The best restaurants serving Italian food in Newcastle upon Tyne North East

Outstanding food with great service every single time. Without doubt the best place to eat in Gosforth.

Amazing! We ate in and the servers were all so lovely ☺️☺️

Ordered pizzas twice to collect, the Salciccia & Rapini and Nduja Like Goats Cheese pizzas - both were absolutely delicious, ready on time despite the restaurant itself being incredibly busy, and the staff all seemed happy to be there! Has definitely become my go-to place for pizza in Newcastle, and I'm looking forward to booking a table with some friends and trying the pasta! My only request would be for dipping sauces, although they're easy enough to make at home.

Loved the food and had amazing service

The food is fantastic. I would highly recommend it

There isn’t anywhere like this in Newcastle. The food is surprising in a really good way. The wine (we bought from the per glass options) was outstanding. The service was lovely and there was a full house on a Thursday evening, with happy people chatting in cosy surroundings. My husband had a really nice birthday. We will come back.

I’ve to admit this is the best Italian restaurant in Newcastle. The staff being so friendly they helped me select the dishes that were vegan or vegetarian but with no eggs. The food was served on time and sardinian pasta were amazing. Loved the fritters I had, it was the best. 😍

Really enjoyed the 🍕 nice thin dough, creative toppings, very quick service. The staff were attentive and friendly. The atmosphere is relaxing.

Service from katy was amazing! Friendly and knowledgeable! Natural and pleasant Food was delicious and wait was not bad at all for a busy Saturday evening

I had a very disappointing experience at this restaurant. When I arrived, the employee who greeted me didn’t even bother to communicate properly. She simply led me to a table without saying a word, and then left me waiting there for several minutes without any explanation. Her body language was incredibly rude and unwelcoming, which made the whole experience uncomfortable. Basic courtesy and good service go a long way, but unfortunately, I didn’t experience any of that here. It was a frustrating visit, and I won’t be returning.

Cosy Italian restaurant in the heart of Newcastle.

Incredible food and great staff

I've been regularly eating at this restaurant for some 40 years since I was a child. The original owners have now moved on and it seems the restaurant has now lost it's way which is incredibly sad. The prices have rocketed up which in some ways is understandable due to the current economic climate but what I object to is the quality of the food is now also far poorer that what it was. The Calamari starter was always a francesca signature dish for me and it what I was presentes with yesterday was a sorry state of affairs. Cheap frozen calamari rings you would expect from a low end pub chain and although the mains were OK the cost no longer offers good value as far as I'm concerned. Everything seems to be an issue for the staff now, we were a party of 4 work colleagues and wanted to just split the bill 4 ways, this was refused with staff saying they will only split it down the middle. Who cares!! Just split it 4 ways and move on keeping people happy for christ's sake. They also have a cheek having a sign asking customers to smile at the queue point when the bar staff look like they have just been to a funeral. It is sad as I've been a frequent visitor for most of my life but unfortunately I will no longer be coming back. Everything is about the money these days and in this case they have compromised the quality.

Amazing food, service and decor. Went for a 3 course Sunday dinner for £25.00 each simply amazing! Stater calamari main lamb Sunday dinner and dessert

This was our second visit to Vincenzos and it did not disappoint. The food, atmosphere and service was fantastic, as my wife is visually impaired all the staff were very friendly and helpful regarding the menu. Totally recommend booking a table next in the Area.
