Martini's Seafood House

If you're in the mood for high‑quality seafood, well‑crafted cocktails, and attentive service in a relaxed yet refined setting, Martini’s Seafood House ranks among the best dining experiences in Fredericksburg. Despite being a bit of a splurge and small in size, the consistently fresh food and standout drink service make it a memorable choice. Just plan ahead (especially if you want a table) and consider going during happy hour or taking a seat at the bar. Our server Mia was attentive and friendly! Sterling makes a great margarita and didn’t hold back on the Martini!! This place is a must stop!!

Killer place, quality food, awesome staff, great prices, where can one go wrong? Nowhere! Our server, Christian, was attentive, knowledgeable, and very personable. Had a great time chatting with him and having an all around delightful evening. My recommendation is to come early before the crowd hits so you can soak up the A/C (during the summer), the atmosphere and the libations. Right off the main drag in downtown Fredericksburg this is a treat to not be missed. Come early. Come often. Just come.

What a delight this place was phenomenal service, decor, music and the food OMG this was divine. We haven't had solid seafood in the PNW just ok maybe is how they prepare the food there but back here in TX this was amazing. We are glad to be visiting the town and enjoying some great seafood. Martinis care about their food and much attention to detail on their preparation and presentation. Our server Roman was a true professional and made great recommendations. Overall a great experience and will recommend to family and friends.

I give Martini’s five stars. Quality of food is excellent. I ordered the scallops as a starter, a couple oysters, and the crab legs for dinner. As an avid seafood eater, I was impressed that the scallops came out cooked perfectly (hard to do) and the crab was simple and delicious. Sterling, my server and bartender, was excellent and also makes a mean dirty martini. Highly recommend Martini’s for the food but also the old school restaurant feel, live music on a piano, and to ogle at old classic sailing photos of JFK.

Such a great day! We arrived when they opened at noon and enjoyed the most delicious martinis, garlic shrimp scampi, crab cakes and snow crab legs!!! The key lime pie was so delicious!!! We had Lemon Drop, Pear and Cucumber martinis! A wonderful summer luncheon! Perfect food for a beautiful day in FRED! We are coming back!!!! I forgot to mention the great Bloody Mary and spicy margarita my husband had along with his couple of beer hydration drinks 😃 Mia was our server and she was amazing!

Our meal was amazing! The host was friendly and sat us quicker than the estimated wait time. While we waited, we ordered a drink with Nicole. Nicole was fun and personable. Cody was our server. Cody was knowledgeable of the menu and answered all our questions and recommendations. We would recommend Martinis Seafood House to anyone and will be back at our future visits to Fredericksburg.

Martini’s Seafood House is an exceptional dining experience! The service is outstanding, and Cody truly made our visit memorable with his top-notch recommendations for drinks, appetizers, and entrees. The old fashioned was perfectly crafted, and the espresso martini was expertly blended. We indulged in the baked gulf oysters Rockefeller, and they were so delicious that I found myself wishing for two more orders! The lobster roll had a delightful spice, adding a nice kick to it. The ahi tuna sandwich was impressively thick and served warm, making it a satisfying choice. I also loved the side of chips that came with our sandwiches, which were the perfect complement. Overall, I highly recommend Martini’s Seafood House for anyone looking for a fantastic seafood meal!

Absolutely amazing experience! The crab cakes were packed with flavor—crispy on the outside, tender and full of real crab inside. The Rockefeller oysters were next-level—creamy, savory, and perfectly baked. Everything tasted fresh and was beautifully presented. Great service and cozy atmosphere made it even better. Can’t wait to come back Jeremy was fantastic!

Fabulous lunch with Jeremy being the star of the service here! We made the drive from SA and tried the shrimp and crab boils (old bay and spicy) the shrimp po boy, the lobster roll, lobster bisque and ahi tuna steak. I recommend the bisque and lobster roll! For dessert we tried the chocolate ganache cheesecake and creme brûlée. Will order the pecan pie next time because it looked great.

