Restaurants in Galena

“The best Irish Benedict l have ever had. Fresh homemade corned beef. My wife had French Toast. Her first comment after the first bite. OMG is this good. If you are in Galena Charlie's Place is a MUST stop.”

“Amazing stop to finish our day shopping downtown. Food was excellent and the service was amazing! Stop in- you won’t be disappointed”

“We loved it! We will be back!”

“Stopped in for Breakfast, were seated quickly even without a reservation, server took our drink orders right away, asked about food allergies offered us their daily special and helpful suggestions to help decide. Food arrived right away, looked and tasted fantastic.”

“Absolutely phenomenal. The best pace of serving the starters, salads & entrées. Our server Avery was so accommodating with all our questions and requests. Very impressed and satisfied with our first visit to celebrate our bride to be! 10/10 will come again”

“Chicken sandwich and also pork belly and shrimp were excellent. Way better food than a pub. Lots of beers on tape, great service, and cool vibe”

“Yes! Very intimate atmosphere and exquisite food. Very fresh food. Well worth going up the steps for! Loved it!”

“Authentic cuisine in a romantic bistro setting.”

“Had the Bills Benedict and husband had Ireland Hash. We finished both and it was sooooo yummy. Will definitely add this to our breakfast rotation. I really like the variety of teas.”

“Great atmosphere and the tour is very interesting. Would be nice if they had service to the tables instead of just at the bar.”

“Great service and friendly staff! Tacos were awesome. Will definitely be back soon.”

“I only had a few minutes to stop on our way home, we showed up on Saturday morning as they were opening. The girl who helped me was very nice and knowledgeable, I always wanted to stop here and was sad I didn’t have more time to try somethings but I knew I wanted to buy some rum and whiskey, they had very cool glassware as well so I bought a rocker glass, engraved wish I had bought 2, thanks again to the girl that helped me, can’t wait to come back and try some drinks, definitely going to get 3 more glasses.”

“Great food .Love the satay, ramen, hibachi . Friends enjoyed it to.”

“I highly recommend Cucina Bella. I felt that I was back in Italy, where I have traveled extensively. The fresh food, the atmosphere, the music, the friendly staff and definitely BRAVO to the chef! The food reminds me of the authentic fresh food I had when I traveled in Italy! Include Cucina Bella for excellent dining as well as a memorable experience ! Enjoy!”

“We were in Galena for the weekend and stopped in for Pizza and wings and both were awesome as well as the service! We stopped in another night and had the tenderloin and steak sandwiches and they were excellent and the service was amazing!”

“excellent mocha, treats, empanadas, service and environment! it's so uplifting stopping in there!”

“The first time my son and I went in about three weeks ago and very friendly lady waited on us. We had a great latte. I had the orange and white chocolate and I couldn’t wait to go back again. Then today we did and not only was the latte not as good. I couldn’t taste the orange at all. (The friendly lady was there but didn’t make our drinks) but the girls were complaining about someone being from Wisconsin while they were at the drink counter making our drinks and how they have people from Wisconsin. I’m not sure if they were talking about me and my family BUT we are from Wisconsin and were standing right there and could hear everything they were saying. My daughter heard them saying this also. I was not impressed at all today. Which is sad because I really talked very highly of the place to my husband when I got the first coffee. And so did my son. I made a special stop there today and was really let down. I guess I should have just stopped at Starbucks that was next door to us in Dubuque but I would rather support a small, local business. I hope next time is much better again or I probably won’t be back again.”

“Amazing staff, delicious vanilla chai, and amazing breakfast sandwich!! The Dbq Arb was so happy to have you at our event yesterday! Hope to see you soon! :)”

“We purchased, about 10 days ago, Pie-Pumpkin bread, sweet rolls among other breads and the were DELICIOUS. I would recommend Kleins Market Bakery to anyone. When we visit we will go back.”

“If I could give this place 10 stars, I would! We had the BEST time while in Galena at the Grape Escape! Our server, Maggie, was awesome! So friendly and helpful in picking out the perfect drinks for us! She went above and beyond! The martinis were seriously some of the best we've had! Prices are VERY reasonable as well! The music that night (wish I could remember his name) was very good and the whole vibe of the place was awesome. Service was VERY good! Never had to look for anyone, because they were always there checking on us! LOVED this place and will be back! To Maggie.... YOU ROCK!!! :)”

“I had a burrito bowl, and it was so good. my first time trying their food, did not disappoint. fast and friendly service.”

“What an experience! It felt like we were in Jamie's family room for an open house party - great cocktails, fun crowd full of quirky stories, cool staff, and Ted the dog. Little pricey, but good quality drinks. If you're open to an evening of frienldy, quirky converstaion, this place is a must. But if your looking for a quiet evening alone, this isn't the place for you.”

