I've heard lots of wonderful things about Galleria Pizza from my coworkers. I'd have to say the food is simply good. It's not fine dining, but it's relatively cheap, quick, and tasty. The staff are all extremely nice and the space itself harkens to a diner of a simpler time. I had the burger and fries, which were both very fresh. Some of the fries were slightly starchy but overall I enjoyed them. They had a good flavor and a nice crisp. The burger was decent. Nothing life changing but good. I appreciate that the man I was ordering from told me about the special saving me a few bucks by bundling fries. That's some serious customer service. I also didn't have to wait long which was a nice surprise considering how busy the restaurant was. Overall I feel as if 4/5 stars for Galleria Pizza is appropriate because of their quick service for decent food at an okay price. If you're in the area looking for lunch, it's a great place to try! read more

Nice place to get a slice. Very efficient staff! Kind of reminded me of a diner setting, but specializing in pizza. They had a few pizzas out that you could choose a slice of, as well as a stromboli. The only vegetarian option was just cheese when I was here, but it was good! read more

One slice of pepperoni pizza was $5.02 post tax. Was it a good slice? Yes. Was it worth $5? Extremely debatable. Friendly staff, local pizzeria vibe. But it's definitely more pricey than the one $ on here makes it out to be. read more

I wanted to give everyone an update on Galleria Pizza. DELICIOUS! The guy at the front taking the orders (I presume to be the owner) was SUPER nice. Tables were clean, floors clean, portion sizes are decent for the price. You really couldn't ask for more! If you want something delicious, and home made, this is the spot. I had the chicken parm dinner, EXCELLENT!!! read more

My co-worker and I thought we discovered a secret new pizza spot no one knew about - we were wrong. In walking in the place was packed and had a little bit of a line. Most of the people were all people we worked with. Everyone assured us this was not a secret spot and was one of the best lunch spots around. IT IS! The Sausage Stromboli is my personal favorite but anything you get from there - you can't go wrong. read more

I was on a layover in Rochester and looking for a nearby place to have lunch. As a frugal person, I wanted something in the $ or $$ range. This place seemed appealing. I was greeted by a very friendly and gracious man at the register. They had great menu selections and a bunch of specials. I ordered the Galleria Plate which was 2 cheeseburgers (no bun, as it turns out), home fries and baked beans. The portions were great and tasted delicious. I will be back on my next layover here. Kudos! read more

Very friendly and willing to suggest things to the customers! I really enjoyed there hospitality. They let you know when your food was about to come out! The food is good quality! The prices are amazing you can't beat it! I recommend this place read more

Galleria Pizza - Cheese pizza! - Pizza Near Me - Rochester, New York

I was staying at the Holiday Inn on State Street in Downtown Rochester when I noticed an Open sign flashing in a little window across the alley. I took a walk over, and was pleasantly surprised. Their menu is extensive, along with the list of daily specials. I opted for the Chicken Cordon Bleu wrap, and it was delicious. The staff was very friendly, the service was good, and the restaurant was clean. I highly recommend this hidden gem if you're ever in Downtown Rochester. read more

Galleria Pizza - BEST HANGOVER CURE IN ROC! - Pizza Near Me - Rochester, New York

pizza was fine. the only bathroom was in the BASEMENT. and it was ranky stanky. not having a public restroom is where i draw the line! this feels a bit illegal; i'm disappointed. read more

Stopped in for a quick light and cheap lunch---none of the slices seemed too appealing (too much meat), so I had a spinach bread. It was under a heat lamp and then put in the oven, so that puts a limit on its freshness and texture, but the dough flavor was exceptional. And for $4 it was definitely satisfying and respectable quality. read more

This place is one of the most popular lunch time destinations in the downtown area. The abysmal dearth of reviews may easily be attributed to the fact that people tend to forget what they eat when they are at work. The fact remains that this is one of the best restaurants in the city not just for the food, which does speak for itself, but also for a personal touch that you rarely see today. As soon as its your turn in the queue, which is usually pretty long on a weekday, the owner greets you with a smile and calls you by your name because if you have ever been to his joint, he knows you by name! Try the chicken parm hot sub or the fish fry on a Friday afternoon. Or anything on the menu. Highly recommended. read more

I love stopping in here for a quick bite when working at my Rochester office. Service is friendly and quick. The food is excellent. In addition to pizza they have a wide variety of subs, sandwiches, dinners and wraps. Check out the specials board when you come in, there are many choices including some healthier options such as grilled chicken wraps. read more

