The best restaurants in Low Fell Gateshead North East

Well, after 64 years on this planet, I may have found the best Indian meal - Shahi Tukra at The Monsoon, Low Fell. We've eaten at this cosy restaurant lots of times, and I've never had a bad one. But this has set a very high standard for every meal to come. Delicious chicken breast in a lovely sauce including Spanish Onions which just gave it a hint of sweetness among the delightful (medium hot) sauce. Highly recommended 5* in my books

Showed up for pur booking for a joint birthday meal to find the restaurant closed, in darkness, no sign on the door. They never contacted us to save us a journey. When I tried to call no one answered. Messaged them on messenger and Instagram to be responded with a screenshot of their Facebook post saying it's closed due to unforseen circumstances. Not even a typed message. No apology. This is our third attempt to go to this restaurant. We spent a birthday night trying to get into any other restaurant on the fell, all were booked, so found a takeaway pizza and left it there. Unforseen circumstances happen but the lack of communication, the rude screenshot response with no apology, it's not ok. This restaurant seems to have bitten off more than they can chew if leaving a note on a door for customers is too much to ask.

Bit of a late review as recently joined. Went on my mates stag do. Great atmosphere, but cant really remember much. What I do remember, was good. Its a nice place for starting your evening.

Best pizza ever loaded and piping hot ty

We ordered a buffet for the Kings coronation at blenhiem court and it was excellent no complaints staff were very present will order a buffet food again

My son gets chicken burgers from here and they are always lovely. Staff are also very friendly and welcoming

Chips soggy and funcky taste the pizza asked for extra crispy it wasn't it was like eating focatchia the bolognaise was tasteless like boiled mince never again worst meal in tears from anywhere

Brilliant pub, very friendly staff, lovely atmosphere. great place

1st time visit and definitely won’t be going back. Terrible service and attitude of the staff abismal. Queued for around 10 minutes, even though only 2 people in front of me in the queue. Anyway, eventually I got somewheat to the front of the queue, when one of the woman asked if i need anything cooking. (Yes the food i’m about to order). Anyway i said fish bites, and an older lady proceeded to throw them in the oil. Now at the front of the queue being ignored, i waited and waited awkwardly until a few minutes later another girl asked me what i wanted and i said fishbites, chips and a kebab, she just looked at me and said ‘ok’ and then proceed to go off and do something else. So i waited by the counter again, until i eventually had to say something and asked them to please take my order. Well, after look of disgust from the girl she took the rest of my order then proceeded to go off again leaving me at the counter. I asked another woman can i pay for my order, to which she said you do that at the end. Well, knock me down and call me Sally, but not once did any of the staff clearly provide instructions to me of the ‘next steps’ in this absolute monstrosity of customer service, communication would be nice instead of me having to ask!!!!. 20 minutes later my fishbites were done then i paid. To top it off, the chips weren’t even cooked through, and looking at other reviews this isn’t a one off!!!!! Seems like a little training in basic customer service and communication wouldn’t go a miss!! Oh and also someone else to cook the chips!!!

very average, pizza almost cold, chips cold, chicken just ok. won't order again.

Beautiful food very friendly staff

Excellent service, friendly staff, proper portion size. The best.

Ordered for collection on Sunday 4th of May, mixed grill and sweet and sour chicken Hong Kong, soft noodles, banana fritter. Mixed grill steak was a lump of fat, grissel,sweet and sour was undercooked, the lot was inedible, disgusting and I'm sat now ill with food poisoning, avoid at all costs

I am dreading tomorrow morning. Just had the worst Chinese meal in mm life from here. The ribs were swimming in a tasteless sauce, The Satay skewers were the same and disgusting so went in the bin, tasted nothing like satay sauce. The house special honey and chilli sauce was disgusting and went in the bin. The only decent thing was the prawn crackers which were free.
