Dining out is one of our favorite family activities! It’s so great to get out and try something new, or break up the mid-week monotony with an old favorites, but once you have kids, all of those entrees add up!
My sweet bestie and adventure buddy Danielle (who is the creator and head honcho for Blessed in SETX) started this running list several years ago, and we recently collaborated on updating it for 2021. Between the both of us, we have such a passion for Southeast Texas and want to see these local communities thrive. We want our friends and neighbors to see the good and love where they live! So, we collaborate often and try to bring as much quality info as we can to make your life as a family in Southeast Texas easier and more fun.
The list has undergone some drastic changes from recent years, but there are still some great options that we personally love and know you will too! Notice that it’s not just chain restaurants, but there are great local options as well!
Note: We’ve done our best to follow up with each restaurant, but some locations change their specials without notice or warning. Always call ahead and check before you go! Some specials are based on specific locations and to the restaurants’ discretion. Please let us know if you run across a deal that is no longer acknowledged by the restaurant. We will quickly update the list based on your feedback.