Been a minute since we came to Fredericksburg. We definitely love good Seafood! This facility was casually cozy with recorded music playing. Make sure you have reservations as this place tends to get busy & limited seating. We started with a fresh Wedge salad which we decided split. Will say a full wedge would have been a bit too much for one person. Fresh bread which we discovered was from a local bakery. The fresh shrimp boil another meal we split. Unfortunately I do not have pics of the dessert as my spouse consumed before I was able to snap a pic. Definitely would return here again.

This review will be split in two parts. First, the staff is great. Wendy, Sterling and everyone provided great service. The drinks were great. The oysters were fresh and tasty. Then main courses were subpar. The lobster bisque was very salty and tasted like something out of a can. The steak salad had a super sweet dressing that over powered everything and the sirloin was chewy and lacked flavor. Not sure what the hype is all about. But I'd come back just for drinks and oysters. Everything else is wayyyy overpriced for the quality.

It was a lively spot to have lunch! I was pleasantly surprised and it had a bit of a wait. There is a bit of a sea smell and fried food scent that will stay on you upon departure. Dirty Martini with blue cheese olives made perfect. Boozy enough while tasting delicious. I had a blackened fish sandwich. Was good and ranch was good too. I would go back!

Best seafood in Texas!! Great atmosphere, the service was amazing!! Roman was so friendly and gave us great dish recommendations. We got the fried calamari and lobster roll. Both were delicious!! we can't wait to come back.

Freshest seafood out there. Best calamari ever. Awesome service. We had Roman serve us.

The food was Excellent, Christian took very good care of us! Ambiance was great, nice space. Would come back again.

Great location and service. Every one was so friendly even the patrons. My husband and I were drooling for fresh seafood and Martini's didn't disappoint. We Inquired about the seafood tower for 2 and were a bit taken back about the price. Don't get me wrong, you get plenty of seafood but I have to say the price is a little steep. Since it was our anniversary we decided to splurge. It would have been better if the crab legs were warm but it was definitely delicious nonetheless. Great visit and I highly recommend!

Christian did an amazing job serving us an outstanding meal! Great drinks, wonderful fresh seafood all in a cozy environment that allowed 4 women from the Texas Panhandle to indulge in seafood that we don't have the opportunity to appreciate often enough.

Martinis was great. We came in on a Sunday afternoon and by the time we left, the place was full. Don't bring in your drinks from other spots, we accidentally did and they were kind enough to replace it (shhhh!). We ordered the spinach artichoke dip. So good! Also ordered the Shrimp Boil to share. Absolutely delicious and full of flavor. The service was good and the atmosphere was really great. I would definitely recommend and return. Tip: They do charge a fee for credit cards. Apparently they also have a loyalty program.

The seafood tower was absolutely outstanding. Our server, Cristian, made the evening even better with his exceptional service. He was attentive, friendly, and ensured everything was perfect from start to finish. We will definitely be returning!

Great service! Jermey was amazing & attentive. Great suggestions & super friendly. Would definitely come back.

UPDATE. A representative reached out from Martini's to both apologize and give me an update. The Happy Hour saw only supposed to be closed during the two weeks of spring break. Happy Hour was restarted today and again, locals, please don't try and use another promotional discount with another offer. Martini's Jacks, and other businesses offer locals night and happy hour as a appreciation or thank you. May venues do so and make little profits on those items. So please, don't abuse it or take advantage. I know my servers/owners. They do appreciate the community and locals. So remember to tip and tip on the full amount without the discount . Our services often drive into Fredericksburg from other communities. Thanks again Greg.

Service was great. Ambiance was nice especially the music. Food was not bad but I don't feel like we got our moneys worth. A small shrimp po boy was over $26. I ordered the sea bass. It had decent flavor and texture but the amount received was underwhelming for the price we paid. Expect over $200 for a couple of drinks , 2 apps, and 3 meals that are served in cafeteria style baskets.