After living here for a while and walking around downtown, Galleria is a place that I've been curious about. This week provided the perfect opportunity for it. Their hours are not catered toward "late night" food at all (my typical pizza go-to). Clearly most of their crowd is the lunch and early dinner crowd. This week, we had people in town before an event at the Blue Cross Arena and needed a place to get food for eight (including kids) that was walkable and would not take too long. Low and behold, Galleria is open until 6 on weekdays, so it worked out PERFECTLY. We walked in a little before five and were pleased to find out that apparently after 3pm there is a special on pizzas. For a 2 liter soda, four fountain drinks, and three large pizzas (cheese, pepperoni, and meatball), the total came to 35. Seriously. When we heard the price our jaws almost hit the ground. Everyone was really nice and we did not have to wait too long for the food. The pizza when it came out was absolutely great. The sauce on the pepperoni was nicely tart, the cheese was deliciously melty and you could taste the mozzarella, and the seasoning on the meatball pizza was spot on. Quality food for a crazy low price. I cannot recommend them more. The next day, my boyfriend and I went in for a soda to sit in the afternoon and the people were just as nice. They did not seem to mind that we got just a soda and believe me, I was tempted by their slices (Chicken French? It looked SO good). Galleria will definitely go into the rotation of Rochester pizza places. read more

Galleria Pizza is a wonderful breakfast and lunch spot located in the Reynolds Arcade building in downtown Rochester. Known for their pizza, they also feature a full menu including grill items and subs made from fresh bread. The staff is friendly, and the restaurant is clean and well maintained. If you want to try something different, I recommend their "breakfast pizza" that is topped with scrambled eggs, cheese and bacon. read more

My husband and I are in Rochester on business. Needed lunch and checked Yelp for a good wing spot. On reviews, we came here. GREAT decision! The wings and homemade sauce are outstanding! My hubby also had the turkey chili and the flavor was incredible. The owner took our order and was probably one of the most gracious business owners I've ever met. That is the great design of business and this place has it. Place was clean... even the cubby where forks are kept is cleaned out. These things matter. Wings and chili a must! read more

Came in on a Thurs. about a half hour prior to closing time. Although I was the only one there the staff were friendly and I felt welcome. I order the 12" Buffalo Chicken Finger hot sub. This sub is the real deal. Big a$$ homemade battered fried chicken breasts with a delicious buffalo sauce. The tenders were crisp and delicious. The bread was soft and toasted perfectly. Blue cheese dressing lined the sub alongside lettuce and tomato. This sandwich is HUGE and has some real weight to it, but I had no problem getting it all down. So delicious! I will definitely be back to try something else. read more

Galleria Pizza - Hot Sub - Buffalo Chicken Finger - Pizza Near Me - Rochester, New York

My review is based exclusively on their wings. They are straight up are amazing and I crave them all the time. They have a very unique homemade recipe for their sauce and their wings are cooked perfectly 99% of the time...which for me is well done and very crispy. The owner, Tony, is a very nice guy and one time even gave me a bucket of his sauce for a camping trip I had. I asked for the recipe but he wouldn't give it to me and gave me the sauce instead. Can you blame him though?? I've never had their pizza so I can't speak to that unfortunately... but definitely go there for the wings. read more

Stopped in on a whim for lunch today. There was a line of about five people however it moved very quickly. Had a chicken club with ranch dressing and it was very good. The service is quick and friendly efficient staff. I will definitely come back to try other items on their menu. read more

Galleria Pizza is amazing! Their portions are huge and the prices are pretty damn cheap. The owner knows who you are and if you're a regular, he'll remember your order like the back of your hand. I highly recommend this place for anyone who's look for great food! read more

Great food and excellent sized portions, a large variety on the menu, and as well as multiple daily specials, but the most noticeable thing is, the people who work there will make sure you receive the best service, it's a great get away for lunch from the stress of the daily 9-5. read more

I work downtown and this used to be the perfect quick lunch, slices were$3.50+ and they were huge, just like Pontillos pie slices! However, 2 years later and they're definitely NOT the same. The slices are still $3.50+ and they're the same size as the slices of those Tony's frozen pizzas, not nearly as large as they used to be! They promote $7-$8 xlarge pizzas during a particular time on particular days... that's an awesome deal considering you would normally pay half of that for 1 super tiny slice! Also, the Pizza isn't as fresh kept as it used to be as well. They used to have fresh slices around lunch time, but now they most often have slices that look old and they just warm them up in the oven... I don't mind that too much but you'd think they'd put out fresh pizza for lunch? Although, the food overall does taste delicious when it's fresh and warm. read more

