I went for my birthday dinner on a Tuesday, the food was incredible so good, large portions, the ambiance was amazing but what really stood out for me was the service I do not remember the name of the two gentlemen taking care of us but they were incredible!!!! So so amazing would definitely come again. ------ Fui a mi cena de cumpleaños un martes, la comida era increíble, tan buena, porciones grandes, el ambiente era increíble, pero lo que realmente me llamó la atención fue el servicio. No recuerdo el nombre de los dos caballeros que nos cuidaron, ¡pero fueron increíbles! Tan increíble que definitivamente volvería de nuevo. read more

Los Gallegos Restaurant - Spanish Near Me - Miami, Florida

Located in a corner for what feel like an eternity, Los Gallegos serves old school Spanish cuisine. The interior is small and its vibe feels like it 1970s Spain. The menu contains all types of tapas so we ordered the Galician Octopus and their cod croquettes to start. The octopus was very tender and tasty, while the star of the meal were the croquettes very creamy interior without the strong fish flavor. For the main entree we ordered their black ink paella which included chucks of seafood. The rice unfortunately was very bland to the point we had to add some salt on our own. For dessert we ordered the torta de Santiago which is a sweet almond pie. Very disappointing very hard and it was not as sweet as we would like. The waiters were really nice and always attentive but the food just didn't meet our expectations. read more

Had the caldo gallego. Huge portion it was delicious. The sea bass was amazing had to take it home as I was full to the hilt.

Best Spanish food in town Cozy with a good food and wine Great If the owner, Victor is there, it's a 400% Without him, vest place (now Casa Paco closed, in town read more

You get a seafood bag from el presidente for $ 5 Tossed into the rice, add some calamar ink to it and called black paella... then charge $25 but you have to buy TWO, then they tell you you have to wait 45 minutes ( so they tell you) it was done in less than 30?minutes. Flavorless, not tasting like seafood paella. And they ask you how was it? I had travel the world and never had this bad experience in my life.. they make feel like a fool. They bought from Gallegos people, but is you typical Cuban rip off read more

Ordered two tapas: the fried calamari and they brought it with pink sauce (mayo and ketchup). There is nothing Spanish about it, aioli at least would be more acceptable. I also ordered the Mar y Tierra tapas and although I got a significant amount of jamon serrano and smoked salmon, only 3 pieces of anchovies which is another menu item on its own was quite disappointing. I am not looking for a full meal when I order tapas but common, not even a 1/3 of a can of anchovies has the little. The server asked me twice how was it in a loud and police interrogating manner, where do they get their training at a police station? Sorry, but for that price and the "fanfare" that this place get, I won't be back. read more

We went for a late lunch and when we arrived, we were seated promptly. The ambiance was nice, with music playing softly. Our server, Victor was great! He brought us water and we ordered some wine too. We shared the camarones al ajillo, the garbanzos fritos, and the octopus. All were tasty. For our entrees we shared the sea bass and the langostines. Everything was delicious. I'd definitely recommend this restaurant. read more

Hands down the best authentic tapas place in Miami. Been coming here for over 25 years. Don't miss it. A hidden gem.

Los Gallegos is on my way to work, so I drive by it daily. I finally decided to give them a try and they did not disappoint. Our waiter Ramon was exceptional, he made us feel like we're family. Everything we ordered was tasty and freshly made. Inside was spotless, quiet, and cozy. We will definitely come back more often. read more

This was my first time trying this restaurant... and it didn't disappoint. Ordered one of my favorite dishes; a beef empanada. To go together with the empanada, I also ordered their Garbanzo beans with chorizo. It was flavorful and was a good complement with the bread. For the main entree, I went with their Pechuga de pollo, with sautéed vegetables. I loved it because the chicken was very tender. I had a great dining experience and the servers were very friendly. Will recommend this place to anyone who likes a homey experience read more

