I love to have lunch with my husband in this little cozy restaurant. We both are Italians and we like only high quality food and here we know we can always get the best fresh sea food in the area. Excellent combination of flavours wonderfully presented. We also like the ambiance and the lovely informal but very professional service. Last but not least a great selection of wines… We really are lucky to have such an amazing independent quality restaurant in town! Thank you guys. Ps: please try the oysters and remember to book the table it’s only 15 seats!!!

Galleria is still our absolute favourite in a town where we are spoilt with the quality and choice of great places to eat. Several of our visiting friends and family have commented that Gianluca's cuisine is the best food they've ever eaten – a definite trend – so it's not just us! For a very special celebration, we took over the restaurant, the food was wonderful and a year later, friends and family still talk about that memorable night. We visited recently to celebrate another special landmark and the evening couldn't have been lovelier. The menu is small, presenting sustainably sourced, seasonal dishes, which changes frequently. There is always choice for vegetarians, alongside excellent fish and seafood. We don't have oysters locally but they are sourced from the finest providers and always deliciously fresh. A range of European and English wines complement the dishes, Jack always gives informed advice when we want a change from our favourites. Whatever is on the menu, Galleria will not disappoint. Just phone to book or follow on Instagram for available tables, it's tiny, intimate with a convivial buzz and genuinely lovely service.

I'm astonished that Galleria isn't a more prominent establishment. Were it situated in London, I have no doubt it would consistently be fully booked. I stumbled upon this hidden gem and couldn't have been more pleased about my discovery. Gianluca was very friendly and exhibited remarkable diligence in addressing my garlic allergy concerns. He dedicated time to meticulously analyse the menu, identifying options to accommodate my dietary needs. Such exceptional attentiveness is a rarity in my dining experiences. As for the food, it exceeded all expectations - well cooked and exceptionally tasty. A flawless 10/10 rating across the board is well-deserved. Without a doubt, I will return to Hastings, solely for the prospect of dining once more at Galleria.

I visited this restaurant with my brother last night and we had a terrific meal. Friendly and attentive service, great dishes and good atmosphere. We had the fishcake starter, and the sea bream, finishing with the cheeseboard - it was all delicious, and beautifully presented. Plus a good wine list. If I was forced to suggest an improvement, I'd suggest one or two more biscuits with the cheese. But that's about it. It was our second visit, and we'd happily go again. Indeed, I'm sure we will. Thanks to all at Galleria.

There ought to be a Galleria in every town! I very rarely comment on trip advisor but this small restaurant is worthy of fulsome praise. My starter of sea bream tartare was on another level with complex flavours. I seriously could have eaten 10 plates of this alone. Hake was my choice of main and it arrived perfectly cooked on a bed a nudja spiced chickpeas. A beautiful combination. The lime and lemon posset with strawberries was sublime. Clearly the chef has huge talent and the service was efficient and friendly. What more can you ask for? St Leonards-on-Sea should count itself very lucky to have such a wonderful restaurant.

Delightful restaurant which serves very high quality food and wines. It’s focus is primarily on seafood, serving the freshest and best of the catch landed at Hastings that day. But vegans and vegetarians are also well catered for. I have a couple of food intolerances which we made them aware of when booking, and when we arrived they had annotated a menu especially for me to show what was suitable and could be modified to reflect my restrictions. Talk about going above and beyond! Service was friendly, attentive and low-key all at the same time. There are an increasing number of high-end restaurants vying for attention in St Leonard’s, which is quickly gaining a reputation as a foodie destination. Galleria certainly deserves its spot in that hall of honour.

Wow, we had a delicious meal in this gorgeous little seafood restaurant. It doesn't brag in any way (frontage and interior are elegant and understated) but my goodness the food should be shouted about. We booked for a Friday night and this is recommended as the place is little. The tuna tartare with creamed burrata and little touches of orange was a delight, as were the crisp light fritto misto. Our mains were so different yet equally tasty: rich zingy crab linguine and delicate turbot with asparagus. The wine we chose was delicious and there were plenty of price options. Watch out for the potent Negroni's! Great service and the place is full of special touches. We wouldn't have found Galleria had it not been recommended by a lady in lovely local clothes shop. In a place like St.Leonards/Hastings with so many food options this restaurant is wonderful and heads above the rest - we're passing on the recommendation as it shouldn't be missed. Many thanks to chef x

I loved this restaurant which was a total surprise. I live inBrighton which is full of restaurants and often eat out but this small simply furnished restaurant tucked away in Norman Rd was perfection! The attention to detail was great lovely glasses , napkins and gurgling fish jug for water and the food was absolutely delicious. I popped in for a relaxed lunch and just had a selection of starters . There is a slight bias towards Italian cuisine as the chef is from Italy. My choices were Rye Bay scallops beautifully served on a bright orange squash purée with little pieces of crispy bacon and a tiny pea shoot and cucumber salad. The presentation was so pretty and taste divine. Also the famous Italian Fritto Misto light with a crisp floured coating then fried but not at all oily with king prawns ,whitebait squid and a gorgeous dip of lime and mustard mayo. Last dish was a simple but perfect wild bass tortellini in a bowl with a perfectly seasoned broth with spring onions and toasted sesame. Wish I could have stayed for a main course ….next time !!! I can’t recommend this little gem enough . Absolute bliss ! Such a wonderful find .Thank you Galleria.

