The nicest people, outstanding food, and a positive vibe. Open early and late. I wish there was a place like it in NYC!

First time trying this restaurant out and it didn't disappoint, the torta asada was very delicious. Will definitely come back to try out the rest of the menu

The asada meet has no flavor but at least they put alot of meat in the taco. The horchata is too sweet. The rice was dry and the beans were mid. The chicken tamale was actually pretty good. The burrito has a lot of fat pieces in it. Honestly my local taco truck is way better than this spot. The food is not fresh. It has been sitting under the warmer. I would probably only go back for the tamales.

This place is great!!! You can taste the freshness of everything. We tried the chicken tamale, chicken burrito, flan and orachata. All were great! It was delicious and we left not feeling heavy or like we ate junk food. They also sell masa to take home for tortilla making or tamales.

The service was great but I will never buy from here ever again. The pozole didn't have any flavor and my tamal had a bug in the corn husk.

The most mediocre restaurant around. Gives Authentic Mexican food a bad wrap. This place is garbage. Greasy tortillas. ?

First time being here at this location and I was pretty impressed with the food. I ordered 3 tamales, 1 chicken (comes in chile verde), 1 red pork and 1 cheese with rajas (chile jalapeño or Serrano, unsure) but they were very good. I also ordered a champurrado and that was very delicious! My partner ordered a torta cubana, I didn't get to taste but he did say it was very good too. My 3 year old got 2 tacos of asada and he enjoyed them very much too. I'm giving 4 stars because their Mexican bread to us wasn't very tasty, but it's decent. The service was okay, could be better. The seating area is good, pretty spacey.

We got 2 asada burritos and requested no onions for one burrito only!! They didn't put onions or cilantro on the one we ordered with everything. The burrito barely had any meat, a bunch of rice but hardly any meat, on top of that flavorless. When we went to tell the server the burrito didn't have cilantro or onions, she said she couldn't change it. Honestly, this is the first time we go to this Gallo Giro and won't be going back there. The street burritos taste better than here. We spent $40 for 2 burritos and 2 drinks and bad service. Don't waste your time or money at this place. Do yourself a favor and safe yourself time and money. I highly recommend street vendors, you'll get a bunch of flavorful meat and good price.

The impeccable customer service, coupled with the satisfyingly filling torta, made for a delightful experience. The generosity of providing samples to entice customers with other delicious treats is a commendable touch. The manager (did not get his name unfortunately) demonstrates exceptional customer service by proactively greeting customers. The allure of the fresh conchas is undeniable, reaching their pinnacle of excellence when served straight out of the oven. The commitment to cleanliness at this location is noteworthy. Love this spot!

This place is a great place early in the morning they come out with fresh sweet bread. Coffee is the bomb people. There are friendly and helpful. It took over a great location.
