    We went to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary. Incredible service and the food was delicious…read more We sat in the vault area. Very private and quiet. I'm fascinated about the history of the building and many years ago worked for a safe company. Mosler out of Hamilton, Ohio. The setting was magnificent. And we tried a new wine.

    So disappointed!!!…read more I've been coming to Riondo's since 2013. What was once a delightful Italian retreat with exceptional homemade seafood ravioli and attentive service has, unfortunately, lost much of the charm and value that kept me coming back for years. I was excited to introduce my sisters-in-law to one of my longtime favorites, but after spending nearly $400 for lunch for three adults and two children, I left disappointed. The service was average, the prices felt excessive for the quality, and several dishes were heavily oversalted. My $42 Diablo Cioppino was particularly disappointing. Not only was it nearly inedible due to the overwhelming heat and spice level, but it also contained surprisingly little seafood for a dish at that price point. The Gulf Shrimp Carbonara featured overcooked shrimp, and nearly every entrée suffered from excessive salt. While the homemade seafood ravioli remains a highlight, it wasn't enough to offset the overall experience. After more than a decade of loyal visits, this was the first time I questioned whether Riondo's still delivers the quality, consistency, and value that once made it a destination restaurant.

    Order came with French fries, but it didn't say that on online menu, well I couldn't find it. I…read moreordered a side of fries' extra charge. More fries than i could eat! I also asked for and paid for Avocado on my burger. No avocado. Meal otherwise was delicious as always.

    My family and I were in Galveston and decided we want to grab lunch before heading back to town. I…read moreremembered the name Pier 6 from two different group of friends so thought I should look it up and see where it was on the map. Luckily, it was somewhat on the way back so we decided to give it a try. Rolling through San Leon made us question if we were going to the right place. It didn't feel lively and definitely was not giving 'Coastal Chic', like how Pier 6 has been described. Upon arrival, it was a totally different vibe and 'Coastal Chic' is a fitting description for the place. We were seated right away and they offered a high chair for our little one. We started out with fresh oysters and a flight of margaritas. If you're an oyster fan, it's worth getting the oysters. Super fresh. The flight presentation was so beautiful. My husband and I had fun trying the different margaritas. The blue one was coconut flavored. It reminded me of a piña colada but with tequila. We were surprised that we liked this one. The pink one was watermelon flavored. We could taste the smokiness of the mezcal in it. This was a nice, not sweet drink. The white one was their classic take on margarita. We thought this one was too sweet for our taste buds. The orange one was mango and I think chamoy. This reminded me of the Mexican candy Lucas - sweet and tangy. All drinks were finished. LOL Now to the main dishes. My husband had the Mahi Mahi and said the fish was fresh and had a good amount of seasoning on it. The risotto and mushroom was a solid pairing with it. He cleared the dish. I had the tomato salad and clam chowder. Their tomato salad was so good. It was light and refreshing. I love that there were dill and capers too. Their clam chowder is definitely different compared to others I've had. The soup was more like a light creamy broth. The clam is served whole. Oyster crackers were also in it vs served on the side. Even though it was different, I didn't mind it and killed everything. Service was as expected for the time of day. Overall, we enjoyed our experience and would make the trip to the San Leon area again. A few notes: Pier 6 does have a kids menu and there's changing table in the restroom, along with some diapers. This place is in between Kemah and Galveston. It's about 15 minutes drive from Kemah and 25-30 minutes drive from Galveston.
