I visited The Woodlands location and if you're not careful, you could easily pass by it because its hidden behind the natural vegetation of the area and sits behind a Circle K gas station. Once we arrived, we made the mistake of Entering the Goode Co. Cantina because they share a parking lot, business sign, and entrance. Don't worry it happens more often than you think and the hostes are friendly and will direct you to which restaurant you want to dine at.
The hostes greeted us and quickly escorted us to a table. If you choose to dine inside the interior of the restaurant will remind you of an old school dinner. It's well lit, and some neutral music playing in the background creates a good atmosphere to enjoy your meal. Our waitress was easy going, and answered our questions on the menu, made sure her presence was none if we needed anything but made sure not to interupt our meal by hovering over us being.
They offer a variety of options for food and drinks. They menu displayed the many different styles of seafood from cajun dishes like Po Boy sandwiches and gumbo. Then there were traditional options like fried shrimp or catfish. Then other seafood staples like grilled fish, raw oysters, crab cakes, and shrimp cocktail. Honestly they have such a diverse menu you can't go wrong no matter if you stick to what you normally get at a seafood spot or if you decide to be more adventurous and try something new. Between myself and my family we ordered a catfish Po Boy, Christmas Bay gumbo, mesquite grilled gulf snapper, and coastal fried catfish. The food was good my only complaint is it lacked enough seasoning for my taste buds but overall the consistency of the gumbo was solid, the fish catfish was fried to perfection and the portion of food was good for the price. It ranks high among its competitors like Papadeaux, Bluewater Seafood, Bubba Gump Seafood co. or Rockfish Seafood Grill.
The food, service, and atmosphere were all on point and worth a try. And if remember if you change your mind they have a Tex-mex restaurant right next door owned by the same company. They are worth a try and a return visit in my book.
