Galley

The 3 star reviews that they had from other Unilocalers were accurate.
This isn’t a repeat for us. Service is fine, food wasn’t any better than frozen. We got the cod (tasted frozen), trout (over cooked), salad bar (eh.) a grilled cheese (cheese came from a plastic wrapper), the chili was pretty good though.
It wasn’t so bad that we sent anything back. But it also wasn’t good enough to bring home leftovers.
If we do deserts we will stop by the grocery store instead of ordering it here.

I love taking my boyfriend here for the all you can eat fish. I love how thin the fish is and always have to get some fried clams I would recommend this place to any sea food loving person. Great value and wonderful staff!

Good if you go for fried fish. Very nice salad bar. Staff couldn’t be nicer!! and the restaurant is very, very clean!!!
We enjoyed our visit.

So you go to a wedding or you’re on a long flight and the question is: do you want the chicken or the fish? NOT HERE. I’ve seen the complaints. Don’t overthink it. Just get the fish. It is called The Galley for gosh sakes. Get it?! Get the fish sandwich combo or fish sandwich. Don’t get anything else. This place is not about the quality of the fish, but the special batter they use for frying the fish. I haven’t tasted another like it. And it tastes great.

Have been eating at The Gallery for years. Monday and Tuesday they have a ayce fish and chicken buffet which comes with fries and salad bar. Excellent!!! I advise to try the French dressing on the salad bar. By far the best I’ve ever had.

I always get the fish. Some nights they have a buffet with fried chicken too. The salad bar is basic and small. Server was prompt and efficient with our order and drink refills.

Let’s start out by saying the fish was good, not great but above average, the fish itself was thin like someone on here said but in relation to the batter, it was just right. The salad bar was very basic and you could tell a lot of the ingredients were cheap. The Waite staff was very nice and for how busy the place was did a pretty good job. The atmosphere wasn’t very good and the place was dated and tacky and when I say tacky I mean literally. The tables had that real tacky feel they get when they need to be refinished. They feel dirty and sticky, drives me nuts. Overall I would go back if I really craved fish but would not make it a habit or regular place.

We decided to try out The Galley for lunch. Their special Thursday was Swiss Steak with potatoes and green beans with a dinner roll and cole slaw. The steak was bland, the green beans were very good as was the dinner roll. The fries were cold and hard. The steak was also rather tough. Unfortunately the lunch was rather disappointing and the next time we try them out we will try the shrimp. Price for the meal was extremely reasonable but unfortunately the quality was lacking. The need to add mushrooms to the gravy on the steak and provide more gravy on the steak.

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 décor 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!

I made the mistake of ordering «The Captain’s Platter» while working in South Dakota. It was awful. All of it direct from the freezer, and all of it was chopped and formed. The So. Dakota place was a GP restaurant and The Galley is a «seafood restaurant» but still over 1000 miles from the nearest saltwater. The décor is Indiana Nautical including a salad bar built out of an old wooden row boat and their sign proclaims «Home of Our Famous Fish». Do I take another shot? Lock and load, hope for the best and expect the worst.
The «famous fish» is Cod, and fried, and frozen but at least it is a piece of real Cod. Not some triangular machine shaped «product» and is not overly breaded by some crumb-​O-​matic 5000 machine.
It is probably the best fish that a sailor is gonna get in Northern Indiana and the salad bar is probably the best west of Harrisburg PA and east of Saint Louis. They have Amber Bock on draft a suitable reason for my making a return trip.

I hate fish but I love the Galleys fish. It tastes like fish u would eat@ a local fish fry. Service is great, people are friendly and they have an all u can eat fish and fries 7 days a week.
My wife got to the salad bar, nothing has changed there in 32 years. Its average but let’s be blunt, as their sign says, Home of our famous fish.
There are some baked items. Beer and wine along w/​Pepsi products. There also is a bar. They also have steaks, King Crab Legs and Lobster Tail.
We gave it a 3 star due to the less than par salad bar. We enjoyed the fish.
