Inga’s Galley - Petersburg

Nice little spot for lunch seating is outside but there is a tent in case of rain. They did a great job with gluten free and the halibut tacos were quite tasty

I ate here whilst staying at Scandia House, next door. The restaurant is counter service and all outdoors. The staff on the counter were all really friendly. Service was quick even though the place was pretty packed. Really varied menu- the obvious seafood, burgers and some interesting Thai options too. I just had the fish chips which was a good sized portion. The chips were excellent and the fish was good although the breadcrumbs were a little tasteless. The price was a bit high for the set up/ quality but with little choice in Petersburg I don't suppose they worry too much about that!

While visiting Petersburg, I was hungry and stopped by Inga’s Galley. I got a spicy pork sandwich with fries. OMG! Best pork sandwich I ever had. After that, every day was there, I ate there again. Everything I had was really good. Egg Rolls? Awesome! Pork on a stick- the bomb. Thai food? Even better! What a great restaurant. Definitely stop there if you’re hungry!!

Husband and I had a delicious taco lunch here, served from a trailer type building. Our lunches were punctuated by very fresh fish, crispy coleslaw, and what looked and tasted like homemade taco shells. Rice was served on the side. There was so much food we could have shared one order. The only downside was having to eat outside at a picnic table, under a tent, with no portable heaters, on a cold and rainy June day. What lacked in ambiance was made up in the quality of the ingredients.

Popular Inga’s Galley is the equivalent of a food truck – but housed in a little shack with a large, inviting outdoor area. The menu is pretty eclectic and LOOKS great. It also seems to be really popular, but I really don’t know why. Maybe the big beautiful patio and garden? It can’t be the food, which was horrible the day we ate there. My husband ordered the shrimp with green curry and rice. It had a delicious curry sauce, but came with chicken instead of shrimp and really gross rice that was basically rice pudding mush. I ordered something with fish and fries, but I don’t recall exactly what because both the fish and the fries were so disgusting that I didn’t eat most of it. Along with bad food, expect slow, slow, slow service. And locals get preference over visitors, which makes it even slower. (That’s ok with me, but something to know in advance if you have limited time. Fortunately, they have a lot of games so we had a beer and played cards while waiting and waiting and waiting for our mostly inedible food. Honestly, I really wanted to like this place because it is cute and has an interesting menu – but the food was just really bad. The sad thing is, the things that made it bad could be easily fixed by someone who knows what they are doing. But until that happens, this is a great place to have a beer or soda, but go somewhere else if you want something to eat.