Food is excellent. Great friendly service from Tom. An unexpected, high quality seafood find in Fredericksburg

The food and service were excellent! Would definitely recommend. We really enjoyed the atmosphere.

Unfortunately we have to rate this a 1. We stopped by to get drinks and dinner. The hostess informed is that the bar as first come first serve but we weren't allowed to sit there the 5th of July, we chose to go elsewhere due to her inability to accommodate us.

Food & drinks were amazing. Service was ok, but they were also pretty busy. Jeremy came to save the day & provided us amazing service.

In the Heart of Hill Country where the Texas Beef roams the turf, Martini's brings the surf! What a great find on our day trip to Fredricksburg with a quality dinner experience that all started with our Server, Christie. She was friendly, professional and very helpful in talking us through the many seafood options they offer. From my wife's Espresso Martini, fantastic Wedge Salad, to the Seafood Tower that was impressive in presentation. The Oysters, Lobster, Crab and Prawns were perfectly prepared that took us back our coastal roots! Add Martini's to your next visit to Fredericksburg and ask for Christie!

3.5.... Wanted this place to be better than it was. Should have known. I was raised in the PNW and we know roasted coffee and our seafood. We ordered the spinach and artichoke dip, crab cakes, the shrimp cocktail, the wedge salad (which never came), surf and turf, and the crab Mac n cheese. The dip was average, Crab cakes seemed almost processed, shrimp was on the downside of its shelf life, the surf and turf was basically lathered with a sauce and butter/ garlic that made it indistinguishable. The waiter who was great (Jaksen) insisted we try the pecan pie. Claiming it was indeed a 10 out of 10 had clearly never been to Costco during Thanksgiving... Traveling through Texas this meal was easily the worst we had. I would say avoid until they start caring again. For $300 for 2 adults and a 5 yo this place is a rip off.

My first experience over 10 years ago trying an oyster was traumatic. I'm so glad I gave oysters another chance today because I liked it! So glad we ordered the Seafood platter! I think it was also my first time trying lobster and was pleasantly surprised. I also came with an oyster fanatic and she said they're great East Coast oysters, buttery! The food is very fresh, the drinks are fantastic and the service was excellent, thank you Cody!

I went here for dinner last Sunday, and it was just okay. You can call ahead to get on the waitlist, and they'll text you when it's your turn. The place is small but cozy. However, our food took a long time to arrive, and the server didn't check on us while we waited. Once our meals came, he was attentive again. I ordered oysters, but the waiter forgot them. He did bring a few for free, which was nice. I had the pan-seared bass, and it wasn't great and felt overpriced. My partner got the steak, which was really good. Considering what we paid, I'd rate the service a 6.5 out of 10. It was Valentine's weekend, so I get that the staff might have been worn out.

Seafood tower is outstanding! So many oysters, crabs, and lobster chilled to perfection. You're in New Orleans with the French martini too! Ask for Roman, excellent service.

I visited this restaurant with high hopes due to a review I saw. I arrived with a friend and was told I could either sit at the bar or sit at this table that was in the corner at the back of the restaurant. I chose to sit at the table. The table and the chairs were poorly wiped down, with crumbs left behind. I cleaned it myself. I ordered a few things off of the menu; oysters, calamari, and an ahi tuna burger. The calamari was delicious! I didn't get to fully enjoy the oysters, because there was a long piece of hair sitting on the lemon that was provided and I would have liked some crackers. The waiter never came back to the table to ask if I needed a refill on my drinks, if the food tasted okay, or if there was anything else I might need. To be fair, they were short staffed and the place was a bit busy, but he passed up my table SEVERAL times, waiting on other tables. He could have quickly checked in with our table and let us know he'd be back to assist shortly. I expressed my concerns and they addressed the issues/apologized, so I do appreciate that. The decor was nice! A lot of pictures on the wall and just a really cozy spot. Overall, maybe my experience would have been better if they didn't have the staffing issue, but I still don't see myself returning anytime soon.

