Reviews in Liverpool and Merseyside

The food at Chilli Banana is excellent. I'm a regular diner here and I especially enjoy the stir fry vegetables- simple but mouth wateringly delicious. And the Chicken Gai Pad Met Mammuang is a beautiful blend of spices. Subtle but tasty. All high quality ingredients. The pricing is a bit random on the menu. It's on the pricy side for what you get but the food is so good it's worth it somehow! The fish seems relatively cheap, especially king prawns, but the soups are pricey. The service is generally very good, although we've had some less good moments, wrong food delivered a couple of times. We were also charged the full price for take-away once rather than the take away prices. Probably just a mistake but we didn't realise till we got home. It's definitely worth a visit.

Fantastic Fantastic Fantastic! Can't wait to go again...

Well! What can I say that hasn't been said already??!! This place is FABULOUS!! Have been 3 times now and can't wait til my next visit. The food is excellent - so much choice - my aim is to try everything!! Have been to La Tasca in Liverpool and it doesn't compare at all - Tapas Tapas is in a different (superior)league. The staff are very friendly and attentive and the ambience is perfect. If you haven't been - GO!! What are you waiting for??

Great atmosphere - very friendly people,. Food fantastic, without being pretentious. Very enjoyable evening.

I like it here, have visited twice and the first time had pasta and it was delicious i then discovered i cant eat wheat or dairy so thought the place would be of limits ,but went back and they made me a fab salad and caramelised fruit for dessert, fab try it its lovely.

This is the best place to eat in Liverpool. i suffer with allergies gluten, dairy and wheat and the menu tells you what? in there food to save illness later, I have eaten there lots of times but i celebrated my 40th birthday there with friends it was fantastic, the atmosphere was great, the food was delicious and i would recommend it whole heartedly try it you wont regret it! ps there wine list is pretty good too, not just the average bottle of rubbish stowells.

Lunches are good,ambience great-get a window table and look across over into Wales! Dinners are brilliant, but tend to be quite noisy Food is brilliant,inventive and tasty Been twic alrady - love the place!

I had one of the best Indians meals here and now regularly go back for more. Service was very good as we were regularly looked after and given a drink on the house by the owner Bari. Highly recommended for the quality of the food all made with fresh ingredients. Will defo go back again soon.

The chowder was excellent and the ribs were unbelievably tender. My partner had nachos and a vegetarian (sorry can't remember which one) both of which she enjoyed. The voucher we printed for free wine was very good value. My only complaint was that despite booking we were sat in a smokey and noisy area of the bar and not the restaurant, I wasn't happy since my partner was pregnant, but they were full and I was hungry. I think they should have asked during the booking if it was smoking or non-smoking. I felt we were eating restaurant food in a pub. will still go back though as the food really is very good and next time I will make sure i get a non-smoking table upstairs!

a very busy night at spire, food atmosphere and service were very good,x

Had a few meals here now, excellent standard, very attentive staff, will be back!!!

A superb restaurant for Chinese dishes. Food is great-attention to detail is absolutely fantastic. Service was superb...the only problem is its set back on a main road so people tend to miss it! They don? know what they are missing! You would 100% not be disappointed if you eat here!!

I recently dinned at Blundell Street and would fully recommend the restaurant, the food, the atmosphere, the music and the staff, (especially Paula) all contributed to an enjoyable evening.

My wife and I visit this cafe regularly at lunchtime, and, although not fancy, it is the place to come for well prepared and excellent value dishes. The service is friendly and meals are extremely well priced.

After being spoiled by top London Indian restaurants, such as Bombay Brasserie and Portes des Indes, i was pleasantly surprised to find the Maharajah in Liverpool's London road! The decor needs a little sprucing, but, that aside-excellent! My wife, who is picky about Asian food-loved a different regional taste and the rest of the family loved it. The only place I know anywhere that serves COBRA by the pint-draught! brilliant food ,lovely service- nothing too much trouble for them-and other Asian people eat there- the best advert!! Try it- you'll love the different regional taste- the fish curry is great!

My Husband and I dined here on 30th March 2007, after not eating here for almost 4 years. The quality and choice of food is excellent. My husband had the wild boar ragu for starters (which was to die for) followed by fillet steak medallions. I had the smoked haddock for starter followed by the duck. All meals were cooked to a very high standard and not a scrap of food was left ! We most definitely will be coming back very soon.

Quality restaurant quality food, quality service and quality smiles. We really enjoyed our evening after the grand national. All the staff are extremely pleasant. The food was fantastic. Thank you for a wonderful evening.

Excellent meal, great staff, especially Claire! And of course the chef!
