There is a very specific trend being cultivated in the new Athenian restaurants lately. Gallina is no exception and it is one of the most recent additions. This type of restaurants have many things in common: -aesthetically nice interiors that usually are not coherent with the cuisine they offer and do not always follow HORECA standards. -Quite pricy -the Service is not well trained -too much buzz with no substance

Gallina has a french based cuisine that if it didn’t have all these weird unnecessary twists, its plates could have been easily served in a nice Authentic Parisian Bistro. The result was pretentious.

Spending 70 € per person in Greece, I would have expected something way better.

Athens will soon be in need of restaurants with authenticity.

P.S. while in Dubai they serve coffee with golden leaves on top, Gallina serves roasted chicken (in essence Chicken Picnic) with truffle flakes and also a basque cheesecake with caviar - Pretentious Nouveau Riche approach that culinary wise is not value adding but in contrary creates confusion to my...

I am rather conflicted about this restaurant. We visited on August 3rd 2024, a party of two. We ordered:

1. Bread which came hot with salted buttef, cream cheese and a small salad
2. Raw shrimps: the marinade was not evenly spread and as a result half of the shrimps tasted bland
3. Blue crab: tasty but was served with some seaweed for which I did not understand the purpose. Additionally, it was served within the shell of the crab and we found some little parts of the shell in the food
4. Scallops: Very tasty dish
5. Sea bass and golden grouper: two dishes with delicious ingredients bur both with a major issue. In both dishes, the skin was practically inedible. It was too tough and chewy
6. Basque cheesecake with caviar: there is a reason this is the signature dish of the restaurant. Best of its kind I’ve ever had Staff was professional and attentive but not once were we asked if we liked the food. I would probably visit once again to try the meat dishes but I do not think I will come...
