Thank you Collin's for the great service. Thank you Connor for making the drinks. It was a good evening, ambiance was just right. The mussels and clam pot is excellent a must try! Cannot go wrong with the Ahi Tuna, slaw and asparagus. read more

We had a very odd experience here. I was part of a group of seven, and after being turned away from another restaurant, we decided to try this place. Initially, the hostess told us they couldn't accommodate our party, but then they changed their mind. The interaction felt uncomfortable, as she emphasized their policies for large groups and mentioned that they normally require a minimum of $145 per person. She ultimately allowed us to bypass that requirement as long as everyone ordered an entrée. Our waitress, however, was wonderful and provided excellent service throughout the meal. I ordered the clam and mussel pot, which I found surprisingly bland, though the bread was delicious. The rest of my group seemed to enjoy their meals much more than I did. Unfortunately, there were also some cleanliness concerns. A spider descended from the ceiling onto our table during dinner, and another bug crawled across the table. There was even a bug zapper in the corner of the restaurant that seemed to be going off constantly throughout our meal. For a party of seven, our bill came to around $700. Given the overall experience, the food quality, and the atmosphere, it felt a bit underwhelming for the price. read more

A Hill Country favorite. This place continues to get better. The Toasted Honey Calamari has been my latest obsession. And of course if you're looking for some great raw oysters this is your spot. You don't have to go to the coast just come here! Drinks are fabulous! Variety of martinis (imagine that ). They also do seasonal cocktails if you want something new. Oh, wait! I still haven't discussed the desserts!!!! I have no pictures because I ate it too quickly. Key lime pie and the Bourbon pecan. Yes! Get them both! And if coming out in this heat is a drawback it is wonderfully cool inside. Amanda and Marco took such great care of us! The service is spot on. Detailed personal c Is coming back tonight too soon??? If there is a wait, put your name down, they text you when your table is ready. Trust me it's worth the wait. read more

During a recent trip to the San Antonio area, we stopped into Martini's mid-afternoon. We got a table immediately since we were there at an off-peak time. I can't say enough great things about this place. The ambience is fantastic; a Texas seafood bar that exudes cool vibes the minute you walk through the front door. Service was excellent, and our party of four absolutely devoured the seafood tower. That was some of the best, freshest seafood I've had in a while. We will be back soon. read more

This was our first stop on our girls trip weekend. We came here for drinks and to share an app. We all got side cars, which were very delicious and we split the spinach, and artichoke dip. We would've gotten more had our appetite been big enough to match the price. it started out pretty quiet once we arrive, but by the time we left, it was packed.our server was super nice as well. read more

Super fresh seafood and awesome drinks. We got lucky and came during happy hour on a Monday night and got to try several things. We tried 3 different types of oysters which were phenomenal and I would highly recommend them to any oyster lovers! Our waitress Virginia was and made some great suggestions for us. I can't forget to mention the Martinis, which are great! The dining area is very nice with lots of cool black & white photos decorating the walls. The live jazz singer and piano was very nice. I highly recommend Martinis for anyone visiting Fredericksburg read more

Kali is such an amazing server. Cass made us feel very at home and was very accommodating.

Had the best experience at Martini's! We sat at the bar for happy hour and Connor took great care of us. We hope to return for dinner soon!

Our group of five waited about 45 minutes to be sat and it was 10000% worth it. We had drinks while we waited that were delicious and the staff was very pleasant! Shoutout to Cami and Cameron for the amazing service, they were knowledgeable and friendly and made the experience great. We had lobster rolls Connecticut style, tuna burger and the sea bass. read more

Great service, great food, and great drinks! We love coming here, and Collin was a great server!

This place currently sits at 4 1/2 stars with over 400 reviews which was enough to get us through the door. You should know, this is an intimate space with only eight 4 tops and a dozen seats at the bar and that's all. We got here on a Wednesday happy hour, and the place was almost full, so making a reservation might be in order. The happy hour food and drink specials is most likely the reason why the place was almost packed. The dinner menu takes the prices to the next level. We started off with a couple of $10 martinis and decided on four happy hour menu items. My shrimp Po boy came on a crunchy French baguette and the Seabass was cooked to perfection. No wonder this place was packed. At six on the dot a pianist took the stage and livened up the atmosphere. The happy hour crowd trickled out, and the dinner folks strolled in. We added their bruschetta as the final piece and it was really very fresh. Some notes of interest that others may have missed: 3% credit card fee, no wifi and there's mouthwash for you in the bathroom. Definitely a place to revisit. 10 informative photos to get you through the door. read more

after not getting oysters at Zanzanburg tavern, we went to Martini's happy hour for $1 oysters and $10 martinis. There was a line outside waiting to get in. We sat at the bar and Conner took special care of us. The wife had a cucumber martini and i got a cosmo. Both good. Very small place but great pictures on the wall. Nice bar. The oysters were good and then the wife got a bowl of mussels and clams. The clams were kind of tiny but good. The lady next to us had a delicious looking dish of seabass. Regular prices are a bit dear for us but happy hour was great. read more

