After this morning’s Flamingo Fest photo group meet-up at the San Diego Zoo, I got together with my friend Bryan (who was also at the meet-up) to enjoy a Father’s Day lunch at The Galley at the Marina<\/a> in Chula Vista. Since his family was out of town and my father stopped being a few years back, we both found ourselves looking for a good meal to partake in.<\/p>\n

I couldn’t wait to chow down on my usual tuna melt with house chips. The Galley makes one of my favorite versions of that sandwich and their house chips are fantastic.<\/p>\n

That was the ordering plan anyway.<\/p>\n

I was stomach-broken to find out that for Father’s Day they started their dinner menu early (since those items are conveniently more expensive) and neither tuna melts nor house chips were being prepared. Lunch fail.<\/p>\n

I decided to instead order the Portobello Melt (getting any kind of melt seemed important to me) with fries. It tasted fine but was really messy to eat, and the sliced mushrooms turned the sourdough bread a dirty, charcoal-ish color in many spots. Plus it was a lot more filling than I was expecting. I couldn’t even finish the sandwich portion.<\/p>\n

The meal was good, but not great. Not sure I would order it again. The service though was really good, which doesn’t always happen there. Our waitress, even being noticeably quite pregnant, was hurrying from table to table making sure all the guests were happy and content.<\/p>\n

This was the first time I had a meal with just Bryan and me. I would have no problem doing it again since he’s good company, and especially since his wife is probably reading this.<\/p>\n

Hi, Heather!<\/p>\n
