A huge thank you to all the amazing staff at Bellinis for our party of 17 last night. Food and service was fantastic. The restaurant was so busy but staff were so attentive. Everyone commented on the lovely experience.

Wow. We attended here for my Son's 17th birthday on the recomendation of a work colleague. My mother is medically gluten free, not a life choice gluten free. As sufferers will know any trace of gluten and she'll be violently unwell. However I'm pleased to say this place really looked after her. She had chips for the first time in 18 months as normally places can't guarantee the fryer is completely seperate. These were the nicest gluten free chips she's ever had. I tasted them too and they were delicious. On arrival when my Mother was talking to the waiters she enquired about chips and was told that as they'd have to heat the oil in a fresh pan it would take at least 30 mins so they started them straight away and managed to make them in time to have as a starter. My Father and son had potato skins which were cooked and salted perfectly, unlike some other places where they are dripping in oil. My eldest son had bruscheta to start which he said was marvellous. For main course we ordered a gluten free ham and mushroom pizza, a margherita pizza, a bolognese with chicken pizza, lasagne, penne al forno and a gamberoni pasta mix that my wife requested as she couldn't decide between 2 dishes! Wow. everything was just fantastic. It's the first time we've been here and we will definitely be back There was 9 of us. We had 2 bottles of wine, soft drinks, 3 starters, 9 main courses and that came to £175 including a tenner tip. Which for 9 I thought was vert good value. We'll defo be back here soon and I hear they do great Sunday lunches too! A word of warning - it gets busy! I booked o Tuesday and had to settle for 4.45pm as they had nothing for 9 heads after that. I'm pleased we tried it out,

Attended here with a group of friends. Restaurant was packed with a decent atmosphere. I ordered a flat white coffee for my beverage and it was weak and tasteless. My starter of a chicken bruschetta was quite nice, but quite a small portion size. My main was really disappointing. I ordered the seabass, the fish was cooked ok but it was accompanied with a tomato sauce with calamari rings in it. The calamari was rubbery and had a strange taste. They were accompanied by a few mussels which were fine. The main was accompanied with seasonal type, vegetables, broccoli, carrots, which absolutely didn’t go with the tomato sauce. There were also a couple of roast potatoes which were completely undercooked. Generally just a strange meal that wasn’t very tasty, not worth £19.99. Friends mainly had pizza which looked fine, but nothing amazing.

I attended this restaurant with a friend. We had booked our meal for 7.45 pm. We had starters and main course and irish coffees. Although the food was nice, we were rushed between courses. My friend wanted some garlic bread to take home but was told that the chef had gone home, kitchen closed at 10 pm on the dot. People in the restaurant were still eating their meals. I asked the waiter why it was closed when people were still eating even some with their main course and the kitchen was closed to which he said it was the chef's hours it was home time for him. I find this appalling. in any good restaurant the chef would stay until all customers had finished in case they wanted something different or extra. Good service and customer care is essential in this business. The chef and the staff just wanted you in and out as it was closing up. I have been to this restaurant a few times and it is not as packed as it used to be and atmosphere not as good and you are rushed by staff because they want to be home. I will be going elsewhere in future where I am more valued.

The food was delicious, I had the mussels for starters and my girlfriend had a chicken bruschetta. For mains we both had a pizza I had the Bellini, consisting of olives, Spinage and caramelised onions, this was delicious but due to the carmalesied onions I found it slightly sweet, thankfully the olives and the chilli I got as an extra helped with this. Though this is more a personal preference not a fault of the restaraunt. My girlfriend was very happy with her padrino pizza also. My only fault, which is quite a big one is this is not necessarily a place for couples, due to their tasty food and quick efficient service it is very popular, meaning it is very loud and seems to gravitate towards groups of people. This was a shame is my girlfriend is partially deaf. I wouldn't come back again for a "couples experience" but look forward to returning with the kids!

Disappointed. We were seated in the bar area (which was not like a work canteen without any ambiance and very loud) although there were tables free in the main dining area. The bar area is stark and uncomfortable with no resemblance to the main dining area. The service was poor and the staff were not friendly and there was not one smile or pleasant comment. The food was ok but I’ve had better. On a side note one set of diners left without paying. Feel we paid a lot of money to eat in a bar. Have learned from our mistake and would never recommend and certainly will not return to Bellini’s.

Looking for somewhere to eat came across this resteraunt on trip advisor as the top rated. Couldnt remember where it was as I'm local and suddenly realised which one it was. I'd eaten here as a group last year.I don't have anything particularly bad to say about it but my wife and I left and said to each other "Meh, not really up to much that" but seeing it as the highest rated totally knocked me off as to which resteraunt it was on about. So just saying, don't get your hopes up for anything special.

I had the sea bass which was served with potatoes and prawns in a creamy sauce and a side of beautifully cooked veg. My husband had orange glazed salmon in drambuie sauce also delicious. My daughter is vegan so she just had tomato and vegetable pasta which was also lovely. It would be nice for future visits to see another vegan option. We will be back.

The party sampled a variety of main courses off the menu and everyone appeared to be very satisfied. I had a pizza and the ingredients tasted very fresh. My wife had a risotto which she commented was one of the best she had ever had. A big thank you to the staff who worked very hard to make the meal really special. Next time I will have to make such I have enough room for one of the Calzone's which looked absolutely amazing and really large in size.

