Limassol in St. Helens

Delicious authentic Greek food, high quality, very reasonable prices, very polite staff. Highly recommended for a date night that will be memorable.

Not eaten Greek this good since I lived in Cyprus. 🤤😊

First visit here. Had lovely food and drinks and host was passionate about the food and gave good advice. Keep up the good work!

Having recently returned from a fantastic holiday in Kefalonia, we were craving the cuisine we had had over there. It's not our first visit to Limassol, but we had never written a review. If you want to experience the excellent customer care and attention that Greek hospitality is renowned for, you need to visit. The food is exceptionally good, prepared with care , and there is an excellent menu which is reasonably priced Thank you, Limassol staff. we will be back soon

Food spot on as always. Always comes fresh and hot , staff could not be more attentive always happy and smiling x a mistake was made with one order and seriously it could not be apologised for enough, it is a busy place and mistakes will be made as with everywhere.

My wife had sheftalies with potatos and salad,i had pork afelia with potatos salad and houmous.Followed by mellon and orange chunks on the house.All food was well prepared and lots of it.Authentic Cypriot dishes which were as good as any restaurant in Cyprus.Plus we had live greek music which added to the atmosphere,service too was exelent.Well worth a try and you will not be disappointed.

Lovely food as always! I ordered a takeaway and had the chicken kebab and the hummus. Everything was hot, fresh and very tasty!! Would defiantly recommend for anyone to come and try the food here

What an evening, live Bouzouki great food and service. It's always fantastic food served by friendly staff. After a few keos finally had the courage to do the zorba dance and had laugh doing that. My go to dish is kleftiko and partner had chicken ala creme. Will be back again and definitely when they have live music.

It’s always great food and perfect service. Good options for kids meals they could barely finish their ice cream at the end. Keftedes with homemade sauce and king prawn skordates always spot on.

Stifado with hand cut chips and skordo stoumbi with chips and tahini as a side. The food it's always fresh and very tasty and it's served by amazing staff.

I’ve been visiting this restaurant for many years and it never disappoints. Always a warm welcome, excellent service and the food is second to none.

Amazing! We ate here on a fortuitous visit to St.Helens and will definitely be coming again. The food was excellent (especially the lamb) and the service was friendly and professional. I also enjoyed the atmosphere thanks to the authentic Greek music; the dessert was just the cherry on top! We ordered 'Mixed cold starter' and 'Meat to share' for two, plus 'Baklava', which turned out to be huge, and a chocolate cake.

The meat sharer was fantastic. Several meats all cooked perfectly. My friends also loved the lamb on the bone and the beef casserole. Can't wait to try their other stuff

Another fabulous evening out at the Limassol. Sadly we only get to visit every few months, but the food is excellent ( we always have the meze). The staff are very friendly and courteous. It is slow paced, so really enjoyable as there is so much to eat. We love it as you aren’t rushed. I pre booked and requested our favourite table too, so another bonus.

Went without booking, staff happy to accommodate us,as they always are.Food was excellent,obviously freshly prepared and very tasty.Excellent service as always by the attentive waiters, good choice of drinks and an extensive choice of food.Very good value for money,especially in the current economic climate.One of my favourite eateries, the chef's specials are invariably excellent.Happy to recommend to anyone thinking of paying a visit,though I must point out that the restaurant is up a flight of stairs and ,sadly, unsuitable for disabled patrons.⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Beautiful food and the staff are great

Had an absolutely amazing meal here this afternoon food was delicious… the people that work there are such lovely people had a young lad having a trial shift today and he done brilliant job❤️ can’t recommend this place enough honestly was amazing from beginning to end *****

OMG I’ve just had the best Stifado, ever and I have had many in Greece and Cyprus. Every one else loved their dinner too. Limassol thank you 🙏

Amazing food. We visited as a family of four for my son's 18th Birthday meal 25.07.24. We booked on the day and was informed there would be live music and singing that evening. The food was amazing as was the entertainment. They made the experience even better by singing Happy birthday to my son, presenting him a piece of birthday cake from the staff and entertainers. My wife and Son was then taught to dance to the Greek music again showing the personal touch by the staff and entertainment. Overall the experience was amazing as was the food. most definitely we will be visiting again in the future.

Not been to this restaurant for many years but so glad we did after reading the reviews. Firstly the waiter Mark was so lovely and attentive but not over the top . The food was gorgeous and so fresh , thanks for making our anniversary special.

The food here has to be one of the best on the area. Have not been for a while but definitely will be back soon. It o e of my parents favourite, they have been going for years.

Absolutely amazing cuisine, genuinely authentic. Fresh and flawless... first time visit but definitely not my last.. would 1000 recommend. And the service impeccable.. and thankyou for the ouzo.. was a lovely and fresh experience.. FANTASTIC!!!

