We were so excited to eat here. We are from out of town and we're enjoying our time in Galveston. Initially we were in great spirits, happy, and in a great mood. Server was interactive with us. We had ordered our food and enjoyed the scenery while we waited. However, seeing people, seated get their food, eat, and leave, after us, we began to wonder if they forgot. We did receive our food 1hour and 25 minutes after we ordered. It ruined the mood quickly. Over priced at that. Cold food and a sour mood. I would not recommend eating here if you want to keep a good time. Extremely disappointing. It's a good idea for a restaurant, but a poor execution.

BIG DISAPPINTMENT. WENT THERE 08/24/26.Not worth the price. It taste like premade frozen food. More like an expensive long john's silvers. Spent $90 for just two of us which included water and tea to drink. Also when we sat down there were 3 dirty tables next to us and only 1 got cleaned and it was the farthest away. The tables were never cleaned. We were there for 45 minutes. The employees just walked by them, looked, and walked away.
Won't ever go back

We had such a great experience at Bubba Gump Shrimp Co.! 🍤💗 The shrimp here is delicious, and the frozen margaritas are so refreshing! 😁🍹 We stopped in for some appetizers and drinks and really enjoyed everything.
Dina, our server, was awesome! funny, courteous, and so welcoming! “Great service” Eliana, the manager, was absolutely amazing too. She explained our Landry’s membership so thoroughly and made sure we understood all the benefits. She was fantastic!
If you’re thinking about becoming a Landry’s member, definitely consider it,it’s so worth it! We just wish we had an Eliana everywhere we went! 🥰👏⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Over priced, over rated, small portions. I got the"stuffed" shrimp it was 5 average sized shrimp with a lump of something on it. Burnt toast, and flavorless rice. Son got kids burger and fries, more fries on a mickey d's happy meal. Ordered queso, chips came out stale, they did replace. Original waiter shows up, then out of the blue another one takes over. Ordered kids drinks with souvenir cups. Maybe bad communication on my part, guess we got drinks that didn't include cups, even though I asked about certain drinks coming with cups, waiter says we can do that. So, 30 dollars in drinks went to 42. Getting food out was not fast, not sure on time but daughter pointed out we had been there an hour with still no food. Hopefully the laundry brand hasn't ruined willy g's, we'll go back to that.

Horrible experience. We arrived at 11:22 on a Friday waited 10min before anyone acknowledged us even though there was an employee at the bar setting up no hello no acknowledgement. We finally got seated no one came to get our drink order at least waiters walking past us. 0 service finally a could got seated behind us and immediately got greeted by a waiter got their drink order so we got up and left. As we're walking out there's about 4 waiters just standing around in some room. Super disappointing. So we walked across the street to Fish Tales got seated and welcomed immediately. Thr service was excellent and food and drinks amazing.
