Galata Sweets

I fell in love with Turkish coffee when I was younger and on an international assignment in the Middle East to include frequent trips to Turkey. The full bodied nature of this coffee really appeals to me where Galata's makes a very good and authentic cup of this style of coffee. Interacting with the staff of this restaurant while waiting for my coffee to brew brought back great memories of my younger years of enjoying a cup of Turkish Coffee with friends or while meeting and making new friends.Relative to my first dining experience here, I came into this business with the express purpose of trying only their deserts and coffee where I got an assortment of the sweets they had on hand which included their house made Baklava which was delicious and the star of the deserts I had. while eating the deserts I kept seeing these tempting entrees come out of their kitchen for other customers where I felt absolutely compelled (: to to try more of what this business has to offer and ended up getting a traditional Turkish Beef sandwich that was soooo tasty. Definately a good call on my part!Overall, good friendly service and tasty food are a hard combination to beat which this business meets in spades. If you like Turkish food and/or want to expose your palate to something new Than you should definately check this business out.

I really enjoyed my experience here! The ambiance transforms you from Dearborn to Istanbul when you walk in the door. The sweets are great (my cheesecake was delicious). Tried a sandwich for lunch and it was wonderful. Service is impeccable.Highly recommend

Introduced to Turkish coffee and sweets only recently. Amazed by the flavor and presentation by each pastry they have on display. Not a fan of coffee? Galata Sweets also brew tea and offer American inspired desserts like cheesecake and mousse cakes.Arrived at 7pm and the people were enjoying the music played lived by a local musician. A guy plays a flute and a female musician is playing a violin. Free entertainment.Some guests ate dinner. Their menu consists of meat and vegetarian meals. I've seen wraps, kebabs and fries on the list. For the coffee, they can brew Turkish, American and Espresso. Pair it with their sweet baklava, kanafe, cakes and cheese cakes.Love the ambiance. Baristas make the coffee fresh and also serve the meals for you. Very friendly staff. Prices reasonable. Interior of the dining area is inspired with Turkish flag, colorful lights and wood carvings.Galata is situated in corner street and the Parking is just across. Very conveniently located.Highly recommend Galata Sweets!

Stumbled upon this place looking for some good baklava while I was in Dearborn and this place did not disappoint first time having Turkish tea. It was absolutely brilliant very good. Very tasty the milky baklava never had it this way and it is absolutely phenomenal. I will definitely be back the settingto this restaurant was very peaceful. I had live music all around. Dearborn has very very nice restaurants cafés just stuff to do for everybody.

Wanted to try something I never had and the salep was described as a sweet cream. It was delicious and hot. I was taking small sips so i aassumed that the cream was on top and there was another liquid underneath. When it began to cool it started getting thick. I stuck a knife in to discover that it was all "sweet cream." After looking it up, i found that it is actually orchid flour, which explains why it became so thick after cooling. I enjoyed it, but it was too much for me to finish & the texture change after cooling wasn't to MY liking. (I'd ask for less & drink it quickly.)The baklava was just as deliciously sweet as i'd hoped.

Can't remember the names of each dish but they were all amazing and my taste buds enjoyed the new burst of flavors. The cheese cake was perfect. Creamy and not overly sweet. The Turkish decor was breathtaking and I felt like I was traveling to Turkey. I will be going back very soon

First time here and I will definitely be back! The TURKISH COFFEE here is so bold and full of flavor! There's so many different shapes, layers and textures of baklavas I had a hard time choosing even just three! And they were delightful! The service and staff were very welcoming and informative especially it being my first time here I pretty much got the hang of know what I was ordering and what were the base ingredients. They have live music and the colors, furniture, decor are all so nice to look at. I HADDD to snap some photos of the light fixtures. Definitely recommend trying some sweets and dining in.

As someone who was just visiting Michigan for the weekend, I never would have expected to encounter such an authentic Turkish place in Dearborn! But alas, here it was! When you step in, you immediately know it is authentic based on all the Turkish decor around and the delicious food with unique presentation.Menemen ($17.95 + $4.95 for sucuk) - This is like a Turkish version of a classic breakfast platter, with eggs, tomato, and onions in a plate covered with melted cheese. The sucuk (Turkish sausage) was a good addition to have some meat in there. This is a delicious breakfast option.Gozleme spinach/cheese ($6.95) - These are like little crispy fried pancakes with spinach/cheese inside. A tasty pastry-type breakfast or snack.Sütlaç ($7.95) - This is a delicious Turkish rice pudding. Not overly sweet and has a nice creamy consistency.Ayran cup ($5.95) - This Turkish yogurt drink was basically salted yogurt. Kind of an interesting flavor for those not accustomed to it, but not bad at all.Turkish coffee ($4.95 for 12 oz) - If you are a coffee fan, this is a must try, not just for the flavor but also the unique and authentic presentation. They bring the coffee with these cute intricately designed Turkish cups and a coffee pot (if you choose to get a pot). The coffee is quite strong so they also serve them with little cube-shaped sweet Turkish delights, which taste like a combo of chocolate ganache and marshmallow layers. As mentioned, the environment really sets this place apart, as it really feels like a Turkish bakery/restaurant with Turkish designs all around, including the famous mosaic hanging lighting overhead. They are also playing Turkish music. The staff are friendly and the service speed is quick. It was pretty busy on a weekend morning, but we were able to get a table with no issues.Overall, if you are looking for a breakfast/brunch/snack/dessert in Dearborn and interested in an authentic Turkish experience, then I would highly recommend you visit Galata.

Been here a couple times for coffee but just tried breakfast on my most recent visit, and I'm sad I didn't try it sooner. I ordered the cheese pide and I added an egg, bastirma, and veggies to it. My only complaint would be that I thought the egg would be on the runny side, as it looked on their online menu, but it came out fully cooked like the other toppings - still it was very flavorful and I loved it. My friend ordered the Lebanese Fateh and although she said it could have used more garlic flavor, she still really enjoyed it. Very cute decor as well, and workers are all so sweet.

Love this place!! My friend and I wanted to try some Turkish sweets and picked a few Turkish delight flavors to try ($19/lb). The owners were so kind and gave us tea on the house! The candies and tea were all amazing!
