Insieme Restaurant in Northumberland

Arrived in seahouses 2 days ago for a week's holiday. Had two overated meals at so called gastro pub . Came here without booking tonight, very busy even on a Monday, but they found us a table. Plenty of choice on menu for all budgets. We both went for merluzzo alla aneto. Delicious . Staff very friendly.

I didn’t really enjoy my experience, we were at a table for 2 near a door at the back of the restaurant. There was a terrible draft and I was cold throughout the whole meal. This wasn’t helped by the fact that my main meal was not particularly warm or tasty. Plate was cold and it was just a large plate of mush. I think I chose wrong ! Lobster ravioli, loooking around other diners did appear happy with their food but for me this was a less than average Italian meal.

Arrived for our booking and staff never asked for our name. Shown to a table and waited 10 minutes to be asked if we wanted a drink, these arrived after a further 5 minutes. Tried to order food as staff passed our table and all we were told was we'll be with you shortly. 25 minutes in the restaurant before our food order was taken and then we were told it would be at least a further 30 minutes plus for food. We left, appalling service!

Visited while staying nearby. Did not book but it wasn't a problem. Staff very attentive. Food amazing & very good value. Beautiful & clean restaurant with lots of choice on the menu plus a specials menu. Would return in a heartbeat.

This restaurant should be number one on trip advisor. Food is amazing and staff lovely even though they are so busy they always have the time for you and a smile

Excellent atmosphere, excellent food, was only spoilt by a customer being very loud and abusive towards staff over a steak not cooked to their liking, the staff handle the situation very well, Iv seen the review they have left which is not true, the rest of the party ate theirs and after not getting a rise from the staff then decided to complain about hers after eating over half of it. Even her family were embarrassed her behaviour. She even walked out of the shouting and sticking to fingers up as they left. The rest of the diners started to clap after they left, relieved to be able to enjoy the rest of meals in peace. Well done to the staff for handling it they way they did,

Terrible food, Terrible service. Sent a questionable steak back twice as it wasn’t cooked correctly. First time I have seen a fillet with lots of fat on it. 4 people ordered chicken dishes that were bland, dry and quite pink in the middle. In the attached picture 4 folks in the group left the main dish. We all complained so they give us the bill of £165 and told us to leave because we complained plus we all still had drinks. We paid the bill and left. Their food is terrible and so is the customer service. Never again to there!

The food here is very good and it’s nice to see a decent restaurant in the area. However, the disappointment was the fact that they charge extra for gluten free options. This is specifically highlighted on the menu, which can add about 10% to the bill. We have required gluten free for over 15 years now, and have never been faced with this at restaurants we have visited. Understand that these options cost more, but it is not good to effectively put a surcharge on a medical condition.

Hidden gem in seahouses, great pasta and pizza, excellent staff, would highly recommend for a lovely dinner

We’ve been coming to this restaurant since it opened but haven’t been since 2019 what a disappointment it was. The restaurant is shabby, seating uncomfortably old and the ladies were tired. One staff member had dirty clothes on and filthy dirty hands and nails 🤮 another had very long hair not tied back! We had starters hubby had pate which was lovely and presented well. I had calamari which as a previous review said under cooked soggy batter and rubbery squid! We both had different pasta dishes hubby ordered penne inseme and I got fettuccine imperial, both were only just warm and sent back! Unbelievably when they were returned they both tasted the same how can that be!!! To add insult to all of this my beef was definitely NOT fillet steak! I called over the waiter who insisted it was and I was just as insistent it wasn’t! Someone else had said the same about their steak but I think trading standards should be the judge. My advice is don’t go find somewhere else to spend your hard earned money. We will never return sadly as we used to love the food here.

We ordered a take away meat pizza and a green salad. It was really delicious. We had a glass of white wine and a beer while we waited for our order to be cooked and that was good. Everyone was very friendly and we are left feeling satisfied. Thank you.

Four years since my last review of this restuarant, although we ate here in 2021 between lockdowns too. No change in the excellent service or in the great food they serve. Unfortunately the menu was a little reduced due to an issue with the gas supply to the cooking range, so no pasta dishes on the menu other than oven baked ones. However there was still plenty to choose from. All had starters, that were excellent and mains cooked to perfection, all good sized portions that left no room for desserts. The lack of pasta dishes was explained to us before being seated at our table, so plenty of time to go elsewhere if we didnt want to stay, unfortunately the gas cooker was serviced that afternoon and a part was required that the engineer didnt have with him. Not the restaurants fault and not fair to mark them down in a review. Others have done. Keep up the good work.

