily instead of buttery. That's a mistake to me. Ambiance is bar like, loud music, doesn't lend itself to dining peacefully or with people you want to talk to unless you talk loud. The service is the worst. Slow as hell. We had one glass of water the whole time we were there, waiting for a refill, yeah I'll bring some refills, at the end of our lunch. Shitty service no doubt. Truffle fries, good but greasy. Cheese curds, really good but greasy oily and you have to pay for extra sauce and they bring you the tiniest little bowl. Burgers are good but greasy buns and greasy fries. read more

Fun ambience and decor. Our first time here and we had the fajita trio, which was delicious.

Overall, I'd rate this place a 7/10, just very average. The ambiance was decent. They offer live music on select days of the month, and there's a nice outdoor patio area for a more laid-back vibe. It's a chill spot to hang out, but nothing particularly memorable. As a self-proclaimed foodie who enjoys exploring new restaurants, I came here after seeing some promising reviews. Unfortunately, the food didn't live up to the hype. We ordered the signature burger with garlic fries (+$2), tuna nachos, raw oysters, and the Baja fish taco. Sadly, none of these dishes met my expectations: Baja fish taco lacked flavor; the sauce helped a little but didn't save it. Burger had a thick patty but overall tasted underwhelming compared to others I've had.Garlic fries were overly greasy. Tuna nachos were overwhelmed by too much spicy mayo, masking the actual flavor of the tuna. I probably wouldn't return, but it might still be worth a visit if you're looking for a casual spot with live music. Just don't set your expectations too high when it comes to the food. read more

Great east coast oysters! Great cocktails. The boils are way too spicy for me and I really like spicy foods. Too much heat without enough flavor. read more

Love this place! We've gone for brunch several times and I've never had a dish that I didn't love! When it's nice weather, they'll sometimes have live music on the patio, and the place just lives up to the Good Vibes name! The patio is covered with plenty of fans, so it's nice even when it's hot outside or raining. Today we got the fried cheese curds (highly recommend!), the truffle avocado toast and the birria huevos rancheros - All hits! They also have a build your own Bloody Mary bar, which is a personal favorite of mine! Definitely recommend if you're in the Pearland area! read more

Warning!!!! They are re doing their menu- the food was beyond awful! We've been going there since they opened and it has always been exceptional. Did we have great service ..YES! our waiter was outstanding. Food?? Hard NO. I always order the avocado toast W egg - the egg was the only salvageable bit- it was doused in so much truffle oil that was clearly old/expired. My husband got the shrimp that were just rubbery. This is just so unacceptable- and disappointing for a place we truly loved to dine at. find a new chef maybe.. I don't know what happened but we won't be back. The star is only because of the waiter- not Good Vibes! read more

When we had that one day of decent weather, sitting outside was a real treat. The mixed drinks were so good and a draw for the kind of girls who like a cute glass (me). One gripe was they were randomly out of a lot of their beers on tap but I don't like beer so who cares? I got the shrimp in all cornmeal, so delicious, not overcooked and the Cajun fries were amazing. The fried pickles were also amazing. Our waitress could have come around a little more but nothing I'd make a stink about. Overall? It's yes from me! read more

This was the first time we had been here since King's sold it. The atmosphere has definitely changed and matched coastal vibe they had going. Our server was very attentive, even though we were the only table she had in our section. We found it to be phenomenal. We ordered the fried cheese curds for an appetizer. The beer batter was crisp and well seasoned. They were delicious. It was a huge mound, so we took half home to reheat in the air fryer. For our meals, I got a patty melt and my husband got the smash burger. Patty melts are usually greasy, so I was expecting that. It wasn't as greasy as other patty melts I've had, and the flavor was in every bite. It was a little too salty though. The fries looked delicious, seasoned and hot, but they tasted a little old. Now the smash burger. It was billed as a double patty, so we both thought it would be thin patties, but each patty was at least 3/4" thick, so it was a lot of meat. The onions on both entrees were perfectly sautéed, and the Cajun fries tasted fresher than my classic fries, so I'm sure the traditional fries are yummy when they are fresh. Side note, I didn't order the bourbon, but their bourbon list was quite extensive and had some of my favorite labels on it. The whole drink menu looked great. read more

