Aroma Ryton in Gateshead

First visit for me , food lovely and service excellent staff very helpful and friendly will definitely be going back

Always amazing food, and service. Always busy, which is a good sign 😀

Visited for a family members birthday. Service was fantastic and all 19 of us enjoyed the food. We will definitely return.

Our favourite restaurant and is always our first choice. Many family occasions celebrated here. Great atmosphere, wonderful food and always Paulo and staff provide great service with a sense of humour which makes this restaurant the place to be.

My absolute favourite restaurant!! The food is incredible especially the sea bass!! It always tastes phenomenal! Fantastic atmosphere and extremely kind staff. Would eat at this restaurant every week if it was possible! We love it so much 💖

Bijou restaurant a bit cramped but the food is great.

Lovely small intimate restaurant, very friendly and helpful staff

Lovely pasta friendly service and very reasonable for price.

Lovely little local gem. Good authentic Italian food and service. Very tasty pizza!

We had a great time. Lovely surroundings. Beautiful food and great service. Couldn't fault it. Special mention to our waitress Faith who was amazing and very entertaining.

We visited just before closing on a Sunday. The restaurant stayed open even though we were the only table booked. The food was really nice, we couldn't fault any of it. Our waitress Faith was great, very friendly and made us feel very welcome. She even brought over an ice cream with birthday candle at the end for my birthday which was a lovely touch. Glad this is our new local Italian restaurant. Would definitely recommend.

Lovely surroundings, friendly staff, fabulous food, extensive menu. A restaurant worth travelling to for great food , service and atmosphere

We have been here several times and always had a good meal, but decided to try something different than our usual. Both our meals were fantastic, so tasty and fresh. The service was as excellent as always. Highly recommended

always lovely food whenever i go here. Staff are so friendly nd welcoming & always accommodate the customers. I always get the romana pasta & its always beautiful. Id definitely say its one of the nicest italians around🤍

Experience for below average food. Nearly £9 for a glass of wine! Spot the cheese on the garlic bread, under cooked pasta and mushrooms tasted tinned. Will not be visiting again.

Lovely food Lovely staff and great atmosphere and on our door step we will definitely be back.

It was my birthday and they were great with everyone that was there x

Lovely place. Pleasantly atmospheric with smiling and efficient staff.

Great place, fast service, and decent food.

great food well done. Sunday lunch was delicious thank you

Our first time here and I can not fault the place. Staff were amazing and very accommodating, kindly keeping the kitchen open as we booked very last min. We were well looked after and the food was amazing! Will definitely be coming back. The steak was cooked perfectly.

Visited Aroma in Ryton last night. Beautiful food, wonderful staff, welcoming atmosphere. Loved it will most definitely return.

Great meal as usual, Arancini, Valdostana Chicken, Tiramisu 👍 Paolo and hi

Great evening at Aroma, delicious authentic food and fantastic service from Faith and colleagues. We were delighted and grateful that our Guide Dog in Training was warmly welcomed - without this support from forward thinking businesses many blind people would wait longer before receiving a fully trained Guide Dog to open up their lives. Well done to Aroma on this occasion , and to Guide Dog in Training Rita for her exemplary behaviour in the restaurant. We hope we can join you again soon.

There was a group of 20 for our Christmas lunch . What Christmas party has no crackers !! . The turkey lunch was disappointing. 1 slice of turkey accompanied the veg ,the meal was not that hot and no cranberry was offered. Christmas pud was not very hot and neither was the sauce. We did mention the pudding was cold but nothing was done also mentioned no crackers which we had been assured there would be but again no joy. Won't be back in a hurry

Excellent meal for 12 served by attentive staff. Not many people in dining.

A lovely meal. Pizza starter, risotto funghi, homemade Tiramisu. Delightful staff. Just over £20 each!

We are so lucky to have such a great restaurant in Ryton. The old Barclays Bank building has been transformed into a warm, hospitable place to have lunch or dinner. We visit often, for many reasons : Paulo as front-of-house is an excellent host, welcoming and efficient , the chefs in the open kitchen produce reliably great food ( special mention to the Pollo al Pepe and the Caesar salad, best I’ve ever had!) , and good value for money. The special Christmas Day menu looks mouth-watering and well worth considering if you want to be spoiled rather than toiling in your own kitchen! Highly recommend a visit.

Great ambiance, super food and friendly staff. Italian hospitality. Quality food and good portions. happy customer

Lovely restaurant great choice on menu and food is superb highly recommended. Staff very friendly.

My husband had the pork belly he said it was fab and it looked it! I had the pollo el pepe was fab too, couldn't fault the food at all and the staff are very polite and attentive, would definitely recommend

Nice if a bit pricey. Service was very good considering the number of people there

Visited on a Saturday evening as group of 7 everything was perfect. Our 2 year old was very hungry and tired, they were able to get him a big bowl of pasta quickly which saved us from trying to distract a hungry toddler whilst we ordered. We all had starters and main courses and everything was amazing. The wine was also great. We will definitely be back.

