Based on recent customer reviews, Galito's is facing significant customer experience challenges across multiple branches. Customers consistently mention rude and unhelpful staff, long waiting times, and incorrect or incomplete orders. A recurring theme is dissatisfaction with food quality, including undercooked chicken, small portion sizes, and poorly seasoned meals. Delivery and refund issues also draw frequent complaints, with customers expressing frustration over unresponsive head office communication. On a positive note, a smaller group of patrons highlight well-seasoned hot chicken, friendly staff at select branches, and commendable service recovery from certain managers.

Roodepoort branch Bought 3-piece chicken and chips and double chicken roll and chips both portions the chips was raw as well as the chicken, he rolls there was hardly any chicken on the roll it was soggy both these meals cost R79.99 and I don't think it was worth it. I'm so disgusted with what I received today and don't think I can ever support you again

I called in @ Galitos Standerton branch on Friday around 19:00 & spoke to a very very rude gentleman who refused to give his name only when I had said I will report his poor customer service that when he told me he is Simon. I placed an order for a family feast which I wanted cut in 4 he called in @ 19:12 re confirming my order but when I came to pick up around 20:02 my order was not made after receiving terrible & poor customer service I was even more irritated at the fact that my order was not placed despite this guy calling me to re-confirm the order he had the nerve of not putting my order through. I have the recording of the entire call . My order was then rushed only to find when I got home the meat was dry as a desert no basting on the meat but yet I clearly stated I wanted 1x meduim & 1 x lemon & herb & worst of all it was cut in 8

Today I went to Galito's at 80 Charlotte Maxeke Street in Bloemfontein to buy 7 winglets with chips, while I was eating i realized that they only gave me 4 wings, which means I should have checked them before leaving.

I bought chicken livers and rice meal, at Galito's in Boksburg The Square, WOW and what a let down it was. I mean the livers were just boiled in water and added to a gravy, no seasoning, flavour or even a sight that they were at least fried just pale, anaemic looking livers. My 14 year old can cook better than that. Even Fast food places must have some kind of standard, what i ate was just something else.
