Very romantic, fine dining with excellent seafood. I really enjoyed the Snapper Rockefeller. The shrimp stuffed mushrooms and garlic parm oysters were great. Everything tasted very fresh, no "fishy" flavor. Good wine selection too. They even had fireworks over the water for Valentine's Day. Highly recommend and will definitely return!

Took the wife out for her B-day and Julio our waiter seated us Bayside. We started out with the rib eye guacamole appetizer.  For our main course my wife had the Red Snapper while I ordered the lamb ribs. Ribs were perfectly seasoned and the fish was nicely done.  My wife got a complementary dessert to finish off the dinner.  Will definitely return.

It was great, however our appetizers and main course came out at the same time leading us to rush through our dining experience so the food wouldn’t get cold. We specifically requested that the oysters come first and entree second when ordering. Otherwise the food was great, atmosphere on the back deck is 5 stars.

So I follow the Texas bucket list and this restaurant was rated number 1 in the season '24 for their 22oz bone in ribeye. But it only starts there, everything was delicious. From the baked potato, brussels sprouts, oysters, salmon, shrimp, to the bread. Everything was incredibly delicious. The Texas bucket list was right, that had to be the most delicious ribeye I've ever had and I'm sorry but im gonna say delicious a lot in this review. So that being said, my girl loves steak and oysters. So I had to bring her here for her birthday. Knowing this place was known for their steak and oysters. I don't think I've ever had a martini before coming here in my life. I've tried two here, the horchata and the mexian blue, both were wonderful. I just might be a martini person after this experience. But on top of the delicious food and the amazing experience, was our server /bartender Juilo. He made the experience that much more. He truly took care of us and that meant so much to the two of us. Thank you Julio for a wonderful experience. If I could I would rate this restaurant with 20 stars. Yes, it was that great!! If for whatever reason and we're back in town, we absolutely have to come back. P.S. it helps to make a reservation before coming here.

Liam’s Steakhouse and Oyster Bar in South Padre exceeded our expectations. The steak and salmon was delicious. The drinks as well. The hospitality of the staff was awesome. I came from out of town to celebrate my birthday and our server, Alejandro, went above and beyond with providing us amazing service. I highly recommend the restaurant.

Excellent seafood! Great service and ambience. Good for a date. The only minor negative is a relatively limited selection of white wines

This was our 2nd time visiting. There was an upgrade to the bread, which I instantly noticed. It is ABSOLUTELY delicious!!! Of course, it is pricey, but you get what you pay for. And why not enjoy a good meal waterfront? Treat yourself and go give it a try. Order the ribeye steak. Thank me later.
