Reviews for Galit in Chicago, IL
Genuinely one of my favorite restaurant experiences of all time. I have eaten at Galit or carried out at least 10x and I have... never had a bad meal. A well deserved Michelin ??, and one of the nicest teams of hospitality professionals around! Read more
This restaurant recently earned their first Michelin star and it's no wonder why! This is my new favorite Mediterranean place in... the city. The food was spectacular, the staff lovely, and the location was great. It's nice to see good restaurants in LincolnPark (and not in West Loop). I adored the hummus and the homemade cheese from the appetizer course, the cabbage and rice dish,and the rice pudding dessert (these were from their Restaurant Week menus). Everything we ate was amazing though! They have aregular fixed price menu for dinner that looked amazing, so you should definitely check it out! Read more
Galit was amazing. Went here with the girlfriend for her birthday. It was our first Michelin star restaurant we've ever tried.... Great atmosphere. We sat at the kitchen bar. The fixed menu is easy. Server was really knowledgeable. Wine menu was very uniquewith a lot of middle eastern wines you don't see many places. Read more
I've been to other Michelin star restaurants. Some of the best Middle Eastern and Israeli food I have had! Lots of options and... very affordable compared to other Michelin star restaurants. Nothing out of the ordinary, so a very comfortable diningexperience all around. I left very full from their $69 full course and I am a 205lb+ man. Simple Middle Eastern staples acrossthe menu. Pita is made to order in a hearth oven. Very affordable. Hip place that's great for sharing food in a group or on adate. You will leave full. Impressive wine selections, especially from the Middle East. Not super creative, but nothing wrongwith simple done well. The Pastrami and the Carrot Cake is to die for! Read more
????????????One of the rare upscale Mediterranean spots that shines bright because of its service and exotic food. They have a 4... course with a choice for 3/3 courses. Drinks are extra and they add a employee insurance charge to your check. We spent around$190 for 2 with taxes for dinner + 2 cocktails. Appetizers are delicious and the shawarma for entree is perhaps the best dish.We were a little disappointed with their recommended falafel. A little too hard to chew. Everything else was amazing. Mygirlfriend and I were celebrating our 2 yr anniversary and the service made the dinner extra special for us with personaltouches like a staff-signed card, cookies to-go and free champagne.

BEST falafel of my life, sticky sweet carrots we loved, and the service was amazing,we felt so special! I could eat here every day. Read more
Hands down one of the best restaurants I’ve ever been to. The food was exquisite - every dish we had was perfection. The... service was extraordinary- they made our anniversary so special. The atmosphere was enthralling - I highly recommend sitting atthe kitchen counter. All around a wonderful restaurant. I highly recommend. I cannot wait to come back. My only issue will bedeciding whether I want to get the dishes I loved again or try new ones. Read more
