    We love this restaurant- lovely food, great value and first class attention and service. On warmer days, alfresco by the Thames would be perfect. Thanks

    Chargrilled meat skewers, likely lamb or beef, served with fluffy white rice and a fresh salad of mixed greens, shredded carrots, and sliced vegetables.
    Chargrilled ribs with a caramelized exterior, served with fluffy rice and a fresh salad of mixed greens and shredded vegetables.
    Chargrilled chicken skewers with a golden-brown exterior, served with fresh cucumber slices and a side of crispy French fries.

    We had dinner there last night. 3 adults and 2 children. The staff were wonderful with the children and very attentive. The look of inside was special and children loved watching their meats to be cooked on the fire in front of them. Food was outstanding. Definitely recommend.

    We had a great evening at Galaxy Pera. The warm welcome, the food and the service were superb, a real tonic for two weary travellers. Superb choices for a vegetarian - I really enjoyed my meal, a rare treat for me, and enjoyed the Turkish house red too. I would highly recommend it - a truly rare thing for me!

    An assortment of well-seasoned grilled meats, including kebabs and tender lamb chops, served with grilled vegetables like chargrilled tomatoes and bell peppers, garnished with fresh herbs.

    Wonderful service and ambience,they did some improvements and refurbished compared to when i was there 2 years ago last time . Portions were good and the food very delicious. Can say the best Turkish restaurant around here,and I've been to many.Major improvement from last time,when the lighting was a bit dim and food not that great. Definitely going back soon.

    We had a really lovely evening at Galata Pera. The food was absolutely delicious - I can’t stop thinking about the calamari and lamb chops. The service was spot on and the restaurant is in a great spot by the river. All in all a perfect evening. I just wish I lived closer so I could keep going back!
