    After waiting around 15mins for our drinks to arrive and not getting the drink order correct our visit didn’t start well. But an intervention from the manager, Kyle, changed our experience and we really enjoyed the rest of our night. The food was outstanding and the service was eventually excellent. Would definitely go back again.

    One of the best in the state. Food, service, ambience all excellent. Even though we travelled from Kerrville to Lake Jackson to see friends, we made the additional drive to Galveston with our daughter for the chance to eat at Vargas.

    My first visit to this restaurant and I was wow’ed!!! Everything we ordered was amazing. My husband and I split the roasted oysters, the mixed greens and the eggs benedict….. we had to make ourselves stop eating. It was all perfection personified! I can’t wait to go again and try some of the other dishes. Also, the live music added just the right touch to the atmosphere, not too loud. We really enjoyed this talented local musician. Not to mention all of this and an incredible view of the beach!
