    I have been here a few times (brunch and dinner). The service, ambiance, and food are all top notch! I don’t go to the island without making a stop here! Thank you for having such a delightful place!

    The Fancy is delicious! I enjoy the Caesar salad, crudo, steak, and chicken and dumplings. I also love that they offer organic wines. Heard that they have a new burger on the menu and can’t wait to try that as well. The staff always makes me feel welcome and they are very attentive without being intrusive. 5 stars!!!

    Absolutely love my experiences at The Fancy in Galveston! We've dined there several times and from the moment I walked in, I am always blown away by the stunning mid-century modern decor. The sleek lines, elegant furniture, and warm, inviting ambiance made it feel like I had stepped into a chic, vintage dream. It’s the kind of place you can’t help but take a few pictures of because every corner is a perfect snapshot of style.The food is equally impressive. Each dish is beautifully plated and flavorful. The staff is always friendly and knowledgeable, guiding us through the menu with thoughtful suggestions.Can’t wait to return!

    Exceeded expectations!!We came to celebrate our anni and will absolutely be back again.You MUST try the caesar salad w the fish balls - very unique and delicious take on a classic.Bucatini was lemony and fresh - not too heavy at all.The Blackened Trout with the chow chow relish - h o l y m o l y - this dish blew my mind and taste buds!Side snap peas were nice and smokey.Only thing we didn't like was the chocolate tart - though beautifully presented, the crust was lackluster and texturally didn't work with the other components. We traded it in for a moist creme brulee cake dessert that was much better flavor and texture wise!Cocktails were great too!

    We came in late for our stay at Hotel Lucine and were grateful for an onsite place to grab dinner. My husband and I shared the flounder and it was so fresh and well cooked, our older children didn’t love the risotto they ordered but ended up eating most of it. We shared a few sides and they were wonderful! I love and appreciate scratch kitchens so waiting for good, fresh seafood is no trouble at all. It’s not an overly large restaurant, but I liked the decor and the evening ambiance.Note: don’t be in a rush, they are cooking the dishes from scratch and that takes time.

    It’s official: I’m starting The Fancy Fan Club y’all.We went to The Fancy at Hotel Lucine on a date night. We didn't know what to expect from it since it was new. We were blown away in the best of ways by the food, cocktails, and staff.The food is creative, nuanced, thoughtful, intentional, and well balanced AF. We kept thinking at some point a dish was going to let us down and not sing on a plate, but the hits kept coming with unforgettable tastes and textures. One win after another. Chef Leila is truly a rising star... Hello James Beard, come check out The Fancy! She’s one saucy chef putting poetry on a plate.Gage concocted us the most delightfully creative cocktails. He’s incredibly talented. Philip was on point all night making sure we were taken care of well. The hospitality was all around warm and welcoming. The Fancy mastered that elusive balance of being attentive yet respectful of your space and privacy while dining.We can't wait to come back again and again because The Fancy is hands down the BEST restaurant in Galveston.
