Outside of work, you can likely find her curled up on with a hot cup of coffee, practicing yoga, baking, or exploring the beautiful Lone Star State (in particular, the vast and mystical West Texas desert).
It’s no secret that we love to fish here in Texas. In fact, many of us would consider ourselves experts – but just because we can catch ’em doesn’t necessarily mean we’re the best at the whole preparation part. So what if we could combine our own fishing abilities with restaurant-quality cooking skills. Well, at Fin’s Grill and Icehouse in Port Aransas, that’s exactly what happens.
You bring them your catch of the day, and they’ll grill it up right before your eyes in the most delicious way possible. See for yourself:
The motto at Fin's is "You Catch It, We Cook It," so be sure to reel in something big and tasty on your fishing trip! FINS will throw it right on the grill and serve it to you while you watch. How's that for guaranteed freshness?
As soon as you step inside, you'll be transported into an undersea wonderland. The walls are lined with paintings depicting fish, sharks, and other nautical creatures, and you'll feel as if you're entering their world - not the other way around.
The outdoor seating area is just as magical. Situated right on Aransas Pass, you'll have the pleasure of watching boats navigating the waters and leaving gently rippling waves in their wake. I truly can't think of a more relaxing setting to enjoy a meal in.
Oh, and let's not forget about the sunsets! We all know they're better here in Texas already, but something about watching day drift into night while sitting waterfront on a deck, eating a freshly caught meal, sipping a cold one, and having good conversation with friends just feels right.
So if you want your prized catch to be made into some delicious fried shrimp tacos or virtually any other seafood entree you can think of, come on down to Port Aransas and do a little fishing before you head to Fin's.
