Gallery Cafe is an unassuming name serving unassuming casual breakfast & lunch food in a sleepy sea of expensive bland lunch options. With no advertising and the slightest hard-to-see sign or visibility from the closest street, one would only know about this by work of mouth. Gallery Cafe is truly a "diamond in the rough".
This is defined by (1) hard working and courteous folks behind the counter, (2) the utterly insane menu pricing that seem to be stuck in time from 15 years' past, and (3) the ridiculous value you get from the big breakfast and korean spicy pork or bulgogi lunch options.
For $6.99, the big breakfast is a steal with 2 eggs, meat, 2 toasts, and country potatoes. Or for $6.99, the pancake breakfast comes with 2 huge pancakes, 2 eggs, and meat (OH, and the each pancake is lovingly buttered edge to edge on the hot griddle --- who does this!?!). And for $13.99 lunch, hands down the korean spicy pork or bulgogi lunch options are the best items given the large portions that come with. These same items at any other fast food chain or restuarant will almost certainly cost 20-30% more in today's post-covid, inflation-fanned social babble.
{ Btw..... did I mention that each pancake is lovingly buttered edge to edge on the hot griddle --- who does this!?! }
Overall, the menu prices on everything else is great. Again, there is no secret food item or some michelin star chef chained up in the back creating experimental dishes. Just taste the hardworking American effort here and you will get your value's worth.

I love starting my day with a breakfast sandwich from here, but nothing can beat their French Toast breakfast! It's so delicious and delightful, it makes any day better.

Super friendly Korean ladies making delicious sandwiches, paninis, burritos, etc. Great attractive breakfast/lunch cafe in an office building, with plenty of big windows. Lots of regulars who don't even have to tell their order. Taking home bulgogi for later! Recommended!

Everything on the menu is made to order and the daily specials are usually excellent. Family owned and operated, Gallery Cafe is terrific for a quick lunch in the area. I have also had their breakfast on more than one occasion and would recommend that also if time permits. They do a great job serving many customers quickly and can customize your order as you wish.
Reviews are correct -- great service and food alike. Sampled both the Korean Dish of the Day and the wide range of sandwiches. Well priced and quick turn. Definitely recommend if your looking for a more home cooked quick and easy meal. Staff is also very attentive making for a pleasing experience.
I eat here almost everyday with an average bill of 15 dollars. I enjoy the food-best and affordable in the area. I was not please with my visit today because after ordering my food I went to the register. After picking up my food I turn to find a seat and the cook (taller asian woman) screams my order at the cashiers to make sure I paid. This was extremely rude and made me very uncomfortable being the only person of color in the cafe at the time. I come in enough to where they should feel comfortable with me and even if I didn't come in often, that's disgusting! I will start going to the cafe down the hall.
