Zorbas in Liverpool

Loved the meal service was excellent

Felt like in Karen’s diner. Not sure if this is the part of the game, but it was hard to communicate with the waiter, totally opposite of the hospitality you would expect, felt like persona non grata

The owners are wonderful people, warm and helpful and especially Ms. Louisa who served me delicious dishes and served me with zeal and humanity by preparing a homemade and motherly soup for the son who had a problem with his stomach!

On a very rainy night the welcome couldn’t have been warmer. Great food, service and atmosphere. Live music was a bonus, lovely Greek decor inside. Will be back. Next time I’m home👍

Very friendly and helpful staff. Delicious food! A pleasant place with nice atmosphere.

Everything was perfect here. Such a friendly place - and the food was incredible. Will definitely be back.

A fantastic family run restaurant. Food is delicious and generous. Good live entertainment that is not intrusive. Staff are friendly and attentive. Would love to return

Had a fantastic meal for my parents 50th anniversary here. It was a Saturday night and the service and food were excellent.

Service was very good, however the food is very average and bland. Ordered Meze with lots of starters but main was 1 meat ball, a small chop and a skewer. No sides. £28 each. Expensive for what we got.

Lovely family run restaurant with excellent food. Son and daughter in law had stafafo which they said was one of the best they’ve had, husband was more the happy with his kleftiko and my sea bass was delicious. A carafe of house red wine was more than acceptable and very reasonably priced. When it came to dessert time Mama came over and told us what there was, we settled for balkava and kataifi. Thoroughly enjoyable meal.

Lovely, family owned restaurant that serves excellent food with warm hospitality. They took good care of customers. The night we were there, they had live music, traditional greek, of course.

The best restaurant I've been to in a long time! Louisa was so welcoming, the food was fantastic, service was spot on. The guitarist was a lovely touch, I felt like I was on holiday while I was in there. I will be returning soon.

Beware that even though you can book online on the restaurants website and you get an email back confirming your booking, apparently this does not work and they won't have a booking. They fitted us in and the the food was good, but they need to turn off bookings on the website if they don't work.

By far, the best Greek food in Liverpool.

From the minute you walk in you get a warm friendly reception. It has a genuine feel to it and the food is excellent. Meat skewers are really good and Moussaka was delicious, along with all the accompaniment. Restaurant has a really nice relaxing vibe and a great place for a long chat with the family.

Best Greek food I have tasted since going to Greece. The owners were especially welcoming and couldn't do enough for us. We will definitely be back.

Excellent food and great service from staff for my friends birthday. Louise is such a great hostess. Added bonus of a guitar singer . A bit of Greek dancing by us too. All in all a fabulous night. I had kleftico mains and meatballs starter. All very tasty.

Passed this place so many times and never been in...Wish I had done! The food, service, cleanliness everything was great. Great for gluten free options and we're good with my toddler too and she enjoyed the authentic live music!

Lovely service and so friendly. Great menu we chose the mezedes so loads mixed dips and bread, greek salad, vine leaves, meatballs, kebabs, calamari - added bonus was bouzouki player on Saturday night so fab atmosphere

We saw this on a you tube review and really liked the look of it. As a big "greek food" lover I couldn't wait..... and I wasn't disappointed! We ordered the £28 meal where you get samplers from both the starters and mains. It was delicious. The portions were large. We ended up taking a full box of food home with us. Three of us have allergies (x2 nuts and x1 gluten) and these were very well catered for. There isn't a kids menu which we knew before we went in. We liked the fact that there was no chicken nuggets and chips or sausage and mash. It just wouldn't be authentic if there was. Our daughter had a portion of fresh meatballs in tomato, garlic and wine from the starter menu and then had my pitta bread and some of our olive and feta salad. She loved it. To top it off our daughter was given a free ice cream cone. Fantastic! The chap playing the guitar was great and the atmosphere authentic and homely. I would definately suggest asking to sit at the back of the resteraunt where you are not sat in the windows. We live in middlesbrough and definately would go again if back in the area x

Great traditional food. Beer sensible priced.

Food was amazing, and staff went out of their way to help celebrate the big birthday we were there for.

Brilliant restaurant, really enjoyed the food, it was lovely and we couldn't believe how much meat there was. The restaurant is family run and the staff were fab and we had a great time. Places like this make me wonder why people are so obsessed with bland, overpriced chain restaurants, well definitely be back.

