Silk Room Restaurant & Champagne Bar in Newcastle upon Tyne

Best restaurant in town. Amazing steaks. Book again soon.

This spot is great for a night out. The food is amazing and would definitely recommend the lamb. Amazing service and hospitality shown by the staff. Will be back soon

We were coming to Newcastle for our 25th Anniversary and booked here as it looked perfect for us - unfortunately, they cancelled with 5 days notice. Not sure we'll be able to re-book at such short notice for a Saturday night Really disappointed

Looking at the glowing reviews on this site, I did double-check that I was giving feedback on the same place. I had heard many positive reports about this restaurant in its heyday, but sadly, that period seems to have passed. It was OK. Plenty of room for walk-ins on the evening that I was there.

Booked to eat at Silk Room after reading some positive reviews and reading the menu and liking the look of it. Arrived at 7:30pm on a Friday night to find only 1 other table filled which was slightly worrying to begin with. The food was Wetherspoons quality at higher class prices. One of the waiters whose name I didn't catch was fantastic for the latter half of our time there, however the other member of staff who served us for the majority of the time from the beginning stood behind the bar on his phone, not really paying attention to anything around him. We weren't offered any drinks after our first and after calling him over to ask for some, he brought them and left all the original empty glasses on the table. Just very shoddy and such a shame as it has the potential to be fantastic.

Excellent food lam speech less the kangaroo was a amazing top 👌 food recommended to everyone many thanks xxx

Absolutely loved our evening at Silk Room, we just got engaged prior to arriving and the staff put lots of effort to ensure we had a special night. Each course was beautifully presented and tasted fantastic. Thank you to all at Silk Room,will definately be back ❤💍

Me and my wife visited this place last night and had a great time, the food was brilliant the champagne cocktails were amazing the waiters are lovely we really enjoyed it and will be coming back next week to celebrate our anniversary.

Food was expensive and a slightly burnt. The ‘so called’ vegan options were almost certainly not vegan either. Really disappointing place to eat.

A great place with great vibe.The food was amazing , definitely would recommend the lamb and the steak. They also have a wide range of champagne as well. The staff was amazing and it is a beautiful place for hosting business or private events.

Not a great experience during restaurant week. Difference between the website and actual menu. Service was slow, waiting almost 2 hours for mains. One round of drinks...

Slightly disappointed with my experience at Silk Room. The manager (I think he was the manager) was fabulous. Friendly, attentive ans worked really hard. His supporting team let him down. One young chap behind the bar, spent majority of his time on his phone, whilst the bar was awash with glasses, both used and unused. Other members of the team (potentially new) required direction, lacked energy and enthusiasm. Food was fine, my partner had steak, and I had sea bass. Steak was lovely, my fish was good but not great. Purely acceptable. If this was a school report card, the comment would be ' could do better'

This is the worst meal out I've had in a long time. Avoid this place at all costs. I wish I could rate it 0 stars. I don't really like leaving negative reviews as the hospitality industry is going through a difficult time at the moment. I've had to make a special exception for this place. I'll keep it concise, service was shocking, no salt and pepper was on our table (a basic standard for any decent establishment) the food took so long to come I genuinely questioned whether the restaurant would close before it arrived and the atmosphere inside the place felt like a morgue on a Monday morning. The prices and the food itself is by far the worst part of visiting this place, 17 pound for some mushroom pasta that was cold, bland and mostly resembled dog sick. During a cost of living crisis btw, sambuca does pasta for half of that and is far tastier and fresher. I'd urge anyone to buy a packet of supernoodles for 90p and avoid spending your money at Silkroom.

Restaurant was extremely cold, which would put us off returning. Fillet steak lovely but wagyu burger was disappointing.

NewCastle? 1st time at the restaurant, would need to return to give a truthful comment

Evening ruined by noisy, drunk stag party in the corner. (Shouting, , bad language etc). Wish we’d been told there was a big stag party booked and we would have booked for another night. Food ok but not worth the money. Restaurant is starting to look tatty. Staff were excellent and worked hard under trying circumstances but we won’t be returning.

Lovely food. Decent champagne choice.

Medium fillet was cooked to perfection ! Medium/rare kangaroo fillet was outstanding! Staff very polite and well mannered Good value for money in comparison to like for like restaurants nationwide Certainly be back time and time again!

Great service and food. Place had a nice atmosphere and staff was amazing.

