We really enjoyed our lunch today. We felt welcome as soon as we entered the restaurant, service was brilliant. And the food was sublime, thank you very much for an enjoyable birthday treat.

Went for an anniversary dinner, from we were shown to our table to leaving the service was impeccable and friendly. I wanted a few things on the bar menu that weren’t served in the main menu and our host moved us to an equally comfortable table by the bar where the food was served piping hot, fresh and perhaps the best steak I’ve had in a long time. The salad was crisp and refreshing, the black cod melted in my mouth, simple a 10/10 experience I can’t rate it high enough.

Another wonderful experience at this restaurant. From start to finish, it was all positive - both the food and service. Very accommodating and nothing was too much trouble.

Galvin offers everything we want from a fine dining experience! We first dined at Galvin in 2017 and are there at least twice a year, I can honestly say the food gets better every visit! The staff are polite and attentive, and the Head Sommelier Rudina is just amazing. She makes beautiful recommendations based on your budget. She is super friendly too, a wonderful person.

Great tasting food, restaurant room a bit hot and stuffy but was in the middle of summer! Service a tad slow. Portions on the smaller size.
