Galveston is full of locally owned restaurants. We are so lucky to have cuisines from around the world represented here on our island. I’ve listed only my absolutely favorites here. I’ve personally eaten at all of these establishments and can highly recommend them all.

On the island. The portions are large so one order of shrimp and fries can easily be shared. This is a food truck so no bathroom and parking is limited. There are picnic tables.
