Jimmys on the Pier - Galveston (TX)

5 /5 mark copus: We’ve eaten here a number of times. The place inside and out was decorated nicely for Christmas. They put a lot of work into it and it was enjoyable being there. Our server was attentive but not overbearing. One thing I really liked seeing, since it was a little slow two workers grabbed cloths and cleaner and started cleaning the wall below the bar. I was impressed, I couldn’t even see dirt from the table 10’ away. As always, the food is good, reasonable and cooked just right. My wife was very impressed with the wine pour as well as me with my low tide drafts from Galveston Brewery.

5 /5 Sam Olivares: The atmosphere here is amazing, especially if you catch a nice ocean breeze while sitting out on the patio. The staff was very friendly and professional, and the food and drinks were solid. Be prepared for a wait during peak hours (sometimes 45 minutes to an hour), but they make it worth it by giving guests free access to the fishing pier while waiting. It was a perfect way to pass the time, and they’ll text you as soon as your table is ready.

5 /5 Dawn: Im from out of town, and always visit Jimmys when I am in Galveston. I cant find any fault with this place at all. There are a few things to consider before choosing it though. If you are mobility challenged, the restaurant is on the second story, and its a pretty challenging set of stairs. However, once you get up there, you are over the water, with an amazing sea breeze, and its just an instant stress reliever. I would say there are about 20 tables under the roof (but with no doors or windows, you still feel that amazing breeze) so that you are out of the sun, or you can sit on the deck with no cover overhead, but it can be hot with the sun beating down on you. I have eaten on the deck at night and it was just magical. If you have long hair, I would bring something to tie it back with, or you will be struggling to eat on windy days. The food is pretty amazing - a good selection of seafood AND non seafood - its all quality ingredients, with thought put into the recipes. AND I have never found an unhappy member of staff there - they are all very friendly and helpful. Love this place!