A delicious experience! The service is warm welcoming and knowledgeable. The Chef has a great palette! Fresh quality produce and a good wine list. A must go Restaurant for lunch or dinner. Book in advance for this Gem In Hastings More from the website Galleria opened in August 2020. It was the dream of owners Gianluca Tozzi & Jack Booth to create a small local restaurant and bar for seafood enthusiasts. Chef Gianluca has brought all his skills from the coast in Puglia, Italy, to the local seaside where he has for a number of years built personal relationships with the fishermen and women of Hastings. The menu at Galleria frequently changes to reflect the seasonality of the local catch. We believe this is incredibly important, not only as Galleria is based a stones throw from the oldest beach- launched fishing fleet in Europe, but also to sustainably support the local industry. Our wines are carefully selected to compliment our fish and seafood menu. They are all European and the list changes in line with the seasons. Galleria is a small, intimate space, designed in a simple contemporary style allowing the food and wine to take centre stage. Galleria was listed in “The Good Food Guides Platinum List 2021” - Best Newcomers…one of 18 restaurants in the UK to be included.

My mother was delighted to be going to this small restaurant for her 87th birthday as she is nervous about going out during the pandemic, and she was greatly reassured to know that the numbers of diners are kept to a strict maximum. Our evening was intimate with care taken to attend to our every wish. The lovely waitress, Rachel, was able to advise us regarding wine, and was happy to accommodate the different requirements of our party. I was so relieved to see the menu, which was compact enough for me to read without exhaustion as I had forgotten my glasses! Having just a small number of dishes to choose from makes the choosing so much easier, in my experience. Gianluca, the chef, was visible at work and it's so nice to be able to thank the chef personally after a wonderful meal of the freshest oysters, scrumptious king prawns and other fruits de mer, and delectable monkfish. I am looking forward to another dinner here very soon!

It's no mean feat to open a restaurant during lockdown, but having navigated the first and second with style (serving gorgeous takeaways with absolutely banging food; providing delicious deli items too) it's great that Galleria can finally open their doors as a sit-down venue again. This is the perfect place to have a glass of fizz (from their expertly curated wine list), and oysters on a Saturday afternoon, or sit in for an evening to enjoy a long, delicious meal of many courses. It's a treat to come here, and Jack and Gianluca are the perfect team- gracious, generous and absolutely brilliant at what they do.

Finest seafood in St Leonards on Sea. This restaurant is a real gem very close to the seafront in St Leonards. Great menu with fresh fish. I highly recommend the Frito Misto starter which is octopus, prawns, squid and whitebait all served lightly battered and fried with a tabasco mayonnaise. The mains are fresh local fish and a vegetarian option today was broccoli lasagne and it tastes amazing. Great wine selection which is very reasonably priced with good choices. Reservations required and excellent service.

It takes confidence to present food with a backdrop quite as stripped back as Galleria. But with the dishes these boys create, it’s not surprising where their confidence comes from. Beautiful creations are allowed to shine next to the plain, deep green walls. With food this good, who needs distractions! Dishes from a perfectly short daily menu take fresh fresh ingredients and do just sufficient to bring out their signature flavours. A smoked mackerel pâté, a carpaccio of sea bass with a clever contrast of diced and crisped skin, a superb linguine and a dozen utterly perfect Colchester oysters come with one of three condiments - and not a sharp shallot mignonette in sight. If distractions form part of a meal for you, there is the single white chrysanthemum, the Arthur Price cutlery ( Sophie Conran’s Rivelin) and the little tea light holders from across the road in Shop and the one framed masterpiece on the wall - any more distraction would be to miss the masterpiece right in front of you!

I’m shocked at the positive reviews on here. The food was absolutely terrible! My Dad’s chicken was pink. My childs peppers were like jelly and the burger was black. I don’t usually complain but I couldn’t eat a thing. There was also hardly anything available on the menu. It was honestly the worst meal I have had.

Although I haven't eaten here yet, the items for sale cast you back and back and back to a time when people lived with good sense, they collected things to keep for life, and the sight of all those classic dishes, linens, brushes, lights, glassware and cutlery, etc etc makes me want to move back into the past and forget this modern time which feels so flimsy by comparison.

Nice location, friendly staff. Diet coke and lime cordial served in large wine glasses, no ice! Had to ask twice for a jug of water. I ordered lamb chops, which were nice, but accompanying veg very meagre. My wife had steak but didn't want the chips they came with so asked for extra salad - this didn't seem possible as salad was very small when it arrived. Pitta bread also insufficient. Dessert menu = one option, baklava. All in all, rather disappointing.
