Reviews in Liverpool and Merseyside

The first time my family had come to Damons weren't the happiest of people. But since then my family came to visit for a birthday and must say amazing the way we were looked after. Our waitress JO was so pleasant and nothing was too much for her to do. During our stay we experienced the sound of the past in which was so good gave the feel of the old days, also a manager had the time to come and say hello checked everything was ok with our meals and service but done it in the way we dint feel bugged. So many thanks to JO who was our waitress and the management team.

I have been a regular at Mr. Chans for the last 16 or 17 years, and can say it just gets better and better every time we visit. Charlie and Loi run the restaurant with a warm and friendly attitude, but being very professional too. We love his sea bass done with ginger and spring onion, and a bottle of N.Z. sauvignon blanc, just heaven. bon appetite!

decent excellent classy

Our favourite restaurant since we used to live just around the corner, sadly we have now moved to London and will only be able to return occasionally, but we will return on visits home as the food is always exceptional. The food here is better than at Tony's (if anyone remembers that great place, now sadly closed down). Mostly older people in Julian's, but we are only in our 20's and we love it.

Ive been here a couple of times now, and haven? had a bad meal once. The food is fab and very good choice, i would recommend the fillet steak here, it is the best ive had in Liverpool yet. Atmosphere good and restaurant always busy which is always a good sign

Great food, rather over-attentive service (waiters hovering constantly ready to whip your plate away!) but one of our favourite Indians. Food is always lovely. A bit pricier than some, but reflected in the food quality. You can take your own drinks too, which keeps the cost low.

This restaurant may be too expensive for most to visit often, however, as a special treat it is absolutely perfect! The food was amazing, with just the right amount of flavour combinations, and the service was incredibly attentive without being too pushy. I will definitely be visiting this restaurant again, probably as part of a larger group as I would not hesitate to recommend it!

We picked this restaurant because of the other reader reviews, and they are fully justified! It is very good indeed. Food is cooked with fresh herbs and spices, the portions are generous, and the service friendly and knowledgeable. The Goan Green Chicken is highly recommended. And we agree that the chutneys are excellent - the tamarind one is a must-try!

My favourite Indian restaurant in Liverpool. Great food really tasty, very attentive friendly staff and reasonably priced. Generally quiet, but its a nice clean restaurant where you can have a bit of privacy when eating as they have alcoved booths to sit at too.

I have been to the Chung Ku on several occasions, notably for my 40th birthday and my daughters 21st and have only ever encountered a couple of minor problems ( wrong food served and slow service when busy)however, i still rate it as the best chinese restaurant in liverpool or the north west.

Dined with my family on Christmas day and as always the food and service were excellent, I had the venison Wellington which was the best i have ever tasted, full marks to Andy and the staff,10/10

At first thoughts I thought the restaurant itself was really nice although I? not really a fan of the open atmosphere it had, as I like a bit of privacy when eating out. However the food was really nice, service was good and efficient, and the prices are reasonable.

Sapporo is such a special restaurant which u can't find it anywhere in Liverpool. it might be the reason they become so successful. Although the food in there is not so Japanese, especially on the Teppan-Yaki side. Most of the dishes are with the same based marinate. However, don't get me wrong, it tastes real good. At the bistro bar, they have a good range of liquor and sushi menu is very good. Fish are fresh, and the special Sapporo sushi is well worth the price. The ambience is good, but I would like it to be quieter, may be it is because we went there on Saturday. I have to say it is not the most romantic venue in Liverpool but for partying, I m sure u will have a fab time. The wine is reasonable, but the list not impressive. Generally, Sapporo is a westernised Japanese Restaurant with excellent staffs and ambient, suitable for European? taste bud.

I have been living in Birkenhead now for 34 years and this is the beat Indian restaurant that I have been to. It offers excellent value for money and the food is always 2nd to none. It is sometimes hard to get hold of a table on the weekends so would recommend to book a table in advance. Would recommend this place always to my family and friends.

the food and ambience at Sakara alone should make it one of the top restaurants in the area.. the decor of beautiful dark wood floors and orange beaded lighting made me feel I was in Turkey or Morocco and the tapas of gorgeous food from around was delicious.. wonderful flavours in unexpected combinations

An absolutely brilliant place to chill out with friends. Chris was in his element as owner manager and genuinely loves his work. The bar selection is impressive and well run by Claire and Cora. The food choices are amazing and chef Mark an asset to the establishment.

We have eaten here on several occasions, most recently New Years Eve, cannot recommend it highly enough. Food is always to the highest quality, as is the service. The restaurant itself is nicely set out, not smoky, clean and very smartly decorated. Children are also very welcome and catered for.

This is in fact my second review. Earlier I'd complained about the coconut chutney with the Dosa. This time I told them beforehand and they came up trumps and had just the right consistency of coconut chutney with their dosa. Also gave me the extra helping of Samber! Recently in London, I ate at the Chennai Dosa, a chain in London. To be honest, I thought the Sambar of Maharaja was far superior to that served at Chennai Dosa. So Full marks on Samber chaps! Three slight niggles still - just to prove no bias - Chennai Dosa served the green and red chutney which is traditional with dosa's. But for some reason Maharaja did not do this. Also in the potato masala mix I believe it is traditional to put mustard seeds which were missing. Those three niggles aside, I think the Maharaja Dosa is very nice and overall better than that at the Chennai Dosa which also gets good comments. To be even-handed, I should add that Chennai Dosa only charge £2.40 for a masala dosa, while Maharaja charge like £6.50, but I think the Maharaja one is well worth it. So overall I'd give it a 7 to 8 out of 10, if they got the red/green chutney sorted, and the mustard seeds in the masala then I'd have given a 10/10. If you haven't yet tried a Dosa, then you must visit this place, you will not be disappointed.
