Reviews
From the moment we walked in, we were greeted promptly and seated at a clean, sturdy table (and yes — it didn’t wobble! ).
We kicked things off with the fried mushrooms , and wow — they were perfectly golden, crispy, and full of flavor. Definitely one of the best we’ve had anywhere!
For dinner, we ordered the grilled red snapper and shrimp and the fried catfish dinner. Both dishes were spot-on! The red snapper was tender and beautifully grilled, the shrimp had that perfect smoky flavor, and the catfish was crispy on the outside while staying moist inside. The loaded baked potatoes were a meal on their own — fluffy inside, loaded with cheese, bacon, and sour cream.
Portion sizes were generous, prices were fair, and our waiter Sam took great care of us — friendly, quick, and attentive without hovering.
Don’t let the strip mall location fool you — Nemo’s serves up seriously delicious food with great service and even better value. We’ll definitely be back!
Updated Review:
Still agree with above! We tried the fried catfish again and it’s still amazing and thick pieces. We also tried the fried flounder (whole) that was soooooo good and huge- definitely recommend. The fried red snapper however was not a favorite. Best sides were the baked potato, salad, and the green beans!
Original Review:
We loved the calamari and the catfish was amazing! The catfish was the freshest I’ve ever had, it was thick and delicious. Favorite sides was the baked potato for sure!
We also tried the stuffed jalapeños, clam chowder, green beans (spicy), and cream corn. These were all good but just not our favorites.
️ The Dishes Reviewed:
Fresh Oysters on the Half Shell | $9.99 (6) or $16.99 (12) | A seaside eatery is judged by the quality of its simplest offerings, and these oysters clearly set a high standard. When they are described as “fresh,” it suggests a briny, clean taste that is the hallmark of a quality raw bar item. A perfect, unadulterated start to the meal.
Hush Puppies with Butter | $5.99 | The menu lists “Hush Puppies (12),” a generous portion that proves this side isn’t an afterthought. Served with butter, they likely featured a moist, savory interior and a crisp, golden-brown exterior, serving as a comforting, classic accompaniment to a seafood feast.
Crispy Wrapped Shrimp | $10.99 | An appetizer designed to intrigue! The description mentions “shrimp rolled in crispy rice wrap and fried to perfection.” This dish brings a textural contrast—the crunch of the wrapper against the tender snap of the shrimp—and a satisfyingly light, non-greasy fry, making it a standout appetizer selection.
The quality of the food is only half the story; the human element here elevates the entire experience.
Rey,our waitress, is clearly an asset to Nemo’s. Amazing service ensures the meal flows smoothly and leaves a lasting positive impression.
Meeting the owners, who were “very friendly and thankful for our business,” speaks volumes. This personal touch and genuine gratitude solidify the restaurant’s reputation for being a warm, community-focused establishment.
The Verdict
Nemo’s Seafood and Grill successfully achieves the trifecta of great dining: great food, great service, and a good price. It manages to deliver high-quality seafood—from raw bar classics to inventive fried appetizers—while maintaining an approachable, value-driven menu.
For anyone seeking an authentic, satisfying, and welcoming seafood experience on the Texas coast, Nemo’s Seafood and Grill is a must-visit. The fresh ingredients and kind staff make it a true local treasure.
