This charming spot serves up crave-worthy tacos made with local ingredients and features a friendly vibe, stellar happy hour, and cozy ambiance.
"Galveston’s newly revamped restaurant Fish Company Taco is hosting a new happy hour that’s easy on the pockets and filling for the stomach. Tuesday through Sunday from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m., diners can score $6 bites, including smoked fish dip and a double burger, plus $3 beers, $5 cocktails, and $1 house-made frescas in flavors including its Mango Tango and Cactus Flower drinks. Half-priced wines by the glass or bottle make it even easier to raise a toast. Don’t skip the namesake dish: all tacos are $4." - Brianna Griff
"Located near the Galveston seawall, this breezy seafood taco restaurant has built its drink menu around an accommodating model of fruity agua frescas that you can spike, if you like, for $10. Those who prefer them booze free can opt for its fun selection of $6 agua frescas, including the Lime in the Coconut, a combination of coconut water and basil lemonade; the Mango Tango, made with passionfruit, mango, and lemonade; cactus flower lemonade blended with dragonfruit and fresh citrus; and the Pineapple Verde — spicy cucumber water with a refreshing infusion of pineapple." - Brittany Britto Garley
"If you can’t get to Fish Company Tacos by 11am, which is when it opens, you probably missed your opportunity to eat there. Opened by a former Uchi Houston cook, the small restaurant serves five kinds of tacos. Everything is ridiculously good, so it makes sense the menu sells out every single day. Each taco arrives on handmade tortillas filled with fresh Gulf-caught fish or jumbo shrimp and smothered in toppings like homemade pimento cheese, Hunan-style BBQ sauce, or lime nuoc mam. You also get additional satisfaction when the “sold out” sign is posted as you finish the last bite." - Chelsea Thomas, Gianni Greene
"If you can’t get to Fish Company Tacos by 11am, which is when it opens, you probably already missed your opportunity to eat there. Most days, a “sold out” sign gets tacked to the door by noon. Opened by a former Uchi Houston cook, the tiny East End restaurant near the Seawall specializes in two things: Gulf-caught seafood and tacos. Each taco arrives on handmade tortillas, with a choice of fish or shrimp and toppings like pimento cheese, kimchi sauce, potato chips, Hunan-style BBQ sauce, or lime nuoc mam. Plus, the fish is so fresh and tender you almost feel like you’ve never eaten fish before, even if you definitely have. Being a strategic early-arriver means you can watch the staff greet every other person in line by name, discuss their families, and tell nearly every customer in the dining room specifically what they’re going to enjoy about each taco. If you can’t make it for lunch, Fish Company also randomly hosts seated dinners (ticketed in advance). photo credit: Chelsea Thomas" - Chelsea Thomas
