Food was great! Wait staff was friendly and accommodating. The owner of the restaurant was on scene. He stopped to talk to us and we discovered he lives close to myself and my family members. This is a nice small place with tasty drinks and food. My elderly father thought the music was too loud. The loud noises bothers his ears. I definitely will return with my friends and family.
Came here for lunch one day and was very pleased with the whole experience. They have a 'restaurant side' which has full-service or a fast-casual side where you can walk up to the counter and place and order. The ambience is very nice and the food is really good! We got the family style taco and choose carne asada and carnita as our meats and it was very good! And their margaritas were delish as wel
Wanted to try something new and Gallo Blanco via Google reviews was chosen today. Highly rated with amazing photos of the food it did not disappoint...The only challenge was trying to find parking. On the actual lot there's probably 8 parking spots with an additional 6 spots on the street. You walk into the restaurant and notice beautiful art work throughout. High ceilings with the frame visible and multiple areas that show the brick walls. I'm assuming the restaurant used to be a church or maybe an old store front years ago. Lots of choices on the menu and today's choices were a carne asada burrito and the La Parradilla " family tacos. Starting with the burrito,great tasting crispy tortilla filled with carne asada. Overall it was a good burrito,carne asada was good. I'm still on the hunt for a GREAT carne asada burrito.. On to the family tacos this was truly the star of the meal. 2 types of meat,6 corn tortillas,charred onion, pineapple and yellow pepper. Meats chosen were the barbacoa and pastor. There's so much meat you could literally make about 10-12 tacos. Barbacoa had a nice light char,good flavor (for context Taco boyz barbacoa had a little more flavor and wet). The pastor had great char and flavor was there ( for context I would have to say that Los taquitos Pastor has more of an oven cook to it with a different flavor that ranks a tad bit higher. Overall a great spot hidden in a historic neighborhood surrounded by homes. A hidden jewel worth visiting and will return.
Happy hour is from 3-6 they have wine/beer and margaritas for $5. The wine wasn’t great, stick with the margarita
The food was stellar- I had two alacart tacos- Al pastor and the puervo Colorado. Preferred the Al pastor but both were very good. Hubs said his burrito was ‘the best he’s ever had’ so there you go. We also shared some elote- very good.
The person next to us ordered Pozole (HUGE portion) so we ended up ordering one to go for lunch the following day. It was outstanding.
Service was super friendly as well.
Well, this was unexpected. What a great find. Everything was delicious. The asada tacos were well seasoned. The pastor was not goopy and had great flavor. The pork belly had a nice crisp and the pickled onions on top balanced the sweetness. Both salsas were great but I preferred the green, sweet cilantro flavor and decent heat. The Tres Leches was a perfect way to end the meal. I’ll definitely be back to try more!!!
A friend refers to Gallo Blanco as his favorite Mexican restaurant in the Valley, and now that I’ve been here I understand why! The tacos were utterly phenomenal (the pork belly was insane 🤤) and the cocktails were amazing. Huge shoutout to David for being such a fun bartender! Will definitely be back.
First time trying this place tonight. Have been wanting to try it. Our server (didn’t catch her name but receipt said Berry) was amazing, very friendly, attentive, and explained the menu well.
The food was delicious. I had chicken enchiladas, while my friends had a variety of foods. Everyone enjoyed their meals.
We also had two drinks each that’s were good as well. Overall for the four of us and two drinks each was about $160 (before tip)
I used to live three houses down and grew up coming to the American Way market for 25c fudgecicles and orange fanta bottles. I was bothered at first by seeing this old neighborhood “gentrified” or what have you. But on my first visit to Gallo Blanco, everything felt familiar. The other people in the restaurant felt like locals, not tourists. The food was traditional but not. There were some twists on Mexican staple foods, but the taste and the experience felt like being in the dining room or backyard of one of my friends houses eating Nana’s chilaquiles and tacos. A properly executed restaurant curates an experience. And that’s exactly what the crew at Gallo Blanco does. They serve up delicious meals and the feeling of Nana’s kitchen.
I visited what has become my favorite place to go for breakfast, El Gallo Blanco! The service was great. The staff is amazing, always serving with a smile. and the food is so tasteful and authentic! It is a pleasant surprise to find true and authentic flavors from México! Ask for the secret menu items!
Went here as a surprise invitation from my girl. I liked the little quaint out of the place very much. The atmosphere was festive and vibrant. The hostess and the cooks were great as well. The food was a combination of things that I would never have thought of and we got full on appetizers. Yummy!! Go as you will love it and be pleasantly surprised to say the least. Love the vibe!!
Visiting Phoenix for the day, and checked out Gallo Blanco based on the guacamole recommendations. The guacamole was wonderful, but the La bomba torte and the pork belly taco were even better. So yummy. I don’t think I’ve ever had a better taco. Loved the horchata and tres leche cake as well.
Great Mexican food with Urban feel with a splash of gourmet.
Best Margarita in town.
People are great. Ask for Holly. :-)