Was really looking forward to a lovely Italian on the last night of our holiday. Got sat down to be told, no pasta due to issues with gas. Such a shame. Reluctantly we left. Maybe next time we will give it another try. 🤷

Decent restaurant where we had a mid week evening meal. We were a group of three and service was steady, they were in no rush to move us on quickly. We shared a couple of starters and had a main course each. No desserts. We had a bottle of wine and the bill came to £35/head. The food was good but not exceptional. A pleasant evening The restaurant was busy but not full.

First day of our holidays, we were welcomed with open arms by very professional staff, we had staters of olives andbread and dips main courses of Gaberoni infuso, pepperoni,salmone evgamber,merluzzo pizzLola,mare e mante, and fittacine carb, a mixture of puddings including tattufu nnocccola and tiramisu, almost pleasant evening at the best Italian restaurant on Northumberland.

Popped in on a very wet Saturday. Ordered 2 waters, a small house white wine and a beer. On ordering the filet steak, I asked what it came with as it wasn’t indicated on the menu. Answer, just the steak and garnish. Order filet steak each (both medium/rare) a portion of chips and a portion of seasonal veg. When the steaks arrived I was shocked at the size (again, the weight isn’t indicated on the menu) and lack of thickness (approx 2cm) Not what you expect for £26.90 each. The steak was almost well done too, not medium/rare as ordered and tasteless. The chips were nice, for £4.50 extra, the veg was bland and watery, also an extra £4. All in all £80.20 for the worst experience, steak I’ve ever had. I pride myself on researching places to eat whilst we’re away so I’m truly disappointed to be writing this, especially when their website states that all steaks are served with chips and veg (screenshot attached) False advertising 😡 Won’t be back in a hurry

Best meal we had during our short break in Northumberland. If we lived nearby it would be a favourite restaurant. Friendly, efficient service. Food tasted freshly cooked and was beautifully presented. My sea bass was delicious, husband's calzone was well filled and much enjoyed. Busy restaurant so best to book but there were a few spare tables the night we went so you might get in on speck. Worth a try.

Pizzas we're freshly made but lasagne and the meat balls were obviously pre made and warmed up. It was luke warm with hot sauce on the top. Not worth the money .

As far as Italian restaurants go, this is just middle of the road food. Had really high hopes as never been before. Food isn’t bad, it just isn’t great. And the house wine is very poor. Really don’t think we’d go again.

Best food in Seahouses! Booked our table for my birthday and I was not disappointed. Our meal was just excellent, cooked to perfection, tasty and could not fault the service. One of the best meals I’ve ever had.

Excellent food and excellent service went for an early birthday dinner. Crab and lobster ravioli worth going for and reasonably priced as well

100% the best Italian meal I have had in a very long time. Also, I am gluten free and there was plenty of choice.

The food here was so nice we went twice in our recent weeks holiday in Seahouses. Great value for money. Beautifully cooked food. Great family atmosphere.

I approached this restaurant with some trepidation based on a number of recent bad reviews & came out wondering whether we had been to the same place. Lively bustling atmosphere, friendly helpful staff who were not afraid to do away and ask if they were...

Pre-booked on the day...staff were very friendly and swift service. Bread and dips was nice but my mushroom risotto was just about the worst I have ever had. Enormous plateful and extremely bland - like a savoury, tasteless rice pudding. The mushrooms were not well...

What a find! A group of 8 of us went on a Sunday night on a recent holiday & really enjoyed it. The waiter was quick to take our drinks order & soon after another took our food order. I have an olive oil allergy...

My family and i called for an evening meal, but we were very disappointed the food was absolutely terrible. The chicken in the penne Alfredo was tasteless and had the texture of cardboard. The sirloin steak was thinner than shoe leather and as tough. The...

I can honestly say this was the best Italian meal I have had in a very long time. Every part of it was delicious. Staff were pleasant and service was good. What a shame I live nearly 200 miles away. A definite choice for anyone...