Located in the heart of Newcastle's legal district & close to the vibrant Quayside. Very nice restaurant with attentive service & pleasant ambience. Bar a little small if the restaurant is busy. Awesome range of champagnes! Food was very good with decent portions at a fair price. I just wish that some dishes weren't served on pieces of slate - a pet peeve! Makes it so difficult to eat all the food! Well worth a visit whether business or pleasure.

We booked this restaurant for our evening meal and it didn't disappoint,with it being a small restaurant and menu the quality was fantastic,the staff are friendly,helpful and polite. Would highly recommend this restaurant.

Lovely ambience. Friendly staff. Lovely food

We went to celebrate our wedding anniversary. The restaurant is beautiful, the staff attentive, and the food was fab. My wife won’t stop talking about her dessert! Thanks to David and his team. We will be back soon.

Incredible service - really lovely team - and very good food (although the burger could have done with a little more seasoning/being cooked a tad less, but that’s nitpicking!).

The food and service were first class but the restaurant was chilly. When the door opened it was positively freezing. The screen they'd put up at our table, which was opposite the door, kept falling onto us. It was a little expensive too. Overall, I'd recommend it, but make sure you don't book the table opposite the door if it's a chilly evening. The staff are fabulous and we had a great laugh with the sommelier!

Lovely atmosphere, calm and relaxed with professional staff who know their job, but also like to have fun with guests. Food and wine offers excellent value as the quality of both is high. Definitely be eating here again!

Food and experience were splendid. Very attentive staff

Very poor. Food was bang average and very dark and gloomy. Went for a birthday and was promised drinks on arrival and happy birthday with candle on desert as a surprise. None of this happened and was oblivious to any requests promised etc.

The burger had no seasoning at all and was very weird I won't be going back.

Friendly staff, very helpful. Food very nice and served prompt .

Delicious food. The service is excellent. My partner and I had dinner at the Silk Room for a birthday celebration. We'd hoped for a nice night out, but the staff at the Silk Room made sure our dinning experience was turned into a very special occasion.

Amazing food and drink, as good as anything nationwide, and great service, knowledgeable with pairings etc, very relaxed, doesn't look much from outside but don't let that put you off

Me and partner go here for anniversary we love it , staff are fab and chef changed the pudding from Strawberries to raspberries as I am allergic them fab . We will probably still go all the time.

Best steak and wagu burger, we've had in a while. Service great from friendly, knowledgeable staff.

Door man scary and stares without speaking. Bride to be asked to remove l plates n veil, umanle to make 5 differerent cocktails as had ran out of ingredients, didn't stay for drink....

Booked a table for dinner, got there and the restaurant was closed, a waiter came out and told us they were quiet so decided to close early. We didn’t get any warning, no phone call or email to let us know that they’d cancelled our reservation and all the surrounding restaurants were full so we just had to go back home. A shame because when I’ve been there before the food has been delicious and the vibe very nice and the staff lovely.

Excellent food and wine, good attentive service without being overbearing, covid protection between tables tastefully done.

Fantastic food. Had the kangaroo steak, cooked perfectly. Lovely warm service, easy atmosphere with class.

Fantastic food and great service, very good value for money, would definitely recommend for a lush date night meal One of the better restaurants in Newcastle

Closed without notice on website, went through booking process, entire time not being notified that the restaurant was closed for Covid. Only when arrived at the front of the restaurant we found it was closed. Any notice of closure on the website would be nice!

It has a romantic feel to it, very cosy and good Covid-19 measures. Only realy why it wasnt 5 star was because the menu wasn't great, our food was delicious but not a lot of options, but nice nonetheless!

Fuimos por una botella de champán y ojalá nos hubiéramos quedado a comer también. Realmente disfrutamos de nuestro tiempo allí y la camarera fue amable. Amante de la decoración y ambionce. Un poco fuera de lo común, ¡pero definitivamente vale la pena ir! ! No muy lejos del restaurante Quayside / pitcher and piano / 21.

Mi esposo y yo tuvimos el placer de cenar en este restaurante para nuestro sexto aniversario de bodas. Esta fue nuestra primera vez, y tengo que decir que quedamos gratamente impresionados con la comida y especialmente con el servicio.La comida estaba buenísima y estaba preparada a un nivel encantador, con sabores deslumbrantes en cada plato y bebida. ¡Fuimos muy afortunados de recibir bebidas en la casa como un gesto complementario y regalo de aniversario de bodas!El restaurante cumplió perfectamente con la normativa COVID - 19, haciéndonos sentir cómodos y seguros. Nos encantó el tiempo que pasamos allí y volveremos a visitarlo.