Nice restaurant - girls who served us were very smiley and friendly but the manager not so much. Good choice of food on the menu and myself and my two friends enjoyed what they had but I was a bit disappointed with my Greek salad. The feta was lovely, but most of the dish was lettuce with cucumber, tomatoes and red onion … but just four olives - all with stones. Whilst nice, it felt overpriced at £9.50

My absolute favourite restaurant in Liverpool. I've been countless times, gorgeous food, that is both stodgy & delicious. With an amazing quality and quantity of food. You will never leave hungry. Authentic Cyprus food served by wonderful staff, who are always so polite. The atmosphere is brilliant you feel like you're in Greece, and just like Greece they don't rush you at all. A lovely restaurant that is a must visit.

One of Liverpool's oldest greek restaurants. We had an enjoyable meal. The chicken kebabs were very tasty.

Best Greek restaurant in Liverpool! Warm and welcoming

Family run Greek restraunts. Great food and drink and friendly staff.

Really enjoyed our meal at Zorbas last night. A great atmosphere, excellent food, traditional music and fun dancing.

Wonderful meal, busy busy night perhaps made service a little slow but did not harm meal. Only reason saying 4 stars on service is me being picky on wine. Wine was not great and sorry did not deserve a £3 price never mind £30

A lovely family run restaurant with very tasty food. A must visit when you're in Liverpool.

Absolute superstars I came late and was fed well..thank you. Lovelly people ill be back

We happened on the amazing restaurant by chance. The meat dishes were very tender and portions were big. The staff were very welcoming and friendly. This year is Xorba's 50th anniversary.

If you want to feel like you've been dropped into a family run taverna on a Greek island, made to feel like you're welcome and eat and drink well at a very reasonable price, zorbas is the place to be. We love it.

Warm welcome and seated at our table on bottom right of Restaurant My starters of squid was undercooked and chewy but salad n dip was lovely My Main was lamb shoulder or shank cooked so beautifully and melted in my mouth when I ate it served with chunky chips & Rice Washed down with Lge bottle of Keo Would Recommend but shame about my starters but staff and owners were so very friendly and delivered a great service.

Called at 9.30pm and was immediately shown to a table.... authentic Greek dishes that will not disappoint... Highly recommend the Stolen Lamb or the Daz Chicken Kebab... both meals were fantastic... Great atmosphere with live greek music and great hosts... very friendly restaurant

Fabulous place, Fabulous food, staff are amazing! Went to celebrate mums 70th Birthday. They made it really special. Fantastic xx

Visited Zorbas last night to celerbrate my Mums 70th Birthday. The food was amazing, the staff were brilliant and made my Mums birthday one to remember. Well worth a visit. Definitely a 10/10. Well done!!

We turned up, orders were taken. There was an atmosphere between the male and female serving us. Throughout the meal “having words” over our table. The male server had a particularly bad attitude. Tutting and rolling eyes when asking for drinks, getting upset when I didn’t answer when he shouted ‘spinach pie’ as I was expecting him to shout ‘spanikopita’ when I asked if it was spanikopita he abruptly said ‘no it’s spinach pie. Having read it as spanikopita on the menu, having eaten it myself in Greece, having made it myself for the last 20 years, I know what it is. When he brought the food, he did somethin I was so shocked at I literally had no words. My step daughter was sat next to me. He put our tray of food on her head while he removed each dish, she didn’t move, she just tapped me on the leg to tell me. I was stunned into silence. We ate our over priced, below expectation food and just couldn’t wait to leave. I think it’s a shame this place seems to have gone down hill but unfortunately won’t be going back.

Really enjoyed the food we ordered the mixed platter only one detail we would have loved a portion of there homemade chips .

Top food and friendly staff would recommend!

Excellent food and service. Company was great

Finally got to go to this fabulous restaurant. I was not disappointed. The welcome and friendly staff, including the owner, were amazing from start to finish. You can really tell that they love their business and their customers. Then there is the food. There are many adjectives for delicious food, and I could use them all. It was wonderful. Highly recommended. I will be going again.

I 1st went to Zorbas back in the 80's when it was just a small friendly place with great food now 40 yrs later the staff, restaurant and menu may have grown but it's still my 1st place to go for the best Greek food. Well done for keeping the standard so high for so long

Everything exceptional! Delicious food, our waitress very kind and friendly and the conversation with Louisa very interesting and pleasant and her desserts SPECTACULAR!

