I’ve been there a few times over the years and I always walk away with a satisfied smile, warm heart and a full belly. The food is always good, service is top notch (Italians are certainly known for their hospitality) and the knowledge of the sommelier - always spot on :) A wonderful place tucked away in suburbia..definable come here to have your heart and belly full :)

Galileo has remained one of my favourite restaurants in Perth for several years now. Food and service have always been impeccable. A post ‘virus-shut-down’ visit for dinner found a once extensive menu sadly (but understandably) reduced down to a single page of entrees, mains and desserts. The option was to choose either 2 or 3 courses and we opted for the 3. Entrees we ordered included conchiglioni pasta shells (good), funghi trifolati (ok) and pansotti pasta with walnut sauce (a touch bland, perhaps just lacking salt). For main course we moved onto the slow baked lamb (the main reason I would love to dine here as it has always been sensational, this time round it was still good but not the same level it has been in the past), and the beef cheeks (good). Mains were served with a small side salad and roasted potatoes. Finished with the profiteroles (nice) and the semifreddo (very nice). Service was polite but a bit distracted on this particular night - in the past it has been nothing short of excellent. When I dine out I'm paying for the experience, not just the food and Galileo's has consistently given me an excellent one each time I have been here. Given time I’m sure things will get back to normal with this great restaurant.
Delicious food and quality service, doesn't really cater for young kids but a first rate dining experience
Absolutely sensational. My wife and I have dined at Galileo's for many years now and I can honestly say hand on heart, Vince is without a doubt the best Italian chef we have ever come across.Truly world class in skills and presentation. In all the years we have never had just an "ok" meal served by him. Each time we dine there the service and quality is always a 5 star experience. We were there for dinner on Sat 24th and were surprised to see a few change's in the menu. WOW, what a meal, what a night.The entrees, mains & deserts were truly outstanding ,and it goes without saying an absolute credit to his culinary skills. Aldo's choice of the perfect Italian red to accompany my veal could not have been better and he never fails.
We really look forward to booking another night very soon. Again, thanks Vince and staff for yet another "Michelin" experience.

Dined with my hubby on Saturday night. Beatiful restaurant. Classic Atmosphere. Great great great cuisines. Friendly and polite staffs. Reasonable price. I heard this restaurant is good but much beyond my expectations! We ordered Bruchetta (starter), Marinated fish (entree), Dried beef (entree), Prawn Pasta (entree) and Wood fired lamb (Main). Tiramisu for dessert, too. All dishes were supre amazing. Especially, my favorites were Bruchetta, Prawn Pasta and Tiramisu!!! We were also surprised their good price, our total amount was only $158.40 (dishes + 4 glasses of wines). We would love to be back again and can't wait for trying other menus! Definitely this is one of the BEST Italian restaurants in Perth.
We decided to try this restaurant as we found it accidentally. Very authentic Italian and excellent food, excellent service and good for money. We will come back here soon :)
An absolutely fantastic restaurant. Value for money, great service, and, conveniently for me, just around the corner. Will definitely return soon.

