Set on Offatts Bay in Pelican Rest Marina, Number 13 is an exquisite wooden structure surrounded by lush tropical foliage with a view of the Bay and its mega yachts.

Together they were know as "Number 13". The restaurant plays on this "what life on Galveston Island once was" theme with rustic wood structures and floor-to-ceiling windows.
