Quick info
About Santorini Greek Taverna
A family run Greek restaurant on Linacre Road in Liverpool, Santorini Greek Taverna opens in the evenings only and builds its cooking around a menu of 129 dishes, most of them made fresh to order. Gyros, lamb, souvlaki and Greek salad anchor the list, with mixed grill and mixed kebab plates for larger appetites and homemade chips served alongside the mains. Portions arrive large. Because so much is cooked to order, food can take a while to reach the table, and waits are reported. The venue is small and decorated in a Greek taverna style, with Greek music playing. The team can accommodate larger group bookings. Soft drinks such as Fanta round out the drinks side, and the kitchen runs Tuesday to Sunday, closed Mondays.

Customer Review Summary
Food that tastes like Greece is the thread running through nearly every account, with the lamb and gyros singled out as tender and flavourful and one visitor calling the souvlaki the best they have eaten. Close behind come the Greek salad, praised as exceptional by a repeat diner, and the homemade chips, which even a more measured reviewer rated highly alongside a mixed grill and salmon. Portions are repeatedly described as massive, and several mention the small room's Greek tavern decor and the music. One reviewer notes there is no alcohol licence and that guests may bring their own wine or beer for a small corkage, and suggests pre ordering since much is freshly cooked and can take time. The sharpest dissent comes from a collection order that arrived long after the promised time, with staff confused about the order, a card machine that failed without warning, and a mixed kebab served without bread and rice the reviewer compared unfavourably to microwave rice. Another found the fried calamari flavourless and rubbery. A birthday group of sixteen reported nothing was too much trouble.

“I have tried the restaurant more than once and each time I am amazed by the delicious taste of the food especially their Greek salad which is truly exceptional. I recommend visiting this place you won't regret it.”

“I visited a Santorini-style Greek restaurant here in the Liverpool, UK. And it honestly felt like I was back in Greece. As a chef who has worked there, I really value authenticity and this place delivered perfectly.♥️ The lamb and gyros was outstanding: tender, flavorful, and beautifully balanced with fresh ingredients. Everything tasted genuinely Greek, not adapted or toned down. I absolutely loved it and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for real Greek food in the UK. 🇬🇷”

“I absolutely love coming here. Staff are amazing, food is just like being abroad. Everything home made. The flavours are just beautiful. The price is boss too! Highly recommend this place! Portion sizes are so good!! It’s what Bootle has needed, a good little hidden gem of a restaurant! This has quickly become our go to takeaway”
- Theodor Gavan
