Upon reading reviews I picked a couple restaurants to visit while in Galveston. We were very pleased with Saltwater Grill. I called to make reservations as I didn't know if on 4th of July if they may be very busy. It was myself, husband, and 2 kids -ages 19 and 15. They gave us a huge horseshoe booth and Kevin... more

When I read all of the great reviews I immediately booked Salt Water Grill for dinner as I was planning a short, simple wedding on the beach in Galveston and had a party of less than five people. I chose Galveston for my beach wedding as I have many happy memories there but could have gone to a much "ritzier"... more

We enjoyed a wonderful dinner here during a recent week-long visit to Galveston. The Saltwater Grill was at the top of the list of restaurants we enjoyed during that stay. Food and service were terrific. Nice selection of wines. Comfortable, fun and relaxed atmosphere. The Saltwater Grill would be a great choice for a nice night out when in Galveston. more

The food is good but very overpriced. Waiter removed side plates after appetizer. I think these should remain on the table until dessert is ordered. more

My husband and I first ate here about a year ago. It was wonderful. We had not made reservations and the place was packed so we sat at the bar. Turned out we loved eating at the bar we request to sit there every time we return. Sitting at the bar allows you to watch the chef work those wonderful... more

My husband and I celebrated our second anniversary in Galveston over the weekend. For dinner Saturday night we made 5:30 reservations at the Saltwater Grill on the Strand. We were seated immediately upon our arrival. I see why it's classified as one of the best restaurants in Galveston. Very casual atmosphere but the service is great and the food even... more

Dined here May 15th, 2007 for Mothers Day. We had a reservation, but apparently they lost it, no matter we were seated immediately anyway thanks to a courteous waiter who saw us waiting at the hostess stand. The waiter was very helpful and very efficient. Suggested some off menu dishes that were quite excellent. The gumbo is dark and rich... more

I have lived in Galveston for a few years now and I can say, hands down, that the Saltwater Grill is the finest restaurant in town. In fact, I have yet to order an entree or appetizer that wasn't delectable. In particular, the coconut-encrusted shrimp stands out in my mind as being a premier dish. They also serve nice wines... more
