Reviews in Southport

We went there the other week with friends, who had booked, it was quite nice, but frankly, I could not see what all the fuss was about. I found it to be bog standard bistro/gastropub food, it was nice but I felt a little pricey for what it was. I wouldn't rush back.

We have being going to this place for years. The choice of food is not huge, but the standard is better than most "eat as much as you like style" . The service for me is my only gripe. Beware when taking a 1 yr old baby. They charged us for letting the baby have some of our ice cream. They only allow you to pay cash too. People with children..... it maybe worth asking the price plan for little ones. We also were served two nice glasses of lemonade at £5.60 2 x adults 1 x baby £20.40 P.s Chicken wings are good. when you can get them

One word amazing ! Staff are very welcoming and it is a great place to go for a special meal.

Always a pleasure to dine here, the staff are friendly and efficient, nothing is too much trouble. The food has a good selection and for sheer value you must try the Thali - the Asian equivalent of tapas! A good selection of accompanying drinks can be taken in the small attached lounge, nice modern surroundings. The owner takes real pride in his restaurant.

This restaurant is always at the top of my list of enjoyments when I come back to Southport from Australia where I now live. It's a long way to come for a curry some would say....others just nod and understand. The food, the attention to detail and service are worth the trip!

Have eaten here several times, last two in party of 14 family 8 years to 75 ! We had the private room upstairs and what a good venue, nice friendly staff, good ambiance and superb food. Many ums and wows from the children who were treated with pleasant respect and not a half eaten plate in sight such is the choice. Not the cheapest place in southport but probably in our family opinion, the best ! love going there , love the food and what more can I say ? Great place

Definitely one of the best place to eat in southport. Excellent value for money, I go pretty much every week with my girlfriend and recommend it to everyone I know. The daily food deals such as half price steaks on Tuesday and two for one pizzas on a Wednesday are extreme value for money!

Can't go wrong with Pizza Express. Like the new range from their new executive chef. I had a top pizza served on slate and great new salad called semplica i think. Good views out of the big windows at this one in Southport

little jewel this place, great original food, reasonably priced, quiet location good attentive service, what more could you ask for?

bistro verite some of the best food i have eaten, good service and ambiance if a little cramped, but nevertheless the food is and always should be central to the whole dining experience and in this case it is

Finding myself in southport tonight,popped into Volares on Lord st, what a nice place !small, friendly and family owned and run. owner is the chef ! and really good food. Had Sicilian fish soup which was as nice as I have ever had, piquant and choc full of mussells. and a really good pizza with parmesan, rocket, parma ham and tiny tomatoes, it was enormous and I ended up taking half home for supper. Prices are very reasonable, 2 courses for about £13 and 3 for £15 ish , splendid value, will go again next week with the family

Hadn't been to the restaurant for years but its definitely back on form after we ate their one Sunday in Feb with friends who were visiting from London. All four of us had a different variety of beef and they were all great dishes, our friends being used to southern fine dining and prices couldn't believe the choice, quality, presentation and price. We'll definitely be back...its going to take some time to figure out the best dish. I would highly recommend Master McGraths to anyone looking for quality local food.

I went to Alamir Bistro last night for a meal with an old friend. The food was really delicious (Spicy sausages for meza and traditional cous cous with lamp for main course). A traditional Arab music played gently in the background. The staff were friendly and the hospitality warm. I would certainly recommend a visit.

Visited here with my Mum.It was best pizza I've had for a long time, we used to come here over 10 years ago as a family it is just as good now as it was then.Service attentive and friendly with fantastic food great, we wont leave it so long next time.

Excellent food at very reasonable prices freshly prepared with fine service in a wonderfully welcoming atmosphere. You must try their extensive fish menu - you won't be disappointed. It's fabulous!

Perfectly cooked food from an extensive menu in a warm, friendly dining room served by people who care. Superb can't recommend it too highly.