We walked in and were greeted with a surly waiter who sat us down at our table. Had to catch someone to take our drinks order don't know if we spoilt his flow but he didn't look very happy to take our order. When the...

This was the 3rd time over 4 years that we have chosen to eat here. I booked a month in advance as we had really rated our previous visits and wanted to make sure we got in. We were seated at a table which had...

We picked Insieme for dinner on the first night of a week’s stay in the area, mainly because it was just down the road from where we were staying. We’ve been before. It was OK then and it was OK now. Just the sort of...

Overpriced, average food, poor service. Ordered the fettuccine with king prawn, chorizo and chill. Was bland and swimming in oil. Definitely no chilli 🌶️. My partner had pizza which was dry and hard she said tasted like a supermarket pizza. Disappointed and very pricey. I...

Good food and good service. Food came out quick even though the restraint was busy. The food was hot, tasty and great portion sizes. The asparagus and pancetta carbonara was particularly delicious. Can be slightly noisy as a small place with lots of tables. I...

Booked a table for 4. Shown to a table with a couple of odd chairs at the end on different levels. Little room between tables and waiters kept knocking into me as they came past. Asked to move tables. Staff seemed irritated by this as...

We booked 4 weeks prior our visit/holiday which did not make a difference to our booking. We got seated on a make do table, am I wrong to expect a nice table for 4 to be reserved. We asked to move to another table and...

Great restaurant. Went later around 9pm which was perfect for us as we had a busy day. The service was quick. The garlic bread with olives were delicious. We would recommend.

Love going to Insieme. Friendly welcome and great food.It was a busy night, but everyone very friendly and service was great. Plenty of choice and food is always good. Best affagato anywhere.

We hadn’t booked but had a table for two within 10’ of our arrival. Service was timed very well. Drinks and food orders were taken swiftly. The wine was good, its price OK We only had mains and desert. But… those were delicious. Pasta al...

Really rushed meal. We went to the restaurant at 6pm and were out by 6.55. Our starter arrived within 10 minutes of ordering. My goats cheese bon bons were cold. My partners calamari tasted liked they were cooked from frozen. Within 10 minutes our mains...

My wife, daughter, her husband and their 3 small children all dined brilliantly...they took care to deliver sensible portions to the kids and generous ones to the adults...the staff were friendly, professional and efficlent...we'd definitely recommend it to others and return if we were nearby...

Excellent food in a busy little restaurant. Would especially recommend the sea bass, and the linguine mare. Great selection of puddings too.

This is a poor example of a none Italian having an Italian restaurant. An Italian has no way cooked our meals. The bolagnase tasted something like out of a Heinz spaghetti tin. Very sweet with no flavour at all. Meatballs rock hard like a cricket...

Small busy restaurant, serving very tasty meals and with an efficient service. It's busy for a reason. It's very good. Nicest pasta I have had in a while, and reminded me of holidays

We went here for our anniversary dinner whilst on holiday as the veggie menu looked pretty good. Lots of the staff were very happy and smiley but our waiter unfortunately was not really. He was quite dismissive. Not sure if it was a language barrier...

Found this fantastic Italian restaurant on our two night stay in Seahouses. Our first meal was so good we boojed for the second night. Superb service , superb food, lively atmosphere and great house wine.

We didn't eat here until our last night otherwise we'd have visited more than once. OH proclaimed his seafood pasta as the best he's ever had. I had grilled tuna off the specials and the portion was very generous and well cooked. The dessert menu...

We really enjoyed our meal despite previous complaints of expensive food. The mussels insieme were so good and my husband kept pinching them! The house red was great too! We liked the atmosphere and the staff were very good. The sea bass main was delicious....

The restaurant was very busy when we turned up without a reservation but, despite this, the staff worked very hard to get us a table. Food was really good. You can get your usual Italian pasta/pizza etc, but some of the other main dishes are...

Quick service and great pizzas with limited time before a sunset boat trip. Convenient location near the main Seahouses car park

Lovely family run restaurant in Seahouses. Very good staff & service. Need to book very popular! Pizzas, pasta, chicken dishes etc

Very busy but the food is excellent. Glad we booked in advance as I doubt we would have got in as it was full.

We had a very nice, reasonably priced meal here but the service was offhand to the point of rudeness.

