New Asian fusion restaurant Liu Shi is coming to Hope Street

A welcome addition to the thriving Liverpool leisure scene, Liu Shi promises a wide menu of Asian fusion dishes – a few you might recognise, and others developed by Liu Shi chefs, coupled with a relaxed atmosphere and stunning interior.

Superbly located in the shadows of the city’s two iconic cathedrals, the restaurant is committed to serving dishes to customers using local ingredients combined with fragrant spices and flavours from across Asia.

Liu Shi is celebrating the opening by offering its first diners a free drink with their meal.

Phil Breen, General Manager of Liu Shi, said:

“We are excited to bring relaxed fusion dining to Hope Street. The area is vibrant and full of Liverpool history with a tremendous buzz. Whether guests are exploring, celebrating, or dining with friends, colleagues or loved ones, looking for a memorable dinner or just a few snacks, our menus are affordable to suit every occasion. With a free drink for our first diners, guests will be able to experience the service and enjoy a celebratory toast on us.”

Set just a few steps away from the famous ‘A Case History’ suitcases sculpture by John King, Liu Shi at 60 Hope Street is set over three floors, and the spacious yet cosy restaurant will seat up to 120 guests at basement and ground level, with the top floor opening in the spring for weddings, parties, corporate events, anniversaries, baby showers, launches, and intimate events.

Phil Breen, has had over 15 years’ experience in hospitality and is keen to welcome guests, he added:

“Our chefs are busy finalising the menu and we are really looking forward to showcasing our dishes to Liverpool diners – we know that visitors will love what we have planned for them. There will be something for everyone, from snacks and nibbles to small and large plates, including duck cottage pie, Asian inspired Sunday roast and weekend brunch.”
