Reviews in Liverpool and Merseyside

I have not ate in this restaurant but after the take away we got on 23.2.08 I would not want too.I ordered special chow main,mussels in black bean sauce,ribs,egg fried rice and shui mai came to £25.50.The chow main came in 2 dishes (strange),1 dish with noodles and the other with all different chunks meats in a gravy.It was foul, all the meat was fatty and it was as if it was just chucked in, I have never had a chow main like that b4. The rice was all mashed 2gether an looked like mash potatoes. the only good thing was the prawn crackers!

This Restaurant is one of the best in Liverpool it has lovely food cooked to perfection and also has very nice staff i would recommend you to come to this restaurant. Or you could just order a takeaway.

This Restaurant came highly recommended and the reviews on this site confirm it's excellent reputation. Imagine my disappointment and horror, therefore, when I was not allowed in as I am blind and use a guide dog for mobility purposes!!!! This Restaurant have acted illegally under part III of the Disability Discrimination Act (1995-2005) and further action will be taken.

I would not recommend Nicola's restaurant. Myself and family dined there on Sat 23rd Feb. We found the food poor, the service poor and the staff really rude. It started off with our party being served their meals, my meal didn't arrive and nither did my friends. Our waiter said not to worry he would be back with ours in 5 mins, we were still without food 25-30 mins later. My friends food then turned up in dribs and drabs mine was no where to be seen. Five mins later out came mine, i'd ordered a kebab it came on a large scewer and I had trouble getting the meat off. I finally managed it in the process burning my hand on the metal scewer. By this point I wasn't hungry anymore just really angry, I never ate my food and asked the waiter to remove it as everyone else had ate theirs. He then came back at me with a really bad attitude arguing with me in the restaurant, he said ''I told you yours would be late''. I don't expect as a paying customer to be spoken to like that in a restaurant, I told him that he had an awful attitude and he left the table saying ''la la la la''. I strongly recommend not going to this restaurant as there are so many others in the Waterloo area that are so much better.

We have just enjoyed a delicious takeaway from Cafe Sekander and we would like to recommend this restaurant. Lovely, delicious and tasty curries and naan breads. Takeaway tastes as good as when you eat in and there is plenty in two meals for three people. Definitely worth a try.

Fantastic Restaurant! Very High Profile

One of the best restaurants in Liverpool, the views are breathtaking!! It is expensive but it is worth it, would definitely recommend to everyone.

I found the service at lunchtime very poor, one hassled looking waiter serving between lunch & dinner periods. The food was decidedly average.

My friend dad works there and it was lovely i went there a while back for jays ( the waiter ) 21st birthday and it was lovely! Hope to go there again soon! Hello daz n jay xx

I was recommended this restaurant by a taxi driver. But was a little disappointed. The meal was quite bland, there was not much meat in it but it was smothered in sauce which I didn't like too much. Maybe it was an off night but I don't think I'll try it again.

We have eaten at pioneer a few times since it opened and generally been pleased ,we also ate really good tapas in the bar .We also found the food very fresh and not too expensive .However the staff and manager are not too knowledgeable about the food there serving .The waitress was sweet and tried to please even if the manager lacked interest and knowledge about what he was selling

Was really looking forward to the meal as my partner and i had heard such good things about Savina. Unfortunately it did not come up to expectations. My partner had The Sea Bass that had to be was sent back as it was cold and the veg was over cooked to the point of soggy. I had Stuffed Chicken Breast that was dry and overcooked. The ambiance of the restaurant is good but the food does not match it.

I love this restaurant its a great atmosphere the staff are friendly and polite and the discount is amazing. I recommend this restaurant to everyone families and couples.

This restaurant is not only one of the best in Southport but equally as good as any London restaurant I have been to. I've eaten in some top places in London:- Oxo Tower, Smiths of Smithfield, Fifteen and Mezzo, places where a meal for two with drinks will typically set you back about £150 upwards. I make no exaggeration when I say that Cloisters is one of the best I've been to in terms of the quality of food, the choice and the personal service. A superb good quality menu and a formal setting and service yet relaxed atmosphere. I had such a fantastic meal recently accompanied by my wife and two friends, when the bill arrived I was absolutely convinced we'd been under charged. The only one thing they could improve on would be to stay open later, maybe thats a cultural thing, in London people tend to go for dinner about Eight onwards whereas here it seems many people want to be all done by seven.

Everything was served very well presented & the quality of the food was fantastic & couldn't be faulted. I tried murga kofta - a dish of minced chicken meatballs which was delicious! Check out their website for a menu list there's plenty of choice Would go again without hesitation

had a valentines day meal here again. service and food second to none, from the canopies to the desert. can't wait to see what the monro will be like, when it gets refurbished.

In general, Bella Italia seems a perfectly good chain restaurant. But, having recently had a meal at the Liverpool branch, I find myself asking whether they wish to be Italian to the core, or just another faux Italian. From a sampling from the menu, it finds itself in the faux camp. One of the starter dishes includes bruschetta alongside buffalo wings, and of course there are the seemingly indispensable 'fries' with half the menu. On the other hand the decor and atmosphere lends itself to a more Italian style. The low lighting, candles in chianti bottles and the shouts of graci and ciao in the background all lend itself to a pleasant setting. Unfortunately this is let down with most of the waiting staff having broad local accents, making communication difficult. There is little wrong in Britain with faux Italian restaurants, shown by the success of Pizza Express and ASK. Neither is there anything wrong with a franchised business of traditional Italian restaurants. But Bella Italia finds itself in a strange hiatus in the middle, resulting in mixed feelings for the diner.
