Taste Why Sudie’s Seafood House Is Considered a League City Institution

Sudie's Seafood House is a family-owned Texas institution that melds the delightful cultures of the Gulf region to create delicious, affordable food. For more than 25 years, Sudie's has been satisfying hungers and tantalizing taste buds.

The menu here is extensive; however, regulars note that the roast corn and shrimp chowder is Sudie's stand-out dish. This spectacular soup is such a popular choice that the kitchen often has to hustle to make a new pot in the middle of the day. It’s sweet, savory, and absolutely delicious. Pair your soup with an order of fried catfish, another specialty here. This delicately flavored menu offering is accompanied by hush puppies, pinto beans, cole slaw, and fries, all of which are top-notch. Save room for dessert, as Sudie’s bread pudding is not to be missed!

La India Bonita: Visit the Little Taqueria That Could

La India Bonita is a little hole in the wall eatery that doesn’t take credit cards, doesn’t deliver, doesn’t have Wi-Fi or TV, doesn’t have hipster decor, and doesn't have a wait staff in cute uniforms. What this League City restaurant does have is some of the most delicious, authentic tacos and tortas this side of the Rio Grande. You'll be happy to chow down on smoky barbacoa tortas or chorizo tacos, and regulars say you should definitely remember to help yourself to some of the free charro beans at the salsa bar.

Place your order at the window, grab a soda or a lemonade from a cooler of Mexican drinks, and take your red plastic basket of food into a little yellow booth in the tiny dining room to enjoy. You'll be glad you've taken a cue from the crowds that pack La India Bonita every lunch hour.

Grab a Quick Bite at Antonini’s Subs & Steaks

Antonini's Subs & Steaks serves a variety of Philly-style sandwiches with larger-than-life Texas proportions. When you order a turkey sandwich, for example, you'll get at least a couple of inches of shaved turkey heaped up between the bread. A meatball sub comes packed with oversized meatballs and melted cheese oozing out either end. And since the shop's owner is from the Philly area, you know you can get an authentic Philly cheesesteak at Antonini's. You'll also see evidence of the owner’s heritage in the variety of quality Italian cured meats this shop stocks, and Yelpers say Antonini's salami, pepperoni, and pastrami can't be beat.

There are a few small tables against the walls for diners who want to eat their subs in the restaurant, but this shop mainly runs a thriving take-out business, so feel free to pick up a quick meal on the go.

Go For the Sliced Brisket at Spring Creek Barbeque

Texas has a great reputation for barbecue, so it’s not surprising that League City has more than its share of excellent places to get slow-cooked meat. One of the most popular is Spring Creek Barbecue, a chain with multiple outposts all over the state.

Other popular choices include the ribs and the sausage. For sides, opt for the fried okra and the cornbread.
