Gallo Coal Fire Kitchen: A fresh take on fast food

It may seem like fast food isn't really that fast anymore. 

But there's hope! Thanks to Gallo Coal Fire Kitchen. 

The Italian restaurant has been open for about a year in Lewiston, and customers are impressed. 

Restaurant owner Michael Hibbard (yes, kin to the Hibbard's Custard dynasty!) says it's because of their unique coal fire hearth--they have the only one in all of Western New York. 

He says, "This furnace burns at around 1,000 to 1,200 degrees, which produces a real super thin, crispy crust on the pizza--a lot different from wood fire."

With Western New York being a hotbed for culinary innovation, Gallo bakes up mouth-watering masterpieces, including a Buffalo chicken pizza. 

The restaurant caters to all taste buds--from meat-lovers to vegetarians. Gluten-free pasta is also an option. 

Gallo opens at 4 p.m. during the week and opens at 11 a.m. on Saturday and Sunday. 

In the mood for fresh fast food, put Gallo Coal Fire Kitchen to the test!
