Galgen fulfills that need and then some by being in a charming neighborhood and a local haunt. The staff are super friendly and the food is exactly what one would expect from a diner in an up and coming city (Like Portland before being discovered). The atmosphere makes it a great place to hangout and the patio feels like its ready to host a cookout.

However, it wasn't much either. My wife ordered the pulled-pork sandwich. That was a disappointment. As the fries was over-cooked, burger-bread on the sandwich. When the menu stated another sort of bread. So, a bit of laziness there, I suppose. I had a gazta tarta, which wasn't to bad. A decent serving and nothing to pin my fingre on. The place itself was beautiful and cozy. The back-garden was a gem in the area. We just hoped for more. My wife was hungry and had to eat. So, the rest of us just had smaller items. That's why I only had a cake. It could have been better. Just not it really.
