Review Visit: March 11th, 2014…read more The place where I learned that I don't like Hellman's Mayonnaise. Mayonnaise seems to be such a controversial condiment. It has its fair share of lovers and it has its fair share of haters. There seems to be no middle ground. Personally, I like it when it can compliment a meal but too little and it does nothing and too much floods out the other flavors. Head West was suggested to me when I was first putting together my travel list in 2011 by my friend Annalyn. She said it was the best place to get subs in Springfield. I took her word on that and decided to check it out on one of my first trips to the city of Abraham Lincoln. I wasn't sure what to expect from Head West. The name and logo gave me a few different expectations but I don't think what it is and what I expected aligned very well. The restaurant was heavy on the greens and purples from what I remember. Like something you would see in New Orleans. Seeing as this was forever ago, I don't really remember what I got but I do remember the fatal mistake I made. When I unrolled my sub sandwich and I was presented with some mayo packets, I added them to my sub to the level I thought was appropriate. I was naive. I was young. I didn't know better. It took a few bites for me to realize that I don't like Hellman's Mayo. Not one bit. Sadly, I did too good of a job when I added it as it was evenly spread across the whole sandwich. Bite after bite, I tried to tell my brain that it was good. It was delicious. It was not the worst thing I had. But in the end, I had to admit it was nasty. The sub itself was really good and the Jones Soda washed everything down rather well. This was my first time having a Jones Soda and that was far from disappointing. After choking down the sub, we made our exit. I have forever cursed that mayonnaise for ruining my sub on that day. On the bright side, I would be willing to go back and try a sub again. As I said prior, the sub itself was great. It was just marred by that awful goop called a condiment.

He was inefficient, i waited at least 10 minutes and got half my order BEFORE the folks who order in front of me. Then waited another 10 minutes for our second sandwich... my wife was done eating before I got my sandwich and my fries were cold. This guy was outwardly rude to everyone that I witnessed. I guess why I pay over $30 for fast food sandwich's, I expect at least fresh food and a pleasant experience. I got neither here today. That being said the sandwich was excellent!

The moment I walked in the door I was hit with an overwhelming scent of deliciousousness! I had the anti pasta salad, which was off the charts.

There was so much I ended up bringing at least a third of it all with me. I look forward to returning and trying more dishes on the menu.

If ever you are in the region of Riverton Illinois, Gallina's is a MUST stop. It is an easy jump off of Interstate 72 that will repay your time with a delicious family meal from the Old Country.

The assembly of the sandwiches was a little off (e.g heating cucumbers/veggies intended to be added after toasting (like lettuce), light on the mustard) and while friendly the staff was not super knowledgeable on pricing.

I felt bad for the staff who was sweaty, but that is also a little off-putting to see as they prep your food.
