Akasya in Liverpool

Good Turkish food, reasonably priced for the city of Liverpool

Staff are lovely here I would recommend the lamb shank melts in the mouth

Turkish restaurant located on busy Bold Street, a street where many of the city's restaurants are concentrated. It has an extensive menu, specializing in charcoal grilled meats. They offer a daily menu, from 12pm to 5pm (not available on Saturdays), which includes a starter and main course, for £14.95. I chose this option, opting for a salad and lamb shish (lamb skewer). With a pint of Efes Turkish beer and a Turkish coffee, the bill came to £23.25 (about €28). Everything was very good, nice place, great service and exquisite and abundant food.

Great food at a great price. Friendly welcoming staff and good service. My second visit and won't be my last. Third visit .... and just as good as last time

Perfect service, amazing food, atmosphere 👌🏻

This Restaurant have toilet very very dirty , and baby change asweel ineed urgent deepclean

The food was superb 👌, with huge portions and amazing taste. Very polite and friendly service. Highly recommended 👌

Cracking meal and service as fab really enjoyed

One of the finest Turkish restaurants in the most popular street of the city for food lovers. Friendly staff who can excel even in the crowded environment. Generous portions and their meat are halal and cooked to perfection. Their two course lunch deal served between 12pm to 5pm on weekdays is worth every penny. Suggest to reserve a table as you expect it to be crowded all the time.

Nce food, although the meats were a little under seasoned.

Embarrassed and extremely disappointed. Dont take your guests there ever. I took my family came from overseas to this place and the managing guy there told us to wait for 15 mins and disappeared hanging us there for 50 mins. We left and he didnt even apologise. We ended up going to Elif, atleast they were honest with the waiting time. We waited anyway for 50 mins at Akasya, but you guys could be atleast honest. It was a lesson anyway to not go there again specially when you have guests.

Amazing service, delicious food, the staff was absolutely brilliant and extremely friendly. We ordered a special for two people and were overwhelmed by its size, we will probably have it for another lunch and dinner. We will surely be coming back.

Food is amazing as any other Turkish meals. I'm quite happy about how service staff were helpful and friendly. Saturdays are quite crowded. But it's same as every restaurant which cooks exquisite food.

Never disappointed, introduced another friend to here and we had a delicious meal! Staff are always friendly and there continues to be a great atmosphere. Definitely recommend.

Overall a positive experience. Food (4/5) - decent, clean and tasty food for what you pay for. Nothing about it was mindblowing for me to give it a perfect 5, but it was still of a very high, satisfactory standard. Can't think of any faults, other than maybe one tiny one of there being no seasoning/dressing on the salad that most good Turkish restaurants provide. Oh, but the complimentary bread was amazing. Top marks for that! As well as the sauces provided. Service (5/5) - the staff were great. Very polite. Weren't intrusive. Seemed to have a good habit of reading the room and providing you assistance just when you needed it Atmosphere (5/5) - clean, nice decor. Good vibes. For me, allowed me to wind down and enjoy a nice meal after a long day's work. So yeah, overall spot on. Next time I'm in the area I'm tempted to go back, but I also want to try out other restaurants in the area to test them out.

Lovely people, authentic food and really good value - when they say "generous" it's basically unfinishable

Safe to say the best meal I have ever had! we had the meal for 2 and everything was stunning. The bread was the nicest I've ever had and all the meats were perfection. My mom's a coeliac and we had no problem with ordering. She even got her own gluten free bread. Staff were lovely and extremely accommodating. Would 100% recommend.

Went to this great restaurant Saturday night From start to finish the service was very good and attentive The food was outstanding with nothing left on either of our plates The atmosphere was very nice as well

Top tier turkish place cannot recommend enough

Popped in here for a light bite. Opted for the cold mezze platter to share between 3 of us. It was large and very filling. The staff were welcoming.

Excellent value for money midweek 2 courses for 15 pounds. Amazing plentiful food. Kleftico lamb shank and the meatballs where delicious. Will go again

Came here for a meal with my Wife while on a visit from Birmingham. The welcome was great! Service overall was very good. Food was delicious, arrived so quick, really fresh and hot. Would definitely come back here when we visit Liverpool again.

