The menu changes from time to time, I've seen and tasted great appetizers like blistered shishito peppers, butter bean hummus, grilled octopus and beyond. For dinner and for me, sorry folks, it's Oysters. They always have an amazing, fresh selection of wonderful oysters from east and west. The service staff is always great and full of southern hospitality. 9/10 of the time I sit outside in the back, it's covered, and heated when cool or fanned when hot. If you're into oysters or other really good, fresh raw options, you gotta check this place out.

This was our first experience and it definitely won't be the last. Where do I begin....well, from the very beginning, when we walked in, we were met with a pleasant hostess, who was smiling and eager to assist. We were immediately seated and greeted by our waitress, who was very knowledgeable and able to provide us with every detail of the menu, as well as, offer food suggestions. It was hard for us to make a decision because they offer a wide variety of choices. Our food arrived fairly quickly considering that it was Father's Day and pretty busy. The food was excellent and full of flavor. You could certainly tell that it was cooked and prepared with skill....remarkably good! We are some pretty hard people to please and they certainly exceeded our expectations! The customer service and professionalism by the owners and staff is outstanding! We were greeted by the owner, Mrs. Chanika who came over and introduced herself. She shared stories with us about the establishment and also checked on us throughout our dinner. I was highly impressed. After dinner, we sat outside on the benches in front of the restaurant and discussed what a delightful evening it was. They offer such a comfortable and welcoming environment and we did not want to leave! The Galley made Father's Day an enjoyable and memorable experience for my husband and his brothers! We are already planning our next visit.

I am from the Chicago area and miss my black angus steaks. This is the closest i can find in the area to provide quality beef. You can't ask for better staff every time i have been. They will talk with you and inform you in things that you don't know or understand about their products for sale. It does reasonable what you would expect from a fish market, and obviously the fish smell is there. So if that bugs you sorry, i am not a fan but it is what it is.