What a lovely experience, a lovely little Restaurant that’s nestled away from Seahouses Main Street it has such a great menu to choose from . The restaurant has a true Italian vibe lots of chatter and welcoming staff . I opted for the Burrata as...

Absolutely lovely food. Two of us had the fish. two had meaty options, everything was so tasty. Proper sized portions & a nice wine list, we had the house wine which was lovely.

What a fantastic restaurant. We had a 4 day stay in Seahouses and visited this restaurant twice. The food is outstanding. We both had fillet steak on our second visit and it’s possibly one of our best meals in a very long time. I cannot...

Visited in a group with friends. Decided to go for Fillet steak - BIG mistake. This restaurant cannot cook steak. First time out my medium rare was most definitely rare so was sent back. They tried to recook the same piece again but still rare...

Visited this restaurant on our final night of the holiday. Starters and mains were sumptuous and we all cleared our plates and felt satisfied.

Ate here twice whilst staying in the area, good choice on menu. Food very tasty and good portion sizes. Staff friendly and professional, very busy on a Saturday so good idea to book.

Again like others I have read the glowing reviews…but not our experience!! Ok a busy Saturday and not booked as just arrived in Seahouses but rushed into uncomfortable echoing upstairs with loud music and probably the most rude and dismissive service we have seen! Asked...

Something for everyone on the menu! Squid & scallops for starters, scallops were particularly good. Perfectly cooked seabass for main. Would definitely eat here again on our next trip to Seahouses

We were in Seahouses for our 49th. We actually honeymooned there. So somewhere to eat on the Saturday night of our holuday. Found this restaurant which we'd not seen before and booked in. We were well looked after and there was something for everyone to...

If it wasn't for the fact that we had run out of holiday, we would have gone more (2 consecutive nights). The food was excellent and the service good. The choice from the menu is extensive and will satisfy all tastes. Highly recommended, a real...

If the service was as good as the food this would be a great place, but unfortunately the service was not good. The waiting staff are ignoring the customers and instead they are wondering around aimlessly and at one point 2 staff members were laying...

Ordered some takeaway pizzas from here and they were very good. Ordered and ready in under 20 minutes.

Walk up on a busy Thursday night and still offered choice of two different tables. Was busy but still a very personal service by the owner himself. Good starters of Bucatto and assorted breads. Friendly and fun service. Good house red and reasonable prices throughout....

Seven of us here for dinner, good start with starters and drinks, unfortunately main courses took about 90 minutes after we arrived at 8 o’clock, food OK but service poor.

Absolutely wonderful! Food was delicious - great choice on the menu and excellent prices. So many different dishes, lots of choice even for my fussy daughter! Loved the seafood selection. Fast and friendly service even though they were very busy. Very clean and nice surroundings....

OMG the BEST Italian restaurant in or near Berwick upon tweed . The guys that own it are very nice and friendly, food 10/10 so tasty 😋. We were on holiday from Scotland and I’m glad we went to this place everyone should visit if...

Distinctly average. Can’t really say more than that. Food was very average, pizza was nearly raw. Rest of the food was just a bit bland and uninspiring. Won’t be coming back.

Arrived 18.45 without booking, no problem getting a table. Soon started to fill up though. Was shown to our table and drink order soon taken. When drinks arrived food order taken. We have been caught out before when no vegetables with meat dishes so asked...

Great evening, the food was delicious. We would definitely return . Good choice of food. Pasta excellent

Very quiet on a Sunday evening but bet it gets busy in summer. Lovely place, we both had pizzas and a generous inventive green salad.

My wife & I visited this restaurant & it was very quiet being late Jan. It still had a nice ambience & the staff were attentive & friendly. We both had starters & pasta dishes, chicken & beef & both were beautiful & were big...

Lovely meal at Insieme, Seahouses. Chicken wings and calamari to start, both very tasty and well cooked. Pizza and pasta main courses were both excellent. Friendly staff, reasonable price.

Lovely simple food cooked v well. Crisp tasty calamari to start. Not chewy in the slightest. Wife had huge portion of v tasty chicken wings Pasta dish and a huge pizza for main dish. Both excellent. Their website needs updating. Says happy hour til 7pm...

Had a lovely meal. Food a little bit different and beautifully presented Sadly it was served on cold plates which meant the food got cold very quickly, would make such a difference if served on heated plates The waitress was very pleasant but could do...

