I always come to Henry's for breakfast while I am in Galveston. The plates are generous and everyone is welcoming.

We come to the Lonestar Rally year after year and have never stopped here. This year we decided to give it a try for breakfast. It was so good that we ate here all 3 days we were here. The food was delishious and the employees were all super friendly. The barbacoa tacos paired excepionally well with thier green salsa. The migas plate was also amazing. Their burritos are ginormous and very generous with the filling. Highly recommend this place.

This is another local go to here on the island. Their surprise breakfast burritos are famous, but they have a great selection of Salvadoran and Mexican dishes as well as fried seafood and burgers and PoBoys. Pretty much something for everyone, and the prices are reasonable making this a great place to go often. I'm making my way through the menu and I'm happy with everything I've had so far. Good stuff, on Broadway so you pass by it all the time. Still a winner .

Very nice staff! Helpful and welcoming. The restaurant is clean just wish it had padded seats! Wood table and chairs. My first experience was so so. The Chile rellano left a lot to be desired. I would go back and try other items on the menu, to be in business as long as they have there must be better food.

Came here a few weeks ago with two of my friends. We ordered the bean burrito and two chicken pupusas. One of my friends also had the tamarind drink. Lots of food for the money! Service was quick, and the restaurant has a parking lot. Overall, we had a good experience!
