Oysters, cocktails, & water views in an eco-chic interior
































"Overlooking Galveston Bay, Pier 6 offers fresh catches with a remarkable view. Get started with lobster Benedict or seafood-laden croissants at brunch. Enjoy wood-grilled filets, Thai shrimp salad, gumbo, fried po’ boys, and more for lunch, and an even greater selection for dinner. The appetizer menu yields crawfish empanadas and Hot-Blooded grilled oysters made with a zesty garlic-Sriracha-habanero butter. For the main event, choose courses like the chili-marinated grilled shrimp with turmeric rice or its classic Tide-to-Fried platter consisting of potato-crusted snapper, crispy Gulf shrimp, cornmeal-fried oysters, fries, and shaved coleslaw." - Brittany Britto Garley


"If diners find themselves by the water in San Leon this season, it’s all the more important to stay warm. Score a $10 bowl of chef Joe Cervantez’s gumbo, which is loaded with Gulf shrimp, oysters, and crabmeat; opt to make it even more filling with a heap of creamy potato salad or hot rice. The interior dining room’s Tulum vibe makes for a cheery dine-in experience, while the outdoor patio is ripe for warmer days." - Minh T. Truong

"Why It Looks Interesting: Who doesn’t love a waterfront Roaring ‘20s party—and a balloon drop with $2,025 up for grabs? Free Bubbles? Yes, for the midnight toast." - chelsea thomas, gianni greene

"When 5 p.m. strikes, this San Leon waterside restaurant will step back in time with a roaring 20s-themed celebration. Pier 6 will stick to its expertise, serving an a la carte menu with seafood favorites like blackened snapper, gumbo, oysters of all types, and wood-grilled steaks. Diners will also get to sip on some featured cocktails to the sounds of a DJ and cheers at midnight with a balloon drop." - Marcy de Luna

"I learned that Pier 6 will celebrate its fourth anniversary with a Halloween bash featuring live entertainment, prizes for best dressed, plenty of candy for kids, and food-and-drink specials (dine-in access or $5 entry); themed cocktails include a buttered bourbon cider, Poison Apple-tinis made with Gentle Ben vodka, apple liqueur, lemon juice and simple syrup, and a gin-based Witches Brew with raspberry liqueur, lime juice, and ginger beer." - Brittany Britto Garley
