Anar Turkish BBQ Restaurant in Liverpool

Fresh, flavorful food served in a cozy, inviting space! The staff were kind and professional, and each dish was prepared to perfection. This restaurant is definitely worth a visit for any food lover.

Our second staff meal here. I got the lamb sarma both times. Everyone is always very satisfied with their food!

Best Adana and the best Turkish in Liverpool.

We booked this restaurant cause it resembles the one we originally wanted to go to but couldn’t find any tables even though we were trying to book 2 months in advance but we’re very disappointed with the food portions. ordered for 4 plate but honestly that meal looked like it was for two people if it was in elif restaurant. really disappointed by that but the actual food was good just the tiny portions for 65£ was not worth it at all and disappointing won’t be going there again. And the bread was hard like it was just sat there for hours not fresh at all the side salad was also disappointing but service was great the atmosphere was good as well.

Can't go wrong in anar never go home hungry good size portions plenty of salad if that's your thing and lovely food

I’m sorry to say this but the quality of food really gone down, we had a takeaway around 5pm and was not busy at all, but they manage to miss all the side orders. Ordered 2 Sharma suppose to come with 2 rice and 2 salad with deeps, they only send 1 salad and 1 deep no rice at all, the food was bland and falafel undercook. Use to be soo good but really disappointed in my last visit. The manager told me he going to look after me next time, we’ll see if improve.

Very tasty! I had lamb liver with vegetables 🥰😍 Turkish coffee is wonderful)

I am sorry to say that I was disappointed. The restaurant was nicely designed but the food was tasteless, the waiters did not smile and it took time to fulfill our requests. For example, we had to ask 4 different waiters for 2 drinks, the bread was very stale and tasteless. We ordered lam rips but there was no meat, it was covered with fat, I ordered lam saute, since the plate was hot, they ordered the plate on a small bread basket so that it would not damage the table (I think). No one said goodbye, see you or goodbye to us when we left the door. I think saying it as a courtesy would benefit every workplace. I hope the owner of the business reads this and fixes these deficiencies.

A little disappointed, bland food and a dull atmosphere... Garlic mushrooms drowned in cream with no flavour or seasoning, a large portion but totally wasted in a pint of cream, bread was stale and as rough as boot leather... Both had Chicken Shish, chicken was overcooked, rough and again bland. Rice was stodgy and lacked flavour. 1st and last time visiting Anar, it was mediocre at best.

Some of the best food I’ve ever had I’ve been multiple times and always love it the food is amazing the service is excellent and it’s always so clean. No matter what time you go you will have a great time.

Came in and the waitress was rude

First time here at Anar, lovely atmosfere, food cooked lovely. It brought me back memories from my own home country (which is not turkey) but we have a huge turkish influence in our cousine. Very homely and turkish autentic which i love. Staff was very acomodating, attentive, dishes cleaned off the table straight away, prompt service, we didnt waited long for any of our dishes of drink orders. Not one reason to be unhappy with food or service, and was my birthday treat. Will definitely return and recommend to family and friends.

Fantastic food, good service, the chef provides consistently great food, there is a lovely atmosphere and reasonable prices, I would highly recommend

Mixed kebab everytime I visit....One of my favourite places to go for a kebab...I do need to try other meals in the future though...

Fantastic food and service. There isn't a designated prayer area, but the staff were happy to give us a corner to pray. Really nice people.

Nice food. But I've had better turkish food in Germany. Adana kebab was dry and too salty.

Razia was very helpful and provided a great service to our group. Food was very nice.