Went here last night for my birthday meal. I was worried it would be quiet with it being a Tuesday evening, but I was pleased to see it was full as they had closed off another room, presumably this gets opened up during the busier times of the week. We ordered the entree size gnocchi and pork rigatoni special- the rigatoni was out of this world. Gnocchi was a little too salty, but this was my only complaint of the whole night. Next we had the beef fillet special, which was seriously melt in your mouth tender, and the beef ribs. The ribs were a very generous portion with plenty of delicious rich sauce and mushrooms. We also had the pea and pancetta side which complimented both dishes well. I honestly don’t have anything bad to say about the mains! Desert was the Bonet, which was light and not too sweet. A perfect end to an almost perfect meal. The wine list is extensive, and they offer half bottles too which is fantastic. Service was polite and attentive. Prices are what you expect for the quality of food, but not stupid. You can eat far less quality food for far more money in Perth. Can’t wait to come back to this place!
Galileo is so very, very good. The food is absolute perfection and takes delicious to a whole new level. The restaurant exudes confidence, quality and finesse. I love how the vegetables and side dishes are not an afterthought, but a special menu feature. The gluten-free bread was divine! The atmosphere and service brings authenticity and a special vibe, yet the prices are very reasonable. Dining out does not get better than this. Sensational in every way.
absolutely amazing experience. food was just melt in the mouth.. best meal i have had by far in perth.. and possibly overall (that being said as someone well travelled). had some bread to start, perfect. my main was the fish which was just cooked to perfection. my partner got the lamb and said it was also the best he had ever had. Overall menu was accommodating to my pickiness (I requested vegetables instead of the mash potato) and service was very pleasant. wine menu is just a whole new level to be an experience on its own. I also got a port dessert wine, it was perfect to finish off the evening. ambience was great.. busy but not overwhleming, quitened down after a while which was nice. cant say any more praise. definitely recommend 100% for quality, affordability and for customer service, that was awesome to say the least! thank you for one of the best meals and nights I have ever been able to share with friends.
11/10 - This restaurant is so underrated it hurts. Delicious and refined dishes, thoughtful, knowledgeable and unpretentious service, generous portions, pleasant sophisticated atmosphere, reasonably priced, superb winelist. We will definitely be back to try more of the menu!
Very reasonably priced quality fare that was served very well by competent front of house staff. Quite a limited fixed price menu but all the dishes we shared were well presented and very tasty. Sharing of the quite generous servings was done in the kitchen once we let our waiter know that this was our intention, so it made this a very pleasant experience. A great extra service. The wine list was vast, the red we chose was very good even though it was in the lowest quartile on the cost curve.
The venue was quiet comfortable and elegant albeit slightly tired.
One of my favorite places!
I would like to highlight the waitress named Eda, who is very attentive, professional and friendly. If all restaurants had customer service like hers, it would be perfect! I went to the restaurant on Wednesday the 20th to celebrate my birthday with my husband and everything was wonderful!
We really wanted to eat the gnocchi pesto and we went there thinking about it, but it was already sold out when we got there, well we'll have to go back soon then.
Overall, amazing food and excellent cocktail and wines!
Thanks to the whole team!
It is rare to go to a restaurant several times over a few years and get an amazingly good experience. It is even more rare that I can describe a night out at a restaurant as perfect. Tonight was one such night. Special thanks to Fernando for his excellent service and the kitchen staff for making the most delicious 4 course meal. 6 stars. Will be back.
Having dined here several times I am compelled to say that Galileo Buona Cucina provides the finest dining experience possible. The service is elegant, attentive and experienced. As for the food there is delicious and there is the standard of this restaurant. The bread is fresh, and the roast potatoes are astonishingly good. The mains; the flavour selection, the seasoning, the portion sizing all faultless for the duck, beef and lamb. Extensive and thoughtful wine list. Try this place and be delighted.
Probably the best meal I've had in Perth. Perfectly prepared & presented food, spectacular wine list & outstanding service. Very aware & accommodating of my requirements as a coeliac. An absolutely beautiful setting. A gem of which Perth can be proud

Recommended by a friend and it was excellent!
Staff were really friendly from when you first walk in. The food smelled amazing as you walk through the door.
The waitress was really patient at explaining the menu to us and how the ordering worked (2 course for $60 and $70 for 3 courses). She told us we could decide later on if we wanted dessert so we didn't feel pressured to decide there and then.
Bread was delicious. Nice and warm and plenty to share.
We had the pasta tubes with fish and veal meatballs for entrees. Meatballs were tender, pasta was really tasty.
Mains were fish and lamb with sides of carrots and potatoes. The fish was really fresh and not overcooked. The lamb was so tender you didn't need a knife. Reminded you of a hearty home cooked meal. Carrots were cooked just right so they weren't soft but still crunchy.
Dessert was tiramisu which was devine! Just the best was to top it off!
Throughout the night staff came around to make sure we were alright and they were all just lovely. Fernando who I think was the restaurant manager came by to have a chat as well. You could feel the genuine love he has for the restaurant, food and customers. We have him some feedback and he acted on it immediately.
Overall, a hidden gem that's just great hearty soul cooked food with a relaxed atmosphere. Great date night spot.
We fall in love of this place, from the service , the decoration to the menu!
We came to this restaurant for our 4 years anniversary and didn't reserved, but they find us a table in 2min.
The service was excellent and the waiter really nice friendly and extremely professional! I am allergic to carrot so they made me a new ragout without the carrots, its the first time i am going to a restaurant and agree to change it for me.
The food its delicious and the plate are correctly full. we really enjoyed and they made our night memorable.
The quality of the service and food are for sure matching the price you pay.
Definitely recommend this restaurant .
