Not really. My MO for restaurants is: What am I (we) hungry for? Where haven't I eaten before? Is it local? Are the Google/Yelp reviews good? Ask the server or whoever what they like to eat, then order that.
They be dredgin’ to make land back in the day. There’s a neighborhood in Galveston called Lost Bayou that was a bayou that was entirely filled in with dredged dirt.
