About Akasya

Akasya is a Turkish restaurant in Liverpool, at 42 Bold St. The menu includes lamb shish and sucuk, lamb shank and a sharing platter, so a table can order individual plates or put one dish in the middle. Meals arrive with free bread and dips, which gives each table something to start on while the main dishes are prepared. For a shorter visit, the restaurant offers a two-course lunch menu, and a salad bowl comes with it.

Customer Review Summary

Reviewers most often return to the two-course lunch menu, praising portions far bigger than the lunch format led them to expect. Lamb shank that falls off the bone, Beyti with tasty rice, chicken shish and grilled salmon are named as mains, with lamb liver and spicy sausage as starters. Evening diners single out the sea bass, the guvec and a sharing platter. Regulars favour the sucuk, lamb shish, chicken thighs, juicy wings and ribs. Several describe the food as freshly cooked, and one says the wait stayed short despite that. Staff are called friendly, welcoming and helpful, and a few servers are singled out as a credit to the restaurant. The one criticism comes from a single reviewer who felt the mains could have been spicier. Many mention the free bread and dips, and one eats them with sucuk like a Turkish hotdog.

    “The food here is absolutely delicious and the portions are very generous. The people that work there are so friendly and polite. Really great place to go to. Highly recommend”
  • Katie Williams
    “Great value for money and very tasty food. My husband and I were planning to eat somewhere else on Bold Street, but we came across Akasya promoting their 2 course lunch for only £14.95. The menu had so much variety, truly something for everyone I got lamb liver for starter, I've never had such tender liver, it was perfectly seasoned. My husband had spicy sausage. Very juicy and flavourful. Then I had Beyti, very tasty, good portion, very tasty rice. My husband had a lamb shank, fantastic portion, tasty and so tender, completely fell off the bone. Only thing I would say is, the mains could have been a little more spicy, but we will ask about this on our next visit. The service was great, a young lady was our main server, she made sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed, also very efficient. But every member of staff we encountered were also very friendly. Overall 10/10. Would definitely recommend and at that price, we can afford to come regularly. Thank you.”

    “Third time visiting , food was delightful as ever. Service was excellent and attentive. Went for the lunch menu 15.95 for two courses. Was expecting a small lunch portion but you got loads , free bread as well with dips. Food was exceptionally cooked. At £43 for two courses each and 4 drinks an absolute bargain. Will visit again.”
  • Michelle Gerrard
    “Came here on a busy Saturday evening. Staff were excellent and made sure we were taken care of. Niles in particular is a credit to the restaurant. The food portions are plentiful and the quality is lovely. We opted for the sharing platter, seabass which was divine and the guvec which was really tasty. Definitely on our return list. Thanks so much for a lovely evening!”
