I ordered the linguine de mare and had terrible food poisoning the very next day. I was informed this was due to the mussels. I reached out to the team who gave a very nonchalant response. Very disappointed and would not return.

Decided to go to this Italian because it was 2 minutes from our hotel. Staff were very friendly and the meals we ordered exceptional, especially the Fettuccine with fillet steak. The atmosphere was very relaxed and service was very good. Definitely worth a visit if you're in Newcastle.

Third time visiting Insieme and it won't be the last. Celebrating my husbands birthday and the meal was absolutely amazing. The surf and turf was the best he had ever had and the Chicken Al Timo was brilliant. As for dessert...... wonderful!!!! If we had had room, we would have had seconds.

I have just come back to my hotel after an excellent late dinner at Insieme with a group of friends. As soon as we walked in, we were greeted by our lovely waiter. He was both attentive and entertaining. The menu was full of delicious food, it was difficult to choose, but we managed. Everyone in the group then received a gorgeous meal. The food was full of flavour and clearly made freshly on premises. I had a gorgeous seafood ravioli and the best tiramisu I have had in a while. Even though we got to the restaurant quite late, we never felt rushed. We would 100% recommend coming here if you are looking for an authentic Italian meal in a relaxed environment with warm, welcoming staff. Thank you!

Our second visit here more than lived up to the first. The food is outstanding in both range of choice and quality. We covered all bases with pizza, pasta and steak and all were high-quality, freshly cooked and delicious. The service is the icing on the cake in this place though. So friendly, attentive and good humoured. This is a really wonderful restaurant in the heart of the city.

Never again. Food is delicious but severely overpriced. £14.50 for a pasta dish with barely any prawns and salmon as advertised. None of the asparagus included as stated on the menu. I’m certain the positive reviews detail a completely different restaurant because I will not be retuning again. Split the bill with a friend only to be confronted minutes later by the manager themself, interrupting our conversation to ask how much we paid, implying we didn’t pay the full amount on the bill. Maybe take a few minutes to actually check the total before coming at your customer so directly. Unbelievably appalling and rude. Possibly the worst customer service I’ve experienced in years. I do appreciate the staff member who offered Parmesan on my pasta but other than that, will not recommend.

We visited here a few weeks ago randomly for a family meal. I found the service a bit odd, some of the waiters hover over your table and made it feel uncomfortable. I also found the food overpriced. The pizza was fine but nothing special. Portions of pasta were very small for the cost and we were left thinking we could eat more. Probably wouldn't return as there are far better Italians and pizza restaurants.

Pizza was overcooked, looked like it was a pre baked base , and steak was meant to be sirloin. Was more like a ribeye with all the fat throughout the steak. the waiter tried to say that's the way sirloin is. As a former chef, this is not true in the slightest ,

My wife and I popped in here looking for somewhere to eat on a Thursday night. Surpassed all of our expectations! I had bruschetta to start which was good and my pizza as a main was out of this world - thin, crispy with a touch of burn to the edging. We got some chips to share which were fantastic - proper homemade the like of which you rarely get now. The chap serving was a really great guy as well. A wonderful find and would highly recommend.

Honestly sat at the table trying to find a fault, after 20 min I gave up. This establishment is fantastic, gaz was extremely welcoming and the service was fast. The star of the show was the classic pizza, I usually don't like rocket, and thought that would be the weak point of my meal, I was wrong, the pizza toppings were perfectly balanced, the tomato sauce was as authentic as you can get, the dough was exceptional and left me wishing for a bigger stomach so I can have another. Absolute bargain at the price. My favourite local Italian is going to have a hard time living up to these guys standard on my next visit.

Amazing experience! The pizza is probably some of the best pizza I've ever had, highly reccomend. The pasta was very nice too (can't remember the name) but came with salmon in a vodka sauce. If I was to be highly critical I would say the Prawns were slightly over cooked and I was disappointed the pasta was not fresh. However, I understand making vast amounts of pasta is very time consuming and completely understand why they don't. The waiter we spoke to, who I assume was the GM or at least head waiter was extremely nice and fun! He gave us some absinthe after my partner revealed Polish. Exceptional service and even better good and hope to return tomorrow!

Unfortunately the food here was tasteless, well apart from the garlic bread with 🌶️. That said the garlic was a bit bitter. Italian food is normally my favourite because it has lots of flavours. This food tasted as though it had no seasoning. The waiting staff were all pleasant and did take 15% off the bill. I would have preferred better food at full price.

Great little restaurant with really friendly staff and a relaxed atmosphere. Everything happened when it should without feeling rushed or neglected, all with a smile. Started with polpette piccante, tender and moist meat with a delicious tomato sauce, accompanied by a very tasty Primitivo. Main course was amazing, porchette on mashed potatoes with an amazing rosemary gravy with a side of fresh vegetables. Meat was melt in the mouth with crispy crackling. Lovely chat with head man, very engaging and friendly. May be out of the way of the centre but we’ll worth a visit, I will definitely go again next time I’m in town.

Nice surroundings, staff were aloof...three men that appeared to be preoccupied by something going on at front of the restaurant. Food was vile...absolutely vile....it tasted sour and when I complained to the rather aloof waiter he mumbled that perhaps not all people enjoy the same dishes....it was clear to me that he wasn't interested in listening to my complaint. I paid begrudgingly and left....never again. Avoid at all costs!!!

The food itself was sooooooo nice. The mushroom truffle was soooo gorgeous- very tasty had nothing like it. The hand cut chips were so nice flavour and texture - I really loved them.

We called ahead and explained the situation as it was a deal breaker as to whether that person could go if they couldn't accommodate. Well what can I say. The manager listened to what we needed and assured us they would be able to help. They went above and beyond and over delivered. Absolutely amazing. Staff are fantastic, food amazing and the manager came over numerous times to make sure everything was ok. 100% would recommend this fantastic place.

I had a very disappointing experience at this restaurant. When I arrived, the employee who greeted me didn’t even bother to communicate properly. She simply led me to a table without saying a word, and then left me waiting there for several minutes without any explanation. Her body language was incredibly rude and unwelcoming, which made the whole experience uncomfortable. Basic courtesy and good service go a long way, but unfortunately, I didn’t experience any of that here. It was a frustrating visit, and I won’t be returning.

I googled the best italians in jesmond and to of the list was Florence. When we walked in there were two other tables eating, and felt very empty, not a great sign. We ordered the King Scallops to start, what turned up were Bay Scallops. The sauce they were served in was so salty it was inedible. I asked for them to be taken away. For main I shared a Bolgna pizza and Carbonara pasta with my daughter. When ordering I asked for a side of Jalepenos, to be told later they had none. The pizza was also very salty, and the carbonara had no sauce and overcooked pasta. Thanks, but no thanks!