Delicious food, very well seasoned. Old style of service with very attentive servers that know their menu. The chef made a point to come to the table and ask if the food was too our liking (a rare thing nowadays) and it was our first time here. The restaurant was clean but it could use a little remodeling (you can see the worn out decor). Overall a very pleasant experience. read more

Los Gallegos Restaurant - Paella "Campesina"!! - Spanish Near Me - Miami, Florida

Happy to say that after some years the Garlic soup was delicious full of garlic and savory broth very comforting ! The Zarzuela de Mariscos was good but not too flavorful and we asked for rice which was a little hard and dry. The Peras al vino were good and so was the coffee. Service was friendly and efficient. read more

I stopped by for a quick tapas dinner with a friend and chose this spot because it was right in the middle. If the intro seems basic that's because our experience was too. Granted, we got there a little after 8pm (work n stuff) but closing time wasn't ostensibly for another hour. Some menu recommendations or more attentive service would have been nice. Besides I've done at other restaurants where this didn't seem to be an issue. That's the main downer in this writeup. My friend said the Spanish omelette she ordered tasted a little plain; she did leave a portion of it. They didn't offer to bring sugar for her coffee. That said, she did like the cod croquetas she ordered. Our sangria was nice and sweet, with just the right amount of buzz. As far as my order, I really enjoyed the patatas brava. The texture of the potatoes, and amount of spicy was really good. The serrano ham and manchego cheese was decent as well, and the crema catalana was sweet with a perfect crust. The dessert by itself almost made this review much higher! read more

Wow and double WOW!! Little hidden gem in Miami. Domingo and Victor are the best servers ever. They greet you at the door and make your dining experience unique and personal. The place is full of locals that have been coming here for decades. It' has the feel of an authentic Spanish tapas place in Spain. The food?? I cannot describe in words. You need to eat it to believe it. Calamari so tender and lightly pan fried, octopus grilled to perfection so much that every bite reminds me of eating a filet mignon. Just stop and try it. It is that freaking good. read more

My 70-something year old mother is a regular at Los Gallegos since she loves Spanish cuisine and Los Gallegos has really delicious Spanish food. An old family friend invited my mother, my teenage son and middle-aged me to lunch and this was the place we chose to eat with her. My mom did a great job ordering for us since she knew their portions were large. We all shared the fish soup, fried calamari (squid) and seafood paella. Then each of us ordered different desserts: the flan, the creme brûlée, chocolate cake and pears poached in wine accompanied by a cup of coffee (either cappuccino or espresso). Every dish was rich in flavor and absolutely delicious! The soup and the paella had generous portions of fish and seafood! The desserts were really nice too! The couple at the table adjacent to ours also appeared to be regulars. They ordered different bottles of wine and tried several of the dishes including fried calamari, grilled octopus and a platter full of assorted grilled fish. This is a family-friendly and family-run business that was very welcoming to all customers as if they were eating at the home of close family friends rather than at a restaurant. Victor, Domingo, Charlie/Carlos and Oscar were all very kind, friendly, helpful and attentive to us as well as to all the other customers at Los Gallegos. We had excellent service with a smile and they also took photos of us seating at our table o we would remember that wonderful meal. read more

Los Gallegos Restaurant - Spanish Near Me - Miami, Florida

Went to Los Gallegos for lunch a few days ago with my father. The place is nice but located in a corner next to a coin laundromat. Parking is very limited. Have been wanting to try this place for a while and finally got the chance. The food was really good. Very authentic Spanish food. I ordered the Jam Croquetas which were delicious and straight out of the fryer. We also ordered the gambas al ajillo as well as the mushrooms with jam in garlic which I also enjoyed. My father ordered a garlic soup which he wasn't impressed with. I tried it and it was ok. Honestly I never order that soup anywhere so I can't compare. For desert we ate a Crema Catalana which lasted a few seconds. Very delicious with a nice sugar crust. Service was excellent with a mom and pop style to it. I believe it was the owner that took care of us but to be honest I didn't ask. It's was half filled with people for lunch which surprised me, but I'm sure it's more of a dinner restaurant. Nice to have it near my house to get our Spanish cuisine fix. I recommend it if you live in the area. read more