Quite good Greek/Cypriot restaurant, there were some very good things, like the sheftalies, the moussaka was decent. Not everything was as good, e.g. from the mixed grill the loukaniko was just average (at least for Greek/Cypriot standards) and the lamb chop disappointing. I'd give it another go as I don't think there is something better in the area for this cuisine.

Fantastic food, the food is really lovely, well presented and served hot. This restaurant has a great atmosphere and the staff are really lovely and welcoming, very attentive and polite. I would highly recommend a visit and it would not be your last.

Excellent evening for our 43rd wedding anniversary dinner the food was cooked to perfection . We both loved the quiet and relaxed atmosphere thank you for a lovely evening

Going to St Helens? Go here!!! It was amazing!! I travelled from Bolton/Blackrod for a gig on Friday with my dad and sister and decided to eat here. I can honestly say I would (and will) make the journey just to eat here again it was exceptional! All the staff were very friendly, it was clean and tidy, lovely music and the food was just so good!! If your curious we had kleftiko (slow roasted lamb on the bone) Dad had mixed grill limassol 🤤🤤

Never been before, but would definitely recommend. Food was delicious and service was spot on. Went early on a Thursday evening so quiet, but shouldn’t be.

The selection of food was great with even the fussiest of eater able to be accommodated. I had a crème chicken which was excellent. The staff were friendly, the atmosphere cordial and the environment made it feel like we were on holiday. We will be going back and have no hesitation in recommending the restaurant to our friends.

Had a lovely evening at The Limassol, the waiter was very welcoming, polite and attentive. The food was exceptional. The restaurant had a lovely ambience, the background music was greek which was lovely. The restaurant was absolutely spotlessly clean. Would definitely recommend.

Great food very friendly staff would highly recommend eating here no complaints We will definitely be returning soon!

Just had a gorgeous meal at Limassol! Lovely & attentive staff. Will definitely be returning. Thank you xx

Great authentic food, friendly service & great value for money.

Very welcoming atmosphere, the lamb was the best I’ve had, Will be coming back :)

Amazing tasting food. The quality of the meat was to a high standard. Did expect to see more chips but on the plus side they were homemade and had a very nice variation of salt seasoning on top. Glad my friend took me here I will definitely come back again with more room in the belly for a starter.

Ten of us tonight all enjoyed fabulous food, drinks and service, very relaxed atmosphere for a 70th birthday party! Starters were amazing, we were glad four of us shared main meals as there was plenty of food.

Always a great meal, and atmosphere Staff are great and go the extra mile. Food always perfect. Would recommend highly.

Outstanding service and quality of food. Authentic food with great flavours and staff cannot do enough for you. Highly recommended

Not been here for a while and can’t wait to go back already. The food was so fresh and clean absolutely beautiful delicious food done well.

I've been coming here for a number of years now. The food is always fantastic and the staff are always very polite. My go to is the chefs special kebab. Chicken, Pork and Lamb, what more could you ask for? Absolutely delicious food. Recently increased prices slightly, but worth every penny. You won't find better value for money when it comes to Greek food. Definitely recommend.

The atmosphere in here is great, it feels like you’re on holiday in Greece and the service is amazing. The food had great such amazing flavours and tasted just like the food in Greece. Came here for the first time tonight for a family meal and it was worth every penny, highly recommend as it’s a different experience compared to chained restaurants!

Chicken kebab ok, but dont ever have the chicken wings they are cold..... Not nice

We were the only ones in due to us going dead on 6pm at the end of the early menu session time but honestly felt like a holiday atmosphere at that we weren’t alone and uncomfortable. The food was lovely. We were well looked after by Mark - what a lovely place. Super clean too and the cutlery was polished which is a big bear of mine when you get dirty ones so loved it here. We didn’t even need to filter the pictures of the food it was just lovely 🥰 We took our 5 month old and he loved kicking away and smiling listening to all the Greek music.

What a treat! Not been for a few years, for no reason other than money and time. Lovely warm welcome, heating was on ( it was very cold out). Ordered the meze as always, it didn’t disappoint. Served at our pace, the food was fresh, hot and delicious. Friendly, efficient service. Definitely one to return to soon. Toilets were spotless too!

Had a fantastic meal here. Husband and I shared a mezze which was absolutely gorgeous. So much food and all piping hot. The staff are so friendly, attentive & helpful. I can't wait to go back.

Go here on a regular basis food is always gorgeous and service is great ,5 stars everytime

Went with friends and was a happy costumer at the end of the night. Food was fresh and tasted really good. The chicken kebab and stoumbi were delicious. The staff was attending when you needed them and more than happy to help with choices with a big smile. I live a little far but will definitely be back and please if you havent been go and check it out it will be worth it.

