“ Right there under our noses! The warmest of owners and the tastiest of comfort/soul food. COVID hit these guys hard, but they are still standing and a very worthy stop for a solid visit to old school welcome home food. We had the Wednesday meatloaf. Lovely. ”

“ The food was very yummy. My belly was nice and full after I finished eating. I ordered the ribs and sausage, coleslaw, and cornbread. The gentleman that took my order was extremely kind and hospitable. The indoor seating area at the time did not have the A/C working, it might have been out of order. This is a no-frills establishment. ”

“ Galloway's has been hiding in plain sight. I've enjoyed all 3 meals I have tried at this little spot. If you are interested in food that tastes homemade then this is your spot. There's nothing fancy about the restaurant or food but it feels welcoming and tastes good. I first had the beef enchiladas which remind me of my Granny's...nothing remotely tex mex about this but it's good! Next I tried the beef tips and rice. This was better than average but lacked real flavor...or maybe some salt. The green peas and cream corn set the meal off just right though. Lastly I had the salisbury steak with mashed potatoes and mac & cheese. My mouth is watering thinking of the flavorful gravy used to make this meal a hit. Oh yea the corn bread...bam instant winner. I wasn't going to tell yall because I like it SO much but they also have banana pudding which has real bananas and nilla wafers. I dont know where they are hiding the meal prices but even with dessert my total was never more than $13. I recommend this spot over the other more popular "soul food" spots in Austin. ”

“ Love this restaurant and love the people there. They always make me feel welcome. My favorites are the Salisbury steak, friend chicken, fried catfish, meatloaf, smothered pork chops, baked chicken…wait a minute. That’s almost every main dish they make. Well, I guess it’s all great food. :-) ”

“ Don't judge a book by its cover like I almost did. Go inside it's worth it. Friendly atmosphere, they checked on us a few times and the food was outstanding pork chops flavourful with mashed potatoes and gravy and oh lawd the greens and cornbread,sweet tea with a slice of strawberry cake. ”
