About
GAL Mediterranean Cuisine is a single-location restaurant on Route 37 in Toms River. The menu centers on Turkish-style kebabs and flame-grilled dishes such as mixed grill, lamb shish kebab, branzino and grilled shrimp kebab. Online ordering, reservations and catering are offered.
GAL says its dishes follow recipes handed down through generations. The plates it features most are the lamb shish kebab, the grilled shrimp kebab and a mixed grill of flame-grilled meats served with rice. A mixed appetizer platter brings together house-made dips and meze with warm pita, and the branzino is a whole grilled sea bass served with vegetables and lemon.
The full menu is broader than the grill. It opens with a breakfast lineup of pancakes, French toast and waffles, crêpes, and eggs and omelettes, then moves through cold and hot appetizers, soups and salads, and separate meat, chicken and vegetable entrée sections. Seafood, pastas, dishes from the oven, a kids' menu, desserts and a prix fixe option complete it. Menu prices are not shown on the website's menu page.
The restaurant opens at 10 a.m. daily, closing at 10 p.m. Sunday through Thursday and at 11 p.m. on Friday and Saturday. Takeout is ordered through the website, tables are reserved on OpenTable, and catering starts with an inquiry form on the catering page, after which the team responds. The website also has a page for the restaurant's loyalty program.
