We've had their pizza often since we discovered them 5 years ago. 8/10/2025 Tonight we split the fried catfish dinner. Nice thin cornmeal batter, 4 pieces plus tots (substituted for fries), hush puppies and coleslaw. Plenty to split! Very light!!! Ok other than the tots. Love Jacks for their food! ! It's a smoky dive bar but the food is fantastic! We don't go in and hang, both of us being former smokers, but we love their food! I hear their green chicken enchiladas are amazing! Will report back. One note, prices are a little higher than the menus online, maybe by $5. Still very reasonable!!!

This is a comedic bar. It's not a place that I would recommend going to unless you're hungry and…read moreit's past 10:30 p.m. in Galveston, Texas. Otherwise, I'd stay the hell away from here. If you want to see an empty pool table, maybe play around. That's a reason to go. If you want some decent late-night food, it's not a chain. It's your only option. That's a reason to go. Again, outside of that, I highly recommend finding something better. But it is Texas, and there's jack shit for food. But this place is one of the few places left that still lets you smoke inside. So you know, different strokes for different folks.

But that's a very good sign and even though we dispaired finding seating for three hungry people, the back room was opened up for the overflow crowd that I'm not sure they expected. While waiting, we had some excellent draft beer. If you find that you're craving something more exciting than the usual suspects, this is one of the great Galveston places to be. Sure there's Bud and Bud Light to be had, but DON'T. Give your taste BUDS a thrill and get a brew from their generous list of suds. It was a wait for the crawfish, but patience is a virtue that definitely paid off for us. This was Vudoo Viet-Cajun rather than traditional, and I think it was the perfect first choice for the season - with just enough spice, just enough citrus, and decently sized mud bugs, our three pounds practically put us in a swoon. Beerfoot serves crawfish at 2:00 on Sundays throughout the season, excluding Mother's day, and my advice is to get there around 1:00, find your table, get a beer, and prepare for some very good eats!

The food was astronomical, mark my words BEST PHO ON THE ISLAND, there I said it. The Pirate Seafood pho with chicken was dynamic with a flavor that I kept coming back for. It was like that scene in Ratatouille where the critic Anton Ego is at a loss for words. If there's one thing I know about Phos they usually take 3+ limes and a dollop of sriracha to make it taste right...but this? Perfect as is. Needs not a touch of anything more. My only regret not getting here sooner. Spike the owner, a loving man who cares about atmosphere, personalized service and taking care of your needs. He provided service as if you were sitting at the dinning room table of his own house. Show Spike and Pirate Island Bar & Grill some love, it's beachfront, quiet, and has a seat there just waiting for you.

I was with a friend and we were talking mad shit about someone (we are both geminis ) sorry we like to gossip when we get a little buzzed. We are bad. Oh well. ....Anyways we were talking shit about someone for something ridiculous and fucked up they did to me and the bartender went and told that person I guess they knew them (small island LOLOLOLOLOL) Them telling this person made them start harassing me and making threats and literally calling my phone all night long. It was a nightmare. All bc this bartender didn't like the 80$ tip we left on a 65$ tab of shitty drinks. He was cool or so we thought! You are a traitor man !!!! We thought you were our buddy and we had some really good conversation and laughs ! :( :( I haven't been back since. I'm sure they don't give a shit about this review i wouldn't either. I just find it funny that I spent like 200$ on alcohol within a couple days there for them to make me the target of a stalker lol

Their drinks are reasonably priced, while their food is on the pricey side. We got the Beach Please, Berry Optimistic strawberry lemonade shandy, ravioli bites, and a pretzel.

I really liked the shandy as it had a sweet taste, per the employee's recommendation. They let us try samples, and gave us free pickle juice shots. These shots were very unpleasant, as expected.
