Santinni in County Durham - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

This is such a lovely restaurant, we love it so much we have now become regular attendees. We take our grandchildren as a treat on a regular basus and they love it so much.

Wife's 60th Birthday party of 24 all went well and thank to the young lady who waited on us very attentative and polite 😀

Family party of 26 food was amazing all served quickly and service was excellent would defo recommend this restaurant

Great choice of food on the menu means there is something for everyone. Lovely food at affordable prices

Been coming here for years today was awful swearing shouty women and a kid with a kindle full blast watching a movie on another table . Food bland at best wont be back in a hurry

Had a great anniversary dinner, the staff are fantastic. Definitely going again. The food is always at a great standard.

We always love going to Santinni’s it’s a friendly local welcoming restaurant which serves good food and drink.

Nice restaurant and friendly staff, food was good but not as good as other Italians I've had. Still worth a visit and I will be back sometime in the future.

Good food and service. Would definitely recommend.

Do not come here if you value conversation, your ear drums, or the ability to actually hear the wait staff or for them to hear you. They had a live musician and some genuine intent to make your ears bleed. Her performance was fine but what’s baffling is the sound. You couldn’t hear anything. It actually left my ear bleeding from the intensity of being sat besides a speaker. The venue has no sound dampening and isn’t large enough to justify any amount of speakers but I’m certain there’s at-least 2. The wait staff literally had to shout or could not hear you trying to get their attention or eveb talking face to face. I feel bad for them. Mistakes happen but they certainly happen more when what essentially felt like a karaoke performance

Sons birthday meal. 10 of us visited andwas lovely x

First time visiting yesterday and will definitely be coming back. Great food with fast and friendly service.

Very slow service, the decor was very outdated too. Prices were very high for an old mining town side street. Prices didn't match, the location, building, I think they think they are in Durham centre when it's Shildon. Lol

Been here twice now and both times everything has been perfect! Not bad pricing for delicious food either. The manager (not sure on his name) is great and there’s a light blonde server with glasses who’s excellent at her job. Will definitely be back😊

Nether food or service could be better. 10 out of 10 every time....

Nice atmosphere, friendly staff good food as good as any I have tried in UK. Reasonable prices on food and drinks. Free car park at side of building, Worth giving this place a try you won't be disappointed. Always best to ring ahead and check if they have availability.

Awesome twosome. Emma and Owen Served us. Owen made top drawer cocktails. His mixologist experience shone. An awesome old fashioned from a connoisseur and amazing strawberry daiquiri made with fresh strawberries. Even mocktail delicious Food delicious and service outstanding Definitely recommend

Great local business,food absolutely great,been a few times.

Parmo was great and kids chicken nuggets and chips were good.

Slow service. Not comfortable due to inadequate heating in the restaurant. Food was ok but probably won't go back.

service was fantastic food was fantastic so was the price would definitely Recommend

Had lunch today ( 14/2/24) The staff were excellent, great customer service, so attentive. The food was absolutely amazing, starter main and sweet. Some of the most delicious food I have had. Cold drink and a cappuccino £30.00... Just to complete the review, it's nit my first time there, it won't be my last and I would very highly recommend a visit...

First visit, excellent attentive service but not overpowering. Quick service even though they were fairly busy, food excellent in taste, presentation and quality. Prices ,in this day and age brilliant. I've paid more for a mediocre bar meal. Highly recommend.

Had an amazing meal here with friends. The menu has a wide variety of food to select from. The service was outstanding and the food was cooked to perfection. Would highly recommend!

A lovely meal to make a perfect afternoon.

Amazing food and staff are wonderful never put a review but this place needs a massive concongratulations

The food was outstanding, priced very well too. It was heaving with Christmas parties and even though the place was chocker, the service was still brilliant. We went for our works Christmas party and everyone agreed the place was great. Will definitely consider for another time.

Great food and good quick service

Love this place, food excellent service good too, never answer the phone so I can book a table, that's the only negative

Food was absolutely to die for!! Service was brilliant happy staff and friendly couldn't fault anything at all will defo return 👍 👌

Delicious food, friendly staff and great value

Took a group of 26, 4 adults and 22 girls aged 10-17. Right from the first enquiry, everyone was so accommodating. Allergies, intolerances, and preferences could all be catered for withou5 issue. When we arrived, the area was set, and the staff were their usual helpful, happy selves even with the prospect of a noisy group tc serve. Fiona, Owen and the young guy in white top (l'm so sorry I didn't catch his name) were all so lovely to the girls, we really couldn't have asked for a more hospitable welcome. We had a fabulous night, the food was amazing as always hanks to the team in the kitchen for that. I really cannot say enough how grateful we are for this place, its one of my favourite places to eat anyway. They even managed to accommodate take aways for jealous husbands and parents! Thank you Santinni! 10 stars!