Everything about this restaurant was first class

Was there last nite for granddaughters 16th the food was amazing, the staff was lovely, just loved it, will go back for sure, they brought the drum out with her cake 🎂 it was just beautiful 😍 Thanks for a great nite....will recommend it for certain 👏👏😘

Very expensive for what you get, Majority of the mixed kebab was chicken wings which is very cheap, not much salad we were still hungry when we left, overall is a rip off

First time visiting for my nieces 16th birthday and we had a lovely evening our waitress was Stan she was lovely food was amazing and plenty of it would highly recommend the kebab for 2, the staff made a big fuss of our niece all singing and playing a drum made her feel special we will defo come again

Had a fantastic dining experience at Anar Turkish Restaurant with my family. We ordered the mixed kebab for four, and it was not only incredibly tasty but also generously portioned—easily enough for five of us! The flavors were spot on, and every dish was fresh and well-prepared. The service was excellent, and the atmosphere made the meal even more enjoyable. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a delicious, hearty meal.

Great place for business & pleasure. Fabulous food, service, and highly recommend if you're having a birthday.

My friends, keep the area/place as it is. Enjoyed you your welcome with a fresh, veg, toast & chips.. Good quality Coffee Will try your, evening meal, Tks Chef & all the team.. Chxxx 💛🙏❤️

I tried Sarma! What a decent dish it was. A mixture of different tastes.

Nice food and portions are generous

A lovely meal. Very healthy. Lots of parking. Attentive staff.

Turkish Breakfast and service is really excellent. The staff is very kind. I always prefer this place to have a perfect breakfast on my holidays.

The portions are quite big. Food is OK

One of the worst customer service and uncooked food. They have new staff woman. She was very rude. She wanted us to ordered for 8 people even though one of our guest was on diet. Next time duman restaurant never anar.

Very bad service waitres is very bad manners and food is cold and food come without breads we ask for bread so she tell me we charged sauces and breads we are go there with our guests we feel much shame and i go to reception and i request plz change the waitres and next waitres is great but we are regular customer neve go there.i recomend all customers go to dhuman L9 and istanbool Manchester is excellent customers service

If you decide to go out for breakfast choose this place won’t regret it definitely 💯

The place is fabulous and the service is top quality. Congratulations. God bless you always 🙏 🙌

Love that anar has a breakfast menu until 3pm. Very good service and price ☺️

Excellent place to end the week, peaceful and lovely atmosphere.

I am really sad to take my time to come and write this review. The service and the food was good up until the end Where one of the staff was quite rude and passive aggressive. They made a mistake on our bill and the waiter was gaslighting us and didn’t wanna accept that they made a mistake. He made snarky comments to make us feel like we didn’t wanna pay or couldn’t pay, even tho we were trying to explain the situation and solve it.To then later find out that they’ve put a wrong order on our bill. We did not get any apologies and they were still acting as of though we were in the wrong. I felt disrespected and the way that they handled the situation was very disrespectful and shameful. Personally, I will not be back. Please train your staff to be mindful on how they approach, treat and deal with customers. Food and drink was nice

Food hot and absolutley lovely. It was quiet but service wasn't as should be or has been in past .staff standing round talking had to wait to catch their attention .

Went for breakfast, had the mixed share platter, lots of tasty food, really enjoyed and value for money

Excellent food 😋 👌 real authentic Turkish grilled food . I had the platter for two quite big but I ate it all unreal tasting . Then there's the deserts on offer just woww I went for the biscoff cheesecake , So I'd highly recommend anar especially the meat eaters !!!

very good food, large portions, friendly service, I will definitely come back

Just been for the first time, the food was delicious and top quality. The portion size was very generous. The staff were fantastic and really nice. Highly recommended.

