Took a good friend of mine here on 3/25/25 for her birthday. The food was very good, and portions were generous. They were entertaining a large party which made the small restaurant very noisy and hard to hear my friend when she spoke, but I guess that was to be expected. Would have given 5 stars if it had not been for the poor service from our waitress in which her tip reflected. I did make a point to tip two young gentleman working that were of more helping us than our actual waitress.

We had our Galantines dinner last night and everything was perfect from the time we walked in. Service was great, food was amazing and our waiter was beyond amazing. He was so kind and even took many group pics for us. We had an amazing time. This place is a hidden gem in SA and a must try!!! My 2nd time and all my friends it was first time and they all enjoyed their experience. Wish we would have taken more food pics...

We came here on a whim, the original place we picked out was closed. From the outside, this place isnt much to look at. Once we got inside, the place was packed on a Saturday night. We were promptly seated though and given a complimentary bruschetta. I ordered the steak special, which was a 10oz ribeye with a mushroom demi glace, some Umberto's jumbo shrimp, asparagus, and a side of pasta. The dinner also came with a salad, this wasn't Costco mixed greens either, it was a hand chopped house salad with Italian dressing. The food came out and it was great. Everything tasted really good, service was amazing, and the price was right.

This was my birthday dinner and it was just delicious. Our server was extraordinary. We got welcomed with some bruschetta and freshly baked dinner rolls. We ordered the Shrimp Umberto as appetizer and it was a delight. The shrimp was lightly breaded sitting atop this delicate lemon sauce. I ordered Chicken Francesca and the portion was so big that I had enough for leftovers that felt like a whole meal in itself. We also ordered shrimp scampi and it was so good that we all just want to come back and order that. Overall, it was an exquisite experience from this very original family owned business. I will definitely be back.

This place was delicious. Local spot with food that tastes just as freshly made as it looked. Went here for a birthday dinner as a first time patron and it did not disappoint. Server was excellent and personable. Glad I found this spot because I will be back. They start you off with a little bruschetta with a tomato and garlic medley on top. But there's also delicious rolls and butter. I asked for a side of marinara for the rolls and it was so good. I had the ribeye with rosemary potatoes. Birthday girl had the chicken Francesca, my oldest son had the shrimp scampi and my youngest a cheese pizza. All delicious. Also tried the umberto shrimp appetizer. So good. All large servings. All worth coming back for. Drinks stayed topped up. Just all around excellent. Made a point to each other we would be back. Such a delicious experience. At 5 on a Monday wasn't crowded at all and food came out timely. You definitely have a new customer.

Service was fabulous, Cab wine was a nice pour for the price and delicious! Chicken Gorgonzola was rich and delicious as was the Chicken Parm. We could have split an entree especially since we had the stuffed mushrooms first! The rolls were hot and crispy on top. Nice, cozy atmosphere. Just sad we're traveling and couldn't take the leftovers!
