Signatures Italian Restaurant and Grill in Sunderland

Nice food and a good selection of alchohol. They offer take away as well which is great. However sometimes their phone manners could be improved. Parking is also horrendous I bet the local houses hate it.

5 stars is a understatement. First class service and fantastic food. Staff are A1 plus, such a friendly team. Give a try trust me you won’t be disappointed

Good service..Good food.. Pleasant atmosphere

A bit over priced for the venue. Food was OK, but not great. never offered a wine list just beer. Not somewhere I would hurry back to. Staff were very pleasant but very busy although it was only half full.

Excellent staff and fast service. Food top quality 👌🏽 😋

Always good service nice place for a family meal .

Love this place great for family meals and nice meals for two food always amazing

Fantastic food fantastic staff fantastic place

First time there food was lovely and staff very friendly

Great hidden gem! Beautifully light and thin pizza here, which you’d expect from that beast of a pizza oven. Will be back to try the pasta!

Had a fantastic time, staff are so lovely and friendly. Food was delicious and reasonable priced. Fully recommended

Food was lovely and I’d definitely come here again. Got the full rack of ribs and chocolate fudge cake for dessert, everything was very reasonably priced. The inside is very well presented and lovely and clean. My only down point would be the service, the place was pretty much empty when we came for dinner and yet service was very slow, asking us for drinks and to order etc took a long time. Once our order was taken though, food came out in a timely fashion so I won’t complain too much.

Brilliant staff polite and happy, Food was served hot and delicious Five star

Visited for my birthday with large family group Sunday tea time - I’m gluten free and usually anxious about ordering however the waitress was so friendly & knowledgeable I felt comfortable. I had pork belly to start followed by Tuscan chicken and sticky toffee pudding - all gorgeous, fresh and reasonably priced. Little hidden gem in sunderland and can’t wait to be back to visit

Lovely food!! My only complaint is there's too much couldn't eat it all which is a good thing really

Great restaurant with friendly staff and great food

Absolutely beautiful Sunday lunch , had starters so couldn't eat all of our food , service impeccable.. my only gripe was music a little too loud .. definitely will be a frequent visitor

We had a lovely meal here all 4 of us last night. So starters we had a prawn dish in cheese and the belly pork. Both dishes 😋 Mains was homemade chicken Kiev highly recommended by the lucky man who was eating it. 🤣 A hawian pizza with loads of topping and 2 of us having seafood pasta. The servings are very generous and high quality. The best meal I've had in a while. Not forgetting the great staff there. So attentive and helpful. Thank you!

It was lovely food and service will defo be visiting again. Our grandsons love coming here with us.

Not sure whether they were having an off day but this wasn't up to their usual standard for Sunday lunch. We were there for a family get together and left very disappointed. Food was nice but not great. Seem to be concentrating more on takeaway orders rather than customers in the restaurant

Fantastic Sunday lunch the Vegetables so tasty .Sweets unbelievable. Also great for a evening meal great staff.Very cosy.

Absolutely amazing place, the buffet they put on for Rodger and Dots surprise party was amazing and thank you to all the staff who went above and beyond to make sure they had a wonderful night, would highly recommend

Lovely friendly staff. Didn't book a table, but staff were able to re arrange sonething to fit us in. Decor clean and fresh. Venue quite busy for a weekday.

Beautiful decor and even better food! Fish is always well cooked and delicious

Excellent friendly service and even better food.

Best Sunday lunch I've ever tasted in my life and I'm very picky. And so reasonably priced . Husband had pasta and he said that was outstanding too. We will be back 100 %

Lovely food huge portions and good value for money.

It was our friends first visit today & as they said it wont be there last our Sunday lunch was fabulous. So tasty & red hot.The vegetables were perfect. Sweet amazing waffles. Wine really cold brilliant afternoon.

First time here and won’t be the last. Food was delicious and OMG was there plenty of it. 5 Stars well done to all concerned.

Was a brilliant night, service and staff were very helpful and friendly. Nothing was to much. Atmosphere brilliant, even brought little candles in a sweet dish, for our granddaughters birthday. Highly recommended.

Dined here last week, service and food was excellent, highly recommended.

Food was beautiful can’t complain for how much you get for the price will definitely go back.

Not a fan of the changes to the menu at all. Used to be reasonably priced, just paid £50 for what used to cost £30. The bread on the bruschetta was so hard it was inedible and I could have trained a chimp to have better customer service skills than the younger waitress with the long dark hair. Safe to say we won't be returning.

