A quick restaurant question for the experts...

It's an East Coast legend that back in the mid-60's there were a number of
unique California pizza places which were built around rather grand pipe
organs.  One such chain was "Capt'ns Galley" which had at least three
locations in the Bay area (Santa Clara, Redwood and Campbell).

Do any such restaurants still exist or have they gone the way of the drive-in?

I have some relatives coming out for vacation the last week in July who have
always wanted to visit one of these restaurants.  If some do still exist, do
you have any leads as to their location?  Lastly, might there be any in the
Southland (I live in Irvine)?

Any help is greatly appreciated in this hunt.  Thanks!