Visited the place on Saturday night, was greeted by smiling staff. The food is always really good at this place, we had Mix Cold to share and Kalamari. As mains Afelia and Sheftalies. The dips are really good with warm bread. Afelia is really tender and Sheftalies were juicy and everything tasted fresh. A special thank you to Alanya for a memorable night. Would highy recommend the place.

Just like our last visit in August, food, service, everything stunning! Cannot fault anything. A little Gem of a restaurant in St Helens!

2nd time this year for a celebration and its perfect! Wonderful staff, great chef, very helpful waiting staff. Food is just perfect! Great little gem of a place!

Wow outstanding Faultless. Food and service is great. We ordered a steak and it is one of then best we have had. Loaded with onions and mushrooms and cooked to perfection. Service outstanding asking if everything is ok with meals and keeping your glass full at all times. Desserts are delicious if you can fit one in. Would highly recommend and will definitely return. Thanks you Sarah & Mark

Thanks everyone at Limassol for making my birthday a special night. The food was amazing. The steak was out of this world

Lovely restaurant. Food and service were fantastic. Staff were so welcoming.

Would highly recommend this restaurant food and service superb. It was my first of what I'm sure will be many visits

We visited the Limassol last Saturday night for the first time in many years and cannot believe we left it that long! We ordered starters and mains with a little assistance in respect of side dishes, and stupidly ordered a portion of garlic bread. This was because the starters, which were fantastic, and the mains were so filling, we felt guilty for leaving some of it. For starters I had traditional sausage and my partner the filled filo pastry. For mains, we had moussaka and a lamb and garlic stew. The food was beautifully cooked, flavoursome and substantial. We had a Cypriot brandy and coffee as well as drinks and the bill was very reasonable. Great service all round and will definitely not leave it so long next time!

Been a while since we have been. Food was lovely, but an extra £1.50 in the prices for rice or chips is a bit cheeky when it's standard procedure in most Greeks. Would return but only on the early evening menu.

As always great greek food cooked expertly all very fresh 🇬🇷

Wow 🤩 amazing meal here tonight! Kleftico was better than Cyprus & the service was excellent. We will return soon. Didn’t catch the waiter’s name but he was really lovely!

Always been very quite here and I'm not to sure why. Me and the wife had a 3 corse meal each and drinks total was £108 I don't think that's to bad to be honest food is always lovely but the menu is a little complicated to understand what your actual ordering non the less very nice and we will come back

Had a lovely evening. The food was beautiful and the service was outstanding. Very welcoming. Well done!

Been coming here longer than I care to remember,and never once been disappointed.....superb food,lovelywelcoming and helpful staff,and great service in a very pleasant ambience. Good vfm in this day and age.Highly recommended. 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗

Warm welcome and a great host, not pushy nor hanging around just there if you needed him, Great beer wine was nice but expensive, All the meals we had were all served hot everything was lovely and authentic from the kebabs to the full Mez meal. We all enjoyed the food and restaurant and would happily return with more family next time Highly recommend

Shame the rice and chips are now charged as side dishes to conceal the price increase on top of the price increase for meals. Obviously a result of the UK mad cost of living increases.

The meze platter for a minimum of 2 people was excellent value for money. I highly recommend the potato salad, hummus and chicken wings.

Lovely food, great service and reasonable prices

First time I went to this resturant, amazing service, food amazing, lovely/friendly interactive staff. Nice decor, really great set out.

I have been here a few times and its always been amazing. Two kids who actually finish the plate and have space for icecream. Afelia with Sheftalies its what makes me come back again and Kleftico for the wife served by friendly smily staff. Would recomend

Delicious food, service could not have been any better & the atmosphere transports you to a traditional taverna in Cyprus, just lovely!

Had such a lovely Sunday night at the Limassol with friends... Such delicious food and fab drinks and really friendly waiters and staff. Not been for a long time but We will be back! Thank you x

Haven’t been here before and was initially impressed, really clean and tidy and staff that very nice and friendly. We were a little disappointed with the food, no alternative offered for “Gluten Free” and our dishes, although tasty, were nothing great - no enhancement to...

Authentic Greek/Cypriot food, attentive staff. The food is delicious.

We visited as a group of 8 to celebrate a birthday. Mark was really welcoming, friendly and attentive and helped to make our experience. We all ordered mezedes and it was fantastic. All the courses were well spaced so we weren't over-faced. The food was...

As good as always food and service were excellent 🙂

Lovely mid week meal with our son for his birthday with the in-laws. Brilliant service, food was freshly cooked and delicious! Wish we lived closer or we'd be visiting more often! Highly recommended.

Excellent food, full of flavour & service with a smile

The best by far, all dishes are authentic and the taste brings lots of memories! Everything cooked to perfection! Very helpful and knowledgeable waiter! Congratulations to the chef! Will visit again for sure

Have been visiting this restaurant in the centre of St. Helens for many years. Always just as good as last time. Home cooked Cypriot/Greek food. Always freshly cooked for customer. Large portions of good quality food. Affordable priced. Early doors 2 course menu served until...

