Certified Executive Chef Ron Killen returned to his home town after training at Le Cordon Bleu and honing his culinary skills throughout the U.S and is now opening another location in The Woodlands.

All of our food is prepared fresh daily, using only the finest produce and freshest ingredients. Even our rich desserts are homemade and the only thing frozen in our kitchen is the ice cream!

Every item on this menu is worth trying, and some of it is the best you’ll find anywhere. Even some of the smaller items, for example the habaneros-cherry pork belly appetizer and the exquisite carrot cake and bread pudding. You can count on anything in the steak and meat department, but the fish, chicken, and dude dishes are also a delight. Our server, Robert, was exceptionally knowledgeable and personable.

About the restaurant

Inspired by the time Levi and his father spent on Christmas Bay in search of speckled trout, flounder and redfish, Goode Co. Fish Camp & Oyster Bar is a tribute to the excitement of the catch, the satisfaction of harvesting and cooking freshly-caught food, and the ritual of coming together to enjoy a homemade, hard-earned meal.

With recognizable elements of other Goode Co. concepts here – signature dishes like seafood Campechana, a curated bar featuring handcrafted cocktails and wines, and a vibrant yet comfortable feel – Fish Camp showcases limited-time seasonal offerings that change throughout the year.

The Crab cakes and shrimp were delicious. Lots of crab; came out hot and the shrimp were crispy and hot. We also had the wedge salad - probably the best we have had. The cocktails are creative and the wine selection is good. Our server, Madelynn was pleasant and made our outdoor patio dining experience enjoyable. Friendly staff, always consistent.