Lovely, family friendly restaurant, with very tasty menu options. My stuffed aubergines, and seabass/mussels/prawn dish were absolutely delicious, and my husband and daughter raved about the tomato pizza garlic bread, and the lasagne, bolognaise. Service was quick and efficient, and my only slight gripe is...

Lovely location, very clean, calming relaxed ambience. Pleasant staff. The menu is simple traditional uncomplicated food. We had salami pizza, fungi pizza and garlic and tomato sauce pizza bread. This was pizza done right. Thin crispy, nicely charred in places, well balanced sauce and creamy...

Enjoyed our meal at Insieme. We were made to feel welcome and the service was good. Food was of a good standard, fresh and tasty.

Fantastic food tonight for my 40th! Nipped in after a visit to banburgh castle and there was 4 of us all very hungry, 3 courses which were all massive and very very well cooked and drinks , £108 was great value for what we had!...

Very welcoming lovely seafood linguine dish . Good choice on the menu service very good . It was busy enough to create a nice atmosphere

Booked an early dinner. The place was all but full when we arrived. Shown to our table within seconds. Starters and mains for my wife and I were all excellent. Well cooked, well presented. Service was excellent. Highly recommended.

This Italian restaurant, tucked away behind shops on Seahouses' main street, is a real gem. We were spoilt for choice with an excellent menu and all our choices were presented beautifully . On the night we went, the place was full and we were glad...

Fantastic restaurant, which always delivers on quality food and service. It is our favourite Italian restaurant in the north and it is always a pleasure to revisit.

Walked in the day before to book, and make sure we had a downstairs table, as upstairs is not a good setting. . Turned up to a nice welcome, and were promptly shown to our table. Service was good, even though it was busy with...

We were recommended this restaurant by family who had visited on holiday and we weren’t disappointed on our visit here! Delicious home made Italian breads and our pasta meals were lovely. A busy place so book first if you don’t want to miss out !

A warm welcome, very attentive service and delicious food. We went twice and Tani and the team remembered us and give excellent service. We would recommend this restaurant and intend to return on our next visit.

The food was amazing and the staff are excellent. It's a very popular restaurant. The only complaint I could make is that it was very warm in there.

We had a lovely evening, the service was excellent, very friendly and just the right level of attentiveness. Our food was really nice, beautiful cod dish and pasta was very tasty, lovely chips and garlic bread. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this restaurant.

We had a good meal here - one of us had pizza and the other vegetarian lasagne. The latter was really unusual as it was made with butternut squash and it was very tasty. The portion though was quite small. The pizza was very good....

Was recommended to try Insieme by a friend. Sadly, the experience which we had wasn't as good as theirs. I'm not sure if it's just because we have high expectations, but I've go to say, this is one of the worst Italians I've had in...

Excellent, rarely have been served with such high quality cuisine at such reasonable prices. Highly recommended.

Visited as have had nice meals here before- however seated downstairs with more atmosphere and interaction with staff. This visit- sat upstairs next to large gorilla statue! Jo atmosphere or attempt to make diners feel at home. Decor dated. Food very average this visit and...

Nice food BUT the service wasn’t great. The staff seemed a little rude and stressed and the portion sizes were awful. We booked a table after eating here last year and we were really sorry as there are better restaurants in Seahouses. It’s not cheap...

Our annual visit to Insieme did not disappoint. The food was good, the service was good and the prices are reasonable. A good dining experience.

9 of us dined on a Sunday night. The food was amazing and the staff very friendly. Everything came out the same time, organised very well. The decor of the restaurant was very welcoming.

visited here for a birthday celebration. The food was excellent. Grilled sirloin cooked to perfection as was the plain fillet. The lamb shank melted in the mouth cooked in red wine jus and mash was beautiful as was the slow cooked porchetta, belly pork soft...

On arrival the place was so hot we almost left and probably should have. The starter was OK but one of the main courses, a risotto, was undercooked and bland. The service was also very slow.

Visited here with my partner and it was simply wow. Lovely ambience and both the service and food was exceptional. Will definitely return!

Arrived at Insieme for a booked table and were met by the host. The table wasn’t immediately available but we were sat down and given menus to browse. Shortly after we were shown to out table which was situated very well, a nice intimate table...