My husband and I visited Fredericksburg for his birthday and stumbled up on Martini's for dinner on a Friday night. The food was great but Cody and Sterling were Ah!Mazing! Cody made the best Whiskey sour I've had in a very long time. Don't sleep on Martini's and check out the guys behind the bar.

The Martinis are delicious they offer huge seafood plates to share the shrimp was yummy and the chocolate cheesecake hit the spot!

Was not what was advertised Not worth the wait and the food was not worth it. Please serve what is advertised Oysters were pre shucked Understaffed Underperformed Server did their best

First time here and I was not disappointed! Small place but great menu. Drinks were also great. I had two cucumber martinis and they were very tasty. Also had a lobster roll. Lobster Mac n cheese, a wedge salad, and crab cakes. Everything was very good. It wasn't too busy when we sat down so we were served pretty quickly and the food didn't take long either. There isn't a parking area, it's here in the town and parking is along the streets. Very great waitstaff and great ambiance and great music was playing as well. I highly recommend!

Ambiance: 5/5 They have songs from artists like The Temptations, Aretha Franklin, Ray Charles, and The Supremes. It definitively sets a charming mood. There's fresh seafood on ice at the window. The have lots of bar space, although table space isn't too large. Food: 5/5 We got lots of stuff. Lobster mac n cheese. Super creamy, lots of large chunks of lobster meat. It's also cooked with bacon which gave it a smokey flavor. Wedge salad, they asked if we wanted it split in two bowls and we did. It was drizzled with a tangy balsamic reduction, blue cheese, crispy onions, and bacon. It was great. The lettuce was crisp and the heirloom cherry tomatoes provided a pop of sweetness. The crab cakes were a good size, crunchy outside, tender inside filled with red and blue crab. Not too much filler, mostly crab meat. The Maine lobster roll was phenomenal. Large luscious crabmeat, lightly dressed with mayo and chive, in a fresh baguette type bread. They have a full bar and lots of drinks to choose from. I enjoyed my The French, a black currant martini and The Pear Tree. Both were well balanced and refreshing. Service: 5/5 they were attentive. Grabbed us waters as soon as we sat down and gave us drink and food menus and periodically checked on us. Parking: there's not a dedicated parking lot but there's lots of street parking available if you're here early.

On a whim we decided to try to walk-in on a Friday for dinner, early - we were successful and I can't tell you how happy I am we did. Started with oysters - today they had 3 different kinds so I had 2 of each. They did not disappoint. We then had the garlic shrimp scampi and the clams and mussels pot. One thing was better than the other. The garlic bread they serve alongside the seafood in the broth was just amazing. The bread in the oil from the scampi and THEN dunked into the broth from the clams & mussels - do it. Everything came out quick and Sierra was fantastic! It's a small space but comfortable. The bar looks popular for couples eating.

I'm not a local and I come from seafood country to the left and spent years working in seafood country to the right. I'm familiar with seafood tradition on the crazy and conforming coasts. I visited this restaurant with two locals who have eaten here before and were very happy with the fare. That's why they took me. This time not so much. We had a melange of complaints from not well prepared to prepared okay but not particularly flavorful. We cared more about chatting and enjoying each other and less about the food. So, we said nothing. As an out-of-towner, I didn't want to be a pain. I didn't/don't know what standard preparation is for this area. For all I know, to the locals, my dinner would have been deemed exquisite. I just wasn't invested enough to return my item to the kitchen. I picked at what I liked most. The waiter came by multiple times and asked how the meal was; we always answered it was fine. But at the end, we told him the truth. Clearly he was a bit annoyed. He admonished, "You're supposed to tell me!" We didn't and we own that. He however was all aces. Funny and kind, attentive and happy to make us happy. Desserts were comped to make up for, he was really very kind with us in spite of our being "after the fact" whiners. We had a nice time in a nice environment with staff clearly ready to please. I'd go again given the chance and I'd recommend this place to someone else. At this point I'd say they may be inconsistent as my fellow diners previously had food they very much enjoyed. During our visit I was specific about the lemon drop I wanted and it was perfect. And the creme brûlée I had was outstanding. The custard was smooth as silk and really flavorful. A little cup of heaven. So excellence can be delivered here. And as I learned last night, even if you're a visitor, send the food back and allow them the chance to wow you. My bad.

