SO disappointed. Upon entering this establishment which was formerly TNT Burger, we had high hopes. The greeter at the front was so friendly with the couple she seated before us. When she seated us, the greeting wasn't quite the same. No biggie. Then our waitress arrived. And with that the chill blew in and stayed. You know that "vibe" you get when a person's demeanor tells you they would rather NOT be doing what they are doing? Yeah that. Orders taken, deadpan - without the least bit of friendliness ... but it's was ok... since we are New Yorkers and can handle it. The contrast became all too apparent once we observed the same waitress GUSHING over the other patrons . Our meals arrived. They tasted good enough. Maybe this place was a good choice after all... Except my son then found a hair in his sandwich. Not a hair from the top of someone's head- not an eyebrow hair or a lash etc... a hair of a different type. Of course we were all disgusted. I turned to face our waitress who was again gushing enthusiastically with the patrons at the table behind us. I turned to face her and waited. And waited. Finally she looks up. Smile gone. Deadpan. My son tells her there is a hair in his sandwich ... no emotion, no apology, not one word is uttered as she picks up his plate, turns and walks off. When the new sandwich arrives, her apology was half hearted and too late.
Upon paying, the cashier did remove the price of his sandwich. But that was only half of the problem.
The waitress made certain that we did not feel welcome in this restaurant filled with homogenous patrons. Perhaps she felt discomfort by my husband's presence. American. Male. Neatly dressed. Black? Gosh darn it. Maybe that was it! Perhaps she felt we were not local. We are. Perhaps she didn't agree with our family type? The law enforcement type. Perhaps she felt we didn't belong and wanted to make sure we didn't come back? We won't. We had a great experience when this was still TNT Burger. We have had good experiences at other Warwick establishments throughout our almost 15 years living... LOCAL. To the owner/ manager- take care to train your lower level workers. We know its hard trying make ends meet on tips. Make certain that they do not allow their prejudices to color their demeanor...not while they...
Read moreIn these times of economic vigilance, a visit to Galloway Grill in Warwick, NY, is akin to a well-considered market strategy. As a Wall Street banker, keenly aware of the volatile economic landscape, every dining choice is a reflection of careful fiscal planning.
Galloway Grill is conveniently located and offers a bustling yet welcoming environment. The crowd is a mix of older patrons and families, reflecting a diverse demographic. However, a word of caution for fellow diners: be mindful of the speed traps in the village. The local law enforcement is vigilant, and going over 30 mph could lead to an unwanted financial setback – a scenario all too familiar in my line of work.
Service at Galloway Grill is efficient and no-nonsense, much like a well-oiled financial machine. However, there's a slight hiccup when it comes to the children's harmless fascination with jelly packets. In an era where every small expense is scrutinized, this seems a trifle, yet it's emblematic of the broader economic prudence we must all exercise.
The menu offerings, like stable financial instruments, are reliable and satisfying. The pancakes, French toast, and particularly the omelets, provide a comforting return on investment, both in terms of taste and fulfillment.
The price point, around $70-80 for a family of four, is a significant consideration in these times of economic uncertainty. While the quality is undeniable, the cost is a reminder of the current need for careful budgeting and financial foresight.
Galloway Grill occupies a unique position, slightly more upscale than a diner but not quite a high-end restaurant. Its place in the culinary market is somewhat analogous to a mid-cap stock – not without its risks, but offering a potentially rewarding experience.
In conclusion, while I recommend Galloway Grill for its quality, do so with an eye on both your wallet and the speedometer. The current economic climate, much like the vigilant speed enforcement in the area, requires constant awareness and prudent decision-making. It's a solid 4-star experience, with the potential for 5, should the economic and local traffic conditions become...
Read moreUpdated March 2, 2019: The ambiance has improved, slightly, as noise-dampening panels have been installed on the walls, eliminating some of the echo. Burgers are cooked to your liking, with kid's options available for a variety of dishes. Seems to keep doing good business...
New restaurant in the former TNT Burger location. Place has been busy since it opened just Friday, April 13, 2018. Staff is friendly but still feeling things out. The room is quite loud as sounds reverberates so you hear EVERYTHING. Owners already were talking about installing noise-dampening panels so that customers can hear each other at the same table. Ambiance is comfortable and open.
Food is good and comes quickly when they are fully staffed, even when the place is packed - and it has been - so you can eat a hot meal. Breakfast is available ALL DAY, which is a win for everyone! Bacon is crisp, but French toast was...
