The tacos had their turn. Now fall’s bringing the big skillet energy. Meet East Texas Paella: shrimp, crawfish, calamari and tilapia sautéed with Snappy seasoning and garlic butter over basiled white rice, with grilled zucchini and squash. Texas took a trip to Spain. Naturally, we packed seafood.

Six mini lump crab cakes are sticking around with a fresh new setup and a side of house-made coleslaw. Same fan favorite. New boat-free life.

SUMMER’S LAST CALL: Two summer specials. Two very different ways to go out strong.

Go big with the High-Tide Seafood Tower, or go European with our Canned Meat Summer Specials—inspired by the tinned seafood and protein craze making waves across the pond.

Both swim off the menu after tomorrow, so this is your last chance to get in on ’em.
