Reviews in Liverpool and Merseyside

We thoroughly enjoy our regular visits to The Kerala Kitchen, the quality of the food is superb with the added bonus of Kerala cuisine being different to traditional Indian food. You are welcomed by friendly, courteous members of staff who are very obliging in catering for specific or individual requests, all at a reasonable price. The vegetarian and vegan food is superb and highly recommended. A gem of a restaurant.

Me and 4 friends attended Las iguanas 01/11/08. We are local and were looking forward to the new restaurants in Liverpool one. However it was a shambles! The food we ordered arrived an hour later, it then came separately and two were cold. The food was not up to standard in comparison to the price you paid. There was an apology of the waiter but no manager to be seen! There was also arguing amongst the staff next to our table.

Food was lovely, service was a let down. Had to pour our own wine and leave the table to request more drinks as the waiters were not present. Also, for a brand new restaurant, I felt the facilities were a let down - only one ladies toilet in the whole place, which meant there was always a long queue of people through the bar area. Views are amazing, would rate food as 8/10 but I wouldn't return as it did not live up to the high expectations I had.

Booked Sunday lunch following recommendations and good reviews. Disappointing hardly cuts it. Decor was through rustic to shabby, no menus just board, very limited choice, one meat roast one nut roast then salads and sandwiches of one sort or another - even had run out of toasties (requested in desperation). What food we had was at best average. Had asked for a "good" table and while it offered some seclusion it was under a skylight which was leaking and wet our coats, bags etc. which had to be "hung up" on the floor. Atmosphere lively and obviously popular but at best cheap and cheerful (?) for a student perhaps but does not compare with proper restaurants on Lark Lane. Sorry.

We ate recently at the Que Pasa and took advantage of their midweek meal deal. The house white wine is excellent and this was free as we had two courses each. The portion sizes are great if you love your food. Nacho's to start we shared and then I had the special homemade burger which was scrummy and partner had the monkfish Which he happily announced was superb. Dessert was divine. It was the house apple pie special. It was quiet for a Monday night but that suited us nicely for celebrating our anniversary.

Visited 22nd October. Excellent choice of food.Good standard. Will be back !!!

A word of caution !! My girlfriend and I visited the Mayflower on Wednesday 22nd October 2008.We have visited there many times before, because they have a special menu for £10 pp. till 10 pm. It even has it on the window outside. We arrived at 8.30 and the restaurant was busy, but we where shown a table for two right away. We where given menu's but then asked to see the special as normal , to which we where told that they where not serving it because they where so busy. Well if you advertise it, in my book you should serve it , and just cos you got a rush on , doesn't mean you can turn it on and off when you want to profiteer..!! We got up and walked out.We wont return.You have lost out regular custom !!!!

This is not a recommendation however but would like other people to know about my recent visit - 8th October 2008. Disaster! Starters ok but a loooooonnnnng wait, house wine vile and they wouldn't let us return it because we had poured it into our glasses from their caraf (not bottle). Main course; everything salty and we never add salt, not even to chips. The alternative was pitta and dips because others were already eating their main course and we didn't want another long wait. Pudding; can't remember!!! which speaks volumes. We did get a sambuca each for my birthday however, the male waiter had the wrong attitude and we felt so sorry for the waitress who tried to help. We can't understand why everything was so bad because we have friends who eat their all the time.

A little gem!! Fantastic food, excellent friendly service with a great atmosphere!

Lovely restaurant, always good quality food and value for money. They do a great offer daily,between 5 and 10pm, £7.95 for 3 courses plus poppadoms, very good value for money

I go to eat out here quite a lot and the food is always excellent. Usually, I have the tea time special, very good value for less than £10. Plenty of choice, on the menu and good quality tasty food.

The food is always an enjoyable experience and I managed to finish all 18 courses because it was so nice!! You get service with a smile and there is always a good atmosphere here. You do feel like you have had a really good night out when you choose Othellos. We will be back again before Christmas.

Oh what can I say? The flavours in the curry come alive. This has to be one of my all time favourite Indian restaurants! The staff are friendly, you never have to wait long. I can't wait to return to try another dish. (I am working my way through the menu).

Very disappointing, Very busy, waited ages. starters of puri,soggy dough. The meat and fish in main courses were all a different temperature to the sauces suggesting that meat and sauces are cooked separately and plated up as required and not cooked and marinated together. finally a waiter dropped a drink on me, very little apology and no offer of any recompense. Not impressed.

id like to say a big thank you to all the staff at tapas tapas we had are party here for mt brothers 40th the food was outstanding i so enjoyed every tapa we had with the chicken and potato being the favorite,will defo be back and recommend this restaurant to any one for that special occasion or a little lite bite thank you all,jenny bennett x

do not order the lamb kebab as you will be very disappointed as it is beef instead just marinated in not so very good mint sauce

Service very fast,too fast,like they don't want you in there. Had some squid stuffed with prawns that was excellent, everything else was average.The beef with chili garlic,duck and pineapple and sweet and sour chicken all seemed to have same sauce and everything had lots of carrots.
