Gallio

You're walking into something refreshingly unfussy for this neighbourhood. Gallio takes Mediterranean ingredients seriously—think wood-fired vegetables, quality seafood, and the kind of olive oil that actually tastes like something. The dining room has that pleasant, unforced elegance that doesn't announce itself loudly; you're here for the food, not the posturing. Service is genuinely warm, the sort of place where staff seem to actually care whether you're enjoying yourself. It's got proper neighbourhood energy despite being plonked on the Cabot Square estate—feels less like eating in a corporate plaza and more like stumbling into somewhere locals rate.
