Lobster missing a claw
Courtney L.

If I could give this negative stars, I would. This was one of the worst dining experiences I've ever had. I had a party of 6, they said it would take 30 minutes... no problem I guess? There were only 3 tables in the dining room taken. Other people started to walk in and the host was no where to be found, when they came back they had the worst attitude. Not to mention the uniform... were those fishing boots?? Man... We finally get sat, and the server sucks!! I asked about bourbon and she looked at me like i was an idiot. I then just said "liquor? bourbon?" she said she didn't know. Ok... Fine, i'll get a beer. I waited 30 minutes for this beer because the bar was apparently "backed up". How was it backed up when no one was in the restaurant!? When she comes back with my beer it's in an unopened can... she didn't ask me if i wanted a glass or anything, just an unopened can. The crab legs had like no meat in them. There is a reason they offer to toss it in sauce... it covers up the fact that there's nothing in there. Waitress didn't ask us about dessert just offered to bring boxes. She tried to be nice at the very end. No manager table touches, not sure if one was even present. my expectations already weren't high... 0/10 would recommend oh... pretty sure there was a dead lobster in the tank missing a claw as well.

Not a very busy location for the wait to be so long but overall the food was good. Had to request silverware and napkins. Endless shrimp was limited due to the wait time to bring it out. Request additional orders as soon as you get your food.

Shrimp with new dressing

After seeing the commercials on TV of the new lobster dishes - I had to try...they looked so good! Unfortunately the lobster and stuffed shrimp dish was a big disappointment. I literally got 3 bites from the lobster tail, no drawn butter was served, the shrimp were not stuffed but rather had little dollops of the new dressing on top. The shrimp were very small. The meal cost over $40.00 and that was with a 10% discount. The glass of unsweetened tea was $3.69, no refills either. I know inflation is having dramatic effects on the cost of eating out - but the quality and quantity of this meal was terrible. What a waste of $40.00!

The first time that I came here was right before Christmas around lunch time. My daughter and I wanted to order take out. We went to the bar and waited for almost 30 mins for the bartender to take our order. After waiting 45 mins after ordering had to track down the bartender again to ask when the food would be ready. AN HOUR after we placed our order, the food finally came out and the bartender was rude. That was 90 mins to order and wait for 2 plates of food for takeout. Last Sunday, my daughter wanted to eat here for her birthday. We sat down at 1:20 and ordered immediately because we wanted our food ASAP. After waiting and waiting, our food came out 50 mins later and the order was wrong. I stopped the manger and he went back to the kitchen. An hour after ordering, we had our corrected plates and were so frustrated we just put them in boxes and left. Aside from the wait time and rude bartender, the tables and walls were d

This last visit was for Valentine's Day and my wife and I received great service "even thought they were packed", and as always their food was great.

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.

It's amazingly fresh!! And the service is great. You can feel there's a standard here. I've eaten at another seafood joint in Hickory and the best thing about that plate was the slaw. Yikes. But outside of a coastal seafood meal, it's that good. Seriously, a great experience each time. 5 visits now- still good!!

Server was really nice!…read more The beautiful murals on the walls have been painted over with a depressing grey-blue. They look kinda dusty and dirty. The seats are worn. The food was underseasoned and bland. Uninspired. Somehow, the stuffed crab was burnt and undercooked. The shrimp and scallops were overcooked, and unseasoned. The flounder was bland, and had a hard uneven texture. The oysters were out of a can I could get for a dollar. It looked like some of the cooks were not wearing hairnets, and would come out of the back and sit in a corner. I got sick from eating and was gagging for at least an hour after leaving. I called the restaurant to warn them to check for any contamination, and the employee who spoke [supposedly a manager] said their food was fine. I've been nauseous for an hour now. Would not recommend. This places glory days are long gone, and their customers are in danger of getting food illnesses.
