Monument Inn - La Porte

I have been here several times and never had a bad experience. Staff always friendly, place is clean( even bathrooms), the view of the water is cool. It is upstairs , they do have a chair lift for those that need it. Banquet room is down stairs. The restaurant has huge picture windows overlooking the Feery Landing and the Houston ship channels. Lots of BIG ships! The food is amazing, lots of choices. It?s on the pricey side but we?ll worth it! I?d plan for minimum if $25 a person . The portions are good size. The homemade rolls and cinnamon rolls are crazy good ! It?s off the beaten path but very worth the short drive to the water.

If you get the all you can eat plate, you will not be disappointed. There is so much food and it was all so great. I couldn't recommend this place more if you want sea food! Starts with raw oysters, boiled shrimp and some great rolls. Second round is fried shrimp, fried oysters, fried catfish, stuffed crab, French fries and the finished of with some great cinnamon rolls. And you can get seconds and thirds of any of these! Definitely should try it out if you're in the area! The atmosphere and watching the barges float by while you eat is pretty cool as well.

Excellent food and service. Make sure you love fish, shrimp, oysters and all the other great stuff to eat. The blackened shrimp and salmon and crab cakes are delicious. The appetizers are out of this world especially the fried jalapenos with crab meat in it. Great scenery

Everything was fresh, hot, and absolutely delicious! The stuffed crabs were generously sized and packed with plenty of crab meat. The fried oysters were sweet, briny, and perfectly crispy. The fried shrimp and onion rings were cooked to perfection. With views of ships, barges, tugboats, and car ferries passing by, dining here is truly a delightful experience.

Treat yourself by visiting this restaurant! I found my salad a bit disappointing today. We ordered a fish sandwich and a fish platter, and since we weren't very hungry, both dishes provided more than enough food. Unfortunately, the fish was slightly dry and had a fishy taste. Overall, however, the experience was pleasant. Our server was quite busy but still took good care of us. We enjoyed the view, which reminded us of the romantic lunches we used to have there. And don't forget to save room for the delicious homemade cinnamon rolls and dinner rolls—they are simply fantastic! I believe they come with the platters, so be sure to check before making your entrée selection.
