I think ppl are sleep on North Loop Galley... i know i was. It's located on Washington Ave, on the same block as Bunkers, good luck with parking if you're dinning in. If you're doing pick up, there is a short term pick up parking spot directly in front. (You're welcome, lol)
It gives me the same vibe as Graze, a few blocks away, in the sense that you're able to choose from 3 or 4 restaurants housed inside of the NL Galley and there is one bar. So in a sense it's reminiscent of the Graze, because you get to graze thru different restaurants in one venue. Currently there is an Asian restaurant Soul Fu, a pizza spot and a Hawaiian spot called Ono Hawaiian. I honestly thought it was a college food court when I walked by once, but I remember thinking, 'For what college?' LOL
Anywho, you're greeted by a friendly employee of NLG, who during heavier Covid times made you sign in, make you sanitize your hands and send you on your way! Practice is probably still the same.
Reminiscent of a food court, with a higher end feel, you can sit where you want, order what you want, they'll give you a number to locate you when you're food is ready. I've seen adult bday parties there, they have good music (at least the days I've been in there, which have been multiple since I first checked in many days ago!) and the drinks are pretty good. I feel like the bartenders aren't as focused on customers the way the personal businesses are, but that's just my opinion.... which is what you're here for!
Atmosphere is good; it's clean, spacious, nice crowd, mixture of ppl, and there's an outdoor section with a firepit for outdoor dining, if you can snatch a seat.
Looking forward to visiting again. I've dined in 2x and have had a lot of pickups since I first posted these pics. Check them out!