“the best wine!!! wide variety!!”

“Been to this Pub many,many times. We live close by. Always been a fan of the Shepherds Pie. Whenever we have visitors we come here because everyone wants Shepherds Pie! Went to dinner tonite 11/3/22. Original recipe Changed. Terrible mistake. It was horrible!! Someone made a big mistake in changing recipes. So disappointing.”

“This is the best place for dinner in Galena. Been to Galena multiple times. Log cabin is good, as well as Fried Green Tomatoes. This is my favorite for atmosphere, food, and service. Never had a bad meal here. Highly recommend this restaurant to anyone that visits Galena.”

“Food was very good, prices were good and the service was excellent. Sure wish we had tried this place sooner. Much better than other places we have tried in Galena.”

“We were just there on Jan 18th with 11 people. We did make reservations with Aaron & he was the one that informed me that they do now take reservations...very pleasant to talk to. We were upstairs, rather private ( just one other party up there but away from us). Our waitress, Bry, was great. We had one person running a little late, but Bry took our drink orders & my son ordered a wings appetizer which he said was really good.The beer bites & salad were a nice surprise & really good also. My son & daughter said their food was really good...mine was also great. Keep up the good work....we hope to make Gobbies a family tradition.”

“Love coming here. The pizza is fantastic. The crust is amazing. Very friendly. Great service.”

“Thank you for an amazing time and for safe ride home. You guys are the best!!!”

“Hands down the best Fish and Chips!”

“Had bfest and later in day stopped for ice cream. Quality & great prices, definitely take time to stop in!”

“We always love our visits to the General. Food is fantastic (bit pricey) but worth every bite and experience. Staff is welcoming and attentive! Restaurant has a very welcoming, warm, environment and you aren't rushed out when your meal is complete. Great trip as always!”

“Absolute best Restaurant in town!!! Hands done best steaks and seafood. Wait staff is the greatest. Very attentive to allergies etc.”

“Great outdoor and indoor dining. Fudge are so good. Very instagramable place”

“Just visiting Galena for the weekend, staff was awesome, food was off the charts good... down home breakfast and at a decent price.... definitely the place to go... and the chicken fried steak breakfast skillet is AMAZING!!!”

“This place is great. The food and drinks were awesome. Our server Aleska was super nice and very helpful.”

“This store is so cute and interesting! The woman behind the counter said she has worked for the owners for over 9 years and it showed! She was very kind and knowledgeable. I bought orzo and squid ink spaghetti! Thank you Pasta Perfetta for being you!”

“New owners and staff, Wonderful place with lots of different ice cream selection and home made waffle cones all the time, wonderful team that are always so nice and make you feel so welcoming, you should probably stop in every time you’re in galena ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🍦 shakes, malts, sundae”

“Today was our first day here and I have to say this place is excellent. Food was very good and my wife enjoyed her margarita. And for her to say that is rare because she’s a tough critic.”

“Kyle was immediately welcoming and made our lengthy order flow smoothly. He was quite positive, clear, and proper.

Maritza managed the floor well and was very positive with our needed iced tea request. She was serious and clear with her staff.

These two individuals embody the dining experience we expect when ordering out.

These two persons made tonight our best Culver's experience yet.”

“Great night listening to trivia and enjoying one of the best (I dare say the 2nd best) gluten-free pizzas I've ever had! Would have liked to see the golf simulator in action (next visit)!”

“Great steaks! Wonderful service and yummy french onion soup.”

“4.5 really, enjoyed a nice meal in the middle of the week. Nice selection of wine and several tasty appetizers to choose from. Brussels spouts were good enough to order 2 of. I got the lobster and scallops over ravioli and it was outstanding. Our server was very nice and told us all about the area and gave suggestions on other things to try while out this way. Dessert was perhaps the only thing I would say they missed on, it was premade, refrigerated chocolate cake. Good but not amazing. Price for 2 was $125 before tip. It was mid week and there was only one other table seated which made the place feel a little expansive and hollow.”

“We had my sons birthday party tonight and we reserved the party room. I just wanted to take the time to say how extremely happy we were at the food and service provided! The brunette with glasses (I am so sorry for not catching her name) made sure everything was great and was on top of our drinks, cleaning and service. We look forward to enjoying several more Happy Joe birthdays to come!”

“This was our first time at the Galena location.The atmosphere and food was wonderful. I would definitely recommend this to anyone wanting a great meal with a beautiful atmosphere.”

“Great local restaurant!! Wonderful staff. 😁”
