  The front door was closed and to get inside you have to go around the building and on the back there is a wheelchair ramp so you go up the ramp to get inside the restaurant. The patio was open so we sat outside and ordered food. The food arrived in about 40 minutes. On the good note, the location is perfect and just a short walk from the water. The staff was friendly and the food was good. When you done eating and want to get out there is no entrance from the outdoor patio so you have to go inside and exit from the back of the building.

  We walked in and there were very few people here so we were nervous.  We sat down and the bartender was awesome.  Very nice and very quick.  We all ordered burgers and I got the "thriller".  Very very good especially for being "bar" food.

  I have no idea how I randomly ended up in Olcott, but I did, and thanks to this place being pretty close to Lake Ontario I figured it would be a good spot to sit, eat, and enjoy the view. My trip to Captain's Galley was kind of a weird one. The patio was open thanks to the good weather and there was only a couple of other people at the restaurant Saturday night when we were seated. The tables were pretty dirty but that sometimes does happen when it's plastic and outside so I can look past that. The menu is pretty basic for the type of seafood/burgers menu they have and has plenty of different options to chose from. I ended up ordering the fried clams basket with french fries. What is my issue with the Captain's Galley you ask? well, after reading some of the other reviews it seems to same problem most other people also had. My fried clams were cold, my french fries were cold, and on top of that, my girlfriend french onion burger was somehow also cold. The food didn't take all that long to make, so I'm very very confused how both meals manage  to come out at the same time, at/or below room temperature. Not a single thing on my plate tasted like it was cooked in the last 20 minutes. My girlfriends food at least had warm bread, however the french onion soup on the bottom, the fries, and the meat itself were all luke warm.
  
  Overall, this place had a friendly staff, and that was pretty much the only thing other then it's location it had going for it. I can get over dirty tables outside, but I can't look past 2 cold meals being served especially when it seems to be a reoccurring problem for this place. I can definitely say I won't be returning here in the future.

  Great food and friendly service. Recommend the beef on weck and fresh cut fries were excellent with special dipping sauce. Will definitely make a return trip.
