Elif in Liverpool

Simple Quality Products Well Cooked. I had Lamb Kebab, my Wife had Chicken Kebab. Service was reasonable. Team Well Turned Out. Clean and Tidy Kitchen. We will return.

12 of us booked for a party, the staff where amazing, from the waitress that made us an item off the menu from 2 years ago to the guy (I think the manager) that sang and danced party birthday at the table. Amazing place

The most delicious food we’ve had in a long time. 10 out of 10 👌

We loved our first visit Staff friendly and polite Nice chilled atmosphere Clean tables and space Food choices good we ate from lunch menu served till 6pm Very tasty extra touches hot bread dips The meals where delicious served with rice salads Definitely recommend definitely visit again Prices are very reasonable for tasty delicious food

Food, service, value for money first class. Starter of meat balls and kebab main course were tasty and full of chargrill flavour. Would recommend and will return

The food here is outstanding. Very friendly atmosphere and great for family meals. Book in advance as it gets quite busy.

The food is very good, good service from the staff. Always reserve in advance. I give the staff 5 stars for their hospitality and professionalism. Also very delicious food and everything very clean.

We had a great selection of starters to kick off the meal. The Veggie kebab really hot the spot! and the service was welcoming and friendly

We ordered the meat plate for two, and the portions were generous—definitely a plus! The prices were reasonable, making it great value for the quality and quantity of food. I really liked the food and will definitely come back again. However, the service could use some improvement. While some of the staff were very attentive, others seemed less engaged. I hope they can find a better balance, as it would really enhance the overall experience.

Friendly, fully professional service, clean, excellent affordable food. A brilliant evening. Can’t wait to go again!

All round great place to visit. Portion sizes were massive. Everything really tasty. Went before 6pm, so the starters were free!

Very pleasant lunch in relaxed surroundings

It was really nice but the service was abit slow but they where really nice people and the food was lovely 😍

Excellent, the food is very good and the staff are great Thank you very much

Usually love this place. Not been in a while until today and the food wasn’t good ☹️ quite bland and rice was better before

Fab food, great service and very good prices!

Great food. Meat is really tender & cocktails are awesome. Been a couple of times & it does not disappoint. Big portions.

Staff very attentive as always. Gets really busy so we book. Food is locwly and portions are huge!

had lunch with a friend. two courses very reasonably priced. food good and staff good too worth a visit good restraunt enjoy

Extremely delicious food. Big portions. Better to book in advance

Bit utilitarian bience but outstanding food at a good menu price.

Great place to eat and good food

Me and my family have been coming here since it opened and I can honestly say we have never had a bad meal . The staff are exceptional they are more than friendly and accommodating . The food is fantastic .

Love Elif! My partner and I tend to have lunch there at least once a month.

What a gem of a restaurant!! Lovely atmosphere, the staff could not be more helpful or polite and the food is outstanding! We particularly love the mixed meat platter for 4.. delicious! Our new favourite spot- thank you!

Nice atmosphere, good food, decent prices.

I’ve been refused coffee and dessert. I was told to order main meal first. Apparently coffee with dessert don’t get served without main meal.

Elif never disappoints been going for years and years

Friendly staff very clean I got the salmon it was beautiful deffo going back.

Staff were amazing and the food was fantastic 100% recommend!

Went for the 1st time today with Daughter & BF, he's been before, so recommended at order the sharing platter for 3, the food was fab, really well seasoned, there was plenty of food, even the rice was lovely, well cooked, the service was great too. Before and after photos posted below! 😂

Great food and friendly staff. Their lunch deal is great!!

Food absolutely fantastic and good value for money.Service was polite, friendly and efficient. Not for people with a tiny appetite

I didn’t regret going to Elif restaurant. It is good to take your family and eat Halal food there. Anyone wants to enjoy a tasty, soft and delicious grill, just eat there. It is little bit more expensive than the other Halal food in Liverpool I know but it is really worth it because they add extra grill meat and chicken on the dish.

Amazing food, great service, lovely atmosphere. Extensive menu. Good place for families with children. Especially afternoon/early evening. Will definitely go back.

Lovely meal and very reasonable

I highly recommend this restaurant. Murat, who served me, was very friendly and welcoming. I was also very happy to have the gluten-free bread option alongside the sucuk. The food was very tasty and affordable. Teşekkür ederim!

