A delicious and fun experience, albeit quite overpriced and a somewhat rushed. Superb and creative drinks with unique flavors and aromas. Especially impressed by arak menu, their specialty drinks, and wine list. Our server was engaging and knowledgeable. Ordering is easy and all the dishes are shared. Highlights of the food included the pits, hummus thin and and hummus masabacha, all the salatim but especially the ezme, also the carrots, heirloom tomatoes, and bass. The standout was the maqlubah. The desserts were good, but not great, which was fine since we were stuffed, though the mahleb cheesecake was excellent. The only downside was the servers who brought out several dishes at once and...

This place is very expensive, but it is VERY much worth it if you have a big enough group. Everything about this place just proves that it deserves the Michelin star it received.The service is great, our waitress was courteous but also personable. She did a great job explaining the menu items as well as how the service was going to work.The food is also incredible. Of course some items, in my opinion, were better than others but you could really appreciate the variety of the dishes and their flavor profiles as they came out. A huge stand out in my opinion was the lobster dish which was so good we got an extra serving of it afterwards.If you have the money, give this place a shot! It will be...
???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. My girlfriend and I were celebrating our 2 yr anniversary and the service made the dinner extra special for us with personal touches like a staff-signed card, cookies to-go and free champagne.
We decided to try out Galit for a casual Friday night dinner with a friend. We were seated right in front of the kitchen, which was entertaining to watch everyone working their magic. The service was great, the menu was diverse, and the atmosphere was fun. I recommend going hungry because you will leave full! I enjoyed the choose your own adventure dining experience, making it a great option for a date night. The combination of sharables is perfect for adventurous diners. I highly recommend this Michelin star restaurant if you're unsure of what you're in the mood for. You're sure to find items on the menu that will satisfy both your palate and your hunger.

DIVINE! Their tasting menu is very generous so go prepared to eat a lot. Portions are generous. Excellent cocktails. Place has great energy and vibes. I’d recommend going with a group so you can try more dishes. We thought all dishes were good. Our most favorite were the Turkey shawarma and the Pastrami. Least favorite was the fava beans appetizer, I’d recommend skipping. Next time I’m visiting chicago, I’ll definitely go again.
The food and service at this restaurant are amazing. The staff went above and beyond to make our celebratory dinner unforgettable. I would highly recommend this place to anyone celebrating a special occasion. We wish we could have tried more dishes, but that just gives us a reason to come back. The portions are generous, so make sure to come with a good appetite. Thank you for the fantastic evening, Galit!
Beautiful food. I loved the pickled items and the yogurt butter. The fish was so delicious. I would come here again. They also gave us cookies for the road on our way out. I think they over booked because they place was packed and they charged us for call , which is weird and I had never seen a that before.
I had such a wonderful experience at this restaurant! The aromas and flavors were absolutely amazing. The food was perfect and the cocktails were just as fantastic. I highly suggest sitting at the bar for a one-of-a-kind experience. Book a table now
Really one of my favorite restaurant experiences of all time. I've eaten at Galit or run at least 10x and I never had a bad meal. A deserved Michelin and one of the most beautiful teams of hospitality professionals around!
The tasting menu is amazing! Everything is super freshly tasteful. The turkey duck was my favorite. The To-go cookie in the end is a great note
