The best restaurants in University Middlesbrough North East

Once again absolutely gorgeous food we have oder many times and food always the same outstanding quality thanks team zesty bites

Food amazing value and perfectly cooked served staff very good

Delicious food. Aesthetics of the place aren't great but worth going for the food. And really good value. The pricing structure was unclear but we had two huge meals, a complimentary soup at the beginning and a complimentary tea at the end plus 4 other drinks and the bill was only £30.

We were really impressed with this place and would recommend, found the staff friendly, the atmosphere and decor of the restaurant was cute and authentic, and mainly the food was great and reasonably priced.

Best shawarma in TS1, and I’ve sampled most places! Equally as good kindness also. I ordered but didn’t realise it was cash only, only having my phone to pay. The staff were amazing and just allowed me to take it and were like “it’s ok, just pay next time” … next level kindness 😍 thank you!

Fraser’s has always been good and we’ve been there many times but unfortunately the Christmas Day meal was very disappointing. Firstly one of our party was unwell and there was no flexibility in changing the booking as there was a 48hr policy, the person had only got ill that day so clearly we couldn’t have let them know. As we had to pay, we asked for the meal to be boxed so they could have it when well. We were handed some boxes as we left which were just various left overs, not a complete meal. Much of it just half eaten. No meat was provided despite the fact we paid £120 for it. The restaurant was cold and people were in coats, the heating was briefly put on but not for long. The staff were surly and not welcoming throughout. Atmosphere was lacking. We followed up with several emails but have been ignored. It was one of our favourite places but no longer.

Sadly my experience of this restaurant was poor. My order of Diavola Pizza arrived without any chilli or jalapenos and was hence devoid of any substantial taste except strong garlic. As part of a Xmas party group I decided not spoil everyone's evening by fussing for a replacement however the incident should not have occurred. For me the poor food offering was not improved by 2 sessions of very loud drumming to celebrate birthdays on an adjoining table. I appreciate such events might be marked in a family restaurant but there must be a better way than loud drums.

Last time when we where here we were not charged for the chilli oil but i don't know why they charged 1.50 for a chilli oil without telling and it wasn't in the menu. Been there before few times but never been charged for that. You have be transparent to the customers.

Never had a bad experience but this time cake and the icing was very dry. Very disappointed

Was a quiet Tuesday evening but still the atmosphere was good with music and a few groups of people. Bar staff were not only friendly but helpful and the cocktails were great.

It looks like management has changed. The food tastes different (not that good). I would like to give the new management the benefit of the doubt and make the following suggestions: 1. There is very little beef in the Mongolian beef dish. It also needed more seasoning. 2. The salt and pepper shredded chicken comes in chunks, not shredded as the name suggests. There are also less onions. 3. Chicken fried noodles are very greasy.

Great food, great service,great prices

Waiting so long for the food and the peri peri burger was under cooked and the chips were under cook. Not good customer service.

Good night out, plenty of room and food available

Very very shitty customer service and worse food 🤮. Takes ages to get the order. You can go to India and have food there, still they will not make your order. Not even worth 1 star.