I went this morning, the 25th of August, around 9:30am, and a guy name Boris (don't know if he gave me a right name or not) came to take my order. I wanted to get 3 portion of Supreme Breakfast, taking away for my family at home, which was £90, he said no, we do not do this kind of breakfast as a take away, I said can you please explain why you don't ? He said no, no, my manager told me not to do this breakfast for taking away, I said can you ask your manager the reason, he said no, and he was super rude. Then I came to Istanbul's Bar & Grill in Woolton, he was super friendly and I ordered turkish breakfast for 7 people, and I was super happy. I am super angry with Anar customer service and I don't know why they did let me down with that much rudeness. I live in London and often comes to Liverpool as a member of my family is here, always have this breakfast inside Anar restaurant, and it was the first time that I wanted to do takeaways, really sorry for the management and the rude server, I will not come to your restaurant ever again and I will let others know about your behaviour and rudeness, terrible service 👎🏼

One of the best restaurants in Liverpool, we celebrated my husband 30th birthday. Staff cared and was attentive to all my family,food amazing everyone was full and also we took home some food because can’t finish in restaurant. Highly recommended to everyone. Big thanks to all staff !!!

That's why they're rated top don't get me wrong Food only 2 stars why ? The portion is very small for the price. If in Liverpool I pay £26 for a mixed grill I had the same for 50% in Leeds. If I pay £39 for a bigger portion and given a smaller portion like a £26 pound worth you'd think twice but taste ok. Just the smaller portioning on the serving. Also, they try to hide the bread along with the real meat in the sauce. We're paying for meat not bread but 50% or 60% in the dish was bread. Come on.

Delicious tops Elif for me as well as someone previously has stated Which proves how good this place is Party of 10 including 3 children plenty of Mediterranean European people eating here so always a good sign First time for myself but it definitely won't be my last

Went here for dinner with my parents a couple of weeks ago, we were all thoroughly impressed with both the food (quality and quantity!!) and service. Unfortunately we didn't get our waitress's name but she was delightful. There was a small mistake with our order and the staff went above and beyond to make our experience nice.

A very wonderful restaurant. There anyone can taste Turkish and oriental food, and enjoy a good time in the company and care of the staff who care about every little thing to satisfy the customers.

I've had many a takeaway from here and its always good, not today Sunday, chips absolutely freezing, salad bowl half empty no lettuce bit spare, and rice was really wet. I think next time I will go to town and order from another Turkish restaurant.

I like the food but the service very poor 👎🏻

Great food, certainly vibrant and busy. A little expensive but you do get quality food.

My family and I went for my husband's anniversary we were made very welcome and the meals were excellent we had a young baby with us and the staff were very good with him can't wait to go back ❤️

Very good at all chapters.... Highly recommend it

Such tasty breakfast at Anar, Really recommended.

The place was good, and food was flavourful. I think great kebabs the quantity was really good. The Sarma/Sorma was the highlight! I think the cocktails could be better.

The ribs had more salt on them then the Pacific ocean. If it wasn't for our lovely . Amazing server I would boycott the place... however she made us want to try again

Fantastic food 👌🏻 This tops Elif, my previously favourite Turkish restaurant in Liverpool. I visited with 2 friends, and was glad we booked, as even on a Monday evening it was busy. The food was delicious, plentiful and served quickly - right off the charcoal grill! Would highly recommend the Adana kebab and mixed grill to anyone struggling to decide. I’d definitely come back and will be bringing my friend and family with me!

The place is beautiful, halal and the food is fresh

Love everything about it. The place is comfortable with plenty seats. The music is not too loud. Various choices of menu with great taste, appropriate price and portion. Fast services.

After a long drive from falkirk Scotland we arrived here in Liverpool on Monday and came across this restaurant. The food was really delicious and cooked to perfection we really enjoyed the Sarma and Adana kofta. I would’ve been a 5 star if we weren’t disappointed on the chicken wings there were so tiny for the price you pay for them. Like you get 8 to 9 pieces but there so small and not worth the price and another thing most restaurants swap rice for chips but the waitress was like no u have to pay extra for the chips which was odd as kids don’t really eat rice and my kids wanted chicken wings with chips not rice. Other than that is was really good and the atmosphere was good.

Literally must be one of the best Turkish restaurants in the north west nevermind Liverpool. The food is always fresh and tasty whilst remaining very competitively priced! Id recommend the Adana kebab and chicken shish, also the feta cheese spring roll starter!

