We had to order (and pay for) extra queso. We did ask the waitress if this was the way they always looked and she said yes - so my advice is not to order them. Just order tots and a side of queso and you'll better off. Our friends ordered the loaded fries and they had plenty of queso on theirs.

OK, it's official, Fultons Irish Pub is my favorite, and most consistent, restaurant in the…read moreFulton/Rockport area. The atmosphere is comfortable and inviting, other diners are friendly and you don't feel rushed, although they get packed, for good reason. The servers and bartenders work hard to make your dining experience special, and do a great job at remembering their customers and their needs. It's a large, varied menu with lots of delicious and some unique items. Kudos to Chef Ben for his consistency, attention to special requests and for being a nice guy. The lovely Victoria does an incredible job managing this busy spot and hiring great staff. And, live music on weekends. This time I had the garlic shrimp, which was exceptional with a huge side of crispy, light , non greasy pub chips...yum. They are usually dusted with cheese, but mine were not due to an allergy. Dylan had the Prime Rib Sandwich,with fries, that he inhaled. A lovely couple next to us, who are regulars, Cathy and her husband (apologies), were so friendly and enjoyed their Million Dollar BLT and fries Kailey was our super attentive and pleasant server, and got to see the two best bartenders in the area, Felicia and Britt. Honestly, if you haven't been, your missing out! And there is also an outside sitting area, and across the street is the Fulton Pier, where you can see dolphins at night!

But I'm always hopeful. My second is typically something on a big cube. Pours are good. Service is friendly. The night we were there, karaoke was in play. As one might expect, some better than others. Overall, a good night as expected. Then we bounced over to Rock Bottom for live music.

The front "porch" area before walking into this bar is very unassuming. I didn't expect to have such a great time and thought it was going to be more basic bar-ish. I had THE BEST time at this place. I see why people go here. It is a locals place, but out of towners were very welcomed too. Great service for sure. We were very impressed. There's a hot dog cart outside, so no excuse to be hungry. They were delicious! I seriously cannot remember the last time a bar checked all my boxes. Cost, clean, fun, crowd, great tunes, TVs to check out my Astros, and food upon leaving. Check this place out!

In fact, because their shows are so much fun, and the people who attend are great I braved it alone, something I haven't done since Studio 54 days ( no snarkly comments), and had the BEST time. Easily the best nighttime stop in the Rockport/Fulton area. It featured a super comfortable outside area, with adequate seating and spacing. The crowd was great, and perhaps the best, friendliest bartenders in the area. There is also an inside bar with pool, and machines,etc. But that night was truly a magical experience. So many people welcomed me, made me feel comfortable, and as always Boo and Poo did not disappoint. I'm just disappointed they don't have a regular slot there. Parking was crazy busy, up and down the surrounding streets. That says a lot in Fulton. Definitely due for another visit. Thank you Lulu's !

Granted, we did visit during the off-peak season (beginning of October) but nevertheless we enjoyed our meals and would highly recommend trying them out for food that is tasty and doesn't break the bank in a relaxed environment! We got the Nacho Paradise with chicken (absolutely HUGE serving of nachos that you will have leftovers for!) and the Garlic Parmesan Wings in Paradise (very tasty and freshly made) for appetizers. For mains, I got the Mini Shrimp Boil (also super flavorful, a tad on the too salty side but an excellent portion size) and the Coco Shrimp on day 2 (I LOVED how fresh the coconut flavor was and the orange marmalade it comes with was a very nice compliment). My husband got the Pecan Crusted Snapper with mashed potatoes and really enjoyed it too. We will be back!

We were seated promptly at a table next to windows facing the Harbor. Our Wait Staff Professional was Maricela aka "Mari"! We each ordered different Seafood dinner plates. It takes time to prepare great meals for so many Customers and today was no exception. Our small wait was well rewarded with four plates of excellently prepared fare. I noticed that the all the staff were working together to help each other serve the Customers. I looked up and headed to our table I saw Ms. Destiny with a huge tray of dinner plates high above her head. Using ONE hand! Her presentation was Worthy of any high end European dining. Excellent coordination while setting up the stand so our waitress Maricela could serve our dinner. This staff worked as a TEAM to help each other in providing Outstanding Service to go with a GREAT meal. WOW! I was impressed. My wife ordered the Bread pudding with sourdough bread. It was good! To go with our great meal there was great scenery outside. We kept looking out the massive windows at the passing personal fishing boats and the fish turning in the water. We enjoyed our meal and got a bonus when the moon came out and displayed itself in a very brilliant way. We took pictures. We highly recommend Paradise Key - Go There!
