About the restaurant
Alfonso Salazar, better known as “Dirty Al” originally started shrimping as a young man with his father and 6 brothers. In 2003, he and his youngest son, Cameron, who graduated from Culinary School, transformed his bait stand into a restaurant where together they have been known for having “The World’s Best Fried Shrimp”! In 2005, his other two sons returned home to help grow the business. To this day, they now own 7 restaurants on beautiful South Padre Island and across the valley and continue to bring only the “best” Gulf Seafood to each customer’s table.

Liam’s is always a great experience. Great food, great wine and when added to great company— can never go wrong. On this visit the chefs went the extra mile and prepared our black fin and Snapper fresh catch we brought in. Everything was made to perfection!!

Had a great table and our server, Christian, was the best!! The 6 of us enjoyed our food immensely. We were just a little surprised that the gratituity was included in our bill, since I thought it was only included in tables of 8 or more. Nevertheless it was a great dinner.

Elegant aroma with a new view. Food was delicious but would classify the atmosphere as a bit more on the drinking side. Still an amazing experience definitely going back.