Promised so much yet failed to deliver. First off they didn't have the drink I ordered so they replaced it for another without even mentioning it. The food was mediocre at best. We had the mixed kebab for two. The rice was extremely over cooked. Food portions weren't great for the forty quid it cost for the main course. The only shining light was the baklava and ice cream that was delicious. The atmosphere was more school canteen than a restaurant for grown ups. Don't know which was more annoying. The fact that most tables had an annoying loud mouth or them banging that bloody drum every few minutes! Won't visit again. Not impressed over all.

BE CAREFUL Scam! I received a debit in my credit card for £180 from this restaurant. I don’t live in the UK, I have never been there . I called the restaurant and they were super rude to me , and they just hung up on me . I am reporting this to the police

Family get together for 25+ family members Good evening had 😀

The food was very delicious, especially the mixed grill, and the service was wonderful, especially the girl who was wearing a hijab.

We often go here for lunch and to be honest today it was awful. We asked for a table in the back where we usually sit as our friend has a bad back and the taller seats against the wall are more comfortable for her. Breakfast is advertised as being served until 3.00. it was approximately 1.15. We were told we could sit at the front corner table and only given the main menu not breakfast, I presume he was the manager but he was unsmiling and quite unfriendly and we did not feel welcome at all. The usual friendly server laid the table she is always very good, had a quick chat and a friendly word. Then a young server took our order. Once the food had been served noone asked if it was okay. The sausage was so over cooked it was like leather. We couldn't send it back as noone came near us. About 20 minutes sitting with our used plates still in front of us, we had to ask the first server to clear. He just waved and walked away. We spoke to a different server and asked for coffee etc. He cleared the dishes. The first server then came back with our bill and we explained we had ordered more items. To be honest it was dire. It was only the lady and the second server who showed any welcoming, professional behaviour. Thank you.

Popular restaurant. Food was a bit bland. Extremely chaotic atmosphere.

Been here for the first time tonight. Booked at short notice - advised that we needed to & managed to get a table with 40 minutes notice. Excellent quality food. My steak salad was gorgeous & my friends food looked delicious. Really high quality meat. Wonderfully attentive staff. Will definitely return

Great place for fathers day Amazing food and really nice cocktails

Beautiful place to eat. Lovely staff. Been there severally and I'm never tired of going there. I love the food!

Really nice friendly staff , food is excellent. Interior decor high standard..defo recommend

Delicious Turkish food, would highly recommend

Wow, what a place. The food is incredible the staff are super nice.

Food has been consistently good here. Was here for a treat for our little one. We have a good meal. Pictures attached 😄😍

bedienung eizig artig und wunderbar Stanimiera hat sich sehr mühe gegeben Çok güzel mutlaka tavsiye ederim Stan ile tanışın…

All food was fresh and beautiful. Child friendly.

Got good service loved the experience.

The first meal I ordered was on the cold side and without hesitation the meal was replaced and actually upgraded. The lamb was some of nicest meat I've ever had and I've been to Greece, Turkey and Marrakesh and yep this was stunning. First time here and will be back!

Poor quality food, ordered Lamb chops BBQ, small portion and chewie elastic meat undercooked. Over rated place. Never again

