Monument Inn - Seafood restaurant in La Porte - 4406 Independence Pkwy, USA

What a wonderful places with a beautiful view from the place that I seat yesterday. U can see many ships will passed if u choose the seat close to the window. And there's a ship to bring a car to accros the ocean too. It'a beautiful. But there's a moment a lil bit shock from me coz I need to try Fried Alligator. Oh my Gosh.. 😬😬😬. I never eat before. And yeah.. the taste same like as a chicken. It's nice and delicious. I think, if u come to this Restaurant. U should try 🫰. Thank you for the great service 😍😍😍. Big hug from Indonesia 🇮🇩🇮🇩

We all have that one place that makes the dish "Just the way you like it!".. the Monument Inn restaurant is mine.. I go for all things creole!! The Crawfish Etouffeé is the best I have ever had.. when it comes to Crab Cakes outside of New England this is a must and feel free to order an entree of them for the table if there isn't something on the appetizers menu (but I also recommend the fried alligator if you are with kids). I always find myself getting and putting down a couple carafes of iced tea because it is so good.. Didn't take pictures of my meal because I was with colleagues but here are a few pictures from the table of the ships passing by and from the journey across on the Ferry.

There are sooo many seafood places around the area, but it is well worth the drive to come here. The food here is absolutely wonderful, and the prices are very reasonable for what you get compared to others. The cinnamon rolls that come with your entrées are delicious. It is also fun to see the ships going up and down the river while eating your dinner. Make sure to add this place to your favorites list.

THE VIEW is beautiful, over looking the water, and you can watch big ships passing by. THE SERVICE is always great. THE FOOD I give it a 3 stars, the reason I give it a 3 stars because I had a way better seafood at other restaurants, there is nothing really special about the food, there are some restaurants you really crave their food, and monument Inn is definitely not one of them. I will recommend it just because of the view. THE PRICES, Expect to pay $25-$35 per person, but some plates are big and you may share. Expect a long wait time during weekends 45-60 minutes, and the bar area is small. Please check the photos and read the caption.

This is standard restaurant with the most beautiful Channel view in Pasadena. The food in average is good, the fried shrimps didn't cover my expectations but the fish and steak looks better options.

2023-July The food and service were both excellent. The blackened redfish was well seasoned, garnished with shrimp and in all ways delighted. Monument Inn is also known for their crab cakes which are also delightful. The service was attentive and responsive. Seating, even with a long line, was snappy.

First time here, enjoyed the food and service. Some stuff was a bit salty but overall great. Had the broiled crabcakes, grilled shrimp, and shrimp and mushroom pasta. Their crab stuffed jalapeños is a must try. Don't have the coffee.

Been coming here most of my life. Still the best seafood. Our waitress was very nice and personable. They do need to make the elevator more available to the handicapped.
