Fish Place on Texas Avenue in La Marque began as a seafood market and, the house says, has cooked as a restaurant for more than twenty-five years. The room is now a bar-and-grill with lunch specials and a DJ on Thursday and Friday nights.
After twenty-six years with the Houston Police Department, the Kelley family opened Country Cookin' following a 1983 retirement. The La Marque room on the Gulf Freeway still plates chicken-fried steak, a one-pound Super K burger, biscuits and gravy.
La Marque’s three doors are all casual food businesses: country cooking, frozen treats and seafood. Kelley’s Country Cookin’ publishes a direct location page for its Gulf Freeway restaurant.
Kelley’s Country Cookin’ is the full-meal stop, while Snow King and Fish Place extend the set toward dessert and seafood. The trio is useful for choosing one straightforward meal rather than building a long itinerary.
Use Kelley's published Gulf Freeway location as the anchor, and call ahead for Snow King and Fish Place. These three are car-oriented and should not be treated as one walkable cluster.