We were in the Sunderland area for my daughters graduation ceremony. My daughter booked Signatures for us all.We arrived and were given a nice welcome. We ordered drinks then the food. We all had pizza and my son in law had a rossoto. The food was absolutely amazing and very well cooked. I can't praise Signatures enough as I told a member of staff that it was the best pizza I'd ever eaten. If and when we are in the Sunderland area again we will certainly be visiting.I can honestly recommend Signatures to anyone,the service,food and the staff were great .Thankyou to all the staff. We loved it x

Over priced Undercooked Definitely off the list for next time

Having attended many times on this occasion we were let down though food had to be preordered they got a meal wrong and meant everybody else had to start eating as took well over 10 mins to sort the missing main . Also we paid £70 deposit and because 2 of our GP,s couldn’t make it we lost £10 . These serve the community of Silksworth so think it very upsetting that after speaking to the manager we were refused this to be deducted from the rather large bill. The practice will certainly not be returning .

Great restaurant with great staff!

Great food love it friendly staff

Bit annoyed about having to now put a deposit down for a table... We rang and asked for a table for 3 a week prior and paid a £15 deposit. A few hours later we rang to ask if we could change this to just 2. We lost £5 due to this. I think that this should be changed, fair enough for large parties but ultimately a 3 person table is just a 2 person table with a chair added to it. And it's not like we just didn't turn up. The food was however lovely. Its just a gripe with now paying a deposit.

Has had a beautiful refurbishment. The staff were lovely, they struggled to get food out quickly but we weren’t in any rush. The food was generally nice. I loved all of mine, my son didn’t like the prawn cocktail at all, the chicken & black pudding was dry and two pizzas were more crust than pizza. I would go back just for the Muscles they were delicious & my pizza was beautiful too. You can’t please everyone I guess. Marks out of 10. Starters: Muscles in Tomatoes & Chilli 10/10 Squid 5/10 Prawn cocktail 2/10 Tomato Garlic bread 7/10 Mains: Arrabiata 8/10 Chicken & Blackpudding 5/10 Pepperoni Pizza 10/10 Veg Pizza 5/10

Food was appalling...eg. prawn cocktail served with raw prawns and a spicy very greasy sauce...told it was because it has paprika in it! It certainly did not have Marie rose sauce and all who had it aged it was not nice. Basically told to suck it up! Main casse mussels..hmm. starter was the same size as the main! 20 mussels...small at that worked out as 79p each. The general standard of food has went downhill. We had pre ordered so we're expecting food service to be good...not so when some people were still waiting for over 10 mins for theirs or were given sides before their main arrived several minutes later. Please get a new chef and more staff...If we had not been their to celebrate a friend's birthday I would have walked out.

Passed this place loads but never been so thought we'd give it a go today and we certainly weren't disappointed food was lovely, the portions were on the large side, staff were very attentive, venue lovely, clean and fresh, we will definitely be back 😀

Food tonight, take out for a family of 7. Starters and mains, unbelievable. Everyone loved it and not a thing left on anyone's plate. Every meal was beautiful but a big shout out to the lobster ravioli and the gamberoni, the taste was unreal. Also lovely gesture from the restaurant, piece of cake and candle for the birthday girl. Thank you soooo much 5* from all of us x

Awesome Sunday lunch with the best gravy I have ever tasted in my 57 years delightful helpful staff who go above and beyond to make sure their customers experience is as best as it possibly can be. Well done all staff in a very busy restaurant you ran everything smoothly and seemingly effortlessly (I know it certainly wasn’t effortless) We will be back very soon Debs

Very poor today. Ordered penne arrabbiata and the pasta was like mush you could tell it was pre cooked and warmed up. The sauce was nothing but a greasy pool of tomato paste with no flavour. Salmon is listed on the menu as salmon is a tomato and spinach sauce came in a cream based sauce with 2 sun dried tomatoes swimming around again in grease and when we asked where the accompanying vegetables were they forgot! Despite stating our concerns we were told the food met their tastes and they had tasted it. If you can cook and have a far from basic palette then this is not the Italians for you!

Outstanding meal, we love the new menu and decor. The staff are so friendly and attentive, they give great suggestions for food and drinks. Absolute new favourite place to eat. See you all again soon.

