The Gladly

Last week I went to The Galdly with some friends for a going away party and had a great time! We had an amazing server who joked with us but also gave us some great recommendations and described every dish perfectly. The service and ambiance is perfect for any occasion from a birthday dinner to a fancy date night. To start we got the crudo which was very tender and topped with a delicious cucumber salad. I could’ve eaten multiple plates of this appetizer! The spinach dip was also the best I have ever had, I would go back just for this side. My herb crusted chicken was served on top of a Parmesan mushroom risotto that was rich but not too filling, perfect for a side with the chicken. The chicken was juicy and cooked just right, an all around amazing dish.

I was craving a cheeseburger and was willing to pay good money for it. I happened to be shopping near Whole Foods and although there was In & Out and a few other affordable options, I wanted something decadent. I had previously been to The Gladly on a dinner date many years ago and then again for brunch. I was not disappointed. I walked in and was kindly greeted by a hostess. There were a few large lunch parties, smaller groups, and others sitting at the bar. I was seated in at a lovely table and presented a menu by my waiter Alex. It also happened to be happy hour for drinks. I ordered the cheese burger with American cheese and a side of tater tots. (I said no to the pickle because it's a sweet pickle and that does not suit my taste buds.) The burger was delicious. I decided to try the Thai Margarita which really rounded out the meal. It was so good that I ordered a 2nd one. I would definitely go back! Thanks Alex for a great lunch.

It was a beautiful evening, so we sat outside. The service was excellent. I got an espresso martini while I was waiting for my friend and they had them prepared already in a slushy machine. The bartender remembered my name when I came back by after dinner. My halibut was spectacular, crispy and scrumptious, as you can tell from the picture. We also got Thai margaritas for dinner. They had a nice spice coating around the rim. The lamb lollipops appetizer was to kill for, well I wouldn’t kill, but you know what I mean. In all, I will definitely go to the Gladly the next time I’m in town. I’m curious if she will still remember my name….

Pleasantly surprised when we discovered this nice restaurant in the Biltmore area. Great scotch library and delicious artful menu offerings. There’s something for everyone, and the service was attentive without being annoying. We had the burrata and chopped salad to start and both were excellent. The salmon, short ribs and heritage pork chop also done really well. We also had a couple of desserts that were the perfect ending to a great meal. Check out this place if you’re in the area; a great spot for date night too!

The two times ive gone to the gladly now have both been excellent. The vibe of the restaurant is so fun while also relaxed. It's the kind of place you want to stay at for a while and enjoy yourself. The drinks are delicious, as is the food. The green Chile artichoke dip was a standout. Our server was fun and friendly as well. Our group got everything we needed and more. Highly recommend.

I removed stars from my review because the first picture on Google shows oysters, which the restaurant hasn't served in many years. Having oysters was one of the reasons we chose to come here, so it was very disappointing. I recommend that they at least remove that misleading image. Overall, the food was fresh, although the service was a bit slow. However, the staff went above and beyond to help me celebrate my graduation, which I greatly appreciate! The chicken risotto was my absolute favorite! Very rich and deep in flavor! The bread pudding was also very delicious!

The atmosphere is great, very comfortable, inviting, and decorated well. The space is a little smaller, and there is not much room to walk between tables when folks are sitting, but it doesn't ruin the experience. The food was delicious! For an appetizer we got the burrata, so good! For a main dish I got the salmon, it was one of the better salmon dishes I have had in a long time. I don't usually eat the salmon skin but it was cooked to perfection on this dish, I ate it all. The cocktails were delicious as well, I enjoyed the espresso martini and a dirty martini with blue cheese olives. Yum!! The service was great, very attentive, and friendly. We will be back!

The atmosphere is very nice and open. We went around early evening around happy hour time. Our server was very attentive. As the starter, we got the cutino sweet heat wings which had a good flavor profile and were nicely cooked. It was also nice and steamy when we got it. The pesto dressing is good but does have more of a ranch flavor to it. For the main course, we ordered the herb roasted chicken and the wester Ross Scottish salmon. The salmon was delicious through and through with an amazing crunchy skin. To finish off dinner, we had a blood orange sorbet which was also good. It's an uncommon flavor and it seems like they change out the flavors occasionally.
