Reviews in Liverpool and Merseyside

I not expecting a great Thai experience. Reasonably good would have been OK but at best the standard of the food tonight was average. The service was not what some previous reviewers had led us to expect either. We politely waited to be asked to comment on our experience as we paid the bill but either they didn't care or were too embarrassed even to ask "was everything alright?" Well, it wasn't. Five out of ten.

Visited Restaurant after seeing a concert at the Echo arena. Food was fantastic, great service and in a traditional taverna atmosphere! The decor is a bit old fashioned but it felt like we were on holiday! Would definitely go back.

Due to years of practice I would now consider myself to be a time served gastronome. Sheldrakes has been recommended to me on many occasions, by my fellow gastronomes, however, just never found time to venture over to 'the other side'. Can only say that I was far from disappointed, and it was well worth leaving my comfort zone for a few hours. The setting was stunning, literally on the shore, and once inside I was instantly struck by the warm welcome from the staff (lots of smiling). Service was great and the food was just delicious, with some really unusual flavour combinations. All in all it's a must for 'foodies'. Apparently they have a civil licence, so you can get married there too. Working on that one, watch this space :-)

Me and my boyfriend enjoyed a lovely meal on Easter Monday. Would highly recommend this restaurant. The only thing service was a little slow

Paid our first visit to Scogs about a month ago and have been back three times since! Really good atmosphere, good variety of well presented food which is fairly priced and superb, friendly staff who make the difference between a good night out and a really enjoyable evening.

Thee best Indian restaurant in Liverpool. I have been coming to this place for years and have tried other Indian restaurants but this is the best. SERVICE, QUALITY, FRIENDLY AND TASTE OF FOOD IS THE BEST. Its great they still give you free chutney and popodams. My favourite main dish is chicken goa or chicken chilli masalla

The best bar on the wirral without doubt! Great cocktails and great atmosphere. I've been converted!

Go to Damon's its great, not just for families, me and my boyfriend love it here! The BBQ ribs are devine and you get plenty for your money :-)

I was exited about this restaurant since it has been redecorated as its been many years since ive been back to liverpool,i came with an old friend of mine on Tuesday the service was a bit slow and when my soup arrived it was not very hot my friend opted for garlic bread which we both enjoyed, the main meal we both had chicken in a cream and mushroom sauce which was very bland and the plate was full off fingerprints not something you like to see, the tiramisu was fantastic, i may have come on an off day, but i was expecting a little bit more

having read the recommendations on sugarvine I decided to book a table..the only available slot was 6pm ... too early I thought (dead time of the night, no atmosphere etc)well I like to be surprised (don't we all) the restaurant is low key in decor .. but very high key in attentive service & food quality.You will not find any better or fresher sushi in the northwest ..the presentation alone is fantastic the mix set of Nigiri sushi for two represents amazing value. The mains are equally amazing ..again expertly cooked very well presented & totally moorish..you have to try the ice creams be brave & go for the black sesame ..it's the most bizarre taste ..at first a bit uggh but as it melts in your mouth you get the most wonderful nutty almost peanut brittle taste developing ..The staff are really good ..from the two ladies who served us .... I asked about saki to go with my sushi and was given a very informative & helpful response..product knowledge again was fantastic ..I spoke to one of the owners who was warm & enthusiastic & so friendly The biggest surprise was the bill I had budgeted for about £80-90 including wine & tip.Total bill for 2 with wine ..fantastic food ..fantastic friendly service...£52 WOW ..It may be small but it's got a big future..

A great neighbourhood restaurant. fine dining without the poncy stuff. fantastic food, great service, great value. head chef paul davies really knows his stuff. been there many times now and never been anything but impressed.

I booked a table this evening for four people. It was our wedding anniversary so we was looking forward to a great evening. It never happened. After waiting over 40, yes 40 minutes I asked a young gentleman ( I guess he was a waiter with the waistcoat ) how long the table would be we received no answer. After 50 minutes we gave up and complained to the manager ( perhaps the owner ) his attitude was not the best and gave me several excuses. After a little chat he decided to half the drinks bill, but unfortunately the damage had been done. I left the place very unhappy and I WOULD STRONGLY RECOMEND THAT PEOPLE BOYCOT THE PLACE UNTILL THE MANAGEMENT get their act together. I have also sent a copy of this comment to the "good food guide" as I know this complaint will not be published. I never even got an apology for the delay.

Visited Liverpool at the weekend and was fortunate to stumble across this fantastic restaurant. Food excellent, staff welcoming and friendly, great atmosphere. Fantastic!

This must be the best Indian restaurant in the world. The food is excellent, really good value for money and the staff are so friendly and attentive. Really varied menu with lots for meat eaters and veggies alike. Special take-away meal deal during the week and an all-day buffet on Sunday. This restaurant does not have an alcohol licence but you are free to take your own. Enjoy!

We went for a quick lunchtime bite. The food was excellent. A brunch half stack (sausages, eggs, toast, bacon & black pudding). Black pudding & wild mushrooms on ciabbata Chickpea, chorizo, cabbage soup with crusty bread. The prices were reasonable. Food was sourced locally - Muffs Black Pudding & Sausages. Friendly staff. And of course it's own brewery and fantastic range of beers on offer.

fantastic restaurant. i would highly recommend this restaurant. the lighting is a bit dim but the service and quality of food is fantastic. well worth the visit :)

we ate twice here while in Liverpool, and would highly recommend this place to anyone who enjoys spanish tapas. Heather and Andy Johnston. (Scotland)

The best place to eat! well recommended.....
