I don't think I need glasses just yet but it was a little confusing finding this place, not because it's a bad location but because it's on Avenue O which looks a lot like Avenue Q if you aren't paying very good attention. An easy way to tell the difference is Avenue O is a one way street and Avenue Q isn't. If you find yourself on the wrong street just go two blocks north and you're there.
As their site says, they've got good prices on good food. When you order a po-boy you get more than will really fit in the bun they put it on. It was a little farther from the hotel than we would have liked but they're in a great location for business. If I ever move to Galveston I know what area I'm moving to.
When we got there it was a little busy but the line moved along quickly and we were ordering before we knew it. Drinks were serve yourself and the meal was picked up at the window inside. It didn't take too long to come out considering the traffic of people.
For some reason you just can't get seafood anywhere like the coast. There have been some places that messed it up even then but this place wasn't one of them. I could have eaten their popcorn shrimp and hush puppies until I popped but we had places to go. Their bread was fresh and everything was cooked just right.
Parking was a little iffy. If you get there when someone is leaving or if they're not too busy then you're good to go. The parking is angled parking from the street so you're backing out into traffic but the streets aren't that busy. I wouldn't take a little car just in case it scrapes the ground.
Prces as mentioned were fair.A shrimp po-boy is only $5.99. They would probably charge $8-$9 up here and not be half as good. $2.00 for drinks with free refills.
If you're in town for more than a day you have to check this place out.
