    We had the beet salad, scallops, gnocchi, and beef Wellington. Each with unique and interesting ingredients and unexpected flavor combinations—like kimchi, apple pie filling and scallops. A combination that would make you shake your head and say no way, but it was so good! Best meal I’ve had in a long time. Wouldn’t change a thing accept to make the nice size portions bigger lol. My husband and I appropriately cleaned each plate with the wonderful bread. Highly recommend!

    All entrees are unique. Flavors are wonderful. Wait staff and owner are welcoming and attentive. The setting is beautiful. If you are in the Galena area and in the mood for a higher end meal experience, go!

    Service and food were excellent. Had some ZZ-top playing in the background which didn't fit the vibe -- but overall would recommend!

    We had made a reservation several weeks in advance. When we arrived (well in advance of our reservation) we were not seated in the main dining room but a backroom space. Had let them know it was our 25th wedding anniversary so thought we would be seated in a more formal area. The owner (I presume) was not very attentive to us as to others. The wait staff not only takes your order but is your bartender as well. So had to wait a little longer than usual. But our server was amazing despite this.

    We had a fantastic meal with a stunning sunset over the Mississippi River. Jocelyn was an attentive and professional waitress whom we very much enjoyed. Highly recommend the short drive out to this lovely restaurant. Hope to stay there soon and do the chef’s table!

    We took our granddaughter here as we were visiting Galena for the weekend. I informed the restaurant via Open Table and phone, that were we taking her to this fancy restaurant because it’s her 5 th birthday celebration. I confirmed with a phone call When we arrived they acknowledged it was her 5 th birthday. However, what a disappointment for a 5 year old as we ordered desserts and they didn’t have a candle or any acknowledgment of the occasion. Nothing!!!! Shame on you!

    We have been guests here having both breakfast and dinner. Always enjoyed everything Goldmoor has to offer. This time we came and brought friends with for dinner. Their first time and knocked it out of the park. We ordered the gnocchi and scallop appetizer. Excellent! For entrees we have beef Wellington, venison and Ramen. Again! Excellent! We had the desserts, carrot cake and the other I could not remember the name but was like a purée seasonal item. Can’t wait to be back! Love the food and staff. May your success continue!
