Eureka

Eureka might not be the easiest restaurant to find in Liverpool, but it’s well worth seeking out. A couple of minutes walk from the Philharmonic Hall, it serves up traditional Greek cuisine in relaxed surroundings. Owner-chef George has 30 years of experience behind him and is always around to give you a warm welcome (some nights he sings, too). You’ll find all the Greek classics here along with a strong vegetarian selection and this place is popular with the vegetarian community. There’s also fresh fish on the menu every day. Although Eureka has a choice of wines and Greek and Cypriot beer, a big attraction is the fact that you can bring your own wine and avoid those restaurant mark-ups (there’s just a £2.50pp corkage charge). ...Click here for Eureka website

Romios Restaurant

Romios Restaurant

You’ll find this intimate family-run Greek taverna on fashionable Lark Lane. It’s been run by chef-patron Michael Samata since 1989, although there has been a restaurant here since the 1970s. Like the owner, Romios is Greek Cypriot, which means you’ll find all the Greek favourites but served with a Cypriot twist (the secret’s in the seasoning). As is in all Greek restaurants the Mezedes (Greek banquet) is popular and in Romios it consists of 15 courses of hot and cold starters and charcoal-grilled meats. Another favourite is the classic kleftiko (lamb on the bone). The Romios wine list offers Greek and Cypriot wines in addition to a selection from the better-known wine growing countries. They also serve Greek beer – Mythos and KEO. The restaurant is compact, with a bar and an open kitchen at the far end. Upstairs is a private function room. In summer, it’s a great place to grab a bite after a visit to Sefton Park. ...Click here for Romios Restaurant website

Located just of the promenade at West Kirby, Scogs restaurant and bar has been a local favourite for the last 13 years.

A recent refurb has given the venue an airy continental feel and the contemporary décor is vibrant pink, bitter chocolate and lime green with pop art pictures of Sophia Loren on the walls. Even the swanky loos are worth a peek. Outside heated canopies encourage al fresco dining and there is a new bar area where you can enjoy everything from a quick coffee to a three-course meal. ...Click here for Scogs website
