In 1998, there lay a vacant lot with three vacant houses. The land was prime, yet undeveloped, and the houses were set to be demolished. Our founders set out to save the houses — picking them up, bringing them here, and building a restaurant from them. After many months of hard work, their dreams became a reality and The Spot was born. Over the past two decades, we've been on a mission to deliver “Beachfront Day and Night Done Right.” Whether it’s their first time on Galveston Island or they’re seasoned locals, our guests come for our mouthwatering burgers, locally sourced seafood, and homemade desserts. In fact, nearly everything we serve is made in house every day. From hand-dipped onion rings to gulf shrimp breaded to order, we take flavor seriously. Plus our fun, family atmosphere and commitment to fast, friendly service keeps guests coming back. Five Venues. One Spot. All Beachfront. Discover Island Famous.

This place is an absolute gem! The food is delicious and the view can't be beat! Grab a Greek burger before it goes off the menu! Ryan, Vanessa and Suhay are so friendly and courteous!

The view on the patio is the best thing about this place. I was extremely disappointed in the food quality. I ordered the turkey burger and it lacked flavor. By all the stuff that it had on it you...