Run do not walk to this wonderful restaurant! Oysters (not gulf), Cajun-influenced entrees, lobsta (sic) rolls, and the staples (meat & potatoes). All of our Appies and entrees were 5-star as was the service team on this busy Saturday evening. We four originally went to The Stable as their lobsta rolls and drinks were and I quote "off the charts". Well, the Stable is not serving food just strong pours. We were pointed to Martinis as this is their "sister" restaurant. After a brief wait we were seated and based on the fact that they were at capacity with a number of large parties we steeled ourselves for spotty service. Not so! Service was on point as were my Blue Point oysters! Two of us ordered their spicy lobsta roll (not I) and was bountiful and delicious. I ordered their Ahi tuna salad and it exceeded my expectations. There was a good amount of tuna and I was FullFilled at completion. Last but not least I ordered 2 desert dry Ketel One martinis and they rivaled the ones I mix/pour at home. They did have live music when we visited and the couple played our requests and then some. Good times, great food, & service!

Martinis is the place to be when visiting Fredericksburg. Off of Main Street you will find this place. It's a seafood based restaurant with some good finds. There's plenty of cocktails to choose from with options of nonalcoholic. The wait was long in a Saturday night. It once we got in we were seated at the bar and had service by Marco and Sterling. Our food took no time to come out. Although the place is small in size you get great service with some good food. Prices are reasonable for a seafood restaurant. Seafood boil starting at $40, shrimpboy in the mid $20s. Stop by when you are in town to visit.

Came here for lunch on a Friday with a few girlfriends and though the place was mostly packed, we were able to find a seat right away. They have happy hour specials until 4 pm on Fridays, so we took advantage of that and ordered food and drinks from their HH menu. I started off with the French martini and ordered the Cucumber martini for my second drink. Both were really good! I loved the spicy tajin rim that the cucumber martini came with, which gave it a nice kick. We had dinner plans so we decided to order a few food items to snack on. We ordered the lobster slider, both spicy and Maine, Martini's baked parmesan scallops, the garlic shrimp scampi, and a dozen oysters. Each lobster slider comes with one slider plus potato chips. I get that lobster rolls are pricey, but I felt that one single slider on a Hawaiian bun with some chips for $15 during happy hour was a bit steep. The lobster itself was really good though, although the Maine tasted better than the spicy. The parmesan scallops were also really good and is a great option to share with others. The garlic shrimp scampi was also delicious and is super buttery and garlicky. Yum! The oysters were also good- nothing special though as they were just regular Gulf oysters. Service was fairly slow as there was only one server working, but everyone was friendly and accommodating with whatever we needed. Overall, we enjoyed our drinks and the few appetizers we snacked on. I would definitely come back here again and would like to try their regular menu for lunch or dinner.

Food and service on point! Liz our server was pretty awesome! Had a blackberry and lemon mocktail and that was delicious The garlic cheese bread from the mussels dish was to die for as well.

