The food is great. I just would rather choose what my side dishes will be rather than the restaurant deciding for me. It is very expensive if I pick and choose what I would rather have.
A friend told me of this place so we went for a weekday meal. The service was friendly and courteous if not spectacular and the décor was pleasant family restaurant, neat and clean. The food was unremarkable, bisque with excessive flour for thickening and bland boring crab cakes. Probably a good pla...
Convenient spot for a bite to eat if seafood is a must. Clean restaurant with good service. Food is uninspired with little flavor. Doughy flavor to the crab cakes and clams casino were greasy. The lemon wedges were fresh and tasty. Overpriced for what was served.
There was a little portion, on my plate, (like I was French), too many old people, and way overpriced for the amount of food. Sitting down was slow, line moves Slowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww.
We've been going to Gallo's for over thrirty years. Never been disappointed.
There is a fine selection of seafood. Specials are done with a lot of flair and portions are nice. The staff is courtious, helpfull, and attentive. Seafood is not cheap, but this restaurant gives you a good value for the money. I would highly recomend the talapia, shrimp three ways, and the wild...
All I care about is that the food is awesome here. It is as good or better as Italian restaurants in South Philly. They have the absolute best pan fried crab cakes, all jumbo lump crabmeat in them. And the Linguine and Crabmeat is to die for! Way, way too many old people! Its like dinner time at t...
My only negative comment is the fact that you do not take credit cards, as it is very difficult when you have a good of six or more and cannot determine before hand the cost that will be incurred.
yo this is the most bangin seafood around the cook PETE MAKES THE BEST GRILLED CHEESES I EVER HAD. you got to try the all new appatizer sampaler its the best
the food is great, but more importantly, it is exceptionally prepared. the honey glazed salmon melts in your mouth. the salads are always fresh. the steak is tender & juicy. never disappointed.
The best crabcakes outside of Maryland! Prices are good also; large portions, good service. It's been a few years since I last was there but it will be on my "go back" list.
Everything about Gallo's is great. The food is top of the line, the servers are always nice and do anything to make you feel welcome, and the restaurant is always kept clean. The platters always look like something out of a magazine.Everything i eat there is always thes best i ever had!
Great restaurant, best in northeast Phila. Have been going for years. Fish is always top notch, fresh and well prepared. All jumbo lump crab in their crabcakes, little filler if any. We enjoy the cedar roatsted salmon, baked stuffed flounder and their filet mignon is as good as the top steak hou...

the place was very small inside, i suggest they expand, cause the food was excellent, and they give you a lot for the price!

This place acts as if you are going to be a one time customer. Almost as if they think the majority of the people entering are tourists. The food was dry, bread was stale, etc. It is amazing this company continues to survive

I've wanted to try this restaurant for years. Finally did and found the food to be quite good, at about the price I would expect to pay for this quality (entrees about $20 each). I had a chicken/potatoe/leek soup (creamy and flavorful), Maryland crabcakes (light, not gooey), and coconut sorbet f...

We went here with a large business party. All food was served at the same time, all hot and everyone thought the seafood was amongst the best they have had. Generous portions. Nice presentation. Pleasant and somewhat stylized environment.

The GOOD: This restaurant looks great on the inside. The chairs hurt after sitting in them for a while. The background music was fantastic. The warm bread they bring out was great,too. The BAD: They put the same seasoning on everything and it was way too heavy. It was on my salmon, broccoli, roas...