We have been going to Limasol for many years as a couple, they never dissapoint. The food was fantastic and the staff are very friendly and helpful. You are always made to feel welcome and comfortable. I'm looking forward to our next visit.

The food was nice we had the meze which had some good dishes. The service was a bit hit and miss though. We were offered fresh plates between courses then food came but we had no plates similarly on another course we had plates and no cutlery. The staff didn't seem to communicate so often the reply we got was ohh I'm not sure let me check. It wasn't overly busy but it was hard to hold a conversation due to a very loud group of 6 people on another table which spoilt the overall atmosphere. Overall a nice meal

Chose to visit here purely on the reviews on Trip Advisor and despite negativity from the taxi driver when coming into the area we thoroughly enjoyed our meal. Great choice of food and very tasty. The staff were friendly and helpful when making our choices...

Lovely food. Friendly staff. Nice atmosphere. Good service. Will go again.

Arrived for an impromptu meal; what a choice! Great ambiance, excellent food and fantastic service. Will definitely be visiting again and would recommend a visit.

I have always come to Limassol since being 16. I introduced my partner to thw restaurant and it is now hes favourite. We decided to treat the kids to tea out after a good week. They've never been before and they're so fussy. But, let...

Every time we pop up for a Saints match we book a table here. Simple reason, it’s fantastic food and lovely service.

First time coming here. The food was amazing and the servers are really friendly. Will definitely be back!

Amazing food, lovely service, friendliest people & the best time!

The atmosphere and the service was really great at Limassol Restaurant. As we were a big group we went for the Mezedes (greek banquet) order, and were not disappointed! The food was really excellent and we will be going back.

Went tonight for the first time, had an amazing meal staff where so friendly cannot wait to go back going to take the whole family for my birthday. I was really impressed with how clean it was absolutely spotless.

Really enjoyed our 1st visit. The food was really lovely. The wine went down well. The staff were really nice. The gentleman who also served us was really helpful too. Would recommend. We will be back. With friends in tow

Quiet (to be expected nearing the end of January) but lovely, tasty food! Good selection of Greek and Cypriot food and drink, service was excellent.

First time we have been here. Really enjoyed it from start to finish. Authentic Cypriot food which was good quality with excellent service. Couldn't fault it. Thank you.

Called with wife,daughter and her family,and had a lovely evening....superb food as always,great service from a lovely,patient young lady,and the customary unique Limassol,ambience. Been coming here for years and never once been disappointed...the staff have changed over the years,but the staff have always been very...

Had my Birthday treat here tonight absolutely fabulous food was delicious as always. Great choice and service excellent Limassol never fails for great food and good value and plenty of it. Love going will soon be back. Thanks again for a lovely evening and my birthday wishes which was unexpected.

Way way overpriced. The meat sharing plater for 2 was ridiculously small. It would have been a suitable starter but not a main. Very expensive aswell. It didn’t come with any sides or sauces so by the time you have added all of that on the bill soon adds up. Probably the most expensive place in St Helens for a beer aswell. £5.95 for a bottle of Keo.

We had an amazing meal at Limassol tonight! This was authentic Greek and some if the best food we’ve eaten in years! The service was excellent, they regularly checked that we were happy and didn’t need anything and were very welcoming. Highly recommend!!

I was asked to give a review, apologies but I am going to be completely honest here. The beef soup I had was the best thing, very good, everything about it was perfect. Moussaka is nice, lightly favored, not too oily or salty which is more suited to my personal taste, looks home-cooked style, but it’s a bit bland half way through, it could be more special. Most importantly, for the price I would expect the salad dressing that looks more like proper restaurant quality salad dressing rather than one that looks like McDonald’s side. Seafood soup was not so nice, seafood tasted frozen. Another main meal was the red wine beef stew, as much as we wanted to, we couldn’t appreciate it unfortunately, red wine tasted overwhelming, the bitterness was brought out, and it made the extremely lean beef even tougher than usual. Rice was good value. Nice and big portion, fair price.

Try the meze - not cheap, but really nice and plenty of it. Some 20 different items to share and enjoy

I have been up all night with stomach cramps, so I really hope it was just me and a bad reaction, because the food & service was top notch. Was in town to see the RLWC and wanted something different from chain eateries. Never booked, but no issue getting a table. Two waiting staff were attentive, and the food, at the time of eating was spot on. If in St Helens for any reason, I would give it another try. Hopefully to get 5 stars across the board.

Just love this restaurant took our good friends. They weren't disappointed 😋👍

Food excellent as always. Been many a time and will return.

Came here for a pre theatre meal with family. Absolutely fantastic food , the staff were very friendly and polite ,definitely recommended
