About this restaurant

  • Great for outdoor dining
  • Lively
  • Good for groups
In 1998, Buddy Guindon, his wife Katie, and his brother Kenny opened Katie's Seafood Market in Galveston, Texas. For more than 20 years now, Katie's Seafood Market has provided the highest quality of products available to its customers. The majority of seafood comes from local fishermen and shrimpers, including Red Snapper, Grouper, Golden Tile Fish, Flounder, Oysters, Shrimp, and Blue Crabs. A producer contacted Guindon in the hopes of doing a reality show about his family business. In 2015, the reality show 'Big Fish Texas' came to life on National Geographic. As a supporter of the local economy, In September of 2019, Buddy opened Katie’s Seafood House, next to the market. Katie’s seafood market supplies the restaurant with all fresh seafood. We take pride in being the only local seafood restaurant on the island that brings fresh fish straight from the boat and to your table.

    Terrific waitstaff and excellent food. Only problem was an extremely noisy diner two tables over who spent the better part of half an hour, shouting at a table of young women, trying to attract their attention while the restaurant staff did nothing to quiet him down.

    Everything was excellent! Food was flavorful with beautiful presentations. Service was very professional and efficient, even though the place appeared to be at capacity. Highly recommend patrons go at or just before sunset and sit outside. It is really beautiful and picturesque.

    The fish was very fresh and delicious, but overall the meal was not more than average, a bit disappointing. Maybe we’ve been expecting too much…
