Galli LES - New York

First visit to Galli. Menu selection was good, service was as expected. However the noise level in the restaurant was one of the worst I have ever encountered. My ears were ringing by the time we left. They should do something about the acoustics in the restaurant , perhaps add some noise absorbing materials on the walls/ceiling. I won't go back or recommend it for this reason.

Went to Galli on a Friday night. It was raining so not very crowded. Shared the muscles and salad. Both tasted fresh and tasty. Got the Funghi Pasta because of the truffle. I also added salmon to it. The pasta was amazing. Easily my favorite dish in NYC

The music is a bit loud. But good food and great service.

Food was good, not great. Standard Italian comfort food. Host was anything but friendly (borderline too rude to stay) service was inattentive and dismissive. They had a reservation for our group that fit our time frame but sat us over a half hour late with zero apology. Go if you must, food is as good as can be expected, but just make sure your expectations of service are appropriately low.

I just had my worst experience ever in a restaurant! I arrived for my 7:00 PM reservation and was promptly seated with my wife and another couple. As usual, we ordered drinks and the waiter took our order for our meal. We had appetizers and salads and then our entrees were served. At 8:30 PM the waiter brought over the dessert menus and asked if we would like coffee. The ladies ordered coffee and we began to review the dessert choices. Within a few minutes the waiter returned without the coffee. He said that there were too many people waiting for our table and so we could not stay to have dessert and coffee and we needed to pay the bill and leave. While we did leave, on the way out, I complained to the manager and he was apologetic, but the damage was already done. He said he would make it up to us next time we visited the restaurant but there will not be a next time. I would not return to this place again! I can’t believe that we spent $200.00 for a meal so we could be treated so poorly.