The staff were very friendly with passion to help. The atmosphere was great and the food was amazing, the restaurant was hygiene and clean. We ordered Adana Kebab and Beyti, it was delicious and it worth money. I highly recommend this restaurant.

Really good food, lots of it and reasonable too. Staff were friendly and food arrived quicky! Highly recommended.

Everything about this place was fantastic

Visited for a light lunch on a Wednesday. Two starters and one main with tea and a coffee. Very good food and exceptional service. Would recommend.

Tasty and delicious food, friendly staff and nice atmosphere. Love it, 🥰 I do recommend it

Beautiful food, great restaurant 👌

Emergency food raid, absolutely starving. Definitely recommend this place, DELICIOUS 😋‼️Staff are amazing and the portions are grand. Absolutely going back.

10/10 all round. Amazing food, fantastic portions & service . Thankyou ! & they quickly catered for a table of 7 with no booking, though I bet we caught them at an uniquely quiet time as i know they must always be busy due to quality

Very friendly customer service and delicious food! If you go on weekdays and Sundays (12-5), there is a lunch menu offer, which is definitely worth it! Generous portions.

Very good food. Ali made everyone feel comfortable and made us laugh throughout the meals as he was checking if everyone was okay.

Lovely place they fitted us in on busy Saturday night. Lovely food, will be back x

This place was a second option as the original place we was meant to go was too busy there were 2 staff serving us in this place one who was lovely and helpful as the other one was very rude and judge-mental the food was okay abit bland no flavour but I would say the bread they give is fresh and they have a lovely chilli sauce to go with it halloumi and sweet patatoe fries were also nice

Only out for one night and spoilt for choice on Bold Street. Chose here as the smell of bbq cooking drew us in. Glad we did and had an excellent first time Turkish meal. What made it nice though was our waitress who was very friendly and helpful. It does make a difference between a normal dining experience and a really enjoyable one. Good member of staff like this invaluable. For management we didn't get her name but your young female Egyptian staff member.

Friendly staff nice atmosphere and very tasty food

our favourite restaurant in liverpool Great food and their lunch time menu 2 courses for £15, is great value love the staff there

A very very delicious Turkish restaurant I recommend it

Perfect place! We ordered three starters and three mains. And it was all incredibly delicious.The portions are large, they immediately offered a high chair for the child. The staff was very friendly and served extra bread and sauce. I definitely recommend this place. And the whole dinner cost us 15£ per person! P.s. Portions are large and filling, easy to overeat

First time visiting this restaurant. . Couldn't get a table at first . But was told come back 30mins and we'll get one. Which was great . Ordered food .the portions are huge even the sharer for 2 people . . Found the lamb rib was very tough to eat but all else was good . Great atmosphere in this restaurant as its busy place on a sat night.

Food can take a while to come out but wow it is worth it! Very generous portion sizes so platter for 2 could be for 3 or even 4 really. Definitely worth the money for all the meat and chicken you get ! Would defo return again

Best food in Liverpool and the staff are all very friendly and attentive. Would recommend the Beyti

Had fabulous meal and didn't get ripped off with price, the staff are great really friendly nice place to eat.

The food was delicious and we couldn't wait to start (sorry for the photo, it was taken after we had started). We love Turkish cuisine and travelling from Australia, this place did not disappoint. Authentic flavours and generous serves.

We are couple both in the food business, and both very picky😁, so we can say from years experience that the food was 10 of 10, really tasty. Really enjoyable! Staff and serves were very good as well. So the restaurant is the right choice for lunch or dinner

A beautiful restaurant, its atmosphere is inspired by local Turkish restaurants, and the food is also from Turkish cuisine. The staff are very kind and their service is wonderful and with a smile.

I do not recommend it at all. It does not accept Arabs

This was a great spot. Delicious food, excellent lunch deal, and really nice staff—Reem was especially nice and helped all of us tourists out with Liverpool recommendations. If I am ever back in Liverpool, I would go back!

