This place is fantastic. They have a great selection of sandwiches, burgers and other plates that are always changing, always fresh and always unique. Whatever slaw they have as a side option is always fantastic.... (more)

I dined here at least once a month since it opened its doors (in 1998 or 1999, I think) until shortly before Ike. The employees and owner were always friendly and helpful, and the cuisine was slightly unusual and very... (more)

I have never really been a fan of this cafe, but after yesterday, I will NEVER return. We tried to take a co-worker here for her going away party, and the owner threw a FIT b/c we tried to bring in a cake with us. I tried... (more)

My family and I were in Galveston this past summer and asked a few locals where to eat on the island - every single person we asked mentioned this restaurant as being their favorite. We were far from disappointed - their... (more)

<b>The Scene</b><br>Urban escapees, bleached-blond locals and foreign-tongued tourists swarm this chichi coffeehouse nestled in Galveston's historic district. They've heard about the lovable... (more)

We had dinner here and was so impressed we came back for breakfast. The food was different and delicious. It made you feel you were a regular in a small time cafe. Despite being rated as not kid friendly, my 12 year old was... (more)

Mosquito Cafe is a rare find in Galveston. The food was delicious and there were plenty of vegetarian options. I had some sort of pesto salad that was more than I could eat. The blueberry tea was a hit with me and my... (more)

This is one of the few places on the island to eat if you prefer vegetarian cuisine. What's great is the fact that ANYONE can eat there. The health nut is a revolving dish that usually includes grilled veggies, brown... (more)

I have never eaten something from Mosquito that I didn't like. From the chick stack, to the breakfast bowls, to the delicious scones-- everything is wonderful. The service is fantastic. The only reason I don't eat... (more)

Well-run for Galveston. Certainly they express a certain originality, which isn't always a good thing, mind you. Probably one of the few healthy choices in town. (more)