Perfect 🤩 The staff was amazing thank you 🙏

A fantastic family run traditional taverna that's as good now as it was when we started going there fifty years ago. Lovely food, friendly service and terrific value. Essential dining experience in the heart of Liverpool. Highly recommended.

first time in about 30 years, great food,great atmosphere, really well priced, will definitely be going back again

Zorbas was recommended to us by a local friend and we enjoyed our Saturday night dinner very much - Luisa and her team do a superb job of looking after everyone. Portions were big and food was tasty - I am vegetarian and there were lots of options- I loved especially the courgette fritters that I had not tried before. Thank you!

This restaurant was suggested to me by my friend, and it’s truly amazing. The staff are super friendly and cool. The prices are reasonable, and the food is yummy. We didn’t order any alcoholic drinks this time, but I’d like to try them on my next visit. I highly recommend it if you’re unsure where to eat in Liverpool city centre.

quite nice place. good service and good food.

Perfect Greek cuisine and a friendly place run by an authentic Greek family. Highly recommend the great quality food. Nice atmosphere.

Nice food ,very very friendly staff.like family run restaurants. Will visit again.

Very good. Food good and nice atmoshere.

A well managed family-owned restaurant with fresh and tasty food, nice atmosphere, and friendly service. Will come back again and again.

We're a party of 14 people, here for an annual get together. This is our 2nd time. The food is simple Greek cuisine but always prepared beautifully. I had the lamb cutlets, which were done to perfection, having a beautiful smokey taste and not at all fatty. Our starter of whitebait and calamari was great. We ended with medium sweet Greek coffee. Our total bill, including drinks came to about £40 per person, which was good value, given the quality and quantity. Oh, and the live music was excellent. Much better than recorded materials.

Authentic menu, delicious hearty food served fresh, special mention to the mousaka which arrived steaming on the plate - and that is not an easy one to get right. Totally recommended.

Great no-fuss food and service. My wife had two starters instead of a main course. I had the lamb chops. We shared everything. The house wine was grand. Live Greek music and a noisy, homly atmosphere.

Booked online, 40 mins before arrival. Staff were very pleasant and attentive. We had lovely starters, white fish,baked feta and spinach & feta pastry parcels, all dishes were lovely. The pitta bread and dips were so tasty, however the Greek salad was missing a few ingredients no olives or onions, was still tasty a wee bit more feta would have been good too. Now the main courses were excellent, we had kleftiko, the meat just fell off the bone, it was so tender and very tasty. The moussaka was full of meat and the portion size was massive. Overall the food, wine and atmosphere was fabulous.

Great place, the food was lovely, entertainment was good and service fantastic. Really enjoyed it and would visit again when in Liverpool.

Food, staff, atmosphere, everything was amazing

Re discovered this restaurant.very welcoming, great service, lovely ambience , very friendly staff , fantastic food with good portions. Live music added to experience. Great!!

The restaurant was lovely, and the family owning it, even more ! We went there last summer, we wanted to eat a bit late but everything was closed, but not the Zorbas. They served us even while it was nearly empty and were really friendly, explaining some history of the food and helping us choose. They also made us taste a Greek alcohol for free, just because we were wondering what it was. The food was also really good and decently priced. An absolute 10 out of 10 for the Zorbas !

48 years after my first visit and it never fails to please. Still run by the same family.

Excellent food served quickly by helpful but unfussy waiter. Great choice of food including portion size and vegetarian and vegan options. Lovely Greek style live music at appropriate volume that is so rare now! We could still easily have a conversation.

I visited this Greek gem last night and was utterly impressed. The restaurant offers exceptional value for money, and the welcoming staff embodies the spirit of Greek hospitality. The flavours transported me straight to the Aegean. A must-visit for authentic Greek cuisine lovers!

We visited on a Saturday night and would highly recommend. The live music was really good and made the atmosphere amazing. All of the food was lovely, in particular we loved the lamb kleftico, spanakopita and baked feta starter. The service was also fantastic, all of the staff were very friendly and helpful. Will definitely go back!

Beautiful Greek food made by Georgian top class chef 👩‍🍳 well done! Highly recommended. Love from Irish Ukrainian 🇺🇦🙏

Good food . We enjoyed a Mexe for two . Atmospheric music ... however dont take your car. Resraurant is on corner of a busy crossroads . No parking ..

Bardzo pyszne jedzenie .Polecam 😋

Good food friendly atmosphere. Would recommend.

A splendid restaurant in the heart of Liverpool. Always a lovely friendly welcome from Louisa (a true lady)… she always go out of her way to ensure everything is perfect - thank you. The food is beautifully cooked, authentic and beautifully presented. We just love the place. We really enjoy the entertainment and highly recommend the Mèze for two - try it, you won’t be disappointed. The homemade Baclava is outstanding!….

prices on the bill were higher than on menus offered on our entry when checked menus had changed such is inflation I dare say

Absolutely brilliant. Been meaning to go for ages and went tonight and wasn't disappointed. It has everything you could possibly want. Great food, service, atmosphere and as it was Saturday live greek music which was a bonus!

