Reviews in Liverpool and Merseyside

Love Shantii, Food is great, Ali an staff are certainly friendly and give good advice, we regularly eat there an cant wait for our Christmas meal there, went last Christmas an was so impressed we booked again for this year. We believe last New Year was great with a singer, so have also booked for that. Looking forward to a festive Christmas period with all at Shantii. Thanks Ali , Best Wishes Norma, Vin, Steph an Ladies xx

Have visited this restaurant on many occasions, and have always been impressed with the quality of the food. There is a nice ambiance, the owner(who is almost always in attendance) and his staff are very attentive and friendly.We are particularly impressed with the way they deal with the special dietary requirements for two of our usual party who are stricken with multiple food allergies. A visit here is always an enjoyable experience.

I had always thought this very pretty looking shop- was a childrens cake shop.... But then my friend asked me to meet her there for lunch- I never knew it was a cafe/coffee shop!it is a gem of a place with the most divine fresh and affordable food I have ever come across. I really don't know how they provide that level of excellence for those prices.The ladies who own /work there are lovely, and the food they produce cannot be faulted. Even a simple Ham and Cheese Toastie(only £2.95) was elevated to star status in my mouth- quality ham that you just don't usually get these days.I have been back several times and the soup is incredible-with the freshest bread, I feel like I have gone to food heaven in this place!They have marvellous little things for children and make you really welcome. The cakes are yummy- and with 24 hours notice- the ladies will make speciality/restricted diet products for you.TOP cafe, long may it last

Newly opened restaurant. Went in for lunch. I had octopus salad and my friend had a seafood pizza. Both were outstanding, the pizza was loaded with muscles, squid, octopus and prawns. Cheap at about seven pounds each. Highly recommended!

I would definitely reccomend this restaurant. i have been several times and never disappointed. service, food and atmosphere all superb.

fabulous food, the crab roti and the butter chicken main are out of this world, fabulous staff who catered to my every need. Thanks karma for making my Friday night

Stunning interior design and staff pleasant and welcoming. Food was top drawer could'nt fault the pumpkin soup and the steak melted in the mouth visiting again in 2 weeks

Had few meals here. excellent. one of the best Indians in Merseyside.

When living in Liverpool in 1993 I visited the Lobster Pot frequently and I'm glad they are still going because I plan on visiting them when back in the UK (from Australia) in a couple of years. Best chips I've ever had!!

Always going to for an amazing meal at the bakers dozen its just as great if your only going for a drink! Friendly and very helpful staff, amazing food and great prices! Definitely recomend!!

Asked 2 change a main meal on the set meal,they said they can't,sorry but in my book that's pathetic,won't be going back. Fuck u. Risa

We had our engagement party at harbour bar, and it was an absolute letdown. The staff were really helpful and polite initially, but our party was ruined when after ten o'clock the bar started letting in the general public to what we thought was a private party. We had random people coming in and eating our food, trying to steal our balloons and decorations and requesting music from the DJ that we had paid for. I had a word with the bar man about it and his attitude was really unacceptable, he pretty much said the room rental was free, what do you expect? I was really shocked that they would do this after taking a booking from us for a private party. Nobody mentioned this when we booked and left a deposit, if they had we would have gone somewhere else. The reason we booked harbour bar is because its a lovely space and was close to the train station, we would probably have paid for room rental of this had been brought up before the party at some point. This was our engagement party and it was such a disappointment after all of our family came feom all over the country to see us, something that both the bouncer and bar man didn't seem to understand. They were condescending to be honest. We were both really upset by this and wont be looking back at our engagement party with the right kind of memories. Needless to say we wont be having another party here, really could not recommend.

First visit here as we were in Liverpool for an event at the Metropolitan Cathedral. Absolutely superb 3 course lunch with lots of choice - real value for money and impeccable service. the decor is quirky and creates a great atmosphere. Highly recommended.

Like Kamran Khan, last night was our first and last visit. We had to wait an eternity for our drinks to arrive, buffet non-descript, we had to queue up and wait for more food to be brought from the kitchens, only one vegetarian choice on offer, waited twenty minutes for our bill which was £47.00 odd (for two people) - which consisted of starters, main course, an orange juice and a glass of red wine. In my opinion the buffett was worth about £6.00. Would not recommend it.

We booked a table at this restaurant for myself, my husband and another couple. Our waiter was pleasant but informed us that they had no more bottles of Pinot Grigio. We then asked if he could sell us the Chablis (£5 more expensive than the Pinot) for a cheaper price as that was my other favourite as well as the Pinot they had ran out if. He asked the miserable faced manager. and his answer was no. We thought he could have been a little more apologetic or at least offer an alternative. When the food arrived, it was generally very nice except for one of the side dishes of Bombay potatoes which was served to the table, stone cold. The dish was hot, but the potatoes were not. The general lack of friendliness and customer service has tainted the night for me and I wouldn't rush back there. Such simple things, what a shame.

went here on a saturday day night expecting turkish food eg simple turkish chill sauce and there was none insight was told by the waiter people in liverpool don't like it , i feel so sorry for people in liverpool because i feel there getting a raw deal when it comes to eating out , this place is more like a kebab shop , if you really want to get something close to the real thing try a place i found in widnes called efe's and not this rip off place elif as you can see the names nearly the same as the REAL ONE IN LIVERPOOL EFE'S

I truly enjoyed my evening at the Italian club fish. It was comfortable , relaxing with great service and the food was superb! Looking forward to my next visit where I will be bringing more family & friends .

Food was lovely but customer service was very poor. Our order was incomplete one meal however we had the rice from that meal. They agreed to rush it out to us. Then shortly after we were rung back demanding us to pay for the meal. In the end we refused as one of our party had no food and I don't see why we should pay for there mistake. Very disappointed we've used them frequently but won't again after their attitude. Greatly inconvenienced.
