Mel's Blueplate Seafood Express

Funny enough, this ended up being my favorite place we ate at in Galveston on our vacation. I randomly found it based on reviews as it was not planned at all. I got the shrimp po boy and it did not disappoint! Very delicious, crispy, and a large portion. My wife got the burger with onion rings and she enjoyed it a lot. My kids for the grilled cheese and fries; no complaints. The lady's cooking in the kitchen were very nice and patient with us newcomers. Just a heads up that this is inside of a gas station with three or so tables. Not a ton of room to eat but it was fine for our family. I will come back for sure.

Got there too late as most of suggested dishes were sold out as was daily special. Had one of the best fish and shrimp poboys I've ever had in Island.

Hands down the best burgers and riders and hand dipped tweebel rings on the island! add them to the amazing customer service that the girls offer and they have a great meal! the prices are also amazing, especially for the island!

Try this place for lunch and strongly recommend it if you want to eat freshly prepared. we had a cheeseburger and a shrimp poboy with fries and everything was excellent. they also have a daily special that we can try next time. this place has great food for very cheap prices for galveston. we're coming back!

This place is so good! we have garnelen po youngs, they are so fresh and would recommend!
