Reviews in Aintree

A group of 6 of us went full of anticipation after hearing several positive reports regarding the quality of the food. However, we had also been warned as the quality of service varied tremendously depending upon who was working. Unfortunately we didn't get the opportunity to sample the cuisine as, after being completely ignored for over 20 minutes, we decided that we would take our custom elsewhere. Had the restaurant been busy we could, perhaps, have been more patient however it was fairly quiet. When approached by the manager (Franco?) and I explained the reason for our departure he plainly wasn't at all concerned which confirmed that our decision to leave was correct. The Merseyside area has a number of decent Italian restaurants and the main differential will always be the quality of service. Sadly based upon our experience Prego falls short.

A lovely restaurant, the early doors offer is great for saving some pennies while still having really enjoyable food!

meals here are just gorgeous, very quick to cook the meals so no waiting around......

i went to blue anchor last week for lunch,i was really pleased with food plus the pub had been done up ,there was nice cubicles with tv 's I'm going for mothers day on Sunday with a group of friends i cant wait xxx

Meals are lovely! my favorite 3meat fried rice, char sui omellete. The salt & chilli bits hit the spot 2.

I have visited Prego twice now - both times the staff have been really friendly, the starters have been lovely, but the main meals have been horrible. We have tried garlic bread, BBQ ribs and the squid, prawn and salmon starter. All of them are perfect - particularly the garlic bread. For the main we have tried pizza, which we all agreed had a horrible aftertaste of washing up liquid. Steak, which extremely over priced for what you get - a small piece of steak on a plate drowned in sauce, with some what seemed like boiled veg on the side. Chicken and bacon in mushroom sauce with rice - tasteless. Beef in a very, very rich sauce, which apparently had lime in it which I couldn't taste, with rice - too rich, sickly very quickly, not worth the money. A pint of coke is £2.80 or so, a garlic bread starter is £5, a rib starter is £6 and a seafood starter is £7. As for main meals - the steak is £15-£20, the beef and chicken were £10-£13, pizza is £5-£10 depending on toppings. Really very over priced for what you get, and the main meals really aren't worth bothering with. I decided to give it a second chance and won't be going back again.

Nice looking inside but food a little over priced for the location and for quality of food . Never again will i be be coming back, largely due to the attitude of the Manger. Better service in the Mcdonalds across the road. No wounder the place was empty, fingers crossed he will be out of work soon.

quality food and superb service, i cant ask for more. keep it up everyone at Balti Massala. The best 'indian' in liverpool.

This is a new restaurant (Old Manhatten Bar next to Paradox). It is a lovely place with really good food. They have a tea time special for only £9.95 for 2 courses (5 - 7pm). There is also a big menu to choose from. I have been a few times and really enjoyed the Chicken goujons & mozzarella sticks to start and I always get the lasagna & garlic bread as they are both lovely. My husband varies his meals. He has had pasta named "Michael Caine", "Benny Hill" & "Sophia Loren". He enjoyed Sophia more because it was a little bit spicy. If you go on a Wednesday or Thursday evening, cocktails are buy one get one free. If you like chocolate milkshake I'd recommend the Snowball (normally £5 each). I would recommend this restaurant but be prepared if you are out for a few hours then your bill will probably be about £40 per person.

Awful. Pathetic excuses given until stopped answering the phone. Never arrived. DON'T ORDER FROM HERE.

Tried out Prego for lunch recently and have to say was far from impressed with service. Food was food though. If you go for lunch make sure you get there early. We were there at 2pm and they seemed less than impressed when we asked about desserts. Then when we took their hints and left they had locked the doors! Any they advertise as being open 10am to 11pm!

STILL LOVING THE LUX !!!!! ANYONE READING AND LOOKING FOR GOOD CHINESE CUISINE THEN GO ALONG AND TRY, YOU WONT BE DISAPOINTED... WE ARE ALWAYS THERE :-)

Pleasant atmosphere, friendly and attentive staff and nice food at reasonable prices. What more could you ask for?!
