In 1974, George and his wife Joan ventured out to what was then considered the country. They found the perfect location on the shores of Diamond Lake. A great deal has changed since then, but our commitment to service and great food hasn’t. We welcome you to visit and see what’s new. It’s the Gale Street you love and remember with a more comfortable and updated atmosphere. Come for your favorite dishes prepared by our award-winning chef and stay for the sunset, a good cocktail, and many more memories to be made.

Great experience. Great food. The service was on point. It's why my wife and I come to (any) Maggiano's (including this one), whenever we are close to one and can get out for a date night.

We came after my daughter’s band concert, around 8ish. I made a reservation just in case and to get my points on OpenTable. We got seated right away at a high top table. Ambiance is nice. There’s a good selection of alcohol from beer, seltzers, wine and other spirits. We all enjoyed our food choices of rigatoni, salmon, spicy shrimp, bbq smoke chicken and impossible burger. I do recommend for family, friends, and work outing.

Wonderful food! Waitress was also wonderful and very accommodating. My only complaint would be to offer a side salad with the entree. Even at an extra charge would be fine. The Cesear salad was wonderful but way too big for 2 people to share as a side salad.