First stop in Fredericksburg's and it was the perfect cap to our first night. We came in pretty late and needed a place to eat for dinner. Prior to coming into town I tried to call to join a waitlist and didn't have any luck getting through on the phone.. but did see many people calling in and reserving when we got to the restaurant. It was 6:30 was told there was a wait for 35-40 minutes. Not bad at all considering it was the peak of dinner time. The space was clean but lively and the customers here seemed to be enjoying their food. We were so excited to get seated and landed a seat at the bar! our server Cody was top notch! He was fast, made great drinks, and overall had a great personality. Food was good!! - The calamari was the star of the night . Crisp but flavorful while also having a nice balance between sweet and "tangy". - lobster Mac was good but the amount of cheese sauce was a bit much . Personal preference that is. I wish there was a crispy element ! - steak salad was okay... seafood is definitely their speed here. Drinks and desserts: - bluebonnet cocktail is perfect for those who love that fruity & sweet combo . Very fresh but also sweet! - key lime pie was personally a no. We didn't finish it and overall wished we chose the cheesecake which many were raving around us. Overall we would come again!

This was my first time here and even though the wait was a little long, the experience was well worth the wait. The oysters were fresh (a little salty), the lobster mac n cheese is an absolute must have!!! And the seafood boil was nothing short of amazing! Our waiter Cody was great! He was extremely attentive, knowledgeable and friendly the entire time. I would absolutely recommend Martini's!! Oh! and try the NEW fashioned when you come!!

Oh man the food was great and service even better. Cody was our guy. Very nice seating and decor.

Ok. I have to say, if you are looking for a great restaurant in Fredericksburg, Martini's is the place! Wow!! Some of the best seafood I have ever had. The decor is old school New York with old black and white photos of sailing and John F. Kennedy. It's a small spot but has a cozy atmosphere. After a hike at enchanted rock, I had worked up an appetite. I had seen reviews on Martinis and was disappointed they weren't open. I stopped at the adorable store next door and chatted with the owner, asking her the best places to eat, she said martinis, hands down and worth the wait. So, I waited for them to open. I saddled up the bar, ordered a glass of wine and met some of the nicest people around. I ordered the shrimp boil. It was delicious. Perfectly cooked shrimp, crab, sausage and corn on the cob. It was sooo good but the portion was huge! I shared with my new friends at the bar. Perfectly seasoned in old bay. I am not an oyster lover but they were serving up a ton of oysters, so got rave reviews from the other patrons. They had an amazing singer performing. Great voice and a master on the piano. It was a lovely experience. I can't wait to come back again!

Great little spot in Fredericksburg to have a meal. We started off with some oysters on the half shell from the gulf and cape cod. Every bite went down with ease. I would have preferred a hotter horseradish but other than that, spot on. We also tried the Bruschetta. Great flavors, generous portion. The only hitch that lost that 5th star was when we sat and waited for a while for our entrees watching tables around us get served, leave and new patrons being sat. Our server asked us if we'd like dessert and we had to tell her we hadn't had our meal. She seemed a bit lost, ran to key it in, yes I watched. When it finally arrived it was perfect, no complaints. We enjoyed wine, cocktails and desserts leaving with full bellies and smiles.

we stopped for happy hour and got drinks and a shrimp cocktail. everything was good except the cocktail sauce it had too much horseradish in it

Our bartender/waiter Sterling was awesome, and the oysters were also solid. But that is the end of the positives. It took a very long time to get our food, and when we did, the crab/shrimp pot was absolutely awful. That rancid smell is still on my hands. FWIW my husband enjoyed his poeboy, but I'll be thinking about that boil broth for a long time, and not in a good way. The creme brûlée was also horrible. Basically scrambled eggs. What annoys me the most is this place has all their reviews from getting free dessert. This is not a 5 star establishment.

What a great find in Fredericksburg. The bar tender was amazing and so friendly. The food was really good. The vibe was kind of weird with the live music as it overwhelmed conversation. It's a small place with good food and good cocktails. I'll definitely be back.

