Reviews in Liverpool and Merseyside

Held my daughters christening upstairs at Pioneer. What a fantastic venue for a function. They won't entertain 18ths or 21sts but the best location in the area for christenings, 30ths, 40ths, 50ths etc by far. Thanks to David, Ian and all the staff for a memorable and perfect day.

My husband and I went to this restaurant on Sunday 26th and thought this was very overpriced for what seemed a good menu and the atmosphere cold and uninviting. There was a mix on the service as one waiter was very good where as the other couldn't wait to clear us out. Sorry I won't be going again.

We adore hong sing, great chinese food, reasonably priced, great atmosphere and very friendly staff. We go often with our daughter who's first visit was at 3 weeks old and the staff are fantastic with her. Great for a family meal, catch up with friends and even a great place to celebrate special occasions. Our favourite chinese!!

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 :-)

Just dreadful! Our party of 6 arrived about 4.30pm on a Sunday to a pre-booked table. We had 2 babies with us (both had lots of experience of eating out at lunchtime and late afternoon) so we were expecting to eat and be away by 6.45ish. Not too much to ask? At 4.50pm we ordered drinks and were told there was a 30min wait for food - surprising given the pub wasn't full. We ordered our food by 5.05pm and our roast dinners arrived........at 6.35pm!!! We complained, twice, and eventually were given the explanation that one member of our party had ordered a starter, shame on him! The starter in question was 2 stuffed mushrooms which arrived about 5.15pm. The rest of us had no starter, so an hour and 20min wait was unacceptable. If we had not had the babies with us, who were starving, we would have walked out and gone to pizza hut. When the food arrived it was dismal - they had run out of roast lamb and beef so only had chicken left. The chicken had been rotissieried and was dry and stringy. This was served with 3 small potatoes, 5 carrot chunks, mange tout (the only item that was cooked well) and a hard yorkshire pub. What was so frustrating was the menu looked really nice, with lots of lovely puds too. The wine list was impressive also. Sadly, by the time we had wolfed down our dinner, the babies were too tired to continue so we ignored the pud menu, paid and left. No apologies or offers to reduce the bill. My partner has written a formal complaint to their head office, we both had to have more food when we got home as we were both hungry and we will never go back again!

LOVE the food in here, we do visit quite often and we are never disappointed with the service. Cooked well, tasty and large portions!! I could just go back again now....

The food was well presented, hot and delicious. There were some unusual dishes listed on the menu and so much choice! We ordered the set meal for 2 and the curry so tasty and spicy they can blend flavours well! We thought the restaurant lacked a certain atmosphere and some of the staff could smile a bit more? We probably will return because we found this place good value for money and reasonable portions.

11 of us went for Sunday lunch. The service was very slow. The food was beautifully cooked but unfortunately did not include vegetables with the main course.

Been visiting for about 4 years now, and Monday this week was possibly the best food I've eaten here. Elsaban Tava to die for, and my friend's chicken dish was just ... mmmm! Almost full on a Monday night, which in itself has to be testament to the quality and value.

I was most disappointed with the quantity of food provided, tasty but we left hungry and lighter in pocket, after boulibaise, barely wetting the bottom of the dish and my husband had monkfish very paltry portion.

Fabulous, friendly, family run restaurant. Highly recommended for either a special occasion or just a night out.

Maybe not the fastest but certainly excellent food both in terms of taste and presentation. Highly knowledgeable and helpful staff. Lighthearted and fun rather than discreet and romantic.

Recently had a meal here and can honestly say it was amazing. The mussels are to die for and the mixture of breads with olives mmmm! Would definitely recommend this place every time!

Fabulous choice, excellent food brilliant service, as always had a brilliant meal.Coped with 10 of us really well!

My husband and I have been coming to Casa Italia for over 25 years and we also now bring our grown up children. It is the real taste of Italy - we used to go to Italy and come back to the Casa for a real Italian meal!! It is consistent, good value, good value and has a great ambience.

This place is definitely worth a visit.the menu offers a wide variety ,the staff are friendly and the atmosphere relaxed.not to mention,the dessert menu is to die for!!

Me and my hubby have been here quite a few times as it's really local to us. Food is gorgeous, nice decor with glass chandeliers. We went to the supposed best Indian in Liverpool last year and were not impressed, the Royal is way better.

This restaurant is now called 'Lings on Kings'. I have been to this restaurant a number of times over the last few years, and would recommend it to anyone. The food is excellent, and Ling will sing your favourite requests!
