About Gallino Pizza (Italian Restaurant)

Tucked into Heathwood, this family-run trattoria dishes out hearty Sicilian-rooted comfort food without cutting corners. Regulars head straight for the wood-fired pizzas—notably the pepperoni-crowned Margherita—or tuck into substantial plates of homemade lasagna and slow-simmered spaghetti Bolognese. The kitchen is equally happy to adjust dishes off-menu, whipping up vegetarian risottos or custom toppings on request. Bring a preferred bottle of red under their relaxed BYO policy, order a cheesy garlic calzone for the table, and let dinner unfold at an easy suburban pace.

  • Off-Menu Flexibility: The kitchen readily accommodates off-menu requests, from custom pizza toppings to made-to-order vegetarian risottos.
  • Substantial Portions: Hearty helpings of wood-fired pizzas, homemade lasagna, and creamy risottos make it easy to share or pack leftovers.
  • BYO Dining: Diners can bring their own bottles to pair with dinner alongside the restaurant's compact in-house wine list.
