Il Girasole Ashington in Northumberland

Dined in on a Friday night from 7.30pm. Food was amazing highly recommend the filleto pepe, both me and my partner had it, steak was hot and cooked to perfection! Best steak we've had in a long time

Great place will definitely going back again .

Had a lovely 3 course meal at dinner time. The service was excellent. Would definitely recommend trying Girasole restaurant.

Such a great restaurant, amazing quality, tasty food, friendly service. So amazing, we used them to cater at our wedding, all our guests were full of compliments for the food.

It's a wonderful place,the people are very welcoming and the cook is just amazing,we totally recommend it 100%. The food is also very good and delicious we can't wait to come again. 🙏🙏🙏

We enjoyed our delicious 3 course evening dinner cooked the authentic Italian way . We can recommend the creamy tomato soup & garlic mushrooms to start & both our fillet steaks were perfect . Lemon cheesecake to finish 😋 Well recommended 👌

Came in for some lunch with the missus, was lovely food and service just what we needed. Would use again when next in the area.

I ate here with some friends and I have to say it was by far one of the best meals I’ve eaten in a long time! Had the Gamberoni as a starter and it was a great choice! Great portion size and the sauce was so flavourful ! I also tried my friends calamari and it was the first time in a long time I’ve had it so perfectly cooked! I then chose the filet steak which was cooked perfectly and very well seasoned! I was then recommended the homemade banana pancakes and they were not wrong, they were phenomenal! The staff were very attentive, warm and welcoming from the moment we arrived to the moment we left! It’s safe to say, I will definitely be returning and bringing more people with me!

I’ve been here twice in the last week. First time with a party of 19. Second as a couple. The staff are so friendly. They managed our orders on the first visit really well with no one sitting waiting. The food is authentic and really well presented. No complaints about the food which I would say is the best I’ve had for a long time. This is a little gem of a place which is being missed by the locals sadly. I will be back!!

Heard good reports about this lovely restaurant. We were not disappointed. Had the 3 course lunch special. Tremendous. Big portions. Friendly staff. Nice clean place. Couldn't fault it. Definitely recommend and will return 👌 👍 👏

Lovely Italian restaurant. Myself and my friend had a meal here on Wednesday as it was her birthday. Can not fault the place. The food was delicious. Will definitely be going back. What shocks me is how many people in Ashington didn't know it' existed. What Italians🤔 they'd say. Think more advertising is needed. Nothing expensive, just a few posters up. Maybe leaflets through doors.

I have been several times the food is always delicious. My son regularly has food delivered, and he says the same.

Poor service, tried through Just Eat, it was pending for 10 minutes so I cancelled. Tried calling the shop, voicemail received. Absolutely poor and a well deserved 1* review for these.

I never graded a restaurant with 5 stars, this is my first time

I don't know why we never left a review, we have been eating here quite a few times. From welcome to goodbye, all the staff are very friendly and professional. The food is absolutely gorgeous, and freshly made. Their chefs really can cook. For being an Ashington restaurant, people are still lucky that the prices are affordable, but given the quality of everything, or had the restaurant been in Morpeth or Newcastle, it would have been a lot more expensive. And it deserves al the praises in the world.

5 of us went for the lunch time, Food was fantastic, staff very friendly the place was immaculate. We will definitely be back

My chicken was superb, but my husband was somewhat disappointed with his steak. It's nicely done out, we went on a quiet night between Christmas and new year

We’ve been a couple of times for food here and everytime it’s been lovely. Food was so tasty. My mushroom soup was creamy with a rich flavour, along with the ravioli. We chose from the Christmas menu and it was around £28 each for 3 courses. Tiramisu is unreal! Pina Colodas are always spot on too 😉 Il girasole is always our go to for a meal out

Enjoyable experience. Food good

First time here and I have zero complaints, food was delicious and the service brilliant. I look forward to coming again.

