We asked a local about where to go for authentic Galveston seafood . We were not disappointed. Amazing Cajun Seafood platter . Really enjoyed the fried oysters & crab cakes . We will be going back!
Had a bad experience here a couple years back. Their sign about Stone Crab Claws lured me back. I have to admit I had a very nice meal. I have even since my first visit returned for fried oysters .
Their patio is friendly for small dogs that can be lifted over the wall but there isn't a gate I get a big dog on to the patio . That's a bummer since my dog weighs 85lbs. There is always next time
The shrimp and oyster poboy was awesome. But the one dish that was amazing was the bread pudding !! Probably the best bread pudding I have ever had in my life.
The oysters in Galveston are generally top notch--but at Benno's, they're even better. Get the cajun oyster platter (or the cajun dinner if you like more variety in your seafood )...they're fat and jui
I got the cajun seafood platter and my girl got the etoufee. Both were some of best seafood I've had, plus it was fairly cheap . Ate al-t's for lunch and this place blows them out the water.
Modest but FANTASTIC! Add it to your Galveston goto list.
The gumbo is really good, especially during the off season when the weather is cool.
Very informal and friendly . Food tastes great!
Whole fried catfish
The Cajun oysters - DAAYUMM! Unbelievably good! ????
The Cajun oysters - DAYYYUMM! Unbelievably good! ????
Leave your diet at the door. Try a poboy and the gumbo .
Grilled Cajun Oysters are the best!
Great food. The guy taking my was not most welcoming person
Fried shrimp is some of the best in Galveston.
Crab fingers are to die for!! ????
Tried fried oysters for the first time....GROSS. stick with shrimp and catfish !
Whole fried catfish is amazing!
When stone crabs are in season - you gotta get them
Simply a GREAT place!
You can ask for half tails and half etouffe for crawfish . Not on menu but a good option.
Only been there once. The manager was really rude to my mother-in-law when she asked questions about what would fit her 'heart diet..' Haven't been back in the 7 years since.
Food was good but service kind of slow
Cajun Platter
Fantastic!
Must have the soft shell crabs !
Decent cajun seafood .
I ate a shrimp fettuccine it was good in but bad after had food poisoning for 2 days

This is a great place for a casual and delicious meal. There are plenty of menu choices to please all palates, ranging from salad to po-boys to gumbo. Definitely deserves a visit. - Jim Cordell
The riblets are a special, locally famous treat! Get a few items and enjoy them family style. It's all delicious. - Selena Stair
Great crab cakes! They are especially good with the potatoes au-gratin. You might want to go with just 2 crab cakes, since the meal is already served with a house salad (go with blue cheese dressing). - Evan[Bu]
Lemon custard is my favorite! This is a fun place to visit and the staff is always friendly. - Janna Talbert Lehe
I so love Galveston Beach! Parking was so easy and cheap!!! - Marlanne Venters
A great walk along the sea wall. Can hire bikes or have a stroll to the pier. Lots of families and a really nice atmosphere - Daniel Kilkenny