The mousakka was too salty. The staff really nice, but disappointing food. It was our wedding anniversary and we expected more.

Zorbas must surely be the best Greek restaurant in Liverpool and surely one of the best in the UK! We stumbled on it during an afternoon walk and thought it might be a good choice for dinner and were not proved wrong. It is run by a wonderful family who take great pride in their food. The desserts are especially good 😋 The ambiance is great and the decor is lovely. Live music was provided by Andreas. He played a varied mix of Greek music, contemporary music with the bouzouki being the main instrument. He also played some nice songs of his own too. We were still there late as many of the owner's (Louise and "Mr Michael") family arrived and we soon felt like part of the family and treated to some ouzo 😃 Thoroughly recommended!

Fantastic food, great atmosphere. Helpful and friendly staff. My favourite place to eat when I am in Liverpool.

We were recommended this restaurant. Had the Meze and kleptiko and baklava truly delicious and great portions. We’ll be back

We stumbled across this place having attended a show at the philharmonic hall near by. As is often our frustration in the UK the possibility of being able to get a decent meal after a theatre trip are virtually zero as most venues close their kitchen at 10 pm at the latest. We wondered in to this brilliant authentic restaurant a little after 10 pm and were warmly greeted and shown to a table. The atmosphere was relaxed and friendly and the food was authentic super tasty and great value. The venue is simple and rustic in its decor which suits us fine we have no interest in sitting in over decorated fashionable restaurants eating average food. We had a set meal for 2 and everything was delicious. The Baclava we shared for desert was a particular delight. We would recommend to anyone s these king of places are hard to come by and so so good! We will be back!

The hospitality is number one, the food excels the hospitality, the service is impeccable, the music is excellent. This family makes everyone feel loved. It's my favourite restaurant in all of England.

We ordered hummus, aubergine dip, beef meatballs and courgette fritters, all delicious and came with hot pitta bread. Main course was succulent chicken and lamb mix kebabs and afelia, melting pork in wine and herbs. Live music gave atmosphere and all staff and customers were cheerful. A great meal!

Absolutely lovely family run restaurant. Very authentic Greek food, all of our meat was perfectly cooked and juicy. Fabulous staff and service.

Great place original Greek food most probably the oldest Greek restaurant in Liverpool

A lovely restaurant we stumbled over on our brief trip to Liverpool. Delicious food, generous portions, wonderful owners and staff. We thoroughly enjoyed it!

My boyfriend and I came here for dinner and we had a brilliant time. The food, service and ambience was excellent. From the moment you walked in , it was as if you were transported to the Mediterranean with the music and decor. The food was very tasty and the service, great. No wonder it is Liverpool’s longest running restaurant! We really enjoyed our evening , thank you. ❤️

Great atmosphere, live music was awesome, food was good but I have had better.

Fantastic Greek Family Restaurant would Highly Recommend ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Fantastic food last night the meze with the live music all was lovely, to all the staff and owners efharisto!

As a greek person I always find it difficult to dine in a greek restaurant abroad. Something always doesn't feel right. But that wasn't the case I'm Zorbas. The food was incredible, handmade, authentic, just like my yiayia is making it. 🤤The owner was so sweet and attentive, and the waiter was funny and creative on his service and made the experience even better!! Tip, if you go on Friday, Saturday and Sunday there is live music 😊 We went on Easter Sunday and they even made a traditional special for the day, magiritsa. I can keep talking about the experience, but truly words won't be enough. Don't miss it !!

Food was beautiful, owner very friendly & interesting, restaurant very atmospheric.Highly recommend we will return!!

Best Greek food in the uk by far! 10/10

Zorbas goes beyond the stars ! An exceptional restaurant with the best food I have ever eaten. We really loved the atmosphere; traditional, family run and non pretentious. This family know what they’re doing. We can’t wait to visit again soon. Thank you for a wonderful time.

This is the place in Liverpool for traditional Greek food. Lots of choice all mains come with rice or chips you can ask for half and half. The seafood and mousakka is amazing. But the deserts are the star of the show all home made and change daily this was the baklava cheese cake combination and it was phenomenal.

Really nice food and good service. Reasonable prices. Could do with more choice re drinks maybe

Such a lovely restaurant and so much gorgeous food