Fue una pena que la nueva imposición de bloqueo en los lugares de hospitalidad de Newcastle provocara la cancelación de las reservas en el restaurante. Dicho esto, también fue una lástima para mí que los únicos otros clientes en el restaurante esa noche fueran estridentes hasta el punto de ser a veces ensordecedores. El camarero se compadeció, pero se mostró reacio a actuar.Demasiado para el fondo, que admito que posiblemente pudo haber afectado mi actitud hacia la noche.Tuve los entrantes de vieiras. Según el menú, las vieiras iban acompañadas de chorizo y puré de guisantes, pero en medidas tan pequeñas que apenas se distinguían. La pierna de cordero con verduras mixtas como plato principal estaba bien preparada. La tarta de queso que tuve de postre estaba bien.Pagué el 10% del cargo por servicio. Lo siento por estos lugares, ya que deben estar luchando por sobrevivir en los tiempos difíciles actuales, pero sentí que la comida era demasiado cara. Con un cóctel, un pequeño vino y un servicio pagué algo más de 60. Mi consejo para cualquiera que desee ahorrar en la factura sería evitar el entrante de vieira.

Visité aquí con un amigo del trabajo para probar la hamburguesa wagyu y me fui con sentimientos encontrados, he querido probar este lugar durante tanto tiempo debido a la comida y los cócteles de champán y finalmente reservé hoy. Reservé esta mañana y no tuve problemas para conseguir una mesa, pero cuando llegamos éramos los primeros clientes de la noche y aún así nos sentamos en la mesa más pequeña lejos del resto del restaurante, así que realmente no puedo hablar por el aspecto de el lugar, la camarera que nos sentó fue lo suficientemente agradable y pedimos bebidas y luego comida. ¡La hamburguesa wagyu fue increíble! Realmente sabroso, pero ya habíamos hablado antes de que una hamburguesa 20 debería ser realmente genial y debe ir acompañada de un gran servicio y en una buena ubicación, y ahí es donde se vino abajo. La única vez que pudimos tomar una segunda bebida fue cuando llegó nuestra comida y solicitamos una segunda ronda. En este punto, solo había 3 mesas, por lo que no es como si el servidor estuviera estresado. Hubo una consulta sobre nuestra comida y la oferta de un postre, pero cuando dijimos que no, no había oferta de nuestra factura, la chica simplemente desapareció, debido a nuestra mala ubicación en el restaurante, no pudimos ver por ningún lado y cuándo salió. se paró en la barra de espaldas al restaurante leyendo algo o revisándose las uñas. No es que tuviéramos prisa, pero habíamos terminado nuestra comida y bebida y la mesa había sido despejada y finalmente tuve que gritar (no muy digno en un bar de champán) por la cuenta. ¡Mi odio de mascota en este momento son los cargos por servicio! ! Este no es de ninguna manera el único lugar para colarse, pero cuando el servicio es tan pobre como para pagar 6. 50 que alguien tome mi pedido y traiga la comida parece excesivo. Nunca entiendo por qué en un café u otros lugares no hay cargo por servicio, pero en lugares un poco lujosos sí lo hay. ? ¿Por qué esto no solo está cubierto en el precio de la comida? No esperaría ir a una panadería y pagar 1 por una barra de pan, pero me cobrarían 1. 10 para que el personal me sirva, pero ahora parece convertirse en una norma común. En general, pensaría en volver, pero no me apresure, la hamburguesa estaba genial, pero hay un mejor servicio en la calle Vincent's a la vuelta de la esquina o en el amplio char

Food was okay only but definitely overpriced. I had the Wagyu burger, which was £20 and very underwhelming. I've had better burgers for half that. The king prawn starter was very average and comprised of 4 prawns costing £11. Don't mind paying these prices but the food needs to be much better quality. I wouldn't return or recommend.

Husband booked tonight to take me out for birthday treat,although midweek expected better food not what expected. Had good reviews from friends disappointing will not be returning

We had a lovely evening, food was excellent and we had to laugh at the spelling mistakes! Just a few:- Verve cliquot Perrier jouet Black lable Rose merry Dom perigon For a champagne bar you would have thought they could get it right!