Visit here with friends, we've always had excellent food, very friendly and helpful staff, lovely atmosphere. Highly recomnend this place

Beautiful clean restaurant excellent service from all staff members and food is to die for. Overall fantastic experience and highly recommended from Mr Hollywood

lovely food as always and fab staff

Had Sunday lunch here, was gorgeous

Fantastic food and friendly staff! We will be back!

Was not impressed portions very small I had lasagna and there was very little meat just sauce and pasta no salad and for £10 not a good value for money my husband had steak it was £23 that came on a plate and it was just the steak and a tomato half on the plate and a bowl of chips no presentation at all but on a plus said staff really nice

Lovely staff and atmosphere. My choice of food was good.

Excellent restaurant, great food and service. Definitely go again.

Having been here a few times before when in the area visiting family and thoroughly enjoying it, this visit was not a good experience and is best summarised with a simple list. 1. Waitresses should not chew gum when working. 2. If staff are going...

Great atmosphere, fantastic service and delicious food. Highly recommend.

Modern classic decor, food was delicious. Friendly staff.

Wow! We've eaten in Italy and this place was so authentic. Aranchini, amazing meatballs and a twist with harissa chicken spaghetti. But what makes this place is the welcome, the attention to detail and the lovely staff. We'll definitely be back. Our son lives in Newcastle and we'll bring them here too. Thanks for a lovely evening.

really really good, i recommend the romana pasta and apple crumble. Only problem was the portion size, wasn’t full after and i don’t usually eat lots but the portion size was like the amount you would get on a kids menu.

Very good food and service considering we were a very large party.

Fabulous lunch at Aroma today, pizza and pasta were delicious. Very well presented, lovely atmosphere, the food is just perfectly cooked. Pinot blush wine was lovely. Great service, friendly and super helpful, 5 stars.

Small restaurant, friendly staff, fast and efficient The food is of a very high standard and highly recommend. Scallops with pea purée, steak Rossini was the best fillet steak I’ve eaten in a very long time. The lemon sundae was excellent, but my wife’s lemon...

Happened upon the restaurant by chance and it was excellent. Friendly and well trained staff. Quality of service and food well above average. Probably the best experience and value for money in a restaurant during our four weeks in the UK. Suggest you think about reserving a table. Most customers seemed to do that.

There was 14 of us and all had a beautiful meal , the staff were lovely and very friendly.

Lovely food great staff definitely recommend

Had a lovely lunch here. Pleasant staff and pleasant surroundings. Two courses with a drink each for 2, 32 pounds. We will be back.

Love this place, they've really established themselves with some fantastic cooking and a well laid out menu with something for everyone. I would highly recommend Aroma, all the staff are outstanding, very attentive and overall give considered top quality service!

The food here was amazing, so yummy as well as a good & fair price, the staff were lovely and so professional! I really recommend trying here out it was a great experience.

Good food, reasonable prices and lovely staff.

Amazing restaurant and great service. I take my 3 year old daughter here about once a fortnight and I can never fault the place.

Food was ok but restaurant was really cold I had my coat over knees all the time and two others didn't take their coats off. Thought they would have a lunchtime special but didn't.

We were a little sceptical before we went as we took this to be another cheap pizza pasta joint , however we were pleasantly surprised at the friendly service and excellent food . Great little restaurant in the heart of the village ,well worth a...

Went here last Wednesday for some food after work. The place is decorated beautifully and has a very classy vibe. We were greeted and served by Paolo for most of our meal... he's a lovely character, very friendly with a good sense of humour. The other girl working was also very friendly. We had half cheese/half tomato garlic bread, bruschetta and calamari to start. The pizza dough was amazing, light and fluffy and the other starters were very tasty and fresh. For our mains we had pork belly with vegetables and chicken and spinach risotto. Both were delicious, hot and fresh. The belly pork melted in the mouth and was cooked beautifully. We finished our meals with affogato which was presented differently than I've had before... I liked how the espresso came separately for us to pour ourselves and it looked good when it came out. We didn't think to take photos of our other courses but we wish we had. Overall a very lovely meal with very reasonable prices. Thank you to the owner and Head chef Suad for your great hospitality and excellent food. We will definitely visit again 😊

Fantastic experience!! Excellent food and fabulous service. Can't fault!!!

Completely loved our lunch time meal here. The food was outstanding and the service excellent. I cannot fault this place. Really enjoyed our experience!

Food and service both excellent.

My sister and I popped in for lunch this week and it was great. We both had chicken with different sauces and our meals were accompanied by freshly cooked vegetables. Superb. We then had the Apple Crumble and Chocolate Brownie for dessert. Both were beautifully...

Just had a family supper there. Food was very nice. Staff extremely pleasant and not too expensive. Only small complaint was it felt a bit too busy, in the current circumstances, for me.

Absolutely delicious food and top notch staff. Can't fault anything at all. Proper pleased we found this gem of a restaurant.

So grateful to have such a top quality restaurant on our door! Food and service impeccable...thankyou

A group of us visited on a Saturday evening for a birthday meal. Service was excellent, attentive young staff working hard. Can sit and watch the chef busy at it in the open kitchen. The food was lovely and great value. The lamb shank looked...
