I literally just left Galo tavern 18 from having my daughter’s wedding shower there. I cannot express my gratitude for the staff who did an amazing job with service. everyone was absolutely polite.,professional did their work without being seen or known and everything was absolutely delicious. Special shout out to Nicole one of the managers who is an amazing human being and will do anything possible to make a day very special. Also big shout out to Bruno who is also a wonderful person and very accomodating. The reason I chose this place is because one of my friends had her shower there and it was absolutely fantastic and today was no exception. I expected nothing less and that’s exactly what I got. I would never hesitate to throw a beautiful party here again. And everyone that was at my party was raving about the food. And everything else, thank you so much to the staff. The managers the owner everything was impeccable for my daughter’s shower .Thanks again .

Rachel our waitress is very knowledgeable of the food being served. I had a satisfying and thirst quenching drink of a strawberry mojito. Oh boy! Followed by a delicious skirt steak with included a baked potato, broccoli. I had an extra side of mushrooms. The ambience is relaxed and looks old world. I look forward to going again.

We made reservations and were seated right away. Good low-light atmosphere for the dinner space separated from the noisier bar area. Everything was delicious with good portion sizes, drinks were made just right. Overall great experience.

Food prices to high. I had the fish and chips. The fish was Cod. It was 27 dollars, but I don’t think it was worth it. The fish was bland and the beer batter was too much. It made the fish look bigger than it was. The rest of my family got sandwiches. They looked good, but the meat portions in the sandwiches were small for the price. The fries were very good although they were standard plain fries. The bread given in the beginning fooled me into thinking the food was going to be out of this world. The staff was great though.

We used here for a birthday lunch and everything was amazing. Nicole and Bruno were accommodating, helpful, communicated with us everything clearly and the most friendly set of people in the customer service industry. They upgraded us to the bigger room and worked with us throughout the event. Nicole and her staff that day was super attentive. The food was great and everything was amazing. Would recommend and go again for dinner and host events as well.

I have ordered here many times with Ubereats and usually it is very good but last night it wasn’t. This was my fish dinner last night. Cooked on outside and raw inside. I will still give them another chance as the rest of the times it is very good. I believe the next time I order, it will be midday, not at night when super busy.

AMAZING FOOD. Yes that is exactly how I want to start this review. I have never personally been to the restaurant so I can’t comment on the decor or staff but I have ordered a large amount of servings on Uber eats and for it being my first time I will say honestly everything was great. The steaks were cooked exactly as I requested which is hard to get when not being in the establishment. The following items is what I ordered. Fried calamari, 18oz New York strip, grilled hanger steak which was juicy as ever with a chimmichuri sauce, chicken fingers for the kids, jumbo lump crab cakes, sautéed Manila clams, Kobe beef sliders, lamb chops.The Kobe beef sliders is real Kobe meat you can smell the freshness when eating them and I highly I mean highly recommended the lamb chops wow. Everything I listed above was five stars. The only reason I gave 4 stars was because I have never been to the establishment to rate on staff and decor as stated above once I have I will edit back my rating. View photos

I hosted my daughter’s bridal shower today at Galo Tavern 18 and it was just perfect. Everyone had such a nice time, the brunch was delicious. It’s also such an enjoyable selection, brunch items family style followed by an entree choice. Unlimited brunch cocktails served in mason jars, so you definitely get a great drink. The Napoleon cake is made in house and got rave reviews. Working with Bruno and Nicole was one of the best experiences planning a party. Warm, accommodating and professional. Could not have asked for a better day.
