Simply outstanding! This is one of the most phenomenal meals I've ever had. Where do I start ... Service - friendly, professional, and welcoming. All the staff were amazing. It's the little things that really make a difference, like asking to take your coat when you arrive. When trying to choose from an amazing and taste provoking menu, the staff were knowledgeable to describe the tastes, textures, and even sources of the foods. As a fussy/particular vegetarian they even marked on the menu the things I could eat (of which there was a fantastic choice) and when the food was served they even pointed out the dishes I could eat.
An extensive drinks menu, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic. We had a bottle of red wine and some IPAs. Once again, amazing.
I can not describe how amazing this restaurant is. Fantastic food, fantastic service, we've left pleasantly full, and all our taste buds have been tickled.
If you're in Jesmond, it is an absolute must to visit! I'm thoroughly impressed and will...
Read moreMy girlfriend and I went here for dinner on a Saturday. The restaurant seemed quite busy but the seating layout meant it didn't feel cramped. The staff were incredibly friendly and knowledgeable about both the drinks menu and the food menu. We ordered the steak, pork belly, cabbage (I'm sure it was a cabbage dish but I can't find it on the menu anymore), pea fritters, and focaccia. The focaccia and topping was superbly paired with a lovely oil. The pea fritters were matched perfectly with a lovely mint sauce - definitely a highlight. The steak was complimented well by a crumble. The cabbage had an amazing charred crumble on top as well. The pork belly was cooked really well and the flavours were great but I found the tonnato quite overpowering but I am not a huge anchovy fan, however my partner quite liked it. Overall, the dishes were masterfully put together, the space is designed well making it cosy but not overwhelming and the staff were helpful, friendly and...
Read moreVery cool little restaurant visited whilst on holiday. We booked fairly late on and as a result were sat in the window, the seats are not particularly comfortable but if you book late, you take your medicine. Just something to be aware of.
Food was excellent, the hake and the lamb particularly delicious. Service was courteous and professional, wine was also good. It was super busy even though it was a Sunday and had a nice atmosphere.
It was very good value for money, we've found this a couple of times whilst up here - even the more up market places are pretty generous on the portions. I would call these medium plates rather than small! We ordered three each as recommended but if you don't have a big appetite 5 or even 4 would be fine, particularly if you want pud!
Well...