I've had Good Vibes on my radar for quite some time, but hadn't found time to try it as I don't frequent "Pearwood" very often. I had dinner with my fellow Pearland Elite Jennifer A., a few months back. We had just finished a workout at Cyclebar and we were searching for a place to have dinner. We got there about an hour before close and opted for a seat on the patio. We definitely felt the coastal vibe from the moment we walked in. I was surprised to see how full the patio was. It seemed like quite a few patrons were just hanging out on the patio enjoying some adult bevies. Our server was Sierra. She was very nice, but slow at times. We had ordered appetizers and waited for her to return so we could order entrées. We probably waited 15-20 minutes before she came by to let us know that the kitchen was about to close so we hurriedly put our orders in because appetizers were not gonna be enough. I believe she said the kitchen closes at 8:40pm. The cocktails looked good, but I wasn't in the mood to drink so I opted for a Virgin Strawberry Basil Lemonade. It was good and refreshing. Beachin Deviled Eggs - you can choose from 3 flavors (Crisp Fried Oyster, Bourbon Bacon Chutney, or Smoked Salmon Dip). I had the Bacon Chutney and the Smoked Salmon Dip and they were fantastic! I really enjoyed the flavors and creaminess of the Smoked Salmon Dip. It's a different take on deviled eggs. Bacon Brussels Sprouts - these are a shared side so the portion was generous. They were very flavorful! The texture was great and it had a nice char to it. I ate some for lunch the next day and they tasted so good! Baja Fish Taco - these are a la carte. I had one and it was a nice size. The batter on the fish was good and I liked the different flavors of the fish, slaw, pico, and chipotle aioli. At the end of our meal, it took Sierra a long time to close us out. We were one of the last patrons in the restaurant by the time she realized that she hadn't run our cards. Maybe she was having a long day so I won't hold it against her. I enjoyed my meal and I want to try some of the other menu items because I'm intrigued by the menu. Hopefully service won't be slow on my next visit. read more

Good Vibes Coastal Kitchen - It's about to get real!! - Beer Bar Near Me - Pearland, Texas

I finally got around to checking out Good Vibes Coastal Kitchen. The family and I were looking to try something new for my sister in law's birthday and she suggested this spot. It's been around for a few years now and it is a total shame it took this long for me to get here because this place is great! It is located on the east side of Pearland and bordering Friendswood. They totally transformed this once German bier Haus into a little tropical oasis in the suburbs. The good vibes were definitely happening when we walked in on a Friday evening. It was a hot day, but the large patio seemed to be the place to be with lively, live music going on. We made reservations so we were seated pretty quickly. Inside, the place has lots of seating as well and has a Hawaiian décor going on. Customer service was great from start to finish. They have a variety of different items on their menu, mainly consisting of either seafood or burgers. The appetizer menu probably has the most mix of foods though. My family and I were locked in and ready to eat as soon as we got their so we immediately ordered entrees and skipped apps. I ran into some friends coming in and they said the oysters and crawfish were excellent. For my entree, I went with the Spicy Patty Melt. The name is what caught my attention. I've had patty melts before but not spicy. I had to try it. Food came out in a decent amount of time. My plate looked very promising when they set it down in front of me. From the first bite I could tell they use quality ingredients. The angus beef patty was cooked and seasoned perfectly. It sat between buttery, toasted sourdough that gave every bite a little bit of crispy texture. They topped it with pepper jack, sautéed onions, mushrooms and jalapenos, and a chipotle aioli. All the flavors worked in perfect harmony. It was probably one of the better burgers I have had in awhile. You have your choice of regular or Cajun fries as a side. For an additional charge you can get garlic or sweet potato fries, or a salad. I went with Cajun fries. They seemed like fresh cut fries which I love. They went a little heavy on the seasoning, but I did not leave one behind. My family got a variety of different burgers and sandwiches and one person got fish and chips. No food was left behind so I assume everyone enjoyed their meal. We couldn't have a birthday meal without dessert so we shared the Island Bread Pudding. I am a sucker for bread pudding and this again was another top notch item. It came out nice and warm, the textures were spot on. They topped it with a pineapple rum sauce, pineapples and vanilla gelato. I would come back just for this. Overall, we were highly impressed by this place. The vibes are definitely good here. They have a happy hour that is calling my name so I will be back very soon! read more

This place looks like it should be somewhere with a water view. I enjoyed the TV's with aquarium screen savers; cute and relaxing.

First of the place is beach themed even though it's far away from the beach . Also it's located in a weird spot that most people just forgets it's even a restaurant. The food here is nothing to brag about and it's definitely way over priced and super expensive for decent food . The staff here have the personality's of a beach in Galveston which is dry and dirty . Overall just another sorta themed restaurant which gets very packed that is just gonna fade away with time . read more

