As one of the breeziest beach bars on the Gulf Coast, LandShark Bar & Grill offers guests and locals alike a great place to enjoy classically beachy American tavern fare and refreshing drinks, all with a tasty, island-inspired twist.

If you’re looking for a spot to enjoy some of the greatest plates in the area, look no further. Whether you’re in the mood for one of our signature LandShark burgers or fish sandwiches, tasty Tex-Mex tacos, sumptuous salads, or just-caught seafood entrees, you’ll find it at one of the most inviting bars in South Padre Island.

Thirsty? The bar menu includes a deep range of imported and domestic beers, local craft brews, craft cocktails, and — of course — plenty of ice-cold frozen drinks. This is also the only place to order a cold pint of our celebrated signature beer, LandShark Lager.

Disappointed that despite our reservation, we did not have a table reserved, so were sat in the back end, not an agreeable spot in the restaurant. Food was average. Service tried to compensate from a chaotic situation in the restaurant on a Friday evening... may be not enough people to serve.

Menu was very limited. Not enough seafood choices. Carribean salad I had was bland. Drinks too expensive. No reason to return.

Was there a year ago. Seems attention to detail was lacking. Trash cans at entrance overflowing. Small bits of paper/trash on the lobby floor. Wife ordered a Coors Light but changed her mind and wanteda punch drink. Waiter said she'd have to pay for the beer. WTF? Mexican shrimp cocktail was closer to ceviche than a cocktail. Band was good until they played Baby Shark. Price are premium but experoence isn't

Glad to dine at our hotel. Glad Jimmy Buffet theme. Neat place. Fun atmosphere with vacationers, beach goers, families, and live music. Glad this place was on OT. The clerk said they disconnected OT but apparently not. The service was OK. The food was a little better. Sit on the patio or near the pool more scenic and bang for buck. The live band was great. Dancing too. Fun place to stay and eat.

Fun place at the Margaritaville hotel. Busybusy times. I think they may have been understaffed but we enjoyed it. We ate here at least 3 times. Outside dining nice too. Near beach. Servers were really good one guy. Oh, the hostess said they were no longer associated with OT. Huh?
LandShark Bar & GrillResponded on March 19, 2024
Thank you for your kind words. We're glad our friendly service and outside dining area added to your experience. Please come see us again soon.

Pray steak e ever had in my life. Planned an amazing night out with my kids for New Year’s Eve and the food was the worst we had our entire vacation. Service was decent but food was horrible.

Land Shark is not using Open Table anymore and we’re unaware of our reservation. Great location, okay service, and overpriced food.