Amazingly quick and friendly service. Excellent food, would highly recommend if in or around Newcastle!

From great customer services, to amazing food and fabulous champagne. I knew I made the right choice for date night. The ambience was so classic and classy. Amazing experience. Thanks team Silkroom.

... beautiful place.. delicious food 😋.

This was me and my husband’s first ‘night out’ without the kids since before lockdown. We had visited the Silk room before (prior to Covid) and wanted a great night out, and were not disappointed. The place has obviously carefully considered all the restrictions and protocols to keep everyone safe, but it was a breath of fresh air to have it feel in the background and not take over the night - I felt I had escaped a little for the first time in months! The food was lovely - I had scallops and fillet steak (beautiful - I could had licked the plate!) and the brownie to finish, which definitely satisfied my sweet tooth! The staff were pleasant and professional, with service being great. Your whole team should be proud, and we hope to be back with you soon. Thanks

Attended on my 5th year anniversary with my beautiful fiancé, the food was great. The bill can be above average but the food and atmosphere is worth it

Fabulous meal and great service

We’ve been here on a number of occasions and have always left impressed. However this occasion we were left underwhelmed. Our humus starter was ok, but two half slices of bread seemed a bit tight. My partner’s ravioli was nothing startling but nice enough. My lamb shank was very disappointing. Seemed like a vacuum packed microwaved lamb shank with hard veg on the side and a dollop of Coleman’s mint sauce on the side, no pea purée as advertised and the jus was tasteless. Like I say, it’s normally spot on here but we left very disappointed this time.

Wow. From Salmon to Citron what a great meal. The steak was superb. The Wagu burger fantastic. Our waiter Marvin) suggested great champaign and the cocktails were a perfect end. 5* excellence

The meal was fantastic, lots of nice drink choices too and the staff were great! Especially with the new social distancing rules, it still didn't feel that much different. I had the fillet steak which was cooked to absolute perfection and the desserts were to die for!

This was my first time here and we'll be back. The staff were fantastic, friendly and attentive and it's clear there's a good, professional team front of house. The food was a dream, my husband particularly enjoyed the infamous wagyu burger (and went as far as to say on the way home it was the best burger he'd EVER had!) and have carefully considered what they need to do in order to keep people safe. There has obviously been a lot of thought gone in to the new practices and procedures, which are rigorously implemented and observed by staff. As customers, it's imperative we work with businesses to keep them open, staff and other customers safe & so you will be asked to hand sanitise on your way in, before you use the toilets and your contact details will also be requested. If you're nervous about eating out, and I appreciate assessment of risk is unique and individual, please accept this review as a level of reassurance about eating good food here during these uncertain times. The menus are cleaned before they are given to anyone (I know this because I watched it happen) but if you're trying to handle as little as possible when you're out and about, the menu is also on the website so you can check it out in advance and order at the table without one. Thanks to everyone at this restaurant for a lovely, relaxed night this evening.

Wonderful food, that steak was just incredible! strongly advised for who is searching for a nice, posh location where to take a girlfriend for dinner 😍 prices are reasonable for the high quality food you will taste there 😍 great wines choice and super friendly staff!

Having previously enjoyed a faultless meal and service at the Silk Room, myself and my partner visited the restaurant again recently before a show at the nearby Live Theatre and were once again blown away by the quality of food (and drink) on offer. If you can clock off work at a reasonable hour, their early bird menu is great value (3 courses for £18.95) but the a la carte is where the magic really happens with a mouthwatering selection of starting boards and great fish and meat main courses. You honestly can't go wrong here.

Mi pareja y yo visitamos la Sala de la Seda el día de San Valentín y nos impresionó la calidad de la comida y el servicio. Anteriormente había estado antes, pero no había probado uno de sus menús establecidos antes, ¡no me decepcionó!Fui por el salmón al vapor (que se derritió en la boca, ¡simplemente encantador!) Y mi otra mitad se bombeó por la pierna de cordero de Northumberland, que estaba hermosamente presentada en un vino tinto. Los postres también eran geniales y terminamos la comida con un vaso de champán, ¡no te puedes equivocar!Pase el 14 de febrero del próximo año. . .