Minus the side eyes from the patrons in the parking lot and a few in the establishment, the name speaks for itself, it really was a good vibe! We had the pleasure of having Abby as our server and she was great! Even before being seated a staff member asked had we been helped, which we said no and someone came over right away. Abby seated us and gave recommendations on drinks, explained the full bar, and even told us that they had live music on certain days. Also she told us that there was a program for loyal customers. She definitely made us feel comfortable. I had the Kraken Burger which had caramelized onions, mushrooms, and cheese. It was very delicious. The patty wasn't super thick, there was more bread than patty, but the bread was extremely soft so it didn't take away from anything. My husband had the Mahi Mahi Burger he enjoyed it as well. I had Cajun fries and my husband had sweet potato fries and they both were delicious with the ranch and other sauce that was offered. I had the Paloma and it was slightly watered down so there wasn't that much flavor, but towards the end I did feel a little something so I can't complain just wish I tasted more flavor. We will definitely be back to try other things on the menu and enjoy the patio again! read more

It was much better than the reviews! We got the taco of the day... gyro meat, with tomatoes, cabbage, sauce, and a great flatbread. We also got a birria taco that was really good! We were at Happy Hour and got the guacamole and pork rinds, some of the best ever! Limited drinks on HH menu, and it feels like this place should have frozen drinks, and they don't. If you are beach themed, I'd like a frozen drink. Our service was excellent. So, give it a try despite the other recent reviews. Worth a second visit for us if we are near the area! read more

Let me start by saying my husband and I have been Good Vibes fans since they first opened. I'm not joking when I say we were there everyday. Young- pre kids. After work and every weekend. Staff, food, VIBES were amazing. We moved away and when in Pearland, stop in and frequently go out of the way to go. Things have changed throughout the years which is fine but it's not the same. Staff is not as friendly. There's maybe 2 "OG" people from when they opened. Staff and management now is not the same nor as welcoming or nice. The food is not as exceptional as it once was. Back in the day the chef was there walking around, updating the board by the bar, and trying new things and it was amazing! A month ago we went for brunch. They cancelled brunch. They were out of hot dogs and a specific beer they've always had on tap. OKAY. I go in today and order a Dr. Pepper. They're out. I had the same server today as a month ago. I asked if they had hot dogs. She said they have the kids one but not the adult- discontinued. At least they have the kid hot dogs. I order my meal the gumbo with the big slice of cornbread cake. They're out of corn bread and I got a Hawaiian roll instead. Disappointing, but whatever. At this time mind you it's about 5 not many people outside and lots of families with toddlers. Kids like to run around the empty patio where they have now placed wooden tables. Years ago kids would bring toys and it was truly kid friendly. My toddler and another were playing and running around and rudely were told they can't be on the patio it's closed. They put up chairs. We keep the kids off that part of the patio. More kids come, they go to the patio, they get ruder and close more of the patio. Rudely stacking more chairs and even telling adults rudely using the patio door. We had to leave. Most young families go eat early before the rush- normally kid friendly. Not today. Someone asked why and the lady said "I'm not paid enough to know." Disappointed in staff attitude, lack of products, and just overall VIBE now. I have been a fan since day 1, but this will not be a place my friends and family can come. Are they going out of business? read more

One Star: The ambiance was cool, the artwork throughout the place is beautiful. Layout is pretty cool, you get to choose from bar side, patio area, or two separate dining rooms. One of which it looks like you can reserve for private party and can be closed off. Two Star: I ordered 2 drinks tiki island, and pina colada both which were delicious and presentation was fun. Each drunk was about $12, if anything I'd be coming back for the drinks and the fun atmosphere although a lot of things seemed a bit overpriced but again I think your paying for the atmosphere. Three Star: you are greeted immediately waking in, the host is nice. My waitress was cool and made sure to check on us throughout the evening. Negatives: - There were a lot of toddlers and kids there it would've been nice to have an area for them to play since the patio area is pretty spacious and is covered in astroturf. - Food was OK. I was pretty disappointed this time round so I'll definitely wait a little bit and come back to check out other menus on the item. My husband ordered a classic cheeseburger and although the plating was nice the burger was meh. It's a burger place I expected a lot more than a bland burger. He got Cajun fries with it and that was basically regular fries sprinkled with Cajun seasoning. My 2 year old got mac and cheese and to be honest I think it was the best thing we ordered all together. The Mac n cheese is scratch made not Kraft Mac n cheese. He gobbled it up and loved it. Knocked out immediately after so good job on the Mac! :) - we came in at about 7:20pm, place was not packed but had a good amount of people. For it being what seemed slow to me we had to wait to be seated for about 15 plus minutes. I couldn't imagine the wait time when they are busy and i don't want to find out. Overall: It's nice spot, very casual, themed spot to take the family. Prices are a little high and at this point it wasn't worth what we paid. I will give this place another shot but not anytime soon. Thank you to the waitress for removing my shrimp crostini off the ticket. Again sauce was delicious but my bread was so soggy first bite threw me off because the texture was like a garlic shrimp bread pudding. read more