Absolutely fantastic food will definitely be coming back,if you haven’t been then make it a must

This is the second time we have ordered takeaway munchie boxes and let me tell you they’re the best around! The pizza is unbelievable, probably the best I’ve had, the carbonara is definitely the best I’ve ever had, so tasty and so much bacon in it! The portions are brilliant and it’s never disappointed! The staff have been super friendly as is the delivery driver each time we’ve ordered. Can’t express how much we love the food!

Great food and service, nothing to complain about. Steak was fantastic 👌

Superb, absolutely delicious . The fillet steak was so tasty.

Food was lovely. Pizza was soggy in the middle but tasted really nice. The service was amazing.

Delicious pizzas! Lovely place. 😍

It was a baby shower It was lovely

Had the steak night offer 3 courses for £24.95 excellent value fillet steak was lovely

Incredibly good food, really enjoyed our dinner here! 5 star+

We went for a family birthday and thoroughly enjoyed the food and the friendliest of the staff this was the second time we dined here and we cannot fault this restaurant.

Been here a few times now and always good food and service even back tomorrow night with my friends. Only gripe I would say is on the special menu there are 4 of the 10 pizzas you can NOT get on the special 3 course menu. Asked if could pay a supplement to get the pizza on the special still and told no as all the pizzas i liked not on the special menu. Hence just got a main while my wife got the 3 course special. Perhaps change the menu where you pay extra for the items pizza/pasta not on the special menu so the person can.

We had a lunch time special menu.Pizzas are lovely.will definitely be back.Fab service,lovely staff

Not many in, but food was delicious 😋 and staff were lovely 🥰 would recommend you give it a try😁😁

Chicken was overcooked. Waited an hour for meal. Wine over priced

This restaurant is brilliant, a real gem, best food around by far. We travel to Ashington just for the food here. I have high standards, which are met here. Get yourself down, fully recommend it.

I would definitely recommend, great friendly staff and equally great service and food

Lovely restaurant only problem we had was their was only one waitress and she was run off her feet poor girl trying to get everyone's food to them. So more staff needed I think other than that no problems.

Lunch with friends was very good. We all thoroughly enjoyed our excellent meal and service. Wonderful for Ashington to have this.

Absolutely love this place the staff are warm and friendly and the food is lush, nice to have a decent restaurant in Ash toon.

We really enjoyed our evening, food was nice, good portions and reasonably priced. We would recommend thank you

Had a lovely meal here on a Thursday evening. Food and service top notch. Sadly, it was lacking customers on this occasion. Come on Ashington, support this great place!

Lovely Rumanian staff very pleasant and helpful. Vegetables for my meal ok, not great and my wifes pasta arribiata supposed to be spicy with a kick was not at all! This was a lunch time so, might try an evening meal there in the future

Had a great meal tonight for my wife’s birthday. Food was excellent. Disappointed you had no Grappa !!!! We will be back

We have been here over 30 times the staff are really friendly and the food is absolutely amazing would highly recommend this restaurant

Beautiful food and drinks lovely lasses serving kids loved them Toliets spotless just what Ashington needs 👍

Had a take out, the food was delicious and piping hot.

Went out expecting to have mediocre pasta, well what a very pleasant surprise, turned out it was steak night, had 3 courses which included a fillet steak, I had pepper my partner had dianne, which were both faultless, meals were fabulous and service was excellent, come on the people of Ashington support this wonderful restaurant

Excellent food excellent service staff and chefs are great definitely recommend it

Delicious food -- I highly recommend the risotto! The service was excellent and friendly. They've only been open 1 month and I will definitely be back!

I’ve had several meat feast pizzas from here now. Believe me I’ve had my fair share of pizzas over the years (I’m 40!) These are hands down the most delicious and tasty pizzas I’ve ever had the privilege of devouring. The dough, the crust, the toppings and the sublime taste in every bite. Absolutely amazing 👌👌

Just been for Sunday lunch, unbelievable quality , great staff, amazing food, cheesecake was unreal too. Highly recommend 💯
