"I recently visited Liosis Cafe Bar for breakfast with my grandparents, hoping for a delightful morning of catching up. Unfortunately, our experience left much to be desired. The main issues centered around the quality of the full English breakfast. The plate arrived cold, and the bacon was notably anaemic. The sausages were of poor quality, and the poached eggs were disappointingly hard and overcooked. At a price point of £10 per breakfast, the overall quality fell short of expectations, leaving me feeling quite upset. While the coffee and juice were acceptable, the lack of attention to detail in the preparation of the main course overshadowed any positives. Additionally, our table wasn't checked on throughout the meal, denying us the opportunity to address our concerns with the staff and give them a chance to rectify the issues. In summary, my visit to Liosis Cafe Bar for breakfast was marred by subpar food quality and a lack of attentive service. For the price paid, I expected a more enjoyable experience. I hope that these points can serve as constructive feedback for improvement."

"I had been looking forward to trying this restaurant for a while since the reviews were great and we live nearby. Unfortunately, my experience was very disappointing. We had to send back a pizza because it was undercooked in the middle and soggy. My Chicken Kiev had visible pink tendon and I was unsure if it was cooked properly. The manager was kind enough to remove both dishes from our bill, but overall it was a letdown. My youngest son only ate two slices of his pizza and later complained of feeling sick. We left most of our meals uneaten, did not receive them in to-go boxes, and the manager did not bring it up. This was a poor experience and we will not be returning."

"A fabulous Christmas Menu, each course was sublime. We had: black pudding, leek and potato soup and goats cheese with walnuts and beetroot. My friends opted for the Turkey main course which was delicious, apparently, and I paid the supplement for Beef Wellington and mustard mash. Puddings were a difficult choice but I had the chocolate Yule log and my friends had boozy plum pavlova! Starting with a glass of fizz and ending with a cup of tea and mince pie, the 3-course meal was well worth £45 per head. Blackfriars staff are always attentive and friendly and, although being optional, the 10% service charge was very well-deserved. Finally, my friend received a birthday card and decorated dessert. Can't wait to go back!"

"This is a wonderful place to visit with friendly staff and amazing food at affordable prices. You will not be disappointed. However, on a recent visit, I was let down. The same dish I had enjoyed before, the mixed grill, looked different and had a smaller amount of food than before. Some meats were even missing. While the food was nice, I left still feeling hungry."

"I highly recommend this restaurant! It was our first experience at an Indian restaurant, and our waitress, Megna, was incredibly helpful in guiding us through the menu. The manager was also very kind and arranged a table for us, even though we hadn't made a reservation. If I had to mention one downside, it would be that it was a bit noisy, but I believe that was more due to the crowd on that particular day rather than a reflection of the restaurant itself. We will definitely be returning!"