After reading such great reviews about silk room, I booked a table for a belated valentines meal with my boyfriend (which I put as a note on our reservation and asked for something special to be done - it appeared this was nothing) and admittedly we arrived a little late. On arrival, there was no one to greet us for a good 5 minutes and once we were seated we were told what wasn’t on the menu but not much else. There was a lack of attention to detail from the start, not exactly a warm welcome, table wasn’t set well as cutlery wasn’t even straight (might be nitpicking but as a waitress myself, it’s not difficult to make it neat). Both the waiters seemed to just want to be there for the pay and to leave, which I can understand as it’s a hard job, but at least make us feel welcome. As we were looking at the menus the two waiters were chatting in the bar, fair enough, but then the conversation got weird and they were giggling, the man talking about lifting the girls top up or something. Not what I want to hear on a romantic meal. I rarely, rarely will walk out or criticise a restaurant but I couldn’t stay. We walked out and went next door to 21, where we had an absolutely gorgeous meal. Avoid silk room, not what I expect from the ‘fine’ style of dining it claims to be.

Reservé para San Valentín y no me dijeron hasta que pagué mi depósito que era un menú fijo para el día de San Valentín. La cantidad de cosas en el menú para San Valentín era pobre, no había suficiente elección, el camembert de pechuga de pollo era probar y sabía más a mantequilla de ajo que a queso. La tarta de limón era horrible porque se usó mucho azúcar y el lugar en sí es muy pequeño, donde empacamos como sardinas. No creo que sea correcto poner un límite de tiempo en la mesa, toda la comida se apresuró, pedimos unos minutos antes de que saliera el postre y nos dijeron que tendríamos 5 minutos, nunca volveré y Estaba enormemente decepcionado. Lo único bueno fue el cordero que mi compañero disfrutó y el personal era encantador.

Went for Valentine's meal, it was rush rush rush. Enjoyed my meal but partner had Chicken breast, this was so dry it was in edible. We asked for time before our dessert but was told we could only have 5 minutes.

Couldn’t believe it ! Me and my partner went here for our valentines meal. It was the first time I let him book something- we were both looking forward to this as the reviews were seemingly amazing. We arrived and were greeted, as soon as we sat down we were giving a menu. 3 courses for 45pp, not to bad- if the food was nice. Our food came and I can only say we were disappointed, something we could of easily cooked in the house. My chicken had grizzle in which I had to keep spitting out. We were that disappointed, that my partner actually went to speak to the manager and said we wouldn’t be paying for the food. The bill was extortionate for the quality of the food. So disappointed.

Nuestra visita a este restaurante fue una sorpresa de nuestra hija que nos estaba visitando durante el fin de semana.Este es un pequeño y encantador restaurante individual con buena música de fondo y un personal amable, servicial y accesible.La comida es excelente y bien presentada y sus cócteles de champán son deliciosos. Tuve el entrante de salmón, que era una gran porción y la hamburguesa wagyu que era muy agradable. Definitivamente recomendaría una visita.

I liked this place. Lovely food and pleasant staff

Went for New year I have to say it wasn't anything special for the price the food was ok we were also charged table service which wasn't shown on their website wouldn't go again quiet disappointed

Lovely surroundings and food. Staff not friendly and attentive enough

Have been here several times over the years for the Xmas menu. Always been a treat and I don't recall any of our large group having any complaints. Would recommend a visit.

Great night out, fab Christmas dinner!

Called in for a drink, with intentions of perusing the menu for something to eat, but were told, albeit, politely that we could stand at the bar? Just get some bar stools?. Considering the sign outside states Bar and restaurant, yes there's a bar, but it's not functional as one. Rather confusing and dissappointing.

Visitamos las habitaciones de seda, ya que no pudimos reservar en Tomahawk para el cumpleaños de mi esposa.Llegamos temprano y nos sentamos rápidamente, la cálida bienvenida solo se vio ensombrecida por la encantadora decoración de este pequeño establecimiento.Nos ofrecieron bebidas casi de inmediato, pedimos una botella de tinto de la gran lista de vinos, tan pronto como llegó nuestro pedido de comida fue tomado.Nos saltamos los entrantes y los platos principales cuando salíamos por el resto de la noche y no queríamos estar llenos para disfrutar el resto de la noche.Pedí el cordero y mi esposa pidió el salmón. Ambas comidas estaban entre las mejores que hemos tenido en Newcastle y las volvería a pedir.El servicio fue brillante y nuestras copas se llenaban regularmente.No puedo recomendar este lugar lo suficiente y se ha ido directamente a mis 5 restaurantes regulares en Newcastle.

