In 1998, Buddy Guindon, his wife Katie, and his brother Kenny opened Katie's Seafood Market in Galveston, Texas. For more than 20 years now, Katie's Seafood Market has provided the highest quality of products available to its customers. The majority of seafood comes from local fishermen and shrimpers, including Red Snapper, Grouper, Golden Tile Fish, Flounder, Oysters, Shrimp, and Blue Crabs. A producer contacted Guindon in the hopes of doing a reality show about his family business. In 2015, the reality show 'Big Fish Texas' came to life on National Geographic. As a supporter of the local economy, In September of 2019, Buddy opened Katie’s Seafood House, next to the market. Katie’s seafood market supplies the restaurant with all fresh seafood. We take pride in being the only local seafood restaurant on the island that brings fresh fish straight from the boat and to your table.

    Food was not spectacular, with mixed temperature foods on our plates. Service was pleasant and I would give the restaurant another go.

    Fantastic food. Recommend getting a reservation but if you can’t, put your name in and go for a stroll on the wharf. Friendly service, good service. The food is fancy , the place is nice and clean , very open but not fancy just nice casual sit down after a day at the beach or on the strand. Easy to walk to if you are staying near the strand/wharf. Great value for quality of food.