I mostly visit this place , this time the increased the quantity of Rice as compared to lamb meat

Tasty food and great service with a Mediterranean flavour. Good value for money. Starters come with bread and dips so bring your appetite

Absolutely superb.The staff were excellent. The food was outstanding and we thoroughly enjoyed it and will definitely be back. I couodnt believe how high the reviews were. I now fully understand why they are as high as they are. Lovely tasty food thoroughly recommended

We were enticed by the lunchtime offer so went in and tried the soup and Adana and my friend had the white bait and barbequed boneless chicken. Both very nice meals.

Delicious fresh cooked food and large portions. The lunch time deal menu for £15 is amazing. Staff are very friendly and take good care of you.

Brilliant as always ,thoroughly recommend this place.

Nice and cosy overall. But I would argue that the meat was a bit too dry… Went for a sharring platter

Great experience here. The food was amazing and service was lovely too. We were served by Zuzanna, who was extremely friendly and adhered to any help we needed. Would come back again!

I very rarely give a 10/10 for food. However, I can confidently say there was nothing imperfect about my experience. Everything was absolutely amazing, with no room for faults. Top tier restaurant

Absolutely outstanding food and service. Thank you guys for a Wonderful time

Came into here looking for a quick snack but ended up deciding to stay and eat at the table. And I'm glad I did. After a lifetime of experiencing only take away Turkish food, it was a revelation to eat in and enjoy the tastes and atmosphere only good restaurants can provide. There are no proper Turkish restaurants in my home town, so this has come as a surprise. I had to eat quick and alone on this occasion, but would love to come back and enjoy at a normal pace with a partner or friends in the future. This place has changed my opinion of Turkish dining and I will be making efforts to experience Turkish cuisine more often, rather than the standard kebab after a night out.

Absolutely gorgeous food big portions really tasty and great price Staff where nice too Highly recommend

Best Turkish restaurant in Liverpool! I'll go back every time

Had a lovely dinner here as two hungry out of towners. We were served by Zuzanna who was very attentive despite it being quite busy.

The foods were good. Tasty and yummy. I think it is better than I tried in Turkey 🤭. We will come again. All staffs are very nice. My mom loves them very much.

Extremely / highly priced for a super duper small quantity of an average food. I didn't like the taste of one bit of any of the dishes. Sorry to say this, I'm extremely unhappy and angry about this. I will never visit this place again , not recommended!!!!

My friend and I popped in yesterday for an early tea. We shared the hummus starter and chicken shish for our main and they were delicious. The team were lovely and the service was great. Would definitely recommend.

Food was absolutely amazing, had the mixed grill and was cooked to perfection. Great service and friendly atmosphere. Second time I've been and will definitely be back.

Fabulous food ,super service , reasonable price , deffo eat there again me and the wife had a doggy bag two much ,so finished it off for dinner later

Had an amazing dinner mix shish) at this lovely Turkish Restaurant. Service was outstanding from all waiters, very polite and attentive. Would definitely recommend it will never disappoint! ✌🏼

It was my first time at this restaurant and the food was amazing, Special thanks to Chef , Yasmine, Reem , Beth , Ali T, Ali Reza, Saj making my time special😋

Great food great price for a pre match meal. Nice and attentive service. Generous portion sizes.

Tasty food, nice atmosphere and friendly polite staff.

We went here for a birthday celebration and we were not disappointed. The service was excellent and it had a lovely atmosphere. The food was exceptional, easily the tastiest Turkish BBQ food I have ever eaten, served with rice, salad and home made breads. Can't wait to come back here again

Great food. Good service. Staff can be a little judgemental if you order a cocktail with your lunch, which is a shame because they're really good. Id still go back for food though. Great calamari and halloumi fries.

meat fell off the bone and the lemon and coke was nice. good starter bread but nothing too special about it

We received a salad with a rotten lemon and the waiter didn’t even apologize. I even suspect he brought back the same salad plate. We got a stomach upset the next day.

Excellent food, great service, keen prices. Put it on your list.

We had the lunch menu here . it was lovely. Lovely staff, nice relaxed atmosphere so relaxing. Just enjoyed and took our time. Starters and main meal. lovely meal. So filling I had to take some away. We'll worth it. I think its the best Turkish eatery in Liverpool.

Great Turkish food :) iskander and sizzle delicious :)

Our 2nd visit and again great place, lovely staff and beautiful food. We opted for the set price lunch and came away with full tummies.

