Excellent food , wonderful staff . The menu is extensive and everyone should be accommodated . Food was fresh and the portions were big. The staff were so welcoming and kept checking everything was ok . The only negative for us was the very loud music , didn’t give a restaurant vibe , more a club vibe and we couldn’t talk to family as we would have been shouting , this is the only reason we wouldn’t return which is disappointing as everything else was top notch .

Terrible service on Sunday lunch. When we arrived at 3.30pm the only time a member of staff engaged with us was when they asked if we had a booking. We had barely sat down and our order was rushed. The food came and it had clearly been sat all day, no member of staff came back to the table to see how things were, if we needed more drinks etc. we were sat next to the bar/tills and come 4pm there were multiple members of staff stuffing roast potatoes and Yorkshire pudding into their mouths in full view of the whole restaurant, they couldn’t even be bothered to try and do it in private in the kitchen. We left after 40 minutes and as we walked out the manager looked at us and didn’t even say bye or thank you. I have been a few times before and enjoyed it but today the staff just verged on rude. Terrible customer service.

Tasty food and yummy cocktails. Staying locally in Peterlee, we wanted somewhere local but nice to eat. We booked by phone. We arrived are were shown to our table, which was a table for 2 but positioned right between 2 much larger, busier tables. We asked to move to the bar part of the restaurant and that was no problem and we sat in a curved booth and just had to order at the bar, which was fine for us. The antipasto sharer was AMAZING and then I had the salmon tagliatelle based on someone else's review and my husband had the prawn with tomato/ chilli (can't remember the name). It was lovely. We shared a garlic bread and I also had a berry daiquir. Yum. Reasonable prices for both food and drink.

We reserved a table on Thursday, confirmed it with the restaurant and then a whole day later we get a phonecall saying we might have to give up our table if it gets busier. Whats the point of making a reservation then? We now had to change our plans cause the restaurant canceled our own reservation just a day before coming. Not taking my business here anymore

Live pretty local to this place but had never been for a meal. Last time I was in this building it was still the Oaklands pub, that’s how long ago it was. Bar area was very nicely laid out, good selection of beers & lagers to choose from. Restaurant area is small than the bar area, but that just makes it more cosy. We were sat at a booth which I always prefer rather than the ‘open table’ setting. Starters and mains didn’t take too long to arrive, good portions and presented well too. Absolutely nothing to complain about. All plates went back empty. We’ll definitely be back again soon hopefully !

We live within walking distance and had been a few times for an adhoc tea, which was just OK, but nothing to rave about.Today we booked for Sunday lunch - it was so busy we couldn’t get a table until 3pm, which we were happy with. We each chose roast beef, which was beautifully cooked, and there was plenty of it. The Yorkshire puddings were large and fluffy. There was plenty of mash ( which I don’t eat), roast potatoes, and roasted carrots on the plate, accompanied by separate dishes of perfectly cooked broccoli, cauliflower, red cabbage, swede, and extra gravy. The staff, whilst very busy, were pleasant and professional. We were last out of the restaurant, and felt we should leave to allow the staff to reset the tables, but were told to take our time because there was no rush. So we lingered over the very moreish Irish coffees. We couldn’t fault the food or service, and the final bill was very reasonable. We’ll definitely visit again

Lovely roast and patient staff members, however, the prices are not student friendly, and they do not offer student discounts, as well as not offering a blue light discount for nhs staff workers etc. Moreover, this place has no vegan options in the menu. The best they could do was just serve a plate full of boiled veggies....which isn't the best. If you eat meat and are ready to splurge for one night then do come to this place, but if not don't, wouldn't recommend for vegans/vegetarians.

Visited Lucianos yesterday for a family birthday. We had to pre-book and pay £5 deposit each. My partner and I ordered the classic Parmesan. Last time I had it here the bottom was burnt. I don’t normally complain but yesterday’s Parmesan was the worst I have ever had. Hardly any cheese on it as you can see on photo and dry as sticks. My brother ordered a chicken burger, and by the time his was brought out everyone had nearly finished their meals. My Dad was half way through eating his meal and they brought out the sauce that accompanied his meal. It should have been brought out with the meal. Was not impressed!

Such good reviews but unfortunately that was definitely not our experience. We visited here to celebrate our wedding anniversary. To begin our starter plates were taken away whilst I was still finishing it. Was not impressed but let it go. Secondly I ordered the seafood risotto, which I was really looking forward to, however I discovered after starting this that it was absolutely swimming in oil and the waitress was in agreement. The risotto was removed from the bill but did not make up for the whole disappointing experience.

Lovely setting, a decent atmosphere The food was excellent, and only the complaint was that the service was poor, although I think it may have been that they were short staffed . Waited a long time for dessert, and most of the party decided not to bother. When asked for coffees to end the meal, the staff were unable to offer as the machine had been switched off Put a bit of a dampener on the evening. It's such a shame .