We decided to eat at Bellini's at the last minute. There is a dedicated car park but I guess it could get full quickly given how popular the place is. It was getting busy at 1730 so booking is advisable. There is an open kitchen and the whole restaurant had a nice atmosphere. The staff were excellent throughout our visit. The food was simply fantastic - our group had lasagne, calzone, garlic bread and a 'normal' pizza for the kids. The food was fresh and arrived quickly considering how busy they were. There was a happy hour food option (until 1845 I think) but the (full) prices were very reasonable. The staff were very helpful when there was a mix-up with the bill. Highly recommended.

Lovelt strong smell of garlic as we approached. Extensive menu with a great choice plus a lunchtime special. Food was served fairly quickly and was piping hot. I thoroughly enjoyed by risotto de gamberoni. A risotto with smoked haddock and tiger prawns, it was delicious. Everybody else's meals looked equally tasty. It was a lovely meal and not expensive.

We went for an early dinner on a Friday evening. The restaurant was packed but that was due to it being happy hour (we should have checked times) but managed to get a table as it was the end of the happy hour so I would advise booking a table if you are going between 4 and 6 on a weekend. Ask for a table away from the kitchen as it is very noisy there. We got sat right by the kitchen and as it’s open it’s all you can hear!

Visited today for Sunday lunch as a party of 3. We were seated by what I presume was the manager who was lovely and efficient however that’s where it stopped. We had to ask to order, there seemed the be too many staff on the floor, albeit the place was quietening down so they were probably needed earlier on, however they were just dawdling- not a good sign having to ask when this is the case. One lad I think maybe was training as we asked to order and he wandered off. So we asked another who pretended to not hear us then wandered over and asked if we were ready. Anyways. The drink I asked for didn’t turn up and we had to ask the same lad again where it was, this time adding another drink to the list. We waited approx 20 mins for what I think was full fat coke (I asked for diet) or a cheap brand diet alternative. I asked if it was definitely diet as it had a lemon in (those who have worked in bars/restaurants know its lemon in full fat, lime in diet, hence asking) the food took an additional 10/15 minutes and I have to say was quite disappointing. Nothing to massively complain about except generally small portions, chewy beef, small Yorkshire, just warm etc etc. No one checked on us so we couldn’t reiterate this to anyone. No one asked if everything was ok when clearing the plates either. Desserts also took a substantially long time to arrive and again staff just wandering and paying too much attention to what I assume is their favourite customers/regulars.

We had dinner here as a pre-Christmas celebration. The food was fabulous. I had fish cakes for starter with a delicious chilli jam. I then had salmon with a tomato sauce and veg. I ended with frozen lemon cake. Each course was superb. We all thoroughly enjoyed the food. The drinks were good too and all reasonably priced. Never had a bad meal at Bellini.

Booked a table for two for a birthday meal but unfortunately arrived just as the happy hour crowd were just finishing up (5.45pm Saturday.) The restaurant was very busy with groups and families, which is understandable. I think next time I would book a table for later to avoid the noise and hustle. The staff were very good at clearing the tables and attentive to our needs. The food was good from a varied Italian menu and reasonable priced.

I have visited a few times and I have got to say the food is up there with the best Italian restaurants I have ever been in. My mam and dad swear by the Pil Pil to start saying it’s the best they have ever had and I can say that the lasagne is one of the beat I have ever had. Nice atmosphere and bigger than you think. I would definitely recommend

Had a great meal at Bellini last night with my partner. The menu offers various options and the prices are affordable.

It’s quite some time since I visited this restaurant. My reasons for not continuing my patronage was the menu never changed, and it’s extremely noisy, to the point where it’s impossible to have a conversation. Good conversation being a major part of visiting a restaurant as well as the food.

Visited this restaurant numerous times the service is always very good. A varied menu suits all tastes, food is always to a high standard. Good choice of wines. Prices are reasonable for the high quality.

Serve lovely choice of food in a modern rather than bohemian environment. Table service was great and wine delicious. Pretty spacious, so sure to get a table. Keen to return.....

The place was packed but they still found me and my wife a table for Sunday lunch. The dinners looked and were really good but I just fancied a lasagna and it was excellent. Nice place, so much so we booked a table for 8 on Saturday night for my sister in laws birthday. looking forward to it!!

Was visiting friends in Sunderland and they brought us here for lunch. Lovely lunch, good portions at a reasonable price. Even though a weekday lunch was quite busy so obviously popular. I had a goat cheese starter which I enjoyed and then polpotte (Spagetti & Meatballs). Pasta was cooked just right. I didn’t have Pizza but they looked great. We all enjoyed our lunch and we will pass this way again, would definitely recommend.

We have eaten at Bellini's on several occassions and have to say the food is always of very good quality. Service is always good. Always consistent on quality and service. Would definitely recommend.

We were a party of 12 celebrating a 60th birthday. The staff were very attentive and together with the kitchen crew were able to provide a seamless service with very little waiting at all. Our table was very close to the kitchen which is open to the restaurant - a very commendable bit of openness and transparency but for us was a drawback in terms of noise levels. If you want conversation ensure your table is not near the kitchen.

We have been visiting this restaurant for many years and always found the food to be very good with friendly staff who were always helpful and efficient We returned to the restaurant for the first time since the restrictions were lifted and the food served up was average at best. The staff who tended to our table were very poor and in particular one waiter who was both rude and abrupt. The people on the next table to ourselves also voiced their disappointment about the food and the rude behaviour of the waiter mentioned We won’t be going back as their are plenty of other Italian restaurants in the city who serve far better food and provide superior service from their staff
