Quick info
About Gallipoli Restaurant
Gallipoli Restaurant is a Turkish restaurant on Upper St in London, with memorabilia covering the walls and ceiling and mirrors used throughout as decor. The kitchen serves meze as a sharing selection alongside chargrills, and vegetarian options and a halal menu are available. Seating extends outdoors to a glass-roofed section and a shaded area, with tables arranged for larger groups of ten to twelve or more. A big screen shows televised football matches. The restaurant takes walk-ins rather than reservations. Toilets are located downstairs, next to the kitchen.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often return to the Turkish food itself, calling it delicious and describing a selection of meze, with big portions that several call reasonably priced. Group bookings come up repeatedly: a party of 12 was seated comfortably, and a lunchtime group of 10 or more was moved to a shady outdoor table and had leftovers boxed up to take away. The outdoor seating and the glass roofed area both earn praise, along with friendly, welcoming staff and interesting decoration, with mirrors mentioned by one diner. Vegetarian options and a halal menu are also noted. The main caveat is service speed at busy times. One reviewer found it difficult to get staff attention during busy hours, and another described service as slow on a Saturday night. One diner who watched the UCL Final on the big screen found the room slightly crowded and the screen a bit unclear, though they appreciated staff making space for football fans. One reviewer also mentions poor lighting in the downstairs toilet cubicle, next to the kitchen.

“It’s my place which I very like and I wasn’t disappointed once and I visit it more than hundreds times. It makes me smile always, my stomach happy, people are polite, they taking care about you not only when you placing order or paying bill. Go and check by yourself!!!!”

“Gallipoli is without a doubt one of the best Turkish restaurants in London. The food is delicious, authentic, and made with fresh, high-quality ingredients. The restaurant is spotless, the atmosphere is warm and inviting, and the staff are incredibly friendly, attentive, and professional. What impressed me most was their genuine Turkish hospitality, which made the whole experience even more special. Highly recommended—I will definitely be back!”

“A large group of us went at lunchtime (10+ people). They moved our table outdoors, into a lovely shady area (it was a beautiful, hot day). Service was great and the food was delicious. Portions were big for lunch (as well as reasonably priced) and they boxed up the leftovers for us to takeaway. Looking forward to going back :)”

“Lovely Turkish food, nice decor and staff were friendly. The only negative was that they were a bit busy on a Saturday night and service was slow.”

“Great spot to watch the UCL Final with plenty of seating and a big screen, although the screen quality could’ve been a bit clearer. The food was really good, but the restaurant tried to fit in a lot of people, so it felt slightly crowded at times. Still, really appreciate the staff for making space for football fans who wanted to enjoy the final atmosphere.”
