Really nice food atmosphere and staff Highly recommend

I don’t usually leave negative reviews, but our experience at Souvla was honestly one of the worst we’ve had in a long time. First impressions weren’t great – my wine glass arrived with lipstick stains on it. We ordered a bottle of rosé, but what was brought to the table tasted off and definitely wasn’t what we had asked for. When we raised this with the waitress, instead of offering to change it, she snapped that “now you’ve opened it you have to commit,” despite the fact that she never even let us taste it before opening. The attitude was incredibly rude and unprofessional. We were shocked to see the was Jack Rabbit brand at £20 a bottle, this retails at £5. The food didn’t redeem the experience either. The halloumi was cold and bizarrely served with tomato sauce instead of sweet chilli as it said on the menu, when we raised this mistake with the waitress she laughed and said “they just see a red bottle” no offer to replace it. The chips were barely cooked and rock hard, the rice was underdone, and while the chicken had some nice flavour, it was dry as a bone. To top it off, our plates were cleared without anyone asking if we were finished – a small detail, but it summed up the lack of care in both food and service. For the prices charged, I’d expect far better. Sadly, we left disappointed, still hungry, and certain we won’t be returning. The only reason we have given this 1 out of 5 was due to the young man who tried to make up for his colleagues rudeness by giving us a free brownie to share at the end of the meal. The female waitress also reminded us of the closing time as it was clear she wanted to go home. Her attitude was terrible!

Great family restaurant, we love it here

This was my third visit and as always the service was excellent. The early bird menu is such good value for money and there are loads of options. Sadly one of the kids meals was too salty. A breaded chicken meal was ordered and a few of us tasted it. We thought the chicken was a little over seasoned with salt too. But overall the meal was beautiful. The halloumi and dip for starter is my absolute favourite. The dip is divine! The windows were all opened as it was a lovely evening and this added to a holiday feel/atmosphere. Keep doing what you’re doing, Souvla, with maybe a touch less salt. We will definitely be back to visit you again and appreciate all you do to provide a lovely service and tasty food ☺️

We waited a long time to be served, and eventually had to call waiters over to do so. It LOOKED a nice place, as did the previous restaurant than ran it, but it was blowing a gale through the open eaves, making our food cold. The chips were cold when they were served, and very hard to the bite, like they had been left standing a long time. We had already decided not to tip them, which is rare for us, but we were very annoyed to see that they had charged us a £4 service charge on the bill. This practice should be made illegal. We have eaten in many Greek and Turkish restaurants in the area, as we like that type of food, and this has been the worst of them. The menu was very limited too. They didn't even have a soup option! I want my £4 back.

We waited 20 minutes to be served a drink and given food menus, the starters were great but the mains was seemed rushed as the halloumi wasn’t cooked properly and the meat was quite bland. It seemed short staffed in there.

Excellent food and service. Great value for money.

Absolutely gorgeous food, great service and a fair price. Portions are very generous too!

Brilliant early bird menu, lots of really lovely food and sat out in the sun! Staff were really friendly as always! We’ll keep coming back!

Fabulous service and an amazing place to eat. We booked, however the traffic was horrendous due to the LFC parade but our table was kept open for us. We were greeted with a lovely welcome and nothing was too much trouble for the staff, even though they were run off their feet. We asked for the quickest food on the menu and our delicious chicken gyros came within minutes, plus a complimentary bottle of table water. The prices were very reasonable and the restaurant had airy, light rooms. The bathrooms were clean and well presented. Thank you Souvla! We will be back and will recommend your Allerton Road restaurant to all

The atmosphere and service were, as always, excellent! We had a small issue with the booking system, but it wasn’t a problem – the staff did their best to find us a table as quickly as possible. Since we were in good company, waiting a couple of minutes didn’t bother us at all. The food was absolutely amazing – fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Highly recommended

Food was delicious, lovely airy and friendly atmosphere. Quick service and great value for money. Perfect for every occasion.
