Empire Restaurant 11 Nevill Street, Southport PR9 0DE

"My wife and I visited tonight for the first time. Staff were very welcoming and attentive throughout. Service was quick and always with a smile and a conversation. My wife's allergy was explained and the lady checked with the kitchen to make sure everything was okay which it was. The menu was extensive. The food was delicious, tasty and fresh and there was lots of it. The Pinot Grigio was very reasonably priced at £15.90 per bottle but I was on the alcohol free beer. We couldn't finish but they boxed the rest up for us to take home. The lady said that staff share the tips so we gave them a bit extra. We had to drive about 30 minutes to get here but we like Southport and we will come back here again. Recommended."

"Been here A BUNCH of times with my grandparents and when I here that we are going I can't contain my excitement! This restaurant is one of my favourites excepeslly the buffet! Love the smell as soon as I walk in, the food is awesome and the employees are really nice!"

"Absolutely lovely food. Service was great too. Would recommend to anyone. Didn't take as many pictures as I should have to share on here."

"Just by the Marina Lake and seaside... 2 minutes walk down from the pier, and right after the fish and chips shops. They have menu and buffet system. We tried today their buffet. The seater guy was really nice, not pushy, smiled and gave us a table we choosed. They're serving alcoholic drinks as refreshments. The buffet is really small, not too much choice but fresh! They have mostly seafood and pork, with some chicken and vegetarian options. We terribly missed the salt and pepper ribs, and the salt and pepper chips was just a little bit above room temperature. The rest of the food was hot enough. The ice cream was from a machine, so no issues... They also provide different toppings on them. Unfortunately the fruit salad was room temperature (water melon, pineapple, and peaches (tinned). They only should have a little more attention, and everything could be 5 stars. I've watched the staff with other customers, too... All of the was very kind, helpful and attention on the details. Might wasn't everything perfect, but definitely worth a visit or two as we will definitely pop in again in the future. Altogether it was a good experience in Southport. Oh, the 2 buffet and 2 soft drinks costs £30 on Sunday afternoon..."
