I had a brilliant evening at La Galleria. The service was warm and friendly from the moment I walked in, and the whole place had a really cosy, authentic Italian feel. I started with the meatballs, and they were absolutely delicious – tender, full of flavour, and served in a rich, tasty sauce. For my main, I had a pizza, and it was spot on. Perfectly thin and crispy base, generous toppings, and that proper wood-fired taste you only get at a good Italian place. The atmosphere was relaxed but lively, and I could tell a lot of people there were regulars – always a good sign. I left feeling full, happy, and already planning my next visit. Highly recommend if you’re in Birmingham and fancy proper Italian food done right.

We enjoyed an evening meal in the week, after work. The food was lovely (we had Aaribatia and garlic bread), service was good and food arrived promptly. Overall it was a good atmosphere and a nice place for a relaxed meal.

The taste and presentation of La Galleria’s pasta dishes is among the best I’ve ever tried. Compared to other restaurants they provide good value, balancing delicious food and generous portions with reasonable prices. The service was generally attentive and friendly.

Great little find in the heart go Birmingham. I had seen this place online and wanted to try it. We were a family table of 3. The service was excellent. Food very good. Although the focaccia appeared to be more like a garlic pizza bread - still tasty. Great evening. We will return when we visit the city again.

Probably the best meal I have ever had. This was better than any food I have eaten In Italy. I had scallops from heaven as a starter followed by an absolutely PERFECT steak and chips, Italian style. By the end of these two courses I was full. Erika took excellent care of us and served a few beautiful digestives after the meal. I will visit Birmingham just to take my family here. A massive thank you to all the staff. Italian wine, particularly the Chardonnay is the best in the world.

I went here for my girlfriend’s 21st birthday and it was 100% the best choice I could have made. The service from the start was perfect. We were seated in a matter of seconds and all of the staff were interactive and so kind. The food was flawless and was some of the best Italian food we have ever had. For mains, we went for the creamy chicken mushroom pasta and the carbonara. They were both so good!! We were also recommended a wine (Vermentino Di Sardegna) which was some of the best wine we have ever had. The restaurant setting is cozy and romantic with a relaxed atmosphere which marries the food perfectly. Definitely recommend :)!
