The pizza's taste - Edit
Well, i'm not vegetarion, even that i used to be...now i eat just what i'm felling, and when i'm fine and fell good Galleria can provide me a perfect combination. Taste is personal and unquestionable, but reading a so disgusting review called me up, well i don't agree, this place is nice and moreover than our opinion disagreement is your opinion, so taste it!

Galleria Organica - Edit
We had a great evening at Galleria Organica, the owner is very enthousiastic and the pizza was delicious, all organic and fresh.

Great ambience and host - pity about the food - Edit
We went on a Sunday night, we were the only customers. The owner was hilarious, an ex-New Yorker with an extraordinary life story, very interesting and a great host. Unfortunately, the pizza was terrible - the first ones were just about edible at a stretch, but my friend agreed that the second ones were possibly the worst either of us had ever had. As I write this over a month later I find myself remembering with horror the revolting taste of those later pizzas. I'd love to see this guy succeed - he's a great host, the venue's terrific, and it could become a superb concept. But please, read a cookbook, hire a chef, make the food a tenth as good as the excellent ambience and you're onto something. Good luck :)
Pros: ambience, host, service
Cons: terrible, terrible food

kennyp353 22 Feb 2013 - I received further abuse from Bret Flute, the owner of Galleria Organica - you can see these messages publicly posted on my profile, but for convenience I have copied them below. This is what you can expect if you visit this restaurant and then speak your mind on happycow.
In the week that passed between the two abusive messages below, extremely favourable reviews have appeared from two new members that joined 3 days ago. Each review contains a similar spelling mistake - "vegetarion" and "enthousiastic". One reviewer has only reviewed Galleria Organica, the other has also reviewed another venue but the review is basically a copy/paste of the venue's previous review. Draw your own conclusions.
I did nothing to this person except review his establishment. Decide for yourself whether you want to support this person and his business.
Here's the abuse you can see on my profile:
