Kemah WAS a marvelous place to spend a quiet afternoon enjoying a leisurely meal and watching boats on the water years ago. Since the Landry's conglomerate engulfed the waterfront, nothing is marvelous, quiet or leisurely. Huge structures have all but eliminated the view. The atmosphere is contrived and formulaic. Meals are a nightmarish affair that begin with hourlong (or more) waits for a table in mobs of people punctuated by poor service from surly waitstaff and finally (mercifully) ending with cold food and an outrageous bill. Where's the good food? Where's the fun? The golden arches are a better alternative than any Landry's megopolis. They don't care; they don't have to.
Pros: Aquarium
Cons: Extremely overpriced, Crowded, Lousy Service
