A 24-Hour Staycation Guide to Eating and Drinking in San Leon - Eater Houston
"Whether your fishing trip was fruitful or not, Top Water Grill is an ideal place to dine and celebrate (or commiserate), leaving all the cooking up to its chefs. Housed in April Fool Point Marina, this bayside bar and restaurant has a 'you hook it, we cook it' policy. Request your catch fried and enjoy it on a platter of hush puppies, fries, Topwater’s cult-favorite shrimp slaw, and tartar and cocktail sauces, or go for a blackened or pecan-crusted version, served with lemon butter, rice pilaf, and mixed vegetables. But diners who come in empty-handed can still expect a feast. The restaurant owns and operates its own fleet of shrimp and oyster boats, meaning all seafood comes fresh from the Gulf. The menu is brimming with seafood dishes like crisp Malibu coconut shrimp served with a mango habanero sauce, its hot steamed Royal Red Shrimp, stuffed flounder, bowls of gumbo and lobster bisque, and grilled fish tacos." - Brittany Britto Garley
