Reviews in Aigburth

We celebrated my birthday at Elif last week. The service was excellent. The staff were on hand but not intrusive, and very patient when we were too busy chatting to remember to look at the menu. We ordered several starters to share among us and each one was simple but delicious. Four of us ordered the Karisik which is a mixed kebab dish. The meat was tender, superbly tasty and the Adana especially was to die for. The wine choice was reasonable and the Sauvignon Blanc went down a treat, as did the desserts and the liquor coffees.....oh and the brandys too... All in all a delightful meal and reasonably priced for such good fare.

The food was superb. We asked the waiter if we could have our curry a little more spicy than usual and they did this to perfection. It's more impressive and spacious inside than most other Indian restaurants in South Liverpool. Fully air conditioned in the summer.

This is possibly the cutest place I’ve been to in a while, the staff are all soooooooooooooo friendly & cute & they cant do enough for you, I have been several times now, although I don’t live near Lark lane, but I must say I could really do with this being near me on a Friday morning when I have a hang-over, the staff took so much care of me and for the 1st time ever I was NOT told it was self inflicted!!! I had a famous home-made cheeseburger which I nearly fell off the edge of it and a traditional sarsaparilla soft drink did the trick! Thanks to Gill and all the staff well done girls.

Eaten here many times I rate MARANTOS 90%, food is fantastic, staff always polite and well presented. Food always hot and well cooked, i always enjoy the food is it worth every penny, never been disappointed in over 2 years that I have been going there.

I have dined in Esteban this week.Overall my experience was very pleasant Tapas were very nice however Im not sure about the paella dish in here...also glasses appeared to be far from polished (wine glasses!!) oh dear atmosphere very nice ... staff helpful...toilets clean...be coming back...

Living locally, I have been to marantos many times, the service is great the waiters are friendly, though the quality of food has deteriorated recently. Disappointing! I do hope they read their reviews and take note.

This is a really nice chilled out place to eat or drink. It also does a good quality breakfast on Sundays. Best of all, I had my birthday party there recently and they provided a fantastic buffet for my 30 guests. "Best buffet I've ever had" was one comment. Great service and great value.

I think this is the best value restaurant on Lark Lane at the moment. Myself and my boyfriend ate there last week, they squeezed us in although we hadn't booked, the service was great, friendly but not in your face. The menu offers some familiar and not so familiar choices, it's not a huge choice but I think that means they know what they're doing with the ones they do have. There are 2 vegetarian choices on the main meals, and loads of starters you can order as a main as I did, they were fine with that and brought them at the same time as Mr Charlytune's mixed grill. That and a bottle of nice white wine came to £35 for the two of us. We left very happy and feeling like we were on holiday. Highly recommended.

Since the refurbishment the service in the restaurant has declined rapidly. On a recent visit, my partner and I were made to wait over two hours for our main course to be served as our order had been lost, I spoke to the manager about this matter and was told that it was my fault as I was in a mood!

the service at the chilli banana was excellent,the staff were attentive and friendly. the food was great and good sized portions.my husband had the seabass which he loved.and i had thai style fried noodles with chicken.my husband enjoyed the thai lager and the aroma of the restaurant was fantastic,we will definitely return and will recommend this place to our friends.

Dined at Esteban again last night. It was really busy with it being the same day as the Grand national but we only had to wait 10 minutes for our pre booked table. Each tapas dish was lovely (especially the serranitos) and the service was excellent. They waited just the right amount of time to take our plates, ask if we wanted the dessert menu etc. Will be back!

Thee best Indian restaurant in Liverpool. I have been coming to this place for years and have tried other Indian restaurants but this is the best. SERVICE, QUALITY, FRIENDLY AND TASTE OF FOOD IS THE BEST. Its great they still give you free chutney and popodams. My favourite main dish is chicken goa or chicken chilli masalla

Ate their with a few of my friends this evening, one of the best Indians we've had. All in all we had a lovely BFE.

If you want a massive breakfast that's fairly cheap (and nice!) this is the place to come.

Fantastic food and great service at a really low price.. It really is difficult to find anywhere else in Liverpool to match up to this place... Keep up the good work..

GREAT food - a hidden gem! I suspect the reason I'm the first to write is to keep it a secret.

"I can honestly say it was the best meal I have ever eaten in Liverpool and I have been living here for 6 years!"

Quite simply this place is a gem and the most authentic true thai restaurant in Liverpool. Friendly efficient service, fantastic fresh aromas and flavours and a good selection of reasonably priced wines to boot. Fish cakes and sea bass did it for me!
