If you are staying in Galveston, you must come and visit Forrest Gump's famous Bubba Gump Restaurant ! Amazing service and selection of shrimp appetizers and entrees!

Must try the award winning dixie style baby back ribs and drink menu as well as the shrimp . Once you've had one of Bubba Gump's margaritas hand-shaken at your table, you're sure to be a fan! Read more

Do you love Forrest Gump? the beach ? shrimp ? seafood in general? Then please make sure you go to this amazing place on Seawall Blvd. when you visit Galveston Beach .

Dawn Burris

Love the view and atmosphere. Having the Landry 's card is so worth it, never a wait longer than 5 minutes. Food has always been very good. Wait staff very helpful and fun.

Alyssa Broyles

The Lava Flow is DELICIOUS!!! A must try! Service was fairly quick and a great atmosphere at night. Definitely try the dessert sampler , worth it!

Tiffany Quach

Absolutely fell in love with the place as soon as I walked in, amazing service and great food :)

Gypsy Rose

Get an outside table so you can see the pier !! Also, go around 630pm so it's not so brutal on you with the sun!!

Carlos Ortiz

Always good, no matter where you go, Bubba Gump won’t let you down

Jennifer Cottle

Prepare for a long wait for a table. However, the food was very good. Try the Lava Flow . The Caesar salad is excellent.

Chef Monique

Very Good Kentucky bourbon shewers. If requests table next to the window, u will have view of the sea

Jason "Danger" Diaz

Get the sparkling glasses and drink the Mardi Gras punch only $10 YUM

ESTHER

Skip during busy times. I am a LSC member & that didn't really get me VIP. Manager made up with a free appetizer .

Justin McAlexander

Pear and Berry Salad is fantastic for a light but still shrimps meal.

Tessa

Screw Muggz

The food was really good, I will return!

Mario Giacalone

Chain restaurant owned by Landrys so....... Don't expect fabulous

Victor Belyakov

The name of the restaurant says it all!... Don't bet desert comes without shrimp !

Mark Love

Seafood place but the BBQ burger was darn tasty. As was the Chocolate Chip Sundae .

Michael Davari

The food and the service are always great !

Amber Devasier

Everything is delicious!

Patti Suhre

We expected much more! We wanted the whole Forest Gump/Bubba Gump experience we heard about; we got none, I don’t think our server even wanted us there. Disappointing won’t go back ever.

Bree Cunningham

Brittany is the best bartender ever!!!! Beside me. Hehe

Julie Vail-Kilgore

Anything worth ordering there now is the Strawberry Shortcake- almost worth the horrible service

Kathleen O'Donnell Grone

A fun and noisy place to eat - great shrimp !

Terri Jez

Look up their number on Google and call in a take out order if the lines are too long.

Jennifer Texada

The BBQ shrimp with rice was so so good.

Susan Mussachio

The drinks are "made to mask the flavor of the alcohol so you can't taste it. " OK...but if I'm paying $9-15 for mix drinks , I BETTER taste something IMO.

Bobbi Raye

Great gumbo !

Thomas Hamilton

The service is awesome

Doug Evans

Good food great waitress watched dolphins out the window

Rose Lawrence

Baja shrimp is the bomb!!!' bring em back

Allison Coley

The stop forest stop sign signals for wait staff .

Nessa Sil

First time here... Overpriced food . Plus they check your purses even if you are just eating here at the restraunt... I'll go to saltgrass next time. This is just bc of "the name".

Mason Phillips

They have shrimps .... It is good shrimps .

Erica

Waited 30 minutes to put our name down, then another 45 to be seated. INCREDIBLY packed. Service was "ok" ...thankfully we had what seemed to be an experienced waiter but the rest of the staff ...lost

Julie Minerbo

Overpriced food , nice ambiance on outdoor deck , but mediocre food. The hush puppies were tasty though! Shrimp Scampi was bland & mediocre & Tilapia was fair . Not sure I would return? Not worth wait!

Cassidy Calman

Gluten free !

Kristi Townley

Waiters didn't speak good English, and pushed and tried to get you to add on or buy what you didn't want..! Food- not enough variety..

Jennifer Cottle

View from the beach .

Hayri Telekoglu

One the worse Bubba Gump that I visited in US . Service and coordination of people are not good. You are felling lost

Tessa Bertrand

Horrible service. Didn't get a chance to try the food because we never saw our server. 2 separate servers came to our table to tell us that they were not our server.

Kelly Lynch

Disappointed. Had high hopes but the only good thing here are the drinks - and they were $12 each. Gumbo was ok. Boiled shrimp bucket was bland. Go somewhere else for better food for half the price.

Christian Magana

Stupid is as stupid does. They did stupid, so they stupid. We waited 30 minutes for someone to take our drink order. 20 minutes later we still didn't get our water! Over hyped and bad service. Avoid.

Edward E Ramirez

Hush Puppies are awesome

Julie Minerbo

Long ass wait! Almost 2 hours...food better be good! Cool atmosphere!

Joe LaRoue

Good food but very spendy for such small portions

Xtina Vigil

Every awful thing they said about this place is true. The slow service was not our waitress ' fault. Management has a HUGE problem on their hands and it's w/ them. Landry 's needs to rethink this place.

Victor Portillo

No coke products and no Dr. Pepper ?!?! We live in Texas. Get it together, Laundy's. 2.99 to settle for a Pepsi . I hate Pepsi .

Celia_OvOxO

Never order the steak its flavorless, and the cookie for dessert is hard ... Only thing decent is Jennys catch
