Ardiente Grill Bar in Down

What a beautiful meal. Restaurant under rated. Service first class and food gorgeous.Manager had time for a chat with all customers. highly recommend

First class food and service. We all enjoyed every mouthful. Lovely atmosphere and mellow music. Will be very soon hopefully

The food was just heated and the prices were overpriced. The drinks on meniu don't comply with real drinks you get. Only the steaks were good. Also, doesn't accept credit card.

The atmosphere isn't bad, but that's about it. The food was heated, the steak was good, but it was also the most expensive. I bought a "Raspberry Gin Fizz" and they brought me water and soda and it cost me £9. In general, I do not recommend and even insist that this establishment be closed.

A hidden gem 💎 in Newcastle. A must try. Amazing food and service

Burgers were so dry, no sauce whatsoever. So thin and tiny patties also. Asked for ketchup multiple times and once we finished the girl came over and said they couldn’t find the bottle, so that’s why she didn’t come back. Friendly staff but they were very flustered and never checked once if the food was okay. So expensive also.. Wouldn’t be back..

The wait staff were extremely busy while we were there, but they were still friendly and attentive. The food was delicious. The cocktails were good, too.

So good I had to leave a review. Big chunky chips and burger was unreal! Definitely be back

This is a great restaurant. Whoever left a bad review was there on a bad day. Every time we are in Newcastle we eat here . The food is great. It looks like a regular menu but the way the food is cooked and the sauces make every meal different and delicious.

Very friendly staff, with great selection of Drinks and Food. The Fillet Steak, was great! Danny the Dog enjoyed his treats!

We were a family of 6 adults and 2 kids yesterday and had a wonderful meal at Pacha! The vegetarian and vegan food was outstanding, the veggie burrito was the best I have ever had. Lovely decor inside, beautiful views. Wonderful service and a fantastic meal all round. We will be back 😊

The burrito's in here are amazing

We were staying in Newcastle with our dogs so sat outside to eat. First thing they did, after we ordered, was bring the dogs water. We ordered extra chips to feed the dogs and they gave them individual bowls suitable for dogs, most places would just give you a normal bowl to feed the dogs by hand. They were very thoughtful when it came to the dogs and the service was second to none. The food was beautiful, desert to die for, and will visit again for sure. I cannot recommend Pacha enough <3

3 of us siblings had an excellent dinner experience in this restaurant - food is to die for and the service was warm, patient, friendly and prompt. Would recommend in a heartbeat.

Nice restaurant with really good food. Interesting decor and friendly service. There is a toilet on site. Clean and comfortable. I recommend

Stopped for a meal showen to a table friendly staff that had knowledge of the meals on the menu good service

Food was amazing service was great 👍 love few of the beach while having dinner prices are great and have dine for two deals

Food was cooked to perfection. Such a relaxing atmosphere here. Loved it all.

Great we place we had some food here last night we had ribeye steak mash was so nice chefs pepperd sauc was so good food was amazing very friendly and lovely staff not a bit was left on our plates ,

Such a lovely place to eat. Julia who served us was super friendly and helpful,she made us feel very welcomed. Food was lovely too..

Super helpful staff, delicious food. They wonderfully accommodated all our dietary requirements for a large group. Would recommend 😀

We love pacha!! Here for a big group dinner and the staff could not have been more attentive or lovely! We finished up the evening with delightful digestifs and a happy send off!!! Thank you Julia!!!

Manager is extremely unpleasant and severely mistreats his workers. Avoid like the plague

Worst restaurant ever!!! Food was disgusting, the managers attitude and behaviour was even worse. Save your money. AVOID

Absolutely fantastic and affordable! Went with family of 6 and not one person had any issues everyone fully enjoyed their meal. The owner was the only chef for tonight and he did a brilliant job, definitely one of the top places to eat in Newcastle

Beautiful food, great staff and amazing view. Had a lovely meal here over Easter week . Great choice of food and everything we had was delicious.

Terrible place not fresh but blue moulded food served. Do not waste your money here. Should be shut down young girls arnt safe near him either!!

I was working here AVOID LIKE TBE PLAGUE he cooks mouldy food and he leaves food in the fridge for weeks on ends and uses it

Nice to see a chargrilled chicken breast for a change, as so many places only have breaded chicken. Meals obviously made fresh too as a little while to wait, but worth it. Very reasonably priced too. Will be back.

The decor of the place gives it a great atmosphere. The owner is friendly and provides first class service. And the food, Soup of the day was carrot and coriander and it’s probably the best thing I have ever had. My partner ordered ribs and the meat was prepared so well it was just pealing off the bone. For my main I had their vegetarian burrito and it was amazing. Portion sizes are great too. I couldn’t even finish my burrito because it was so big. Definitely recommend this place. Absolutely loved it! We will definitely be back next time we are in Newcastle.

