Baytown Seafood: Reviews & Ratings
The service was friendly and my needs were timely met. It's a casual, family friendly ambiance. Great portions and it was all good. I started with seafood gumbo and I loved it. I definitely want more. Then I had the bacon wrapped shrimp. And my buddy had fried fish and shrimp. Everything tasted great and I'm looking forward to my next visit here.
The food was great! The menu has changed. It's more of a Tex Mex Seafood menu now. We had fried Oysters, coleslaw, fried pickles and fries. Shrimp quesadillas, boudin balls, and French fries.
We were traveling on the road last Thursday right in the middle of the really wild storms in Houston. When we decided it wasn't safe to continue we pulled off at the first exit we could. The employees working at Baytown Seafood unlocked their doors during the worst of the storm and let us shelter inside until it was over. They were incredibly kind to us - gave us water, food, restrooms and most importantly let us ride it out until it was safe to drive again. I hope the management knows that they have employed some very good humans! We ate the po' boy sandwiches they gave to us once we reached our destination and they were great! We really appreciate the kindness those 3 employees showed to us that day - I wish I had gotten their names!
The restaurant looked empty with only one other family dining in. Restaurant appeared to be clean, it was just scarce of customers. We started off with Boudin Balls and House Salads with Ranch. The Boudin Balls were fresh and delicious. Only downside was waiting for plates so that my husband and I could share the appetizers. My husband described the ranch as "drinkable".. it was a good Ranch dressing. The service was just odd.. with now being the only table in the entire restaurant, the server seemed off, perhaps she was new. When the food arrived, I was skeptical at first especially with the sauces coming in bottles, but that cocktail sauce had a great punch of horseradish. I had shrimp and stuff crab which was a good portion and tasty. My husband had the fish and shrimp which was also very good! The fish isn't catfish, I believe it's Swai, but nonetheless good all around! It's a good neighborhood spot for fried seafood. I would definitely come back.