Had my birthday dinner at Martini's in Fredericksburg on a Saturday night! They don't take reservations and I forgot to call ahead for the waitlist. When we got there around 7:30ish, they told me it would be a 45-minute wait for a table for 2 but they ended up seating us within 20 minutes. They were very accommodating too when we asked to be seated at a bigger table than where they were originally going to put us. I had a couple of New Old Fashioned drinks and they were delicious! We had the oysters Rockefeller and the bruschetta as appetizers...equally delicious. I ordered the lobster and filet mignon and my boyfriend got the filet. Both came with asparagus and garlic toast. Everything was delicious and cooked to perfection! We were very happy with our meal! The only thing I wanted looking back, was to have read the menu a little more closely and asked for the sauce on the side. It was rich and detracted from some of the flavors of the lobster and the steak, which didn't need to be hidden by a heavy sauce. Martinis is on the pricier side, but the restaurant ambience is nice, service is very friendly and attentive, and the food is excellent! Give it a visit if you're in Fredericksburg! read more

First and most wonderful visit to Martini's this evening! Servers were Mia and Cameron, both did a great job! Seated immediately... no reservations accepted, so get there early. Bernie Martini on the piano... nice! We arrived in time for happy hour, so fresh gulf oysters and martinis ruled the first hour! Oysters were delicious, served ice cold. Cosmo and lemon drop martinis had the right balance. Parmesan scallops followed, with garlic bread on the side. A different dish, but delicious! Glad we tried that one! Entrees included the shrimp poor boy and barramundi piccata. Both expertly cooked and served piping hot... A glass of rose and French bubbles made a perfect pairing. Key lime pie for dessert was the perfect ending to a phenomenal meal. Finished with lemon draped hot towel service! We'll definitely be back! Highly recommend Martini's! read more

First of all, the service was 20/10, Kali took such good care of us and gave us the best recommendations, the seafood tower is such great quality and a great deal. Also would recommend their chowder. The vibe is really chill but rustic/nostalgic? Would total recommend if you want fresh seafood, vibes and service! read more

Martini's - Two tier seafood tower, 10/10! - Seafood Near Me - Fredericksburg, Texas

We've been eyeballing Martini's for a few years (on our semi-annual F'burg trip), and tonight we pulled the trigger. Right off the bat, I had to start with some oysters, and our server, Virginia, gave a great rundown to help me make the right decision. We started out with ceviche as an appetizer, which was really nice. It was just the right blend of tart from the lime and spice from the pico. The cucumber provided a nice texture too. I ordered the crab and shrimp boil. Extra-spicy Cajun. Yeah. This isn't boujee, big-city spicy. No. I forgot we're in Texas. Yeah... it's spicy! But, it tastes great! I'd definitely repeat it! My wife had the ahi tuna, for her dinner and it was cooked perfectly. We finished the night with a wonderful slice of key lime pie. This place is a repeat, and if possible, we'd ask to be seated in Virginia's section. She treated us really well! read more

This quaint little restaurant could easily be on the east coast in Boston or around Martha's Vineyard. It's small inside with a few tables outside as well. There's full service at the bar too, but I would recommend coming early if you don't want to wait. We sat at the bar for a few appetizers and drinks. The service was excellent, the drinks and food were delicious. (The clam chowder was a bit too salty for my preference). I highly recommend this place for the atmosphere and service. Prices are high, but everything is in this touristy city. Enjoy! read more

My husband and I had such a wonderful dining experience here! From start to finish, everything was delicious and the service was excellent. We started with the buttered scallops, which were perfectly cooked and incredibly flavorful. For our entrées, I had the Ahi Tuna and my husband ordered the lobster tail--both were cooked beautifully and tasted fresh and amazing. We also shared the garlic mashed potatoes, which were creamy, rich, and the perfect side to our meal. A special shoutout to our server/bartender Richard, who was fantastic and very attentive throughout the evening. He also made us some incredible drinks called the Texas Heat that were absolutely delicious and a fun surprise. The food, drinks, and service made for such a great night out. We'll definitely be back! read more

It was a lively spot to have lunch! I was pleasantly surprised and it had a bit of a wait. There is a bit of a sea smell and fried food scent that will stay on you upon departure. Dirty Martini with blue cheese olives made perfect. Boozy enough while tasting delicious. I had a blackened fish sandwich. Was good and ranch was good too. I would go back! read more

Richard is the best bartender. We had the freshest seafood . I would def come back ! I loved sitting at the bar with the great atmosphere.

