Durty Gurt's comes highly recommended and I will be the first to say it, they definitely did not disappoint! The service was top-notch, as I chopped it up with the daughter of the founders. Hearing how it all started and seeing what it has become, adds to the experience of eating at Durty Gurt's. The daughter-in-law was a great hostess, the son was great working the bar, the adopted daughter 😉 was a great waitress and the waitress that I was assigned killed it! This place was an absolute gem! I tried other places that were suppose to be more popular here in town and they didn't come close to the Gurt. The atmosphere was wonderful and the food was absolutely amazing! If you're in Galena, do your self a favor and try Durty Gurt's... I was so dang impressed, I became a walking billboard for the restaurant, as I grab two shirts on my out!

This is a good place to visit if it’s your first time in Galena. You’ll find the humor in the many signs that surround almost every inch of the interior. It’s definitely a unique touch to the many interesting places in the downtown area. As for the food, the burgers were physically appealing. However, they were practically tasteless. No flavor or mouth-watering events occurred during the highly anticipated event ( I say highly anticipated because I’m an avid burger lover who tends to enjoy them more than I should) We also had Bloody Mary’s. Let’s just say the pickle was the highlight of that chapter. Overall, if you want pretty good seasoned fries, this is your place, but I wouldn’t recommend the extremely bland meat used in the burger or the microwave gyro “meat” that covered the Greek burger.

The wife and I just finished eating here. We split a Hawaii-5-O burger. So glad we did. All of their burgers are 1/2 pound burgers. Just too much for us to eat by ourselves. The waitress was very attentive and pleasant. The sodas are expensive at $3.00 with free refills. But we were both too full to need a refill. I asked for a cup of mayo because I like mayo on my fries instead of ketchup. They don't just give you a small cup. You get 3 packets of mayo for an extra $0.75 that were so hard to open I had to use my teeth. I'm sure they could have just put the mayo they buy in bulk in to a small cup instead. Other than that the food was really good and I would recommend this place to others.

Ok, this 5 star review is really for atmosphere and service. The food was pretty good, but our server was probably one of the best servers we have had in years. Absolutely perfect service. I wish i could remember her name. Anyway, the boozy shakes were delicious. The Long Island iced tea was pretty good, too. I had the Chicago Cheesy Beef. It was good, but not quite Chicago enough for my taste. We also had the cheeseburger, and it was good. This review was again more prompted by the outstanding service. She was attentive and friendly without being too much! Seriously, she's one of the best servers ever. The atmosphere is fun with some great signs around and it was clean and comfortable.