Great wee restaurant. Good food and friendly staff 👌 spectacular view. Would definitely go back again

Great experience of different cuisine. Beautiful food well presented.

Really enjoyed first visit to Pacha. It was warm on a cold evening. Nice decor. Welcoming service. I'm a vegetarian. Good choice of vegetarian/vegan options. Cheesy garlic ciabatta was delicious. Vegan bean burger was really tasty compared to the awful meat like burgers served everywhere else these days. Would recommend.

Food was excellent as was the service. Was really quiet but it was early(5pm) on a Friday in February. Would definitely return.

Perfect food, great service.highly recomended!!!

We had a very good experience tonight. I requested the fish food paella and it was absolutely fantastic and no problem for the kitchen to make it (it was not on the menu) The service was one point, the restaurant was clean (also the toilets) and overall very good. Thanks again, we will be back !!

Whoahh ….. deelish - best steak Ever !!!!!

Really lovely little gem. The food was beautiful and well presented, amazing service ìn a very relaxing and friendly atmosphere. Thank you

Great food excellent staff amazing service

Went here for dinner after a hike up the Mournes. Was welcomed by friendly staff, and a nice, cosy atmosphere. The food selection is great, with plenty of vegetarian options. Portions are very generous! Went for the veggie burrito which didn't disappoint. Service was superb, thanks to Halit and Julia. Highly recommend this place, will surely visit again! 🙂

Super friendly staff, restaurant was very kid friendly. Staff made sure we were well looked after and food was extremely tasty. Highly recommended!

Service friendly price believable low and value is like before corona start defenetly worth to visit. . . ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This is a lovely restaurant . Very good food & very polite friendly service. Would certainly recommend.

Perfect stop for lunch or dinner. After a long day of traveling my wearisome husband and I stopped here for dinner. Oddly enough, we ordered a burrito and it was so large we split it between the two of us and were completely full. Believe me when I say it was one of the best burritos I have ever had! We were so impressed with Pacha that we stopped in another time for lunch during our visit to Newcastle. For lunch I ordered the chickpea and feta salad and was completely impressed. Service was excellent, food was delicious, and cost was reasonable. Highly recommend!

The food was good the steak was burnt a bit but the rest was good they also offer ice cream and coloring pages for kids the pasta was also good the staff was very nice the bathroom is so clean and tidy

Just amazing from start to finish. Greeted with a massive smile as we entered and given a seat with a great view. Menu amazing and cost effective flavors to suit and drinks amazing staff so friendly and can’t wait to go back

Excellent food, excellent service at a reasonable price. Would highly recommend and we'll definitely be returning.

Had the paella and it was amazing

A really good place to eat. In fact it was by far the best food we had during our stay. The restaurant is spotlessly clean. Service is excellent and food is delicious. The owner and the young lady who served us were friendly and helpful. It is definately worth a visit. certainly did not disappoint on all levels.

Paid a visit to Pasha’s restaurant today had a gluten free burger and fries my wife had a vegan pasta with fries was just perfect and the blue cheese dip was fantastic. We have been there before and it’s always great. The restaurant is spotless washroom spotless and set up for people with disabilities. Pasha is an excellent host and an example to other restaurants. Thanks Pasha for a great dining experience 👊😎

I would say that Pacha tries hard but there are a few things that let it down but luckily the food is not one of them. Our food was by no means fine dining in its presentation, but the taste was excellent. I would liken it to a little restaurant you might go to on holiday in Spain where it’s not expensive, it’s not impressive inside but you are pleasantly surprised by how tasty the food is. Our waitress was lovely and she dealt with an undercooked steak with professionalism and had it back on our table within minutes. We will definitely go back to Pacha, I just hope they can keep the business going as it never seems to be busy which is a shame, perhaps the decor and appearance is a little to do with that as it’s quite confused.

This is an easy one! Did all 7 of us enjoy the meal, the service, the staff, the ambience? YES!!! Would we go back? YES!!!

Very friendly staff and exquisite decor inside. Give it a chance. It looks closed but only being refurbished

Amazing food and amazing service pleasant experience and a great find I will be back next time I’m in Newcastle

Great place to eat. The food was delicious. You may be tempted to walk past as they are waiting on their new front signage which makes it look closed but it is definitely open and we hope to come back tomorrow before we head back to Dublin. Their new waitress Sarah was really lovely.