We visited the Silk Room for the first time last weekend, we live near Newcastle but I had never heard of it and after a quick google search I found it on the map and with good reviews I was looking forward to a night out.We went with two other couples and were shown to our table straight away, one of our group had preordered a bottle of Prosecco which was waiting for us. The food and service was great although more than we would normally pay it was worth every penny.The staff ordered a taxi for us and allowed us to wait inside until it arrived due to the heavy rain even though they were clearing up and going home.I don’t normally recommend restaurants as everybody has different tastes but I’ll make an exception - just go.

lugar fabuloso para una noche de cita romántica, me encanta lo oscuro y sexy que es por dentro, y no es solo el ambiente lo que establece ese tono, los platos son muy variados, sabrosos y no demasiado caros. Hacen cócteles increíbles, y siempre salen de Silk Room sintiéndose felices. no te saltes las profiteroles rellenas de helado frío.

'Steak was 10x better than miller and carter!' Myself and my boyfriend went to the Silkroom last Saturday for a birthday meal. The service as fab! All of the waiters and waitress were so welcoming and lovely, they even gave us a birthday drink on the house (it is the little things that mean a lot!). The manager was more than happy to go out of his way to ensure every customer had a lovely time. Food was great I had the pasta and my boyfriend had the steak. We will definitely be back! Thank you for making it special :)

On a romantic weekend away with my partner celebrating our birthdays & recent new job I had searched google for a fine dining restaurant. I came across the Silk Room & checked out the photos and menu before reversing a table. Both me and my partner are big fans of a fillet steak and this didnt disappoint, by far the best steak we have had in a long time. We were seated in a quite corner which was very intimate & relaxing. Enjoying a glass of prosecco with our mains & followed with 2 great desserts (chocolate brownie & white chocolate cheesecake, which was insane) also the Whitley Neil raspberry gin was a great finish to the night. All staff had incredible customer service, very professional. Would highly recommend a visit to the silk room, we cant wait to come back. Thank you again

Birthday dining at its best . Hidden gem of a restaurant with some novel culinary delights to try from the menu. Chosen especially for its atmosphere, food and decor the Silk room experience is great for our tastes. Friendly owner and staff add to the relaxed ambiance of this lovely restaurant. Good range of drink , cocktails and well stocked bar.Service was slick on a busy Saturday evening with good personal attention by staff. We pre viewed the menu & it has lots to choose from us. We both had a lovely Scallops , Chorizo and Pea purée starter Mains - Wagu Burger & Kangaroo Steak Sweet - Chocolate Brownie & chocolate with Cherry Ice Cream Latte Good vintage of Prosecco too Complimentary drinks -appreciated too For us a stunning meal to our taste Both of us loved the mains . Outstanding plate of quality food - well done chef Thoroughly recommend both - very tasty and good portions . Added to Izzy’s birthday celebration weekend - fantastic evening Thanks to the Silk Room , and All staff Top quality dining with some novel twists and excellent service .

off a side street, nice steaks. atmosphere is quite quiet and relaxing. lovely restaurant but probably wouldnt go back.

Ate here after the GNR 2019 and had a great night. Had a decent choice of champagne by the glass plus lots by the bottle as well as wine and usual bar drinks. The starters we had were great and enjoyed the steak we ordered. Venue nice subdued atmosphere.

A small restaurant that I imagine is mostly frequented by locals, but I’m so glad we decided to give it a go. We saw the reviews on trip advisor and, as we were only in Newcastle for one night, we wanted something a bit nicer for dinner, so decided this restaurant seemed to tick all the boxes.

Shocking service, waited 15 mins for drinks order, another 15 to order food. Another 20 for the starters and one of them was wrong. The bread and olives arrived with the starter . Main course turned up 30 minutes after that. It wasn't even that busy . Completely shocking service . Stay clear

Had an amazing meal this evening from the moment we arrived the hospitality was first class. Great friendly staff with making food. Nothing to complain about.

We ate at this restaurant last night for our 30th wedding anniversary, beautiful food, husband had the scallops to start,devine! I had terrine, lovely and tasty.service was very good lovely restaurant, will go back and would highly recommend

Nice ambience. Reasonable prices. Went because I wanted the monkfish, and it wasn't available at 7 on a Saturday, with no similar alternatives, which was disappointing.... Pate was outstanding.