Fabulous lunch with Jeremy being the star of the service here! We made the drive from SA and tried the shrimp and crab boils (old bay and spicy) the shrimp po boy, the lobster roll, lobster bisque and ahi tuna steak. I recommend the bisque and lobster roll! For dessert we tried the chocolate ganache cheesecake and creme brûlée. Will order the pecan pie next time because it looked great. read more

Martinis was great. We came in on a Sunday afternoon and by the time we left, the place was full. Don't bring in your drinks from other spots, we accidentally did and they were kind enough to replace it (shhhh!). We ordered the spinach artichoke dip. So good! Also ordered the Shrimp Boil to share. Absolutely delicious and full of flavor. The service was good and the atmosphere was really great. I would definitely recommend and return. Tip: They do charge a fee for credit cards. Apparently they also have a loyalty program. read more

Bad experience. Management would not split check because we were a table of 6 but they would because a table of 4 because ( because) of the 20%. When we said we would still pay the 20% they said no or we will call the cops. Manager was rude. Waiter was would have received a 25% if we were permitted to split. Also food is overpriced read more

We were fortunate to have only a brief wait for a table after being quoted an hour to hour and a half - the text came after only 25 minutes, and the kind hostess laughed and told us she likes to under promise and over deliver. That was just the start of a great evening. Our cocktails were tasty, my husband had the whiskey sour special and I enjoyed a vodka soda after drinking wine all day... The room is bustling and the seafood out on display when you walk by outside. We enjoyed a dozen oysters as well as the crab artichoke dip as starters. I had the barramundi piccata which was light but filling, and he enjoyed his crab legs. We walked back to our nearby hotel with full bellies after a fun evening. read more

We had a really frustrating experience at Martinis in Fredericksburg. We called ahead because it was cold, rainy, and we were traveling with babies. On the phone, they told us they had availability and could accommodate us, no mention of any restrictions or special policies. When we arrived, everything changed. Suddenly, they said they couldn't seat us because our group was "too big." Then we were told that any group of 7+ is automatically forced into a $145 per person prix fixe chef's menu. We had six adults and three babies (babies who obviously are not eating a multi-course tasting menu, they are drinking MILK) and they still tried to apply this policy to us. Not only was this never mentioned on the phone, but it felt completely unreasonable given the makeup of our group. Meanwhile, we were staring at an empty table that was big enough to fit our group. We were fully prepared to spend a significant amount of money there, and instead were turned away over a policy that should have been clearly communicated upfront. If you have strict rules like this, communicate them ahead of time, especially when people call to confirm. Don't tell guests you can accommodate them and then change everything when they arrive. The lack of transparency and flexibility made for a really disappointing experience. Would not recommend, especially for groups or anyone traveling with kids. Don't anticipate this place will be in business long. read more

Unless you just want drinks, underwhelming food that is poor value for money - not because it's pricy, because it's basic. I had the tuna steak, and the slaw was relatively plain - a missed opportunuty. My significant other had the crab claws, and they had it drowned in parsley and butter pre-crack, and with the corn they over-peppered. The corn showed the service as inadequate, because at first they didn't bring it; when my partner went to see about it, the response was that it was coming, but how were we to know. There was no, "oh, your side will be right out." My asparagus was fine, but not outstanding. I enjoyed 2 other FBG restaurants, but wow, this one disappointed. read more

We had a lovely dinner at the bar where Cass took great care of us! The oysters were delicious and everything was so fresh!

The prices on the food here are completely crazy! The value compared to the prize is not even in the same hemisphere. Reading on Google reviews after the fact, and apparently they have been paying people to write reviews for them or offer free dessert. That would explain why a tiny restaurant has 6700 reviews on Google. There hasn't been that many people come through the restaurant since it opened. read more

Everything was DELISH! Price was on point for HH. When we're in the neighborhood, we'll be back!!

Been a minute since we came to Fredericksburg. We definitely love good Seafood! This facility was casually cozy with recorded music playing. Make sure you have reservations as this place tends to get busy & limited seating. We started with a fresh Wedge salad which we decided split. Will say a full wedge would have been a bit too much for one person. Fresh bread which we discovered was from a local bakery. The fresh shrimp boil another meal we split. Unfortunately I do not have pics of the dessert as my spouse consumed before I was able to snap a pic. Definitely would return here again. read more

Felt like our business wasn't wanted. Was told at 6pm it would be an hour and a half wait and we were more than welcome to wait outside. No reservations are allowed under 6 persons. read more

To be honest this place was absurdly overpriced and the food was mediocre. I can go get fresh clam chowder in Seattle or Boston on the waterfront for $10-15. It's $28 at Martinis. They also do a 3% credit card surcharge. Nickel and diming your customers isn't the play. read more

UPDATE. A representative reached out from Martini's to both apologize and give me an update. The Happy Hour saw only supposed to be closed during the two weeks of spring break. Happy Hour was restarted today and again, locals, please don't try and use another promotional discount with another offer. Martini's Jacks, and other businesses offer locals night and happy hour as a appreciation or thank you. May venues do so and make little profits on those items. So please, don't abuse it or take advantage. I know my servers/owners. They do appreciate the community and locals. So remember to tip and tip on the full amount without the discount . Our services often drive into Fredericksburg from other communities. Thanks again Greg. read more