We booked Lucianos for four families - 8 adults and 7 children - to get together on Christmas Eve back in October. We were asked to submit our food order a week before Christmas Eve which we all did and were told we could order from any menu apart from the lunchtime one which was fine for us. We had spoken to the restaurant twice since the original booking and had received email confirmation of our food order when we called the order in. However, at 4:15pm on the 23rd of December we received a phone call from Lucianos to say that we couldn’t have the food we had ordered - we could only order from the Sunday Lunch menu. We had specifically chosen somewhere where we wouldn’t have Sunday lunch knowing we would all be having Christmas dinner the day after. I was absolutely furious that they had waited until the very last minute to do this to us. Although the person on the phone apologised it was definitely not acceptable so late in the day and especially after 2 months of booking. It was like they couldn’t be bothered to honour our booking which was ridiculous as most of the party had ordered steak at £27.95 a pop. We cancelled the booking and after frantically phoning around found somewhere to accommodate such a large party. I am so disappointed in Lucianos especially as we’ve been a few times and the food was lovely - service not so much. I will definitely not be going back and would advise anyone looking to make a booking for a special event to go somewhere else.

Face like a slapped arse and an attitude to match! Booked in for a function which was all fine but told the week of we had to pay an extra £100 to reserve the booking and had to be out at a certain time as had another booking. Obviously none of this would have been an issue had it been communicated in advance as had people travelling from Yorkshire and Scotland. When we spoke with Steph the manger she told us this was for white table clothes (BTw just the buffet table which had paper table clothes), confetti (which we did not have) and use of the room (we had an area in the room). Stephs attitude was shocking throughout the day and instead of trying to welcome us to stay it felt she couldn’t do enough to get rid of us. Took our business of 40 people elsewhere to the rugby club 👍🏼 Food was good however did not accommodate for dietary requirements as promised.

Amazing food and excellent location. Upon arrival our group of 20+ were greeted by both Chris and Stacey at the bar - ready for the challenge they stepped up and graciously took our multi-layer extensive drink order. We ordered a variety of wine, beers and cocktails to start with, no stone left unturned in the expedittion of beverage discovery. We pre-ordered our food just to to the size of our group and we weren't disappointed. Matt helped with the table service and like an open dam, at the flow of food followed smoothly. From starter to main course to dessert - we enjoyed steaks (each cooked to individual perfection) to sea bass (that reminded us of holidaying in the med). My personal favourite the hand cooked chips and rump steak. Continuing we ordered desserts spontaneously and weren't disappointed. From Almond / Orange cake, to sublime chocolate brownie and a variety of cheese cakes - heaven really is a place on earth. We ended the group meal with Limoncello while enjoying the sun outside. We would definitely go back again and look forward to Chris, Stacey and Matt welcoming us back like old friends.

So disappointed with our Sunday dinners yesterday. There was 9 of us, 4 children and 5 adults. 2 of the dinners were roast beef and they couldn't eat the meat it was that chewy. Veg was hard not enjoyable. We were offered a refund on one of them as the meat wasn't touched. The smallest of our party (nearly 2 year old) didn't order any food he picked off us. So only 8 meals were ordered altogether. With the 1 refund we should have only been paying for 7 meals and 3 desserts. However we got charged for 10 meals and 4 desserts. We had to go back 3 times to sort out the bill. Its not the first time people have been overcharged so be warned check your receipt.

There were 19 of us booked in for a meal. They gave us a room to ourselves. We had pre-ordered our food so we had no waiting to be served. The food was excellent, the staff were friendly and polite and the price was reasonable. All in all a very good experience. Highly recommend it

WOW! I've been hearing rave reviews about this place for ages and finally made it down and it exceeded all expectations. We had the smoked salmon with Avo pancake & asparagus and both were flawless. I used to run a brunch service in a restaurant and so i appreciate the perfect cooking, timing, seasoning and presentation of everything. The smoked salmon was incredible quality, avo perfectly seasoned and asparagus cooked perfectly. Generous portions all round, flavour combos and the pancakes were delicious. 11/10! Can't wait to go back already. Beautiful interior, and the owners and staff are just a delight, so friendly - cannot recommend highly enough. Looking at the sweet pancakes that were coming out of the kitchen i'll be back to try the whole menu. :) Great coffee too. New fav in Durham. An absolute gem of a place. So cute. x

What can we say, the team brought Luigi (the Tuk) to our wedding, the gests LOVED the waffles. We had a choice of ice cream and sauces and every guest had a huge grin on their face! This was a spectacular ending to the night and the pictures we got with the Tuk are great. Highly recommend this for your event.
