Houston Yacht Club

As I member for 15 years I can testify the superb benefits of sailing at HYC. It is been in existence over 100 years with a friendly, down to earth group of people that share the joy of sailing. It has a renovated harbor that enables you to get sailing on the bay in 10 minutes!

We've been bringing our 7 year old son here for weekly sailing lessons for the last year. It's been great. Our son has learned to sail, and has gained self confidence. The coaching staff has been very good and they also emphasize teaching responsibility, which has been a big plus. Couldn't be happier.

I had a server named Haley. Horrible service. I lost my phone. She was the rudest most irresponsible server I have ever had. Long brown hair was found in my food and I am considering cancelling my membership

The food is outstandin; the service is Great; the atmosphere is exilerating every time we go there

Great food and drinks, wonderful service, fantastic views and always something to do for any age. Great access to the bay without having to deal with the Kemah channel. I know when most people think about yacht clubs they think "snooty", but this place is anything but that!

Love the food, people, environment! HYC is my second home and has definitely made my relocation to Texas so much easier!

We were there for Texas Youth Race Week and felt very welcomed. The grounds are clean and well kept. The slips look well cared for. The club house is gorgeous and huge. Everyone was welcoming and service was good. The amenities were great and the food was yummy. Very nice club.

This club is tucked away on the bay side of a small town. A small road makes you wonder what you will find at the end. Then appears a beautiful pink mansion overlooking Galveston Bay. Houston Yacht Club has the best views then any other yacht club in the area. We had such a good time sailing our boat, with direct bay access. The marina is well equipped with cranes, floating docks and a helpful members everywhere. We had a great time that evening as well. The dining room is eloquent & remanence of a time gone by. The food & service was better than I expected from a yacht club, with views of the pool & bay from every seat. The sunset could not of been more picturesque. The bar also overlooks the bay a breathtaking views off the balcony. Lively bar with live music where even the Commodore himself joined in with his guitar for a song or two.
Great place for the whole family!

I just experienced a wonderful Saturday evening at the Houston Yacht Club. The venue was amazing. Spectacular view! The food was delicious. And my hat's off to Ms. Dawn and her staff who worked so hard to every attention to detail and was ready to assist as needed. Everyone was very friendly and courteous. They were a lot of fun! I hope to return soon.

My family and I went to a quinceanera this weekend at the Houston Yacht Club. Of course we had a fabulous time!!!! First off, the club is adorable in its nautical decor and is so clean and comfortable. In addition to the DJ, fun activities and great company, we found that the food, venue, and staff were also all exceptional! My son and I LOVED the food! Why, I can't say enough good things about the food which was truly delicious and perfect for both adults and children. We had an Italian menu and it was so tasty! My son went back for seconds which is a huge compliment since he is so picky. I wanted more too because it was that good, but restrained myself. The moment we arrived at the venue, however, the magic took off. The guard at the gate was both cheerful and helpful and really set the tone for the night. It was dark when we arrived, so I can't really describe the outside appeal other than it was well lit and very well maintained thus creating a romantic setting. The moment we walked in through the double doors, our adventure really took off as we were warmly greeted by helpful staff who directed us to the party space. We had the entire second floor to ourselves which was nice and gave us different sections to partake in all the activities from signing guest books, to dining, to dancing. The entire time we were at the party, the staff did everything possible to create a friendly environment for us. The bartenders did an excellent job in making my drinks and even helped me make my selection. The wait staff was as polite and professional towards my family. I feel that part of the party's success was the staff's helpfulness and kindness in which they treated people respectfully, warmly, and above all professionally. It was a magical evening due to the hostess' great planning and to your facility's attention to detail. Thank you for a great experience. I would highly recommend your club and I would love to come back for more of your yummy food!!!!

I hate this place. The food is terrible and over priced. They can't even get a hamburger right. The only reason I've eaten here at all is because my parents are members and I think they like to play big shots for an evening. I don't understand how they've fooled themselves into thinking that it's a suitable dining venue but whatever. Guess they gotta justify their membership dues.

Service is also surprisingly surly at times.

As far as a place to park a boat, it seems decent enough.