Wonderful food and great service

Today we finally went into the Anar Turkish restaurant. The menu was full of amazing Turkish cuisine. We went with the breakfast for two and it was superb!! The food was delicious and the hot food was presented in traditional Turkish copper ware, the breads, pastries and condiments all came in matching sharing dishes. The quality and freshness of the food was first rate. Service was quick, efficient and welcoming. The staff were friendly and nothing was too much trouble in fact you could tell they took great pride in their rolls in the restaurant. The pot of Turkish tea with the breakfast is genuine Turkish tea with that unique red colour and served with beautiful dainty Turkish tea glasses. I was a little greedy as I had a Turkish coffee as well, I just couldn't help myself! Again authentic prepared in a cezve with a foamy head. The coffee cups we beautiful (now I want a set just like them). A massive thank you to today's service team Stan, Sami and Marina who smiled the whole time we were there! The staff were professional, efficient and friendly. We were made to feel very welcome, just like a family member, the Turkish tradition of being exceptional hosts is definitely here in abundance. The only thing missing was a view of the Bosporus and the Hagia Sophia which unfortunately is not in the restaurant control. This is now our breakfast date place from here on. I highly recommend Anar, great food, great staff, very very clean and more than welcoming. Kahvaltımız için hepinize çok teşekkür ederiz, çok yakında geri döneceğiz!

Unexpected find - little gem discovered because we were trapped in traffic on Edge Lane! Lovely food

I went here for many reasons all were every time this restaurant was mentioned to me all I heard was how nice it was very authentic. I tell you this it didn't disapoint

Our first time here, excellent food, good service, varied menu & value for money. Shout out for Stan, table 77, friendly & professional service, advised us about meals. Would highly recommend Anar & will be back

I had an absolutely horrendous experience at Anar Turkish restaurant. From the moment we walked in, the manager's hostility and aggression were palpable. Despite him offering us a seat, he proceeded to shout at us, claiming he couldn't seat us after all. It was an incredibly embarrassing and uncomfortable situation. The level of unprofessionalism displayed by the manager completely ruined our dining experience, and needless to say, we left feeling incredibly disappointed and disrespected. I would strongly advise against patronizing this establishment unless you enjoy being treated with disdain and yelled at for no reason.

Great place with superb food and service

5 star food 5 star service Definitely recommend

Lovely. Welcoming staff, tasty food, big pots of tea, sticky sweet baklava: thoroughly recommend it. Car parking available, level access. We'll definitely return! Update: have been returning often and they are so helpful

Food was LOVELY - parking facility right outside. Plenty of space. Fast service an the staff where friendly an very wel organised . Will 100% be going back

Would like a moment to say my experience in Anar. We where served by a lady called Razia and by far the best service. She was so friendly and polite. Food was amazing but most importantlay in a restaurant service is most important in my opinion. Thank you razia we will be coming back just because of you.

It is a family restaurant with great food

The food was raw meat the staff was not nice and polite they were aggressive while complaining about the food do not recommend and very expensive

Was really excited to try this place, went with 3 of my friends on a busy Friday night. Overall it was a very pleasant experience, staff were great, atmosphere was upbeat and lively, I just thought although the food was good, it wasn't quite as good as previous Turkish restaurants I've been to. Don't get me wrong it wasn't bad in any way shape or form, just personal preference I think. That being said I wouldn't hesitate going back to Anar as I had a perfectly good experience.

Visited here with my boyfriend, who had been before. He’s a meat lover so he ordered a meaty main whereas I went for halloumi. Mine was delicious, the sauce was lovely and the rice was the nicest I’ve ever had. He very much enjoyed his too, particularly the lamb chop. The Turkish delight that came at the end of the night with the bill was superb, the best I’ve ever had and I fully regret not asking if I could buy a bag of it to take home!

It's a gorgeous restaurant and it makes me so exited for eid because we go their every time this restaurant will never let me down I love u anar

Amazing food, great service me and my family always visit this restaurant every big event because of how great this place is. I recommend the Meat Sarma 😍.

Lovely dinner. Started with fellafel and cheese spring roll, followed by ribs. Very nice

Food not nice packed out with cheapest meat mainly breast of lamb ??? and bony chicken rice tasted greasy and nasty wraps . However the coffee was nice

We would like to return there 😃, good food and the dessert ,a rapsberry cake was fresh and 😋 delicious!

Lovely, fresh food. Big portions and decent prices.

Very good. Amazing food and great friendly service. Food came quickly and our server Stan was lovely and very accommodating :). Will definitely be coming back again.