This is is an OG spot and definitely hits anytime you want yummy Spanish food. The folks here are nice and welcoming. The ambiance isn't anything to rave about, it's a very local and neighborhood Mom and Pop spot. If you're in the neighborhood and want good food, this is a great spot! read more

Victor orchestrated a beautiful, traditional Spanish meal. Out night began with an Iberico ham and Manchego cheese plate, but the festive tone really arrived with the the delicious Crianza wine he suggested. A few tapas later and we felt transported to Barcelona. If you are looking for an artisanal authentic Spanish family restaurant experience, Los Gallegos will delight. read more

Just returned from a Spaniard vacation and considering the lack of the right ingredients I'm in an honest position to say that people are doing a great job with the limitations they have on hand .... Great flavor , superb portions and a very decent price will make this destination a great experience for you and your family read more

We've been here about three times and some of what they do is good. The croquetas are a good example. However, their service is pretty bad. Despite Yelp and Google reporting that they're open until 11:00, we were asked to "hurry up" placing our orders at 9:30 because apparently they decided to close early tonight. I said I don't like to be rushed and their attitude got worse as they just shrugged it off. There's no space for rudeness given today's circumstances. I'll likely not revisit this place given all the better Spanish options so close by. read more

I don't recall a paella this bad in my life. It was basically some yellow rice with a LOT of pieces of chicken breast and a couple of shrimp and clams and that's it. Sopa de ajo was a bowl of dark red grease, couldn't eat it. Equally bad was the dessert, which was crema catalana in which the sugar coating could not be broken even with the knife. The service was mediocre, the place is small and the parking is horrific. By now you can guess, I'll never go back there again. If you're looking for authentic Spanish food, this is not the place. read more

Delicioso buena atención buenos precios , estacionamiento pequeño . El pulpo muy bueno los mejores boquerones

Family enjoyed this place. Simple but delicious. All the calamari dishes were so tender and NOT really rubbery. Sea bass and shrimp were both cocked perfectly. Docked 1 star bc the dive of veges was basically mixed veges that felt like a bag of frozen grocery store veges, and the salads were a pale romaine base. read more

I was told that the food here was pretty good. So we spent this past summer in Spain for our family vacation, and wanted to recreate some of the memories. I gotta say that the food was spectacular, we ordered a few tapas like, garbanzo frito, manchego y jamón serrano, gambas con ajo, croquetas, pimentones con bacalao. For the main dish we ordered a day ahead cochinillo, which was served with papas. We had several desserts like crema Catalina, pastel de almendra, and the house special pear al vino. The wine was very good as well, full flavor and selected by the owner. All-n-all we had a great time and a very good meal. read more

Nice small restaurant with great service and good food, we ordered Bacalao a la Viscaína (cod), Fabada and octopus, everything was well prepared and authentic spanish recipes. Prices are also good. The only thing I didn't like was dessert...I had a piece of Tarta de Santiago (almond tart) and it was the worst tarta I've ever had, it was soggy and dry and didn't taste like almonds at all only like regular flour :( ...if it wasn't for this I would have rated the restaurant with more stars. read more

Great food, great service, and the ambiance is very relaxed. Mr. Victor is a great host and makes sure that you are well taken care of.

This place is amazing! It has become one of our favorite places to eat. Best Pulpo I have consistently eaten in Miami Spanish restaurants. Everything we ate was flawless. From the potatoes to the veggies. Even the oil they have on the table tastes different. I love how they cook the pulpo and that is an understatement. The Mignon in this restaurant is one if my favorites, which usually I never pick in other places as I rather choose churrasco. The Corvina is another winner for my wife. It's gooooöd! They offer fresh and high quality products and when you try the dish you can tell. They offer a great selection of wines and they are very proud of their selections. Finca Torremilanos produccion unica del 2014 Ribera Del Duero being the last one we ordered and was a winner throughout our table. read more
