    We selected this restaurant due to the high ratings on Google Maps. The staff was very friendly, and we were promptly served a glass of water. In comparison to the nearby restaurants, this one was fairly empty. A basket of bread and a small bowl of olive oil were given as a complimentary starter while we waited for our meal. The salad we ordered arrived swiftly, although the flavor didn't meet our expectations. The main dishes followed: both visually pleasing. The casserole baked fish had a satisfying taste. At first, the beef steak was delightful, however, it was dry towards the middle. One highlight of our visit was the captivating location and view offered by this restaurant. From there, you can observe the ferries and even spot some landmarks. Upon finishing the main dishes, we were each served a cup of chai and a piece of baklava. Both were exceptional. The final bill was approximately 1150 TL, equivalent to around 30€. We left a tip, satisfied with the service. I don't typically write reviews, but I felt compelled to share my experience. Feeling full, we returned to our hotel to rest. Unfortunately, two hours later, I felt exceedingly full and slightly ill. Initially, I thought I needed the restroom, but this wasn’t the issue. Half an hour later, I vomited and began to feel better. My suspicion is the meat may have been off, as my partner had no complaints, and we hadn't consumed anything else. This discrepancy with the glowing reviews made me skeptical. Upon delving into the negative reviews, I discovered allegations of reheated fish being served and offers of discounts in return for positive reviews. These findings suggest a possible reason for the disparity between the excellent reviews and the less-than-stellar experience we had. In light of this experience, and for the sake of future patrons, I regret to say that I cannot recommend this restaurant. The risk of food-related illness seems too high a price to pay, despite the pleasant service and ambiance.

    Incredible restaurant with gorgeous views. Had the lentil soup and roasted veg with the prawns and eggplants. Highly recommend! Staff were so lovely as well and service top notch.

    I don't want to judge solely based on one visit, but this place is really overrated for me. While the grilled fish was really good, the starters we ordered, especially the calamari, were far from satisfactory. I hate to say it, but we were disappointed with our experience. However, I will give it 3 stars because of the quality of the grilled fish. Additionally, I found the service to be okay, and the staff were friendly. On the downside, the ambiance wasn't that nice, which further impacted our overall impression of the place. The view was good but the restaurant is located under the bridge

    The food is really overpriced. The starters were good, the main dishes not really. The shrmips were overcoocked and oily as well as the calamari. The fish and chips dish was fine. The service was really great but didn't save our meal. Overall, it felt a bit like a tourist trap.

    Shocked at the ratings it has. Greek salad, no feta. The whole fish, they say it’s grilled, no, it’s fried. The views are spectacular. The French fries are delicious. Service was good. Food 2/5.

    Grilled calamari was delicious, so tender and just enough seasoning. Highly recommend. Iskander was the best waiter, very attentive and he took care of our sea bass for us. Sea bass was totally overcooked but great presentation. Bread, spread, glass of champagne, baklava and tea ALL complimentary on the house. They ask you at the end to leave a google review, and they fill out the 5 stars 😆 hence all the great reviews.

    For the price they ask at this place, the food could have been better. For example, Greek Salad should have Feta Cheese, not regular one. And in the salad, they also use marinaded olives instead of fresh ones. I also had Salmon with sauce, and it was okay, nothing special. Same with Calmari, the produce itself was of good quality - it is that cooking that downgraded the experience. The service was good. The atmosphere here is fantastic, however. You will get one of the best views of the city. Overall, if only the cooking was better, then it would have been a higher rating. Alternatively, if they dropped the prices to match the quality of cooking - they would have higher.

    Excellent restaurant on Galata Bridge. We looked at menus for other restaurants while walking across the bridge - Beyaz Inci stood out over the others. Beautiful interior with nicer views over the river as it's a little closer to the centre of the bridge. The staff were friendly and welcoming, excellent service, the food is flavourful, fresh and well presented. More family-orientated than other restaurants on the bridge.
