The Galveston location is on Seawall with a large dining room and outside dining as well. Sit under the covered patio and watch the tourists and the waves as you enjoy a delicious Tex-Mex meal.

From Tortuga Reviews:

The food was hysterically delicious! Two out of three of us are from Texas and are kind of picky about our Mexican food. Most is decent, Tortuga was amazing!

The salsa has a delicious smokey flavor. We also ordered the queso.

For lunch we had the stuffed avocado, a lunch combo plate of tostada, enchilada and taco, and a taco plate. We will go back every Galveston trip!
