    We love Gallo's, they served good food and have good service all the time. I always get Calamari and Tuna salad, my husband always change but his favorite was the fish! Last time we were there he ordered burger but he got chicken sandwich instead....... It would be nice if they also get great butter that come with their bread!

    Monk Fish (today's special)
    Lori K.

    We've rotated Gallo into THE place to go when we are on this end of town. The restaurant is casually elegant with beautiful artwork. Bread with an olive oild and balsamic oil dip is part of your dining experience. Delicious! The regular menu features small plantes, sandwiches, pizza, steak, seafood, chicken and pasta. But the specials menu is where I order. Their Grouper is spectacular but today I had the Monk Fish and it was phenomenal! Hubby orders the burger every time. Juicy, 1/2 pound, Angus Beef. Served with hand cut fries. Deserts are available on the specials menu but I'm never save room.

    Spaghetti Bolognese
    Mallory L.

    I have heard many great things about this locally owned spot. I wanted to try it in particular because I'm on the search for the restaurant which does the best bolognese sauce. We both ordered the bolognese pasta. The server was very knowledgeable about the menu, even though we still stuck to our original order. It was quite busy when we came on a weekday evening, they were doing brisk business with plenty of customers there which is always a good sign. In terms of the sauce, it was good. I don't believe they use any wine in it, and it probably takes a couple hours to make, not simmered all day. I would come here again and try other things on the menu.

    Rude manager absolutely not a sole in outside area and we were not able to sit for a minute. Being a disabled vet doesn't matter. Would not recommend. I know why they aren't busy...

    I have never been to a Gallo's before, but went a couple of weeks ago for a friends birthday dinner. There is a parking lot in the back, but it's shared, and can get full at dinner hour. I found a spot, but the lot seemed fuller when I left. My friends and I were scrambling to find a place that could accommodate 16 people on a Friday night with only a couple of days of notice, and Gallo's on High came through. The service was great-- I cant remember our servers name, but they paid a lot of attention to our party. I tried two different salads, which were both well-dressed, and of acceptable portion size. The burger tasted quality, would recommend. The mashed potatoes and lollipop lamb chop were also worth mentioning. I would definitely stop by again for drinks with friends or for a dinner date.

    Red curry mussels
    Melanie S.

    I've enjoyed my visits to Gallo's Taproom and was excited when they opened a new location down the street. Like their other location, they offer daily specials to mix things up. My friend and I had wanted to check out Parley Sporting Club downtown for mussels, but noted that they didn't receive the best reviews and decided to go to Gallo's instead. The restaurant is a on the smaller size, with a rather large bar. There was a TV on, but it was silent, and some nice artwork. Mid-week, the staff were friendly and it wasn't crowded. We did go at about 5, so more people came in as we were wrapping up. We went on a Wednesday, which is Wine Wednesday, so they were offering some half priced bottles. Win! We chose a nice red Zinfandel to share. Because we already had mussels on the mind, we got two orders of their red curry mussels with a side of fries. We each got a nice sized bowl with mussels, some angel hair pasta, and a thick, chunky curry sauce. After making the poor decision to wear white, we were a bit splattered with curry between the shellfish and the pasta, but it was totally worth it. The sauce was flavorful but not hot and went well with the seafood. I had thought the pasta in curry sauce was an odd selection, but really enjoyed it! The fries are awesome, like fair fries with the skin on and little crunchy bits. Finally, we shared their chocolate pot de creme for dessert. It was served in a cute little mug with whipped cream and I thought chocolate shavings on top, but as we ate it, I'm pretty sure it had some espresso beans in the chocolate. The perfect end to a nice meal and a fun night with a good friend!

    Have been back to Gallos a few times, always pretty good. Brought my boyfriend late one evening for the first time, he got the Chicken Parmesan sandwich which he really liked, though he didn't like the Mayo on it, he said he'd get it without next time (it's saucy enough). I got the scallops risotto and it was great. However, the star of the show were the French fries. He said they were the best fries he's had. And it's a cute place inside, outside patio, great service, good deals and specials. Definitely will be back again.

    BPT Pizza
    Keith K.

    The wife and I stopped in for dinner on our way to the Crew match based on some internet snooping. Ordered the fish n chips and a BPT pizza. The fish was tender and moist with a crisp but not excessive beer batter crust. Fries were were skin on potatoes; hot, crispy and nicely salted. Pizza listed under "Small Pies" on the menu but actually about 12". No red sauce, and I am a red sauce fan, but didn't miss it! Savoy pesto and fresh cherry/grape tomatoes on a thin, crispy crust...very tasty! We had plenty to eat...took half the pizza home based only on the fact the pizza would reheat better than the fish. Jason did a great job attending to our table. Fish listed only tarter sauce...not a fan. Asked about cocktail sauce and a quick checkin with the kitchen affirmed that would not be a problem. Also inquired about other desserts and were pleasantly notified that a batch of crème brûlée was also available. And desserts...had two (first menu decision and reason we took some pizza home). Crème brûlée creamy and smooth with flavorful crispy top. Our other selection was Pot of Chocolate (or something similar) which was rich and creamy...both excellent in their own ways! Great food and great service...the best we've had in a while...and priced reasonably. We will be back and have already told others of our experience!

    Caesar salad with scallops
    Pat E.

