The beef Wellington was amazing. The service (by Sue) was superb. I love the view. Goldmoor is truly an elegant place. To the reviewer who said the atmosphere was dated; I'd call it traditional and elegant. I loved it. And I do not think the restaurant is overpriced for the quality, service, atmosphere, and view that you receive.

We stayed at the inn and also purchased their sip n stay package which is a great deal because it gets you $50 off dinner at the restaurant. The wait staff is amazing and very knowledgable. You HAVE to get the beef Wellington, it may be the best I've ever had. Only complaint is they may be a little overpriced... More

What an elegant, relaxing dinner we had. We were three couples, and they gave us our own room. It was like being in some celebrity's dining room. We were not rushed, and we had a very enjoyable time visiting and savoring the food. Also there was a beautiful view of the Mississippi River. Food was wonderful.

We have been going to Galena for many years and were unaware of the beautiful experience that was in store for us when we went to Goldmoor Dining for the first time. The food, service, ambiance and the view were all spactacular. And, on that particular day, they were understaffed since they were supposed to be closed. They accepted our... More

I took my husband to dinner to celebrate his birthday. I wanted a special location to celebrate and The Goldmoor did not disappoint us. The front view is amazing, and we asked to sit next to the window so we enjoyed the most beautiful sunset with the Mississippi River view. The food and the staff are outstanding. A gem must... More

The food and service were excellent. We started with the Wild Mushroom Bruschettay which was outstanding. My wife and daughter had the Beef Wellington, I had the Ribeye. We had a terrific evening and will definitely be back.
