    The food was amazing, as usual. We were seated in the back room and it was really cold and drafty. This made the experience, less enjoyable.

    That was a belated Valentine’s meal, but gallows is one of our favorite places in the area that we frequent often.  Tommy will still love your place.

    We loved the appetizers: chicken wing brined dry rubbed (GF) and walleye nuggets! The risotto balls tasted a little bit too much like raw garlic The cavatelli with Alfredo was great - someone got a meatball and someone got shrimp. Gumbo was excellent. The chicken etouffe also had a raw garlic taste, and the breaded chicken became a little soggy. Great atmosphere and service!

    First time there for Valentine’s Day. Really enjoyed our meal. Excellent food and service despite the fact that it was very busy because it was Valentine’s Day. Gallo‘s kitchen and bar serves high-quality food in a casual atmosphere. Staff is extremely friendly. It has an unusual mixture of continental Italian and New Orleans food. We had the gumbo for a starter, which was excellent as was the rest of the meal, steak for myself and lamb chops for my wife. Excellent experience. Highly recommended we intend to go back.
