La Gondola Spaghetti House

I don't understand!!! I grew up in Galesburg and LaGondola was a staple for 30 years. Family get togethers we have to have the garlic bread even grilling at the house. We get family feasts when everyone is home.
My wife and i moved to peoria from Chicago 3 years ago. All excited we have la gondola. It is just okay. The bread, the ravioli, sandwiches (because of the bread), sauce everything is subpar compared to Galesburg. Its not just Bartonville, its all of Peoria area on both sides of the river. I think everyone needs to go have a refresher course in Galesburg and see what the difference is.
Yes, when we go to my parents we still do La Gondolas in Galesburg. Its not like im remembering wrong. You can do your own taste test.

My favorite place, best garlic cheese bread ever.

The chef salad was good. I loved the ranch dressing! Fast and efficient for ordering your food. Thank you!

Togo order with special instruction was made perfectly. Tasted delicious!! Always a great meal for the family and a great break for Mom!! Thank you Lagondola for a great dinner and no clean up!!

I had the Pizza Burger & it was so yummy. Toasted with lots of cheese & toppings. The dining room is warm & inviting on this cold winter night. Friendly wait staff. Very busy place so you might want to phone ahead so you can walk in pick up your hot food. I had to take half mine home. More for tomorrow. Great place to eat.