I came here for food today with my friend, we had the hummus kuvurma with lamb and some taziki, the staff were so friendly, especially ali, thank you guys!

A great Turkish restaurant and especially I recommend Izgara Köfte which is one of my favourites. Also, when you go there, please ask Ali. He was an amazing Staff and his service is very professional. I am glad to see such experienced and amazing staff. Lucky Akasya . Don’t forget to ask Turkish tea as well :) .

The food is great, well priced and great quality. The staff are very friendly and look after you well during your visit. Highly recommended.

Fantastic food and service at a reasonable price. All the staff were very knowledgeable and were very keen on providing a good experience for the both of us

Akasya Turkish Resturant, Liverpool, never leaves you empty! Always attentive service and fantastic value, with complimentary bread and dips, tasty seafoods, side salads, and delicious Kleftico lamb shank!

Akasya Turkish Resturant never leaves you empty! Always attentive service and fantastic value, with complimentary bread and dips, tasty seafoods, side salads, and delicious Kleftico lamb shank! “Great food, music and a glass of Efes beer it’s like being on holiday!”

Fantastic food. Great service. Ali our waiter was excellent. We have been to Akasya many times and everytime we loved it

Ali was amazing as our server, no ask was too much. Food was unreal - loved everything. All the staff were amazing too can’t fault it

A vegetarian and 3 meat eaters all enjoyed a top quality meal and experience We were seated at the rear of the building which worked well for as as it was a fair bit quieter I can recommend the lamb shank and service was charming and attentive primarily by Yasmin and Reem…. Thank you

The wife may have turned the weans against me, but she can never take way the feeling of satisfaction I felt after eating the succulent lamb at this restaurant.

I'm moving different. This shlit ain't nothing to me man, I'm a dog. I'm biting the fart bubbles in the bath. We smokin symbiotes. Smokin that whoopee Goldberg mega millions scratcher skunk bubba kush.

amazing food and service would recommend to everyone lovely staff, food fantastic, fast service calamari was amazing

My first visit and was not disappointed. Food was fresh and portions were large. A substantial menu catering for all tastes. Staff went above and beyond to deliver exceptional customer service. Very attentive without being too intrusive. The restaurant was very clean in all areas. The open kitchen showcased the chefs and fresh food delivering a theatrical experience. Well done to the whole team,

Has the 2 course lunch menu and it was lovely, very tasty and very filling. The staff were were attentive and very polite. Would high recommend visiting if in Liverpool

Visiting Liverpool for the first time in many years. Had no idea where to eat so looked up on Tripadvisor for best restaurants in the area and Alasya came out on top. You won’t be disappointed. Great service all the way from entering the restaurant, throughout our stay to the end. Check out Saj who looked after us impeccably. Great food albeit more than I could eat. My wife had the seafood sizzle and said it’s the best she’s ever had and she cook a pretty mean chilli seafood dish herself. Great visit not to be missed.

This place is gorgeous looking. We ordered starters, waited ages. 2 mins after starters arrived, mains did... Hmm ..also staff taking away plates when some of us still eating starters... Oh dear! Tahini nice, garlic mushrooms swimming in cream, calamari cooked to perfection, halloumi oks. We all agreed chicken, lamb kebabs amazing, as was rice. Why advertise salad with each meal when one dish on table tho? We asked staff and they said that was correct.. oh dear again! House wine right price for city/restaurant and was actually nice, vfm. Def not the best bold st venue and really expensive at the weekend. Maybe worth a visit when the special 2 course on... ,,watch this space....

Just go. .will not be disappointed . .recommended by friend. very welcoming staff.very reasonable prices.comfortable and warm,loved it.

Great lunchtime offer - 2 course for £14.95 and the food was tremendous. Fresh and tasty. Couldn’t be happier and I’ll be back again.

Very helpful with allergy information,beautiful food,fantastic service and a lovely atmosphere. Would definitely return. 10/10.

Fabulous place to eat, the food was very good and friendly service, really enjoyed it, would definitely go there again.

Fantastic attentive polite staff. Wonderful experience of turkish cuisine. Lamb ribs n chops cooked to perfection.Really enjoyable evening.
