Pizzeria GalloNero - Meißen

A cozy spot in the old town. My lasagna was pretty average, but my companion enjoyed her salad very much. Took quite a while to get our food, but perhaps they were understaffed for what they expected to be a slow evening (although the Christmas market was still going when we arrived). Pleasant server, charming decor. Pretty inexpensive, so not a bad choice if you want to save a few Euros.

The Pizza was really good, but we didn't stay for dessert nor will be ever go back there. The sun was out and they offer seating outside. When we walked up we noticed that only one table was set and had cushions on the hard wood chairs. There was no sign on the table that indicated that this table was reserved. Two other restaurants directly next to this place had cushions on all their chairs and table settings on all their tables. We assumed that we were expected to sit at the only table which was set and had cushions on the chairs, which is what we did. The other two restaurants had customers, this Pizzaria none. The waitress comes up to us and asks if we have a reservation. No greeting at all. I thought she wanted to tell us that we wouldn't be served unless we had reserved a table, but as it turned out she meant that the table we sat at was reserved. I explained why we came to sit there and she snapped that she doesn't set tables unless they are reserved and walks away. I suppose we were expected to know this? We stood there for a few seconds before I convinced my husband to stay anyway. We had been walking around all day looking for a restaurant we liked and I just wanted to eat and go to the hotel room. The rest of the evening she was rude, to say the least. Apparently she blacklisted us because of the table incident? She was friendly to other customers that came later. We sat there a while before she came out with four chair cushions. She threw ours on our table while walking by and handed the other two to a couple that had just seated themselves behind us. They got a couple friendly words and were handed the cushions. Unbelieveable. When my husband asked if he could have salt she actual snarled. I don't care what her reason is, but this behaviour is not acceptable and I could kick myself for not moving on. As far as the menue is concerned, it explicitly states that everything from pasta to pizza is entirely home made. The pizza came out really, really fast. Much too fast for having been entirely homemade. It takes longer to knead out the dough. The couple behind us ordered pasta which arrived at their table in less than 15 minutes. I seriously doubt he made those noodles himself, but maybe he is a magician. If you go there remember not to get on her bad side!!

Stopped here for a quick bite for lunch. Quick, polite, and friendly service. We tried the pizza (amazing), but the other menu offerings looked/smelled quite tempting, as well.

Average pizzas to reasonable prices. Started outside; but before serving we was "forced" to go inside due to a tropic rainstorm. The server (and we) took all this in great spirit. Good dark draft beer.
