Reviews in Liverpool and Merseyside

It was extremely busy but the staff coped magnificently... food was excellent... apologised for wait as so busy but well worth the wait. So much so my husband went to the pass and thanked the chefs for the fabulous food. We will visit a gain very soon

Been here a number of times now. Celebrating our daughters and sons bdays. Food was excellent and staff were a joy. Recommend highly

Outstanding as always. Visited with a friend and we had the lunch deal. The restaurant was clean and welcoming, it was very busy but it's expected, with the food being so delicious. The food portions are generous and the service was pleasant (we were served by a waitress who I've seen many times before and she's always lovely). I have two favourite restaurants in Liverpool, and Elif is one of them. Keep up the remarkable work.

Loved! Food was great, definitely got what we paid for and the staff were so friendly, couldn’t do enough for us.

Foos as always was superb. I started with the chilli chicken which were marinated slices of chicken, lightly deep fried with a Thai Scirracha Chilli Sauce. Plenty of chicken, but maybe a little more sauce, but I was very tasty. Main meal was crispy pork belly chilli pad noodles. It certainly had a kick to it and the but size pieces of belly pork were superb. Very crispy and moist, perfectly cooked. I did leave some and the offer to take the rest away was tempting, I am regretting the decision not to today. Service was attentive and really good too.

Food delicious as always. Amazing staff. This restaurant never disappoints .

We booked a family meal at Elif on Saturday, and enjoyed some really delicious food. There was a wide range of dishes to choose from, it was all freshly cooked and full of flavour. Although it was busy, the staff were attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. We'll definitely plan to visit Elif again, there are more dishes we want to try!

The bistro is small but not claustrophobic. There is a real sense of family (in the figurative and literal way) among the staff. Me and my partner are vegan and the staff were able to advise what dishes could be made to a vegan recipe, very helpful indeed. The food is the best for a good few miles around and took me back to being in Thailand with the authenticity. I'd eat here every night if I could!

Amazing service from staff and clean and food was great too.

Food was great, service started out great but then after mains were delivered, one onto the table, we had to go and get service for cutlery for mains and the to order desserts and to get the bill. A little slow but the food was lovely x

Excellent food and service. We will definitely be returning!

Often walked passed and usually a queue. Pre booked (makes life easier. Friendly atmosphere on entering. Placed order, service was quick and friendly. Meals are a generous size. Our meal was enjoyable. Not over spiced or over smoky as it’s bbq style. Would recommend and will visit again.

Fabulous food. Great value.

Went here for lunch with a friend. Ordered humus starter accompanied by the most delicious bread. A meal in itself. Followed by lamb kebab with rice and salad. The lamb was succulent and tender. The rice creamy and nutty. Absolutely delicious. Love this place. Have been here several times and even though I say I won't I always order the same. I don't know how they serve such yummy food for such good prices. Highly recommended. Superb.

Had steak fajitas usually nice but hardly Any in it always go will need to try someone else

Delicious food with excellent service. Everyone should eat here! Authentic Mexican food and amazing value for money, we live quite a way away so don't manage to get there as often as we would like. Yummy!

Never been before but recommended by friends . Booked online for a table for four of us for a handy meal and drink before visiting the Empire which is around the corner . Buzzing traditional pub with lots of character and food was excellent. We had a couple of pizzas and scouse . Would go back as it added to a great evening out .
