Reviews in Liverpool and Merseyside

Fast Service, food ok, only Greek open on a Monday night in the area!

This place is amazing i went on a Saturday evening and had to wait for an hour for a table but it was well worth it... we had the burrito and the enchiladas and both were nice big portions and very tasty. They also had table cards out advertising the Sunday breakfast so with hangover we went back the next weekend and had another great time i couldn't believe how busy this place was for a Sunday. will return, gr8 food and gr8 service. Thanks to all at the Tavern!!!

Lovely little place - good food and reasonable.

Superb food, ambience and service, stunningly good prices. Cannot recommend highly enough. Had lunch today-3 courses for £7.95 per person! Wonderful starter of chicken stuffed with black pudding followed by duck on a bed of creamed potato-the duck was tender and perfectly cooked with perfect vegetables. Sweets to die for, especially the crème brulee. Rustic French cooking at its best, and flawless, attentive service. Amusingly, french lessons broadcast in the spotlessly clean toilets. Do not miss this extraordinary place-I had never heard of it before today but will definitely go back. From someone who usually finds fault with other Liverpool restaurant recommendations!

I went to La Vina on Saturday night with my date, although we hadn't booked we were put onto the reserve list and actually seated within half hour of arriving, despite being given a initial 45min waiting time. We were given a table at the far end, given the fact we were on a date - i think it was the best place to be, slightly away from the bigger groups of tables. The waiting on staff were attentive yet distant, not hovering over you but within earshot should we have needed them. We picked 6 tapas dishes in all; of which i can recommend the chorizo, stuffed mushrooms, patatas bravas and the king prawns in chilli&garlic. As far as i'm aware the bill was reasonable, although i didn't pay. With that in mind, i shall definitely be returning to sample the paella which i've been told is fabulous. Spot on for ambience, quality of food, price and locality. i'm hungry just writing the review...!

I have dined in Esteban this week.Overall my experience was very pleasant Tapas were very nice however Im not sure about the paella dish in here...also glasses appeared to be far from polished (wine glasses!!) oh dear atmosphere very nice ... staff helpful...toilets clean...be coming back...

As a Help Lady, I have experienced many different kinds of people, but the man I spoke to today at this restaurant was extremely friendly and willing to answer any queries I had. Therefore, you should eat here and request Caz's guy.

fantastic restaurant! been here numerous occasions, lovely food, staff and atmosphere. highly recommend the mezze!

mmm mmm mmm!!! this restaurant is ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC! so fresh and full of immense flavours!! i will now eat at no other Chinese restaurant. china town itself and its array of eateries are NO comparison!!!!! WOW! we ate their last night. and i've woke wanting to go back tonight! if only these guys done deliveries!!!

We wanted a quick meal before the theatre, and stumbled across the Maharaja quite by chance. Quite the best Indian meal we've had in a long time, no lurid colours, and the fish curry was delicious. Recommended to anyone who really appreciates good food, and is happy to try something different from Chicken Tikka Masala. Loved the smart cream and black decor, the service was quick and friendly, we'll be back!

I've been twice, both in May 08. First time, I ate in the restaurant; great choice of wines and food menu is good. There was an early bird option which includes a fair selection of meals. One thing to note: you have to order sides (veg, chips/potatoes) as extra so it's not as cheap as it may seem - still, it is not too bad! The veg was just green beans - I wish they'd have told us that before we ordered two portions... Second time I went, I stayed in the lovely bar area and had some fantastic tapas - I would recommend you try it. Get there early though - this cosy venue can fill up and deservedly so as it's a great place to meet up with friends and enjoy a bite to eat.

Great food, fast service, highly recommended

Went to Fraiche again with my husband for lunch. The food was beautiful as before. The chef is clearly very talented. His food is a real marriage of unusual textures and flavours and this makes for a real dining experience. I cannot imagine ever disliking anything offered. My only complaint is that I would love bigger portions of the main ingredients and then it would be perfect!

The food is very nice indeed. The place is clean and upstairs toilets spotless you think you are going into somebodies home when you get upstairs lovely. The staff are very attentive and the owners very involved would recommend to anyone

Wow!! This restaurant is amazing. The food is cooked so beautifully it`s well worth the money. I have been a few times and have loved it every time. The only disappointment at the moment is they have taken the duck off the menu for summer. Can`t wait for it to return in the winter! In the meantime I`ll have to console myself with the delicious Choc hazelnut brownie!! (make sure you leave room for that you will not be disappointed!)

I love this place!! Have been many times with friends since I started working in Liverpool and think it`s just fantastic! Great atmosphere and great food.

Had a really lovely meal with my very picky father on Fathers Day. very good choice of food. Really good value for money. staff are really friendly. Will definitely go back.

With spectacular views, this is possibly the best restaurant in the UK at the moment. I went recently dined with a large group and we were all equally impressed. A wide menu choice (which changes weekly) and good wine list. The staff were informative and attentive without being intrusive - special mention for Oliver and Richard for making the occasion memorable. I would recommend this restaurant if you are looking for a special or new dining experience.