    This is the newest restaurant in the Gallo group. Small, modern and Italian focused tight menu. Covid guidelines implemented. Be sure to make reservations, otherwise you'll likely will be out of luck. As for the food.... does not disappoint. The BPT Flatbread & crabcakes were delicious. We were unable to try the calamari app & salmon entree as they ran out. We enjoyed our entrees of blacken scallops & chicken Piccata. Chicken better than scallops. But, sweet potato risotto deserves special mention. As for service...... the place was full, we had to wait to order & wait longer than expected for the order. This is a great addition to Cville. Want to try other dishes. However, the original Gallo's in Upper Arlington, with its focus on new Orleans dishes, is hard to best.

    Jerk Scallops
    Keenan T.

    Wow. A special dinner out with Gallo's on High. We started with the Jerk Scallops special. A smooth creamy combination of perfectly cooked scallops and a chilled tropical rice pilaf. This was on top of the bread and vinegar oil. For my main course we got the special drunken flatbread. We also sampled the angus burger. Clearly they are used to people not being able to finish the flatbreads as I was able to get half the pizza boxed to save room for dessert. We split the key lime pie and chocolate desserts happily. The chocolate pot was more to my taste, coffee flavors throughout and espresso beans complemented it well. The key lime was a classic pie. The sliver of lime garnish ever so fine and the crust crumbled in the mouth. I definitely recommend reservations as the dining room likely has fewer tables due to social distancing.

    Bread with olive oil and balsamic vinegar
    Theresa H.

    Nicer sit down version of Gallos. It has Tvs with the game on over the bar but it is less sports bar, more place to meet for drinks and nice dinner. Thankfully this location still have a good pizza and wings.Our server was helpful attentive and friendly. We'll be back.

    Half off wine list. Prices are the half off current price.

The food is consistently amazing, with a menu that offers something for everyone. But what truly keeps us coming back is the incredible staff! Everyone is so friendly, welcoming, and always wears a smile. A special shout-out to Nisa, who is absolutely wonderful! Her service and the team's genuine hospitality make every visit feel special. If you are looking for top-tier food and even better service in the NW Columbus area, this is the place to be! We cannot recommend them enough.

There is literally no where to stand while you wait for your table...and wait we did. We were shown to our table at 6:10. The hostess told us they had a party of 30 and party of 40, so we tried to be understanding but also-they accepted the reservations-so kind of on them. Our server had an attitude from the moment she approached our table. She was waiting on one of the parties, but still... We were sitting in the back room and it was LOUD. Like couldn't hear other people at our own table loud. We had an older person in our party and when we asked our server to come to the other side of the table so he could hear her, she didn't-so she ended up misunderstanding and bringing him the wrong drink. There was a guy who we *think* may have been a manager hanging around, but he never did a table touch, so hard to tell. We had questions because gluten free food is offered but not marked on the menu or online, it said ask your server. She was annoyed but we have allergies so...I will say they have really good gluten free options; however when we reconfirmed that she had gotten the gluten free bun she was annoyed again. The only reason I gave 2 stars (the one redeeming quality) was the food. It was all excellent and cooked perfectly. The server didn't come back to check how things tasted-but someone in our party flagged her down to get lemon wedges for her seafood pasta. The waitress literally rolled her eyes, grabbed lemons wedges from the bar and brought them in a cup that she slammed down and walked away without a word. We ordered dessert because we were there to celebrate a birthday. Before dessert came, our server cashed us all out. This is what put me over the edge: WHILE WE WERE STILL EATING she slammed down a reserved sign. When we started standing up, she picked it up. Most restaurants allow for 90 minutes for reservations to turn a table. We were only at the table for 70, so we totally weren't lingering. I might give this place another try because the food was so good, but because of this experience, I'd definitely think twice.

So it only seemed natural that I'd fall in love with Food Street, but I was worried that my expectations would exceed the reality. So instead of going in... I decided to order delivery through good ole Door Dash - expecting a sad, slightly cold, non crispy shadow what you'd get in person but let me tell yas.... this was not the case at all! Spicy Crispy Chicken Sandwich was phenomenal! It was wicked crispy, the size of my head (quick makes this a HUGE value... not that my head is that big, but order it to get an idea), bun was not soggy at all, and it did not disappoint. Chicken was perfectly cooked, juicy, not chewy at all, and seasoned well. Coleslaw added a nice vinegar contrast (I wish there was much more coleslaw but it didn't stop me!), sauce was smokey and slightly spicy, and the bun was soft. Chicken Tikka Paratha Roll was also a hit! Great seasoning, chicken was incredibly well cooked - melt in your mouth style - with small bits of char - vegetables were fresh, and the roll itself had great chew and flavor w/out being greasy (at all) or saturated. Fries were bangers too. Ready to eat my way through the menu. If it's this good when ordered, can't image what'd it be in house.

We went to the counter to place or order, we ordered, faluda, garlic chicken wrap, Malia boti wrap gappa chaat and mango lassi. Everything except for the faluda tasted just ok. Nothing for me to go back and try it again. Now let's go back to the faluda. They forgot to give us the faluda. We had to ask 3 times and almost 2 hours later, they finally brought it out. And it tasted nothing like any form of faluda. It was vanilla ice cream with crushed pistachio. No apologies or explanation for the wait. With so many great places to have Indian/desi street food, this is not one of them.