Food was on point as always, the staff where very helpful, nothing was too much for them. 5 stars isn’t enough. We even got a couple of pieces of cake for our children on the house as it was too late by the time desert came around. All in all an amazing evening topped Off by the singing of happy birthday by the staff. 10/10

Our table of 3 people ordered chips, to which we were told that they would not be able to serve us if we did not order the main course first. OK, an extra £20, we ordered one, but the waiter said he wasn't sure we could order only one main course, maybe we needed a few, but of course he would check with the manager now! Turkish tea was not real Turkish tea, it looked more like it was brewed a second time.. Disappointed. For the sake of fairness, it should be said that the lamb was perfectly roasted. But never again after such greed, too many impressions for one meal!

Great and high quality food. Do not forget to book beforehand, especially at the weekends.

Great restaurant. Prefer the one on bold street but food excellent in both

We had the early bird menu, starter and main £14.95. The food was simple but executed perfectly. The portions are generous; I have a healthy appetite and could not quite finish. The place was packed by 6pm which is an indication of it's popularity. I highly recommend this restaurant.

I had a very bad experience here , I went with my husband and my kids , we ordered the family mix grill for 4 persons ,the food didn’t meet my expectations, the quantity was way too small for 4 persons , first I thought they served us the wrong order so I asked the waiter if this one for 3 or 4 persons, he said it’s for 4. A waste of £ 71.00 .very disappointing dish , overpriced.

Excellent great service 👏 👍 👌 lovely food great atmosphere 😀 👍 👌

Beautiful food, great service and a great atmosphere. Love the place. Great prices for some of the best food in the area. Lunchtime specials!!! The Salmon is out of this world.

Hands down the best restaurant in Liverpool! The food is so so tasty and the people are super lovely. Really recommend the hummus and the kuzu sis

Food was delicious, service was really good , price was fine considering the quality of the food I was happy to pay for it. I would recommend making a reservation to be on the safe side as it seems popular

Great food, good service ,reasonable prices

It's always really tasty ,freshly cooked food. Lovely service and atmosphere. Well done, guys.

Been here a few times, as I really enjoy the food they do. The aroma hits you before you get to see the meal. The lunchtime 2 course offer is well worth investing in.

Beautiful meal, 2 courses for £15. We had aubergine dip and feta salad, lamb shank and lamb kebab. Outstanding.

Both take away service and restaurant excellent!!! A must try

Absolutely amazing food, could not fault anything

Fabulous christmas day lunch at Elif with large family. Food and service as always was so good even though so busy. Can't thank staff enough for all their hard work. Would definately recommend any time of year.

L'un des meilleurs restaurants Turc que j'ai pu faire

Delicious, authentic food, great service

Great tasting food and amazing service. The food was very delicious.

Perfect every single time! Genuinely never had a bad meal here. Such lovely staff and the food is just perfect 👌. Great for veggies and child friendly.

Called in while visiting Liverpool, the waitresses were lovely and friendly. The place was bustling with people and the food was incredible. Well worth a visit.

I wasn’t able to get a booking in the Bond Street branch but thought we would give this a try. It was nowhere near as crammed or busy as Bond Street and was more brightly lit, I appreciated this. I also noticed the menu prices were cheaper than Bond Street and there’s no mandatory service charge. Service was fine also. Unfortunately the food didn’t meet my expectations. The mixed grill portion here is very small. We ordered a mixed grill for 4 people and this seemed the same size as a mixed grill for even 2 people in Bond Street. It came with ONE skewer of kebab to be shared amongst 4 people, this seems excessively miserly and not okay. The taste was also a bit bland and not seasoned as much as I expected. The food quality was fine and better than Turkish restaurants in Manchester but is not comparable to the Bond Street branch and I was still hungry after we had finished! Can’t recommend this place at all unfortunately considering what else is in Liverpool

Great place. Surpringly busy for weekday. Staff were great, very attentive and chatty. Food was superb throughout. Every dish we had was perfect, so fresh and full of flavour. We'll be back again soon

Great service very tasty food call and book a head as it's very busy that says it all for me 👌

Had the 2 course offer today £14.95, 😋 👍🤤went with a group of 12, booked short notice. Food was lovely and it came really quick. Everyone enjoyed it. Service staff very friendly.

The best Turkish restaurant I have visited. Food plentiful and delicious.

Absolutely top notch lunch again ! From the starters to the salad and bread and main meal everything was absolutely delicious This is my third review of this place (I don’t normally do 3 for one place!!) Definitely the best value lunch in Liverpool

Excellent service, great staff. Food was excellent

Good meals, Friendly Staff, Good Beer as well.

Wow. Beautiful food and atmosphere

My favourite restaurant of all times.. keep it up guys 👦 👏 💪 👌

La comida a sido exquisita pero la lubina al carbon increible. El trato, el servicio y el local explendidos. Hay que volver y pronto. Una experiencia nueva para mi en Liverpool. Buen trabajo equipo.