Superb meal, full family thoroughly enjoyed it

Really impressed with our recent visit following the refurb, the place looks great. The staff are very friendly and the service overall was great. The pizza oven wasn’t fully operating but that didn’t make any difference to us as there was so much choice on the new menu. I had the cod wrapped in pancetta and it was absolutely delicious, we also had a mixture of starters, pasta and chicken dishes. I have already returned for a takeout and againeverything was perfect, this time the pizza oven was up and running and the garlic bread with tomato was delicious. I think this is my new go to Italian restaurant 😋

Unequivocally "the best" restaurant in town. Food is superb and always service with a smile. Been going to Signatures for a good few years now and just gets better and better. We'll done to the team and looking forward to next time 👍

we came to signatures on the 1st April for a family birthday. There was 16 of us including children. The staff were very friendly, quick service from start to finish. All our food was outstanding and served hot. I had lamb rump cooked to perfection. Highly recommend this restaurant.

Sunday lunch our first time here for a Sunday lunch won't be our last it was so tasty really enjoyed our lunch.

Great service and food, managed to squeeze us in without a booking on a busy night. Will be back again happily! Wish we got some photos of the food but ate it before we could get a chance. Highly recommended

As always best Sunday lunch , family of 5 and everyone enjoyed it so much. This restaurant never fails, fab food, food staff and fab prices.. xxx

Had a lovely family meal at Signatures tonight, service was spot on & the waitresses were friendly & knowledgeable. The refurb & new menu were amazing. Defo recommend & will be visiting again soon.

Came & had a meal a few months back & it was nice but since the, refurb I'll call it, it's not so good. Went with a few of us & the food was not up to much. Some got the food undercooked, some got it late & some didn't get it at all! We were told the oven was not installed properly so some of us who wanted pizza, which was pre ordered, couldn't have it. The whole experience was a costly mare!

Beautiful Sunday dinner and fab staff too. Will certainly be returning 😊

We decided to try out Signatures new menu tonight after a busy day. I had the Pork Masala with chunky chips and hubby had chicken Kiev. We were both very impressed, the food & service was excellent. Definitely a go to place. Beautiful food and excellent service.

Large open plan seating area but felt cosy with med holiday music playing softly in the background Food and drink tastey with Large portion size The staff attentive knowledgeable and friendly

OMG we've just enjoyed a fabulous Sunday lunch.Great staff lovely atmosphere. The restaurant has taken away its stag & extended the resturant brilliant idea.The Italian influence is so relaxing decor really enhanced the restaurant. We can't wait until our next visit.

Great food at a great price, nice atmosphere and friendly staff. Will be going back 😊

Very pleasant service staff and the mince and dumplings are beautiful

Great food, good service, good vibes. Wouldn't think you'd get this quality of restaurant out in the suburbs! We will defo be back 👍

We made a booking for 10 people initially. Another 3 people joined us and this was no problem at all for the staff. We had to wait a little while as they had to rearrange seating because of the very short notice of more people joining us. This wasn't a problem at all and we decided to have a few drinks in the bar while we waited. Brilliant service in the bar. When the table was ready we all headed through, and what an absolutely fantastic night we had. The food was fantastic and so where the staff. Would highly recommend giving this restaurant a try. We'll definitely be going back. Food , atmosphere , staff and service fantastic. 👍

Lovely gorgeous food!, friendly staff!

Didn't go. Only searched. You need to change your options to avoid misleading ratings.

This was mine and my families first visit. What can I say. All the floor staff were brilliant, efficient, very friendly and worked so hard when it was so busy with a smile on the their faces. Sarah, Gemma, Cardyn, Lauren, Meena, Mia, Maya and Julie. Such lovely Staff. The food was absolutely delicious. We all enjoyed every mouthful. With such a wide selection of things to choose from. Also we didn't wait that long for our food. So well done to the chefs, Mario, Zia, Amine. We will definitely be back

The staff were excellent and the whole place was fantastic

We visited recently celebrating our friend Michael ps birthday. We enjoyed our first visit and looked forward to returning and we weren’t disappointed . The staff were very welcoming and attentive. The food is amazing, so flavoursome and the portion sizes are good. The restaurant has a great buzz about it . We look forward to our next visit.

My hubby's 60th We had the best time They had table all nice Looked after us all through the meal Food was something else Well done!!!! Will be back

Excellent Sunday lunch. Staff are very pleasant and there are gluten and dairy free options.

First time me and my husband visited for Sunday lunch. It was absolutely beautiful. Never had a Sunday roast like it.will be going again this week.