Fantastic lunch severed with a side of wonderfully sassy waitress. Super nice folks and a delicious lunch. I had the buffalo chicken salad. It can be served grilled or fried. Very affordable too. Everyone in my party really enjoyed their lunches. read more

Came in here at lunch time and saw them doing some serious volume. The eating areas on both sides of the hall were packed. Ordered the fish sandwich, and it was more of a fish sub--huge, and the roll was delicious. My boyfriend got the burger special with fries. The food came out quickly, thanks to the guys behind the counter who were laboring with singular purpose. The only drawback was that I smelled like fried food for the rest of the day. Wait, drawback...hmmm. I would return. read more

I came here recently to try it out for lunch and although my lunch was very yummy, I wasn't really that impressed. There is a ton of seating which is nice and it was a great quiet place to eat lunch. There was no line so I was able to order what I wanted as soon as I figured out what it was that I did want. The staff was friendly and professional which is always a plus and unfortunately something that I have to actually comment on. I ordered a 6 inch chicken Parmesan sub for my lunch. The chicken was scrumptious and the sauce was also good. There was the perfect ratio of chicken to cheese to sauce however, I felt that there was too much bread for the sandwich. I felt like a good amount of my sandwich was just bread and that was disappointing. I also felt that it was kind of expensive. I paid $9 and change for my sandwich and a soda. That price didn't include any kind of sides. Overall, I will come back again just so they can try to redeem themselves but I will learn from the past and I will order a slice of pizza instead of a sandwich. I am interested in how their pizza will compare to pizza stop right across the street. Chances are after I give them the second chance, I won't come back unless nothing else is open. read more

Good pizza ! We had it delivered. The driver was not familiar with downtown and was very unprofessional. Luckily the food made up for his bad behavior read more

I work right down the street from Galleria pizza so i eat lunch here occasionally. I think they have the best hot subs. The are very friendly to any one who walks in the door. Very friendly people who work there. Great place to eat for lunch, nice dinning area. Great prices also. read more

Excellent meatball sub and pizza logs. I'll definitely eat here again. BIG portions and great tasting!

I absolutely love it here! It is a block from my work. When I order it it is hot and ready in a short time. Their quesadillas are awesome. The owner that usually runs the register is extremely friendly. He has started to recognize me and knows my name. The whole staff even back in the kitchen are very nice and efficient. Makes my day when I get lunch here. Great food and nice people. read more

I have been there a few times and the food was good, but I went there for lunch today and saw a very serious health violation and I will not be returning. I saw the line cook put raw meat on the grill and then immediately proceed to grab raw vegetables from the salad bar without changing gloves. The salad cook then proceeded to make salads and cold subs from the same containers that had been touched by the raw meat gloves. This spreads bacteria such as salmonella and can make people very ill. I will not be dining there in the future. read more

Great place for a quick lunch. I'm usually not a fan of by the slice pizza. Here, however, there pizza is pretty darn good!

It was my first time into this business today, but it definitely won't be my last! An excellent lunch choice tucked away right on E Main St. Great selection of pizza slices available, I highly recommend the Philly Steak with Boss Sauce. read more

I'm a little emotional right now so.....man this was so good. Got the Chicken Parm Pizza - it came earlier than they said, was hot, and the quality was amazing. Real tomato chunks, dough tasted fresh and homemade. Right what the office needed. Will absolutely make this the "goto" place for company lunches. read more

Was in Rochester for an overnight with the airline. Decided to give Galleria Pizza a try and bou was it delicious! I couldn't make up my mine but decided to have the 1w inch Philly Cheese Steak. This sandwich was amazing! The staff was very friendly and I will be returning next time I'm in town. I think I'll try the chicken parmigiana sub or an Italian next time. Thank you for the great food! read more

Wrong soda im diabetic food was cold driver went in the wrong way gonna try another place next time

They've been around for a long time and there's a reason. Good food and amazing customer service. Pizza is good, the hot subs are fantastic and whenever I've ventured to the rest of the menu or the specials they offer it's ranged from competent to pleasantly surprising. The service is incredible! They are always friendly, Tony (the owner) knows about 3/4's of the customers by name, and they are always helpful without being pushy and willing to do whatever it takes to make you happy. read more

Great service, great food. Ad the owner is there to ring you out and make sure everything is to your satisfaction.
