Reviews in Liverpool and Merseyside

After booking a table 4 weeks in advance for a big celebration we were phoned the week before and told that they could not honour our booking. The reason was they don't take large bookings on a Friday. This was after 2 phone calls and actually calling into the place to confirm. They have no customer service ability or sensibility. A lot of our party had been numerous times before but will not be returning.

After being to Tony's Italian Restaurant many times, me and my family have enjoyed the beautiful food & atmosphere, Tony & Jayne are fantastic hosts & it's the best Italian restaurant in Southport, as far as were concerned. We would not go anywhere else, the service is great and Tony & Jayne make you feel very welcome. Tony makes the best food i have tasted in Southport. I would highly recommend you to try Tony's Italian Restaurant and Pizzeria.

I recommend San Carlo if you want to (re)discover true Italian food in a nice atmosphere. We had a familiar lunch on Sunday in San Carlo and it was perfect. Italian of origin, my family likes true Italian flavours so we ordered pasta, wine and desserts. It was not extravagant, it was just what we like: authentic Italian food and quality of ingredients. The staff are very warm and most of them speak Italian which has been much appreciated by my parents, always happy to discuss things in their mother tongue.

06/07/2011 Went to Surfers last night for a meal with my sister and her boyfriend. Service was excellent as usual. We all opted for the fillet steak rossini....... fabulous! Steaks just melted in the mouth. Well done Surfers. Keep it up!! Amazes me how so many people still haven't discovered this jewel in the crown of Wirral's restaurants. Don't miss out!!

Daughter had wedding their this year. Food wasn't as good as the taster session in fact it was a let down. They didn't put out the favours as requested and mixed them up with the wedding cake. Squashed the rest of the wedding cake in inappropriate boxes though I provided the right boxes. Not professional. No one taking control. though staff can speak English it was limited. They didn't follow any of our instructions. Would not recommend it for your big day, but it might be OK for a small event where there is less chance of problems. very stressful for parents. not very organised.

Went for a meal here tonight with 5 friends. Have to say it was the best meal I have had in a long time (and I eat out A LOT!). We all chose different things to try, I had the peppered seared beef to start = amazing (and a large portion too)/ I then had linguine with king prawns, chilli and garlic with olive oil which was also equally amazing. Each one of us were surprised at the size of the meals and how gorgeous they were. HIGHLY recommend here. Many thanks to the chef - you are fab. Will be back soon,

The best Turkish restaurant in the north west by far. The food is incredible. The ambience is relaxed and the staff are really friendly - all in all a tremendous dining experience. You feel like you're in Turkey when in the restaurant ! I would recommend Elif to anyone !

Went with family (2 young children inc) friendly staff couldn't be faulted for service,food great ,beer cold perfect night

"great place to eat and meet friends" Great value and the best chips in the north give it a try you will not be disappointed.

Rude service. Obnoxious. Unappreciative. Food was cold. Avoid eating here

Tony and Jayne are great hosts. The food is superb and their wit and banter never fails to raise our spirits. Tony cooks some of the best steaks I've eaten. His duck and plaice are to die for. His Italian menu is authentic and delicious! The service makes you feel very special and Jayne always does her best to meet your every requirement. We just love going to this traditional Italian restaurant to get a great atmosphere and food cooked by a real Italian.

highly recommend best homemade pate ever and the steaks well try for yourself you wont be disappointed

I've been to tony's hundreds of times,over the years tony and Jayne have always made us welcome. friendly atmosphere,and the BEST steak ever,and the home made desserts are to die for,highly recommend,for value,and great food.

The best Indian takeaway we have had. Very highly recommended. Got it right from the outset with polite delivery, courteous letter of thanks in the bag. Food that followed was excellent - not your bog standard Indian. Food that looks as good as it tastes. Will certainly be ordering again. A+++

spent afternoon there in feb great place and company,

look, I know a thing or two about curries,after all I originated from Bradford, We called at Maharaja on 28/06/11. ordered a sheek kabab for myself, we actually shared it.by heck it was rather nice.infact it was succulent and wonderful.not deep fried as some restaurant do.the curries,a beef and chicken, well, hefty portions for a start. tasted delightful,meat well cooked and fell apart in your mouth,nans all fresh.must try the chili nan..its good..now the hygiene, excellent..,everything and everywhere especially clean and tidy, staff could not do enough to make the dinning experience a welcoming change,well worth what we paid for the meal.the beer was good as well. .enjoy..we will visit it again the next time were in L/Pool.(living in Harrogate now)
