The 6 oysters with cheese are so good, the view is great, the service was good, we just waited a little bit for the food, but the taste makes up for the wait, I would definitely come back.
Thanks Vivian, she was very kind.
Great Beach Vibe, Delicious Seafood, and Gorgeous Views
Noah’s Ark is such a fun spot on Galveston Bay! The restaurant is huge inside with lots of windows, a downstairs patio, and a full upstairs patio where they host live music on the weekends. The whole place has an eclectic beach bar vibe that feels laid-back but lively at the same time—perfect for a coastal escape.
The food was absolutely delicious. My oysters were huge, juicy, and perfectly prepared. The hush puppies were seasoned so well that even I (who usually doesn’t like them) thought they were fantastic. The fries had a unique, lightly battered flavor that made them extra good. My husband’s coconut shrimp had just the right amount of coconut flavor, and the coleslaw was sweet but balanced, not overdone. The coconut sauce was different than usual—it didn’t have pineapple like traditional versions—but it still worked wonderfully with the shrimp. Both the cocktail and tartar sauces tasted homemade and were packed with flavor.
The only downside for me was that substitutions weren’t allowed, even if I was willing to pay extra. For example, I would have swapped fries for fried okra since they were listed at the same price on the menu, but the policy wouldn’t allow it. That was frustrating. Also, our waitress was new and it showed a little, but she was kind and tried her best.
Overall, the experience was fantastic—the food, views, and vibe more than make up for the small drawbacks. Noah’s Ark is a must-stop if you’re looking for great seafood and a fun atmosphere on the bay. I’d definitely come back!
⭐⭐⭐⭐ Update: We came back for breakfast and unfortunately it dropped my rating to 4 stars. My husband’s French toast came out with no syrup or powdered sugar, and it took about 10 minutes just to get syrup (they said they had no powdered sugar at all). My English muffin and bacon were good but were served on his plate with his meal, and we had to ask for more bacon to finish his order. The French toast itself was just okay, while the eggs, bacon, and muffin were solid but nothing special. Our waitress was very apologetic and explained there were new people in the kitchen, which showed. Dinner is definitely where Noah’s Ark shines, but breakfast and service still needs some work.
It has been replaced by a 6 oz sirloin and baked potato. No salad, no vegetables, no bread – very small meal. Steak was OK. We also ate raw oysters which were good. And had an appetizer of jalapeno hush puppies – good but a very small quantity. Don’t come here with a big appetite.
Service was very slow and I had to make several trips to the bar to get drinks and the check. We waited a long time to pay.
We sat upstairs which has a very nice view of Galveston Bay. However, most people smoked – it is open air but the smell of smoke hangs in the air.
It could be an enjoyable place but they need to update their menu and hire help – 1 young man was left to handle all of the 2nd floor – bar and tables.
Too many better places in the area wuth good food and service – we won’t be returning.