Lovely atmosphere, beautiful cuisine, really enjoyed ty.

Always get the mixed grill platter here

Went with Fleur, lovely scran and vibe

The food is so delicious but customer service absolutely sucks.

used to like it but am now boycotting it after its sister branch in Bold St doesn't allow solo diners. Greed at its finest. Cram as many tables in as possible and don't even allow prams or wheelchairs. This is definitely not Turkish hospitality as they are family oriented people. This is pure greed. Also the male staff stare uncomfortably at females.

Masses of food...all of it delicious! Friendly service and a great atmosphere. Enjoyed and will go again!

If I could give more star ratings inbound first time here today wow amazing Me and Mt girlfriend opt for the early bird menu 2 course for £15 and wow amazing food was amazing and it's the friendliest restaurant I been in a while u felt relaxed and enjoyed to chit chats u wasn't felt like u had to hurry up and eat food was quick but the quality was amazing im deffo coming again and thank you to all staff they do amazing job friendly and always smiling

Food and service was amazing. I ordered a kebab with hummus as starter they do a two course deal for around £12 so definitely great value for money.

Popped here for Saturday afternoon lunch whilst on break for work. Yet again service and food was impeccable. Had the chickpea and aubergine (think it’s called Iman Bauldi) to start which comes with lots of lovely Turkish bread to mop it up with. I then had a recommendation off the waitress which was Lamb in a type of bread with cheese and came with rice. Portion size was fantastic as was the quality and it also come with a lovely crunchy side salad. £12.95 for 2 course … what’s not to like. Be back soon 👍

Great food and great staff. We had the early evening meal which was excellent value.

My son took me for my birthday meal, I have been there many times and food has always been lovely. I ordered Lamb shank cant tell you how disappointed I was it was tasteless and very soft no texture to it, in a watery tomato sauce, I felt it had been just boiled. The meal my son ordered from the Charcoal grill was delicious (he gave me a taste) so it wasn’t all bad. And the dog enjoyed what I took home! the bone and the meat I didn’t eat.

I enjoyed one of the best meals ever at Elif. The salmon was delicious and the sauce was superb. The server was friendly and efficient. Everything I tasted was perfect. I highly recommend this lovely Turkish barbecue restaurant and will definitely return.

Great place with tasty food at reasonable prices and good service

Great meal with attentive and good staff. Really enjoyed our visit after visiting Lark Lane in Liverpool again for a few (!) drinks.

Tasty and big portion.. love it.

Good food is a great location worth a visit 😋

What a lovely meal. I will be back

Again great afternoon with family for daughters birthday they have a lunch menu only 13 pound something which we weren't expecting on a Sunday afternoon it was so nice staff atmosphere and price great defo go again it's only smallish but plenty off room atmosphere lovely thank you for a lovely afternoon and for doing daughters cake 🎂

Great place in a superb area of trad food and drink and shops

Food was lovely but my sea bass was over cooked .. staff very efficient but customer interaction could be improved I have been before and the fish was perfect and the waitress was very friendly ..

Good food and venue. But very loud on a Saturday with so many people talking in a smallish space. Would go back

We went for the karisik as the main course, the 4 person option it was off the charcoal menu, it was so Good, the service and all the food was very good, it’s lovely set out you can see the meat being cooked, the tahini and bread and liver and onions good too We will definitely be back

Il migliore ristorante turco di tutta Liverpool. Personale super gentile, location accogliente, servizio molto veloce. Cibo di estrema qualità, ottimo di sapore. La migliore cena che abbia mai fatto in vita mia. Prezzi ottimi. Sicuramente ci ritornerò presto.

Great food , great staff and good prices in a vibrant part of Liverpool,and

Delicious food, Bayti is so good, everyone really enjoyed their meal excellent service and value would highly recommend

First time at Elif but we will return next time in Liverpool. Food was good and very tasty with friendly staff.

We had a variety of dishes from the lunchtime offer (extended till late into the afternoon) and was not disappointed! From grilled fish to the lamb shank and kofta everything was spot on ! I visited the lark lane branch last in 2016 and glad the standards have kept up while keeping the prices competitive ! Only gripe was one the waiters (short guy with distinctively short tie) was quite rude as I’d told him we were waiting for parties in the bathroom, so didn’t want to order just yet. Then just ignored us all afternoon like we’d insulted him and had to call for another waiter, yet was happy chappy around other tables!

At the start, I used to be the best in Liverpool for Turkish cuisine. Not sure if a change of chef or management. Absolutely not the same at all. The flavour changed substantially. The staff are lovely thought.

Always good food and friendly atmosphere. Very good value for money and fast service.
