Pelican's Landing Restaurant

PORT ARANSAS. Located on Mustang Island, Pelican's Landing ranks as one of the region's most celebrated seafooders. Their "you catch, we cook it your way" policy makes it a favorite with anglers who want to properly savor the spoils of a day spent trolling South Texas's coastal waters. Of course, Pelican's also serves their own fresh-caught fish and seafood, and signature dishes range from crab-stuffed shimp with jalapeno tartar sauce to their famous breaded whitefish served with garlic butter sauce and wild rice. Fabulous island-inspired drinks also make Pelican's Landing a popular place to gather with friends at the close of the day.