Lovely place, food reasonably priced and delicious. The staff are so welcoming and friendly. Would 100% recommend 👌

Called mid week and to be honest we didn't expect it to be as busy. But the service was great, the food is basic, no frills but certainly value for money

Always great food, prices average

Great service and the food is unbelievable would not go anywhere else

Ideal for a lunch special. Good quality food would highly recommend. I will definitely go back

Excellent food, good sing song , great birthday treat !

Fantastic experience from walking through the door to coming out after a wonderful meal with excellent service.

What a brilliant restaurant. The staff are so friendly and the food was gorgeous. The risotto was one of the best I've had. All reasonably priced too. Would highly recommend!! 😊

Always a lovely meal in Santinni, went for daughters 18th, we all enjoyed the evening

Lunchtime special well worth the money food delicious and lots of it

Delicious food absolutely wonderful staff could not of asked for anything better well done

Brilliant food and service. Been loads of times and love it.

Chicken was a little tough/stringy and you only get a handful of chips with it not good enough for the price.

Beautiful food. Will be going back

Loved the evening. Had to wait to order food but it was worth the wait.

The most amazing food & staff! Easily the best risotto I've ever tasted. Would highly recommend Santinis for any occasion. Love it! ❤️

10 out of 10, great food, service, and value. Staff were great.

Fabulous food, staff are attentive and pleasent, very quick service - soft drinks are expensive, but the cask cider was very nice and a reasonable price.

If I could give this restaurant more than 5 stars I would. We've always had good experiences here so decided to go for our post-marriage meal (we had a small 8 person wedding reception) and the staff were so attentive, friendly, and just really went above and beyond to make the day even more special. 5 out of 8 of us are vegan and the food was absolutely stunning - they have multiple options and are lenient with changes that can be made to suit anyone. Thank you Santinni team for making our special day even more fantastic, we are so happy we chose this restaurant and will be coming for our anniversary next year for sure 💚

Absolutely unreal service & food quality was beautiful.10 out of 10

Was booked for a meal for 2 on a Saturday lunch time. All I can say is absolutely fabulous food and great staff! Especially big thanks to Owen who sorted our bill for us and was very entertaining watching him make cocktails. Great atmosphere and will definitely be going back. Thank you for a great meal out.

Fabulous Italian. Food is lovely, especially the tomato and basil soup. Really good service and exceptional value.

Fantastic food and service. Some of the nicest pizzas I’ve had in restaurants and the chunky chips are to die for. Plentiful side salad too. Definitely recommended.

Taxi run for the wife and a couple of friends they said it was really good

Staff got the order wrong twice. Very noisy and very expensive for what we got.

Loved it, excellent food and pleasant restaurant :)

1st time we have been, went for my twin granddaughters birthday food and staff were outstanding talking to my grandson and engaging him in conversation spot on might be 1st time but definitely not last

Had a fantastic experience with the Mrs. ,great food wonderful staff would recommend this restaurant 100%..

Firstly, very friendly and efficient staff and the food we had was great. The only minor issues were that they'd run out of two or three items on the menu, (including vanilla ice cream!) and they couldn't guarantee that the some of the items on the gluten free menu were actually gluten free. Apart from that, we would definitely visit again.

Food nice. Nice atmosphere. Staff friendly. Defo go back.

Fantastic friendly atmosphere. Staff were very welcoming. Food Fantastic.

Great value, great food, lovely staff will definitely be back.

Lovely food but felt a bit rushed as come into Satinnis at about 20.30. Was quite shocked and baffled by the way satinnis shut at 9pm. Thus not open on Sundays for Sunday trade for some reason...

Fab place, great service and excellent food

Good food at reasonable prices.

Visited with my wife and our friend. Waitress very professional and attentive. Clean and tidy, well ironed white blouse. Impressed Liked the heavy scaffold board flooring and the rustic woodwork. Well worth the visit and will return next time in the area.

Absolutely brilliant. Fabulous staff, fabulous food. Nothing was to much bother. Highly recommend 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
