Defne Turkish BBQ Restaurant in Liverpool

Made to feel very welcome excellent menu and staff. The portions are massive. We ate from the earlybird menu and the doggy bags we took home were more than enough for 2 the following day. Will certainly be returning

Superb mixed grill. A great off the cuff find. Staff were very friendly.

So welcoming staff, food delicious 🤤

Fabulous meal once again. Mixed kebab was beautiful, and the service as ever brilliant from our waitress Lori who went over and above. If you haven't visited, give it a go you won't regret it. They also do a weekday early bird menu which is really good value. Will be back.

Really good service from Lory who was very friendly and accommodating. Food was really tasty too - very good portion sizes and lots of variety.

Lovely food, the staff can't do enough for you and are so friendly. If you have ever gone past this place and thought you need to try it, please do. You won't regret it.

What a fabulous restaurant and Lory was amazing giving great advice and very helpful. Nothing was too much and we were able to choose our choice of music which is quite rare for a restaurant .

Second time here and not disappointed. Food really is top drawer. We had the value menu before 6pm which is really good value for money.

Went with friends on Friday... really good food and service. Very reasonably priced. Excellent..

Lovely food and even better service. Staff very accommodating and friendly. We will definitely come back. Thank you.

Always like to visit this restaurant. Food is great. A good selection. Really friendly service. Nothing is too much trouble. Prices are reasonable & for us, it's fairly local. Our teenagers like to come here as there are no dress code restrictions. Wheelchair accessible toilets. There was a wheelchair user there yesterday.

Best service and food amazing xxx

I have been to this place a fev times the food is great stuff is friendly i wouldnt find anywhere line this place even in turkey, definitely recomend it to anyone! will be back shortly

The food was phenomenal. The waitress was very friendly and knowledgeable. I would eat here all the time if I could. What an amazing dinner.

Brilliant restaurant, come here a lot it’s a hidden gem! Foods great and start are nice as well love the mixed grill

Love this place. Probably been through the whole menu by now but food is always delicious and service is prompt. Staff are lovely too.

Lovely authentic food. Good value. It was nice to be able to see the food bring prepared as the kitchen is glass walled.

Great food, decent price. Highly recommend

We booked for a large party, with a 2 year old that won't sit still....we booked early on a Sunday so we wouldn't be too disruptive and we had an absolutely lovely meal. The food was delicious, large portions, very reasonably priced; the service was exemplary and we were made to feel very welcome (especially the little guy!) and the atmosphere was perfect for us. A little quieter (given we were early birds) but very relaxed and friendly. It was my mum's birthday and they even brought her a slice of cake. We also had some issues (our end) with the booking because family were travelling - and they were really accommodating and kind (when I got the date wrong!) Highly recommend.

Went here for family meal on Easter Sunday. Must say it was a fantastic experience. Food was delicious, staff were really friendly and attentive. Would definitely, highly recommend a visit 👍👍👍👍👍

What a lovely little Gem, the food was lovely, the staff where very friendly. I could highly recomend it.

We came for an early Mother’s Day meal. The food was Superb! We got the hummus to start and it was amazing, We got the mixed platter for our mains, WOW! It was beautiful! The kids meals were lovely too. Amazing friendly staff, Kate was our server she was great with the kids and was so lovely, helpful and promp with our service. Nothing was to much trouble. We will definitely be back! If you’re looking for fresh, delicious food this will be right up your street! We will definitely be returning thankyou so much all at Defne.

Great food but very quiet so we got first class service. Been a few times and will definitely be going again!

2nd time we have been here now and it was as good as the 1st time. Lovely staff relaxed atmosphere and most of all good value for money food nothing overcooked all tasty will definitely be back again thanks :)

Really enjoyed it here. I went last night for the first time and I will be going back. The food was lovely and as were the staff. I got the halloumi kebab and it came with fried veg, rice and salad. I would get this again but then I’d want to try the other stuff on the menu. Lovely.

A fantastic restaurant. The food and service were first class. Couldn't recommend it highly enough. Katie and Anna who looked after us were great. They were so friendly and couldn't do enough for us.

I was at a lose end with a couple of hours to kill and was starving so decided to treat myself to a Turkish, I’ve never dined alone so was a bit apprehensive however the 2 lovely ladies that greeted me made me feel at...

We were recommended to come here and it didn’t disappoint Food was amazing portion sizes are huge We got complimentary bread and Hummus Staff were so welcoming and helpful advising about the menu We will definitely be returning would highly recommend

The staff were all friendly! The food… very bland. King prawns as a starter - wouldn’t recommend. Would I visit again? Possibly if other restaurants were fully booked.

Food was amazing service especially from Kate was perfect such a friendly polite and bubbly girl. Kate brings the service to a high profile service deffo coming back for food and to see Kate made a new friend xx

Been here a few times over the years. Not been for a few years but my Adana was full of grizzle. Not sure if they are using cheap mince but it put me off going back again. There are much better Turkish restaurants in Liverpool.

Great food, great staff and very well priced I would definitely go again and would recommend it to any one who is looking to try somewhere new

Our first visit and what can I say other than Epically Amazing!!! ... Amazing food. Amazing service. Amazing cocktails. Would definitely recommend and we'll definitely be back!

Food is always amazing! The staff are always really nice and attentive. We have been multiple times and we would definitely recommend!

Really good (as always) we always get the chicken kebab and it’s always cooked well and tastes fresh, there are loads of Turkish places but this one in my opinion is by far the best - never had a bad meal here in 6 years...

We came for a late lunch / early dinner on NY Eve. Everything, from making the reservation thru to end of our visit was PERFECT! The food was wonderful for all 7 of our party (starters and mains). The flavours were fantastic. The seafood casserole...

Love the food here and good kids menu too. We have had both takeaway and sat in and just as good whichever we do

Delicious food , Lamb shank was fall off the bone - don't eat before you come seriously !!! Staff attentive and friendly .

We visited as the restaurant had great reviews and they were not wrong. Lovely authentic Turkish food, service was fast and the staff were fabulous! We would highly recommend.

after reading good reviews found the food pretty ordinary - got mixed grill -basic with no sauces or complimentary bread they were extra !!! Starter of garlic mushrooms was slop looked and tasted like tinned or frozen with a sloppy garlic sauce poured over the top won't be rushing back

Amazing restaurant. Just wandered in off the street during a business trip and found this gem of a restaurant. The staff were friendly and the food was absolutely out of this world. The food was incredibly authentic, plentiful and super tasty. My fish kebab was...

Absolutely delicious food every time. I’m autistic, so consistency is very important for me. The starters, mains, cocktails, and desserts have all been top notch, and the staff are so wonderfully friendly. Aintree’s had great take-out places for a while, but not really any stand-out...
