10/10Over the last week I have visited Lings on Kings twice. The first was for a wedding function and the second was for dinner. Both times I attended Lings on Kings the food (banquet was soo tasty) service and entertainment was outstanding and I will definitely be going back when in the UK. Ling was an amazing host who made sure everyone was enjoying themselves, I can see why they had recently received a trip advisor award because the restaurant was amazing. If you get the chance please go to Lings on Kings - I highly recommend it.

10/10The owner, Ling, was extremely welcoming, very friendly and had a fabulous restaurant. Excellent value for money, good sized portions, fresh and tasty. Ling's team, the service was second to none. Well worth a visit when in Southport

7/10Waiters worked really well. Food was a bit slow arriving. Noisy with young children running around, as tables very close this disturbed our experience . Food average
Lings on Kings • Owner
Hello Sharon Hilton, thank you for your feedback. Apologies for the children on the next table disturbing you. We could have moved you upstairs if there was a problem. The family were lovely people and we are a little surprised by your comments. As you could see we were extremely busy at peak time on a busy Saturday night, so sorry if you had a little wait. We do our best to keep everyone served as quick as possible with our friendly staff. We hope you have a better experience next time. Regards Lings On Kings

10/10We found this lovely little restaurant last year. We have since travelled back to Southport from Staffordshire 4 times and always have one meal here on our visit. We now have our close friends loving the food and restaurant as much as we do. Never lets us down with food or service. 5 stars all the way.

5/10We booked our table for 5.30, but found the service slow and we were concerned that we might be late for our theatre start time. In fairness to the staff after we pointed out that we might be late the service improved greatly and we finished our meal in good time. We all thought the food could have been better, what we had was very salty and sweet. Perhaps we didn't choose well. We all feel that we won't be visiting Lings on Kings again.
Lings on Kings • Owner
Hello Chris Brooks, thank you for your feedback. As you are aware at the time of your visit, the restaurant was extremely busy, busier than usual. We apologise for your waiting as we do not like to rush people but once we were made aware of your theatre booking we prioritised your table. We would have done this from the start if we had known. We are disappointed that some of the food you found to be either too salty or sweet for your liking. Everyone’s pallet is different and unless we are made aware of any preference it is impossible to please everyone. When asked if everything was ok you did not inform us of any issues except your pending theatre booking. We do hope to do better for you next time as we do always try our best for our customers.. Regards Lings on Kings

10/10We found this restaurant last year during an overnight stay in Southport. We came back in October for my birthday meal. Our friends decided to have a little weekend break with us so we booked via the fork app a few weeks ago and they absolutely loved the restaurant and food. We travel from Leek in Staffordshire to eat here and needless to say we will keep doing so.

7/10Good food and service. However the spotlights flickered
Lings on Kings • Owner
Hello William Tan, thank you for your review. We sincerely apologise for the flickering spot lights. We have now sorted the problem. Basically non dimming lights had been installed on a light circuit fitted with a dimmer switch. Sorry this happened and spoiled the ambiance at the time of your visit. We hope to see you again soon, Regards Lings on Kings

10/10Excellent evening once again with 2 friends. Had a banquet of 5 courses for less than £20 per head. Fantastic food especially the spare ribs best I have ever tasted. What are you waiting for give them a ring and book your table for a great night out.
