Galley the

I've been coming to this place since I was a kid for over 35 years. Previous iteration was a Gropp's Fish of Stroh - same decor and recipes I think but location is south of original from decades back.

It's dependable. Maybe 3.5+ stars.

I don't believe their famous fried fish is cod - a delicate white fish though.

Our party of 3 got the fish sandwich & claw chowder, an AYCE fried fish meal, and the chicken wing platter w/ fries and cole slaw (sounds funny - chicken wings in a fish place - but it is delicious and a standout).

You don't roll in here expecting cuisine and fine dining but after you've been around the menu - you glean the diamonds.  All 3 orders were as expected, served promptly and at the correct temp (the wings were lava hot from the fryer!!).  

I'm a very good cook -but - I actually wish I could bread and fry fish just like this!  Better than beer battered fish and chips in my book. It's my standard for this fare.

All of us were happy and we'll return.

This is place to go in town.  Well that was what i was told.  Seafood in farm country, yeah not what I was thinking.  So the relates took me to the best seafood around!  The star of menu is the all you can eat "cod" and it comes with salad bar, well its actually a boat.  The salad bar is the same you find any where not bad, but not great either.  The "cod" is thinnest piece of fish between fried breading.  I opted for stuffed flounder, again lot of stuffing but little flounder.  Side note stuffing had crab meat in it and was better flavored than overcooked flounder.  The baked sole looked best and it was swimming in lemon juice and butter.  It was cooked very well and flaked perfectly.  The last menu item was fish sandwich and it had more fish than all the other entrees. The meals were $11-$14, and all little scimpy but you dont have a lot of options here for seafood.

The Galley is very affordable. I eat here frequently getting a carry-out or dining in the restaurant. I love the fish and tarter sauce. The fish is the best I have ever had. I also like their salad bar. Everything is always full and fresh. The service has always been top notch. I have never had to wait around for a refill or my bill. Everyone is always so friendly. If you are looking for great food and friendly service without breaking the bank then you need to eat at The Galley!
