We have been violently sick from our visit to here on Friday. The whole bank holiday weekend me and…read moremy partner have had upset stomachs committing and visiting the toilet due to our visit at Chung Ku. We visited them after reading the reviews and they weren't bad, we get there and order drinks. There is tissue in the glass for bottled water like it's been polished with toilet roll. The coke did not taste like authentic genuine coke. we order the food- I ordered a 'sizzling skillet steak' that come like salt water soup with chunks of cheap steak in - no sizzling. Partner ordered crispy chilli chicken that had a consistency like squid- cheap rubbery chicken. He also ordered pork dumplings which he said were like a slimey Greggs sausage roll. I tried forcing the food down me as it was expensive for what it was but it was vulgar. Not once did a member of staff ask was everything okay, and when we were paying I said it was disgusting and we got ignored. I have emailed with no reply, also left a trip advisor review to which their reply was defensive and not addressing how truly poor the restaurant and the food is. The restaurant itself looks old, there is rubbish in the front of things used to try block entry ways so you can't see how neglected it truly is. Will be telling everyone just how awful this place is and I hope our £70 food bill can contribute not to the owners pocket but being put back into the restaurant to make it cleaner. This place has a food hygiene rating of 1. Need I say more

Can anyone hear the word Friends without the theme tune following? Well, it's in my head now…read moreanyway. Opposite The Nile, Friends is another rather decent clay oven clad flame griller of the takeout ilk on that expansive stretch of Smithdown takeaways. The food is brill especially the mixed kebab and the special garlic bread (Cheese, mushrooms and jalepeno. It's aneurism inducing but mighty fine.) Also, check the student deals if you need to fill a huge gap or have thrown the diet out of the window. Student meal: 10" pizza with two toppings, chips, two drinks...And a chicken fillet burger for £6.50! That is a serious amount of fastfood. We're not just friends now, we're blood brothers.

So after two nights in Liverpool I was ready to have a proper kebab. Being an American, I always…read morethought a kebab was a skewer but was confused because i never saw anyone eating them after a night out in the UK. Friends was close to where I was staying and was told that it was the best spot for them ever so after a night out in Liverpool we went over and grabbed some. The naan took less than a minute to cook in the clay oven and all the ingredients looked fresh. Once at the house we devoured them and instantly wanted more. I had no idea this is what everyone was talking about. I only wish I was able to eat one a day or every couple hours.

I've been here before and it was quite good but I hadn't been for a while so I took my family today…read moreand was disgusted. There was new staff who didn't communicate properly with the customers or other workers and we had to point out one of the burgers in order to receive it as the man serving us didn't notice and wasn't doing his job. Then, the orders were completely wrong. It's safe to say I'm not coming back here for a while.

There aren't many drive through burger kings in Liverpool, in fact this may be the only one, so if…read moreonly a whopper will do then this is where you have to go. I have to admit it's in a dodgy looking area and not a place I would choose to drive to in the dark , but as a drive through it's reliable. You get what you want, fast food. If you choose to eat inside then it's clean, and tidy. Had a makeover not too long ago so no more ripped plastic seats, and it provides what you want, burgers fries fizzy drinks and ice cream.

The delivery is fast and efficient and is only £1.50 for orders over ten pounds which cannot really be grumbled at. You can order over the phone where the staff are very pleasant or even go for the ultimate lazy option and avoid human contact all together by ordering on Just eat. Either way you can rest assured that you are going to be provided with a great quality meal straight to your front door. This is the kind of place which is the perfect accompaniment to a Saturday night infront of the television where you want to sit down relax and get a good munch on. I'd particularly suggest a King Prawn tandoori for less than seven quid but whatever you fancy if you like Indian then you will appreciate the good quality food which is served up by Saffron. I have found in the past that takeaway Indians dont measure up to actually going out to eat for a curry but once again Saffron breaks the mold and is every bit as special as getting your gladrags on and going out to eat.

Saffron, I am indeed a fan. My friends ordered a set meal for 2; you get loads for your £16,…read morepoppadoms, dips, naan, and the meals! I chose the chicken tikka masala and corriander naan. It was beautiful. I've not had curry in ages and it was exactly what I needed. Fast service, friendly staff, cheap and above all, perfectly spiced with tender pieces of chicken in plenty of sauce... my only gripe is that I wanted more when I'd finished! They do meal deal of the week too, so make sure you ask! You get the curry of the week with pilau rice and naan for £4.95. You can't beat that price when it's such good quality. Perfect for loafing infront of the telly with a good film. (+£1.50 to deliver). You won't be disappointed with Saffron. My hat is tipped to you sirs!

Most of the food here is cooked in atraditional clay oven style which means that it's not quite as fast as your usual fast food outlet but if you get the chops by God you'll be glad you waited.

I'm not entirely sure what is so different about clay oven kebabs but one thing is for certain you can taste the high quality. I have ventured into this place on many a drunken night and have always found it to be excellent value and excellent taste on the whole. This place is different to your standard takeaway and even serves roast chicken and the best word to describe that particular taste is succulent, I cannot describe what a treat it was to get roast chicken as opposed to your standard takeaway fare. This place is really refreshing and does the job whatever your needs, with excellent staff and great value The Nile is one of the best places to visit in Smithdown.

As I stomped past Childwall Fish and Chips I was pleasured with the smell of chips. On a mission, I…read moretook a sharp turn back and went in to buy some chips. The lady serving was very friendly, quick and efficient. The chips were of a good size, ungreasy and fresh. At £1.10 I couldn't complain. If I had had a bigger appetite I would have tucked in to one of their soups - chicken with noodles - followed by crispy chicken cantonese style with a few prawn crackers. There is the option for 2 at around £8.20 or £10 in total which looked equally appetising. There is a really good range of chinese meals to choose from but if you don't fancy this, then the fish and chips will make you smile. Last point to note is the cleanliness of the place - really good!
