Gallura at The Breeze is a chic, pet-friendly Italian spot with some serious highs and lows. The truffle pizza is described as absolutely legendary and the tiramisu is a must-try for a perfect finish. However, the experience isn't flawless. Main courses can be a gamble and it’s on the pricier side. This review gives the inside scoop on what to order and, crucially, where to sit to ensure a fantastic, drama-free meal with your furry friend.
Didn't know where to Nongkrong over the weekend, so I just brought my doggo master along to check out Gallura at The Breeze in Tangerang. I wasn't expecting much from a restaurant in a mall, but... how should I put it, the experience was a bit complicated. Half heaven, half a bit emmm... Let me break it down for you.
The moment I walked in, the ambiance was truly impeccable—a very elegant European vibe, nice and quiet, perfect for a date or a small family meal. Most importantly, it's super pet-friendly[1], and my dog sat there like a little gentleman the whole time 🐶.
The complimentary welcome bread[2] they served right after we sat down was a pleasant surprise. It was warm and soft, and the accompanying tomato dip was very special too—insanely delicious! We ordered their signature truffle pizza[3], and honestly, this might be one of the most Mantap pizzas I've ever had around Jakarta! The dough was chewy, the truffle aroma just hits you right in the soul, the ingredients were fresh, Anjay! For the pasta, we tried the angel hair[4], which was also above average. The tiramisu[5] we had to finish things off was also super legit. It had that heavenly taste that just makes you feel happy, very Chill.
But, after all the praise, it's time for some real talk. Their consistency is a bit hit or miss. While my pizza and dessert were knockout hits, I heard my friend's steak wasn't cooked to the right doneness, and the pork belly was a bit dry[6], so it feels like the quality control for the main courses isn't very stable. The price is also definitely not cheap. The two of us spent almost 750k[7] on a casual meal, and they don't even provide free water; you have to buy bottled water, which feels a bit stingy, you know.
Key Takeaways! Your Guide to What to Avoid/Go For
- Choosing your seat is key: When you book, make sure to request a seat far from the kitchen! We were seated close by and could hear the head chef yelling at the staff the whole time... It's hard to enjoy even the most delicious food with that going on[8].
- Ordering Guide: Go for the truffle pizza and tiramisu without a second thought! You absolutely can't go wrong. Other main courses might be a gamble, so try them with caution.
- Good News for Pet Owners: You can definitely bring your fur babies. It's a rare find for a pet-friendly fine dining restaurant in the BSD area.
- Surprises for Special Occasions: If it's for a birthday or anniversary, remember to let the restaurant know in advance. They might give you a little surprise, like a complimentary dessert[9]
- Quiet, elegant European spot that's pet-friendly, so you can Nongkrong with your fur babies [1].
- The Truffle Pizza's aroma is heavenly. With fresh ingredients, it's called one of Jakarta's most Mantap pizzas [2].
- Don't miss the Tiramisu—it's pure happiness and the perfect Chill ending to your meal [3].
