ate lunch there the other day, as I had a hankering for boiled seafood.
boiled crawfish were med to large w/great flavor at $4.50 lb.; corn .50 a piece; potatoes $1.50 for 2
the boiled shrimp were ginormous at $13.99 lb w/about 20 in that "lb."
the table next to me were enjoying oysters on the half shell and the char grilled oysters, both on the specials board...wish I had brought my glasses. the oysters were also ginormous. they must have been really good, as they didn't share.
this place continues to be a favorite of mine for peel n eat of the purged and binged.

Galley Seafood
After Mon & Tues, even the calendar says W-T-F!
Re: Galley Seafood
Their boiled seafood is consistently great. Everything else on their menu is pretty good, but has skyrocketed in price, to the point of being really unreasonable.
I got 50lbs of live, select crawfish from KJeans last Friday that were on the large side of medium and I paid 3.25/lb for them. Well worth it.

Re: Galley Seafood
That is my problem based on my two visits over the last few months. I can't remember the exact price, but I got 6 crabs two weeks ago and I thought it was around $22 or so.buzd wrote:Their boiled seafood is consistently great.

Schaffers in Bucktown had crawfish for $2.35 a pound this weekend if you purchased 10 pounds are more. I know they are not quite as big are good, but I don't know if I can justify the price difference.
I also had a plate of white beans and shrimp last time I went and it was excellent for a pretty normal price.

Don't drink a beer there. You'll have to take out a loan.
Now this is more like it.

Re: Galley Seafood
are we comparing prices on boiled eat-in to live takeaway?

Re: Galley Seafood
I wasn't. I expect to pay more for eat-in boiled seafood, and I think the Galley is reasonable in that regard. Everything else there is ridiculous ($24 entrees, $7 onion rings, etc).edible complex wrote:are we comparing prices on boiled eat-in to live takeaway?