First time dining there.absolutely beautiful. Will definitely go back.

Group of us went from work had a fab time food was fabulous decent pricing

Well we thought our evening would be quite , meal for 4.OMG Signatures was busy .The waitress were amazing as the food was.However it was very nosey we couldn't hear ourselves speak .Great for the restaurant to be busy .The chefs were brilliant 2 big...

Our visit was to celebrate a birthday,very reasonably priced for the quality of the food, we all ordered different food and everyone agreed what they had was delicious. The service was excellent, very friendly, professional staff, attentive but not overbearing, we enjoyed it so much we've booked for Christmas lunch.

Went for Sunday lunch with my daughter and son-in-law. Got a generous plate of tasty well cooked food. It came quickly and was served efficiently by friendly staff. It's not a fancy restaurant in a fashionable area but it is very good.

Food was really nice, well presented and plentiful. Waitresses worked really hard, they were all friendly and polite. The only negative is the heat in the restaurant was overpowering, it was as really hot for customers so working in it must be a nightmare. Definitely...

First time for lunch really enjoyed it the lady waitress was good very helpful.

Absolutely fantastic !!!! Had the Chef Special , Trio of Fish it was absolutely beautiful, compliments to the chef 😊

Eat here all the time but normally in the bar as it’s dog friendly and literally can’t big the place up enough!! Food is beautiful and nice beer/gins too ! Came here for my engagement meal on 8th October with 17 people and sat in the restaurant everyone’s meals were piping hot and beautiful. Not one complaint and the staff literally couldn’t do enough for you especially Gemma Compliments to the chef and will deffo be returning as a family again Thanks for an amazing night❤️

Nice food but too hot nedd to get A/C or fans.

Food wasn't great, big party of 20 disappointed, will not be back. Wernt even offered any kind of discount and we made them aware some of the stuff just wasn't acceptable.

Visited for Sunday lunch….Outstanding in every respect. Staff attentive and very friendly. Service was excellent throughout. Food was beautiful, large portions and high quality produce. Would highly recommend. Looking forward to trying it during the week for an Italian meal.

Staff are very attentive. Food delicious, great night out with friends.

Food is really excellent, considering its in the suburbs Sognatures is a great italian resturant. It does have a few issues however, the main restaurant gets uncomfortably hot, they could do with either better ventilation or getting some Aircon/fans. All their staff are lovely and friendly, service is usually great when you first arrive and get your initial drink and food orders however after that it can be really hard to order additional drinks or to get your bill at the end. They could also do with having additional barstaff, as they only seem to have 2, 1 in the restaurant and 1 in the bar bit which means you end up waiting a while if you time it wrong.

Nice food, great service just needs fine tuning to get 5 stars

Ooooo all I cay is it is SUPERB! The staff are wonderful n the chef is worthy of a Michelin star. There gravy on Sunday lunch is to die for!. Excellent!

The food was great. We sat in the pub section instead of the restaurant because it was fully booked. The staff were all lovely too

Always amazing food and great staff

Absolutely beautiful food , tried some of the chefs specials , would highly recommend!!! Excellent friendly service couldn’t fault , thank you

Great menu with plenty to choose from. My food was absolutely fantastic (chicken stuffed with black pudding with an English mustard sauce) but that didn't stop the food envy when the rest of the families food arrived at the table. Staff surprised my mum with cake, music, singing and candle for her birthday. Overall this was an excellent experience and I'd highly recommend this restaurant.

Lovely place. Hidden little Gem. Decor is beautiful. Lovely atmosphere Friendly attentive staff. Menu is amazing lots of choice for everyone. Great quality food portions massive. Prices are low Love this place Regularly visited. Highly recommended

Lovely meal great atmospere will def eat here again

Brilliant service and great food

Great place for the family, lovely staff and the foods fantastic

A lovely family meal out for Mothers Day

Lively place...friendly staff..very efficient

My first time there, staff miserable, did not feel welcome, I feel that's important to be greeted . Food I had beef that was lovely, veg very nice I love gravy , and I wont go back again , gravy black an tasteless, surroundings need a makeover. I live in the midlands, and was visiting my family, so sorry no I wont go back. Very disappointed.

Pre booked table for a large group, staff were very friendly and helpful. Food came quick as all were pre ordered, everything was spot on and piping hot. I had tagliatelle Della casa which was delicious. Would highly recommend and will be back again. Kids...

Great food and lovely waitresses