Lots of hype with the place because there are a ton of people waiting 2 + hours for a seat so of course we wanted in. Unfortunately they don't understand how to give estimates on wait time so we went in not too happy but after waiting more than 1.45 we didn't want to find another place. All the customers looked so happy eating and drinking that we had major rose colored glasses syndrome. The food and service was meh and this review would have been a 3 star but our waitress Sierra came to our table with garlic bread to help turn our hangry attitudes around. Not sure if this place was off it's game because we didn't get seated until 8:30p and the staff was struggling. We ordered... Oysters -4stars Garlic bread -5stars Honey calamari -6stars Crab cake -negative stars we sent it back Lobster roll-3stars Barramundi-6stars Crème Brûlée -5stars DRINKS A MUST

Make your trip to Fredericksburg special with high quality seafood and cocktails :-) This is an especially good idea if you live in a city or county that doesn't offer great seafood. That said, don't be looking for your favorite fish here. This place is all about lobster, shrimp, oyster, and snow crab. The place is a full service bar (loved the espresso martini!), with seating for 12 at the bar, along with a 30-seat seafood restaurant. We had snow crab (excellent!), baked oysters, and a wild-caught, Argentinian shrimp cocktail. Martinis is within walking distance of all your favorite downtown Fredericksburg shops, so it certainly makes a great mid-shopping break. The service was excellent. There were five staffers serving twenty patrons. These included bartenders, wait staff and servers. The table behind us was a young couple that was new to ordering cocktails and ordered a dirty martini, which is something they'd never tried before. They didn't like it and wanted to switch to something more familiar (a beer). The waiter instantly replaced the drink, apologized and comped it... all very smoothly. In retrospect, we shouldn't have ordered baked oysters. They were good, gulf oysters, perfectly baked, covered with cheese and bacon. And they are tasty. But oysters are a delicate flavor. And so, prepared like this, you're basically paying $26 for the flavor of bacon and cheese. Better to go raw. And then you have a choice of three different types of oysters (market price). Plus, how often do you get to eat Price Edward or other species of oyster. If you've never tried anything but gulf oysters, this is a good place to expand your palate. Speaking of expanding your palate, they offer a wide array of martinis along with a few other specialty cocktails (such as an old fashioned to which they've added elderberry liqueur) at about $14 each. After a cocktail of two, or after eating snow crab and wanting to wash your hands, you'll discover my one complaint, which is that the restrooms were confusing. There are two unisex restrooms. The more visible one is labeled "restrooms" but there's only one toilet and one sink there, so I'm not sure why it's plural. And the other one is less visible (it's a side door just after the office), so I didn't see it. (Who expects a restroom outside of the area labeled "restrooms"?) As a result, I saw several patrons notice that the "restrooms" door was locked so they returned to their tables without noticing the other restroom. This is easily remedied, of course. No points off. Five stars. But I hope they soon make it clear to their bar patrons that they're not being forced to share one restroom with dozens of other drinkers. We'll be back for raw oysters and another espresso martini. And this time I won't be caught off guard by the whole coffee bean that was lurking below the surface. I didn't see it before it ended up in my mouth and then I crunched into it thinking it was a bit of ice, which gave me a bit of a surprise. Still... it was the best espresso martini I've ever ordered.

Wow! We loved this place! Only downfall was a long wait to get in, it's a small quaint place. But we were warned it would be awhile, so we walked around the cute local stores while waiting. There was live music, an awesome piano player who will sing ANY song requested. All the servers and bartenders were working their tails off. Plan on a slower pace for your meal, time between appetizers and main meal, more drinks was on the long side but the atmosphere was so incredible we didn't care. The seafood was EXCELLENT!!!

I could have given it 6 stars I would have. This will be on our list every time we go to fredicksburg from now on. My wife enjoyed the whole experience from the ambiance all way to the food. The service was fantastic. The oysters are a must and the shrimp and crab were amazing too. We will definitely go back.

Great food; great bartenders and cocktails, which aren't common in the hill country. Seafood is fresh and shucked right in front of you. The only downside is no reservations. You can call to get on the list but it does make planning a little more difficult.

Sterling was serving us from the bar. His beverages (martini) were fantastic and over the food and service was wonderful. If you like seafood, Martini's is the place to visit
