In a continuing effort to try some of the places on the way to or from my work, I decided to visit Gilanellas tonight. Pizza is pretty much my favorite food, and the pictures on Google looked really tasty. I was sure it would be great!This confidence was not misplaced in the least. The interior of Gilanellas is clean and modern looking. There's a modestly sized bar right at the interior running into the space and a dining area with ample seating, including booths, tables, and high top tables. The carpet along most of the dining area is a tan/brown color, with walls painted blue, white, or gray. The ceiling provides a mix of lighting via recessed fixtures and string lights. The whole of these features comes together to make an interior that appears clean, warm, and comfortable. I like it.I opted to eat alone at the bar, as no one else was in the restaurant in the mid-afternoon when I visited. I ended up getting an order of the garlic bread and a thin crust pizza for myself. The garlic bread was everything I wanted in garlic bread - a little crispy with some garlic flavor yet still plenty fluffy. The pizza was also pretty great. For thin crust it wasn't super crispy, but the foldability meant it was an enjoyable experience for me. I'd want to come back in the future with a group and get a larger pie, just to be able to have bigger slices to fold. The flavors and texture were otherwise on point too - correct amount of cheese, clean flavors. Solid pizza overall.For what I wanted out of my afternoon, Gilanellas was perfect. I got to kick back a little after work, watch Jeopardy! and the afternoon news on their one TV, and have a solid pizza meal. I could easily see stopping here after work in the future, as well. Thanks, Gilanellas!Vegetarian options: You could totally get a pizza without meat on it. That would make it vegetarian.Kid-friendliness: There weren't any kids in the restaurant while I was visiting. It looks like an okay place for children, though.Parking: There is ample free parking in the lot immediately next to the restaurant.Wheelchair accessibility: The main entrance is wheelchair accessible.Dietary restrictions: The main food served is pizza, calzones, and pasta. You're probably not going to have too many keto or paleo options here.

Does NOT serve QC-style pizza, and that is a GOOD THING!! I haven't had a bad pizza here, and I've been patronizing this establishment since they were take-out only. They have a well stocked bar, although the wine selection is quite limited. The pandemic has made life difficult, with sporadic hours, but they have survived, for which I am very grateful. Thanks, Jen, for being a bright spot in our neck of the woods!

The pizza is excellent! You can get personal sized pizzas and the ingredients taste very fresh. We will definitely be back.

This place is my favorite place. Of all restaurants I know I like it most. I never miss an opportunity to go to visit this restaurant. when I feel like having a superb lunch, this restaurant comes straight to my mind. good and all kinds of food and a rich menu.trained staff members, and good mood. In addition to that, the tariff is affordable. I suggest this restaurant with great pleasure.

Might be good but we didn't get to try it. They were turning neon window lights off when we got there at about 10. Looked like the gentlemen waved us in anyway but I guess we misunderstood because when we went in they told us they were closed. We asked if they had a to go menu so we could check them out but they just told us it was on Facebook. Their Facebook page did have a menu but also read that they were open till midnight but definitely were not that particular Saturday night.

If you're looking for this place, it's in Rapids City, not Port Byron. Our meat lover's pizza was pretty good and the sauce was very tasty.

We just ordered a 16 inch original hand tossed pizza tonight. The crust tasted liked it was deep fried. We ended up putting all of down the disposable.
