We tried Moby Dick's for the first time last night and really enjoyed it. My husband's seafood platter was substantial and tasty, as was my grilled chicken salad. We have company coming next week with two sons, 12 and 14, and plan to take them there. The atmosphere is fun and they have a kid's menu. Service was good too,... more

The bar and the restaurant are divided so if you have kiddos and want quiet you can go to the restaurant. We never ate in the bar area but I think we still would have felt comfortable with it, even with our kids 8 and 11. Everywhere -- cool seaside nicky nacks and decorations. Not too bright, not too dark.... more

My daughter and myself spent the last week in Port Aransas and wherever we went the service and people were friendly and helpful. The top of our list was Moby Dicks. It was my daughters birthday and a nice dinner was in order. We checked the guide books and picked Moby Dicks for the seafood options. We went in and... more

We stopped here since it was open late, not crazy about that since we read some bad reviews. However, our family enjoyed Moby Dick's. It wasnt busy, but service was good and we liked food. Son loved the foot-long corndog, and I had blackened tuna, excellent. more

Tourist trap. So many better choices on Port A. I advise stay away from here and Seafood & Spagetti Works which is even worse. Fins, Venetian Hot Plate (if willing to splurge), Taqueria San Juan, and Snoopy's (worth the drive to North Padre) so much better. more

Stopped here before heading home on Sunday noon. Place was very busy and we chose to sit in the covered area between the enclosed restaurant and the souvenir shop. Service was a little slow, but people were coming in at a pretty steady clip, so we figured it make take a little longer than normal. Wife ordered the 4 jumbo... more

Undeterred by the mixed reviews on tripadvisor, we decided to check out Moby Dicks for ourselves on a recent trip to Port A primarily because we have a 5 year old and some of the reviews said the atmosphere was good for kids. Since it looked busy on the thirsday night we visited, my wife went to ask about any... more
