Meet Vince Galati

Vince Galati, the founder of Galati’s, grew up in Norridge, Illinois. At 18 he moved to Oshkosh, Wisconsin, to work side by side with his uncle, who owned and ran a local restaurant. A year and a half later he came home with the knowledge and experience to start his own business.

Vince’s first pizza place was Varro’s Pizza, at Knollwood and Bode Roads in Schaumburg, which he ran until 1994. In Cary he opened Pizza Junction, which he later rebranded as Galati’s, and Galati’s has been serving Cary since 1992. From 1998 until November 2014, Galati’s served Cary from Spring Street.

In 2014 Vince opened Galati’s Hideaway at 800 Feinberg Court, adding a larger dining room and bar plus upstairs banquet and party rooms. We’ve been here ever since.

Kind words from our guests

I brought in a group of 20, and it was handled flawlessly. We were given the back room area for some privacy.

We have had many family events here and Vince and his staff have always gone above and beyond to make it special.

We celebrated my son’s graduation in the skybox, party of 12. Vince and his crew treated us great. Personal service with great food, I would highly recommend.

Their soups are wonderful and the bread basket divine.