We visited the Silk Room for the first time as a family and were absolutely blown away by the restaurant. Everything from the friendly reception through to the generous portions and excellent wine list was spot on and I'd definitely consider going back with my work colleagues next time we're having a meeting. Being on the quayside but away from the stag-type bars was a blessing. I honestly couldn't fault the place. We will be back!

Went here for our anniversary meal booked here as menu looked good, place was small and uninspiring, ordered the chicken with thyme and garlic sauce my husband went for the wagyu burger, As you can see from the pics the food looks lovely but my chicken was dry and tasteless and the sauce barely there! Couldn't understand why you would put balsamic dressing on the plate and a chutney thing! The Wagyu burger was just a burger no added taste to make it any more special and the chips were soggy. On being asked by the waitress if our meal was ok we stated the chicken meal was not, she apologised and said she would speak to the chef. After a while we had to ask the waitress on what did the chef have to say? She said oh, he was apologetic about it. On receipt of the bill we were informed that they had removed the cost of the chicken breast £7.00 from the bill. Staff were pleasant but food was not would not recommend to anyone.

Nice service, nice red wine. Kangaroo steak tastes interesting...

Visited for my sons graduation, looked on trip advisor to find one of the best restaurants and found the silk room.

I was at this restaurant on Saturday and proposed to my girlfriend. Take away the emotion of the night, this place is brilliant! The food was fantastic and at a responsible price, the selection of drinks is excellent but best of all is the service! Even before the staff knew about our special night, they were attentive, helpful and very welcoming! Special mention to Marvin the manager, who was great all night and to the brunette waitress who took photos and was an absolute credit! If you are looking for an intimate restaurant in Newcastle with good food and service, then Silk Room is well worth a visit.

We came to celebrate my daughter’s graduation. The food was excellent and probably the best I have had in Newcastle. Will definitely return

Went here last year and it was great! Visited recently with my partner and friends and it was just average. Drinks order was messed up twice! Ordered a water and the glass had lipstick on, then they returned the glass with no water in it!

Just returned from dinner at the Silk Rooms on a short visit to Newcastle.

Arrived on time for early evening dinner, booked in advance. Welcomed and seated at a window table which was in need of some stain and polish ! The shelf to the right of our table, (below the store cupboard which we are requested to excuse the intrusion but I need to be in there a little later) was a display of empty champagne bottles of mixed high priced brands. Sadly the shelf was covered in dust which sort of puts you off a little, diners are so close to this it should be spotless. A drink before ? Kir Royale which was presented very nicely, a gin and tonic not so nice as there was no tonic water other than aspartame filled slimline variety which I cannot drink, staff proceeded to explain there was no demand !! Ordered starters which were very nice asparagus and poached egg salad, duck terrine with pistachio, good bottle of Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc if a little over priced. Main course lobster for my wife looked and was amazing with huge claws full of meat, my steak ordered medium rare came well done and had to be returned and was quickly replaced with a succulent tasty steak which I thoroughly enjoyed. Table of gentleman 4 came in and had a lot to say about slimline tonic, surprise! Service was attentive on a quiet night with total of 8 covers.

We were in Newcastle for a weekend, coinciding with the European rugby championship final (great match!). This outing was intended to be a birthday treat, and we'd lighted on the Silk Room by the simple expedient of googling "best restaurant in Newcastle"...

This was our first visit to The Silk Room and will sadly the last. We were first in the restaurant and were seated at a table next to the door crowded by silk drapes, it would have been better to be offered a seat of our choice. I ordered a diet coke and my partner a glass of wine. On receipt of the coke it was very flat which I returned and then had to wait a while until they found a bottle of coke (I think the waiter had to go to the shop to purchase).

Although it was a Tuesday evening when we visited and it was quiet we thoroughly enjoyed our meal And the whole experience. The restaurant is quite small so I would recommend booking at weekends.

Reservamos una mesa aquí para cenar después de la final de la copa de rugby europea después de leer buenas críticas. El restaurante sin duda estuvo a la altura de las expectativas. El servicio fue ejemplar y la comida increíble. Mi marido tenía entrante de gambas, bistec para los principales y cheesecake de cereza para el postre. Tuve vieiras, rape y brownie de chocolate. Todos los platos eran excelentes. Todo eso y champaña también, lo que no me gusta!
