I visited this Monday and ordered the chicken salad sandwich with potato salad. The chicken salad was so good! They have gluten-free bread. We got our food fairly quickly as we were the only group there. I highly recommend this restaurant for lunch for your trip to Galena.

Food was generally fine. The prices were surprisingly high and they add on a 3.5% service fee for using a credit card. Gluten free menu was a nice surprise.

My friend and I dined here the first night we arrived in Galena and had such a great experience that we decided to eat here the next two nights also. The place has quaint cozy bistro vibes. The food is delicious and flavorful, our favorite being the hangar steak. The kitchen easily accommodated my gluten free dietary needs. There is an extensive beer list and a good wine list. But the strength of the establishment is the very friendly attentive service of the wait staff and chef. I have never felt more welcomed at a restaurant or well attended to. A special nod to Lisa and Sarah for making our time spent here so memorable!

Apparently they don’t like seniors here. You have to ask for the discount if you don’t ask before they total your bill forget it. It’s too late They’re not suppose to assume you’re a Senior so you’re just out of luck. Oh and I paid $1.20 for a gluten free bun the fell apart on bite 3.

Always great food! They have gluten free buns which was great! But I'm pretty sure the fries aren't gluten free.

Prepare for swift service and delicious margaritas, but don't get your hopes up for horchata or gluten-free beer options here.

Waitress was like a ninja, silent but effective. Food was great, but could use a gluten-free beer option like Redbridge. If you came here expecting to find some tasty horchata, think again. No horchata at all. Bummer. Margaritas were delicious.

Delicious lunch at Big Bills. I’m dairy free and got a turkey sandwich with bacon, red pepper, mayo, and lettuce. Super soft yummy bread. Chips and pickle on the side. Chips are giant slices of potato with light seasoning. My GF husband got the same sandwich with a GF bun. My dairy free kid had huge chicken tenders. Probably one of the safer gluten-free dairy free options for us in downtown Galena.

Delicious food (i always get the nachos but everything else also looks amazing) and a great atmosphere! The service is quick and it’s a great place to grab lunch or dinner. Also, i am gluten free and it’s super easy to find things here that i can eat! I recommend the nachos or burritos bowls, and staff will change their gloves before making your order if you ask!
