Captain's Galley — Restaurant in Fort Pierce

Went for a quick bite around 1pm. Was greeted at outside tables by woman who looked at us like we were offending her. I'm hoping they'll she was just having a really bad day or did not usually work with the customers. She scowled at us and said "Yeah?" , like what are you doing here? We told her that we would like to eat, duh. She said "I'll go get someone". I don't think that I have ever felt less welcome at a restaurant, but having experience in that field, I sensed correctly, & she didn't wait on us. I would have left, otherwise. Our waitress was nice enough. I got steak quesadillas. Bad choice. I know that isn't a Hispanic restaurant but I was tired of chicken & fish. They brought me chopped steak, that they use in subs with cheese.No onions, not one thing else. It was cooked right & they did give me some sour ream & a small amount of pico de gallo. I think that this a country restaurant that specializes in meat & potatoes & probably really good breakfasts. Don't be fooled by the name, if looking for a true seafood restaurant. We had never been there and I'm sure that some of their items are good. I do think that is more of a landlubber's place, as I saw meatloaf, porkchops & mashed potatoes, on the dinner menu. I'm only sharing my opinion and those who know & love this place, please don't take offense. Im trying to help people who know nothing about where to eat in Fort Pierce & hopefully steer them to a place that is more seafood oriented . They do have fish & shrimp on the menu, but it didn't seem to be the main attractions. Could be wrong, though. Do need to have a talk with the woman.( she was cleaning tables, outside) Blonde hair, middle-aged. Wow, what a bad attitude toward her customers. I would try this place again though, but only...

We wanted breakfast after a 40 minute walk and wanted something that was close to where we had just walked. We saw this place, the menu and the proximity and decided to check it out. Very glad we did! The place is only open for breakfast and lunch and it is frequented by locals from what we could tell. We were seated as soon as we got there, we asked for outside and we sat under a big tent that has been installed on the parking lot (social distancing and all that stuff). Menu was extensive and had a huge selection of both sweet and salty stuff; from crabs egg Benedict to Belgian waffles and huecos rancheros. Brie was a really nice waitress and new the menu. She recommended the freshly made banana bread (I guess they make different ones) and when I asked what she recommended, she quickly said the huevos rancheros bowl. We also got the crab egg Benedict. The food that came out was delicious! The banana bread had been grilled and was sweet, crunchy and had powdered sugar on top. The huevos rancheros bowl had tater tots, spicy chorizo, beans, crema, pico de gallo, avocado, eggs l, and two crispy yet fluffy chips that were made right there! The crab eggs benedict was delicious too with its hollandaise sauce. The restaurant was busy but not crazy busy and nothing felt rushed or awkward with the social distancing thing. Definitely will...

Used to love this place, however, the level of dining atmosphere, food presentation, and food quality/proportions hav significantly dropped off during this summer. I have dined at this establishment for years, but this summer was by far the worst. The normal Winter manager travels up North for the Summer (Sorry I don't recall her name). Her replacements lack her passion, food quality and appearance control. Previously, you received a warm welcome upon your arrival and the service and food proportions were top-notch. Lately, it has turned into just another below average diner with the food proportions getting smaller and the presentation bland and lacking. One used to have the plate garnished with a slice of citrus and maybe some greenery, but no longer. It's not that many eat the garnish, moreover, its about showing love and caring for the plate you're presenting for which the customer is paying. Visual appeal is just as important as flavor. The current staff can be overheard complaining about there work conditions, pay, and how they can't wait to get off work. Please bring the old management back and restore it to a wonderful...