Went here after hiking Mourne mountains. Staff was was very sweet and attentive, food was amazing with a Mediterranean touch, and my son absolutely loved the pasta dish with tomato sauce from their kids menu. I can highly recommend this little restaurant gem!

Great wee food stop at the South end of Newcastle. To be honest as it's at the end of the promenade I've often walked past it however we made the concous decision to go in as we wanted something different than the standard fish and chips you get in most other eateries. Wow. It was amazing. I had the vegetarian burrito which came with sour cream, cheese and salsa. The high point being the home made guacamole. I've never had anything like that before. It was so light and really added to the meal. The prawn starter was equally amazing and my missus had prawns and pasta and was like wise blown away. I see people commenting on the service, from what I saw on the day I was there it was the same person serving and cooking. For those complainers I'd say is a Mediterranean bar so get a glass of vino and chill while you enjoy the sea views.

This place has served the best steak I have had since coming to Northern Ireland 3 years ago. The staff and service is absolutely amazing

Best place to eat in newcastle, fantastic hospitality, food was piping hot, and beautifully presented. Very welcoming, and nothing was troublesome fabulous menu for both meat eaters vegetarian/vegan. Portion sizes were absolutely fabulous, and a reasonably priced menu which was a bonus. Will definitely be back highly recommended 10/10

Amazing service and amazing food. Never once had a bad meal here. Owner is a gentleman and a very good host. Music in background so relaxing and menu is amazing so hard to pick as so much amazing food! Cocktails are amazing and the deals...

Just home from a lovely evening out. Beautiful food and great service. There's a really nice vibe from the restaurant and the interior design and music were good too. Thanks Halet.

Ate here as a family, staff were really friendly and nothing was a problem. Food was delicious nachos to start and the chicken fajitas where amazing and a must try if you are coming here! Will be back.

My partner and I popped in for the Wednesday burger meal deal and the vibe was nice, cozy and welcoming. And the food was outstanding. Definitely coming again !!!

Ordered two kids meals, one was a burger- it was the size of a small meatball which would only feed a 3 year old (not my 8 year old who was devastated to be given such a tiny burger) and a pasta for my 4...

Have been here on a few occasions recently for Sunday lunch, I find it very good, no problem with the food at all, the only issue is it has mostly no customers. Don't know why as food is good and fairly priced. Maybe owner needs to promote the restaurant more.

Excellent food and service. Arrived at 7pm for Dinner, great view of the sea on a lovely evening. We ordered fillet steak and chicken burritos. The fillet steak was cooked perfectly as ordered, came with pepper whiskey sauce which was delightful. The Chicken Burrito was...

Great food. Immaculately clean. Reasonably priced. Friendly staff. Can't wait to go back. The pork chops were fantastic!

Great food, friendly staff. I had a delicious Sirloin steak with pepper sauce and hand cut chips. Will definitely go back.

On holiday from Belfast for the day and we had a really nice meal tonight for a family of four. A fair vegetarian/vegan selection - so no worries there. The staff were very welcoming. Place was spotless. Slight view of the sea across the busy road. We shall return.

My family and I love this restaurant. The food is top class but it's really the staff who make it. The lady who served us is so friendly and professional. She treated our youngest daughter like a princess. The lamb cutlets were so tasty. Definitely...

A wee bit of foil in my found and poor seasonong

Welcome so friendly. Staff so nice and chatty. So clean and comfortable. A very different menu to most places in Newcastle. Portions so perfect and tasty tasty tasty . Nothing g to much trouble as I am very fussy . Can’t wait to go back...

Really nice family run restaurant - friendly staff and really good food. Lots of options for veggies and vegans as well as choice for meat eaters. I recommend the veggie fajitas - sizeable portions and lots of fresh veg - and my partner loved the salmon and mashed potato. Lovely setting with views of the sea and reasonably priced. Highly recommend.

Great staff, lovely food. The ribeye is Absolutely amazing, kids menu is great and the ice cream is nice. Good menu, Would reccomend and would come back

Nice wee restaurant , staff are fantastic and food was good but portion way too small from the kids menu and I really meant small 😅, but overall nice wee restaurant

Another fabulous meal at Pacha, steak as always cooked to perfection and the Salmon is first class

Great service, amazing steak. Will deff be back.

My partner and I just had the most incredible meal. Prawns to die for. Steak and chicken incredibly cooked. Juicy and melt in the mouth. My favourite restaurant by far.

Fillet Steak was world class, Five times better than another restaurant in the town, on both occasions. Fajitas were superb, service pleasant and very fast. Sets a new standard for Newcastle, in every way. Will be back soon!.
