Best in Modesto – We have dinner at this fine restaurant before attending the Modesto Symphony (we are season ticket holders). Reservations are easy to get, always timely, service is outstanding, wine steward, Nick is knowledgable and friendly, JB and Hershel are our favorite servers. Food is always fresh, very well presented and hot. Considering this restaurant is owned by the Gallo family, the wines are very diverse and moderately priced. The Bocci Ball court in the back is a great place to smoke a cigar, drink fine spirit... read more

What a Jewlel of a Find ! ! ! – Bloody Fantastic !!! Dined there last night for the first time. Myself, the wife and another couple. Butternut squash soup was excellent (and vegan). I had the Carbonara Pasta. Instead of scrambled egg mixed in as it is traditionally, it had a poached egg on top. The yolk, when mixed in with the cream sauce was over the top. My wife, a vegetarian had the soup as well and a Margherita Pizza. They make it in the very traditional style....no tomato sauce. Just dough, mozzarella, tomato, basil and... read more

Bad Service, Cold undercooked food – I was not impressed with the food, or the service here. The servers forget who they are serving, and they spend more time flirting with co-workers than they do with your meal. If you like salmon...dont come here, they ruin it.

Does not quite fill it's reputation – The restaurant is gorgeous but does not live up to all that you hear about it. The food was average, you can find a version of it elsewhere. My order came drenched in red wine. The taste was quite overpowering. Aside from all of that, the food is not as overpriced as some say. It honestly depends on what you order. I went with someone and our tab came up to $70. We ordered an appetizer, each had an entre, and two desserts, not to mention drinks. So, yeah. Don't be afraid to dine here. It... read more

Always very professional!!! Like a five star restaurant. – This place can be EXPENSIVE! Twice that I can recall with large groups we spent over $500 on dinner and drinks! But, the atmosphere, food, service and entertainment is some of the highest quality you will find in Modesto. Owned by the famed Gallo family of Modesto, you can always be sure the wine is top quality and the chef, who is also renowned, will ensure the best dinner for the price. Although dinner is pricey, lunch at Galletto offers a much cheaper version of t... read more

No Return – Hmmmmmmmm where do I begin??? The inside is nice but no privacy at tables. I made reservations SEVERAL days in advance for my husbands birthday, arrived and STILL had to wait OVER 30mins to be seated on a Thursday night. "Fritto" Appetizer was not ALL that. Had to ask for bread twice, the waitress was S-L-O-W and non existent! A long wait for the dinner and salad. Not to mention we were seated near the door, each time someone entered or exited we froze! During dinner the lights (which are dimmed) got dimmer and f... read more

Worst service – It's a 'grandiose' restaurant and the outside patio is actually very nice but the biggest problem here is the service! I have tried it 4 times in three years and have been disappointed every time. Everything from 'lost reservation' to rude and/or confused hostess to waiters who don't know their food. I had to send soup back that was not hot... Once you get your food it's very good but minuscule portions definitely are not worth the hefty prices. The word 'pretentious' comes to mind every time I'm there... It ... read more

Never return – Two hours to complete sunday brunch. Lost order. Served same course twice. Soup warm, fruit warm, omlet greasy, sausage sandwich tastless and greasy. Manager tried to make amends even though we did not complain. Obviously knew there was a problem. No way to correct the problems after the fact. Free drink offer does not help after a bad meal. reservation was at 12:30 0n 10/13/02
