    Fantastic, everything was just fabulous. Only thing missing was cranberry sauce, and possibly a small salad. Food was great, plenty of it.

    We were expecting top choice with Gallagher’s supposed upgrade and the higher price for the meal. We were put at a table in the corner near a doorway. When we inquired about moving they said it was not possible. The food was cold when delivered. We were not satisfied at all.

    First, my wife and I thank the entire Gallagher staff for taking YOUR Thanksgiving to ensure that we had an enjoyable time with ours. The service is next to none. The food was absolutely delicious. The ambiance is pleasant. We highly recommend this restaurant.

    This was my third visit. Unfortunately my experience this time did not measure up to my other two visits (both of which were outstanding). Dinner salads were served simultaneously with the appetizer making the dinner feel rushed. The ribeye was visibly smaller than previously and a bit gristly. Maybe just an off night but certainly didn’t meet our expectations

    Chicken spedini was excellent. Salmon was very good. White pasta side dish was excellent, sauce was not the thick and it also wasn’t too buttery, best ever.
