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

Pizzas look amazing but if your looking for a brilliant ice cream try the big apple I absolutely loved it , make this 1 a keeper please

I was informed by my business partner that I had never visited this establishment before. Upon my first visit with my family, we were warmly greeted by the reception staff, creating an atmosphere reminiscent of a traditional Italian village restaurant. For starters, I enjoyed Mussels in a Tomato sauce with white wine and garlic, while my wife opted for Mushrooms in a garlic butter, white wine, and cream sauce, served on toasted Ciabatta. For the main course, I selected an 8 oz Fillet steak with a choice of Dianne or Peppercorn sauce, while my wife chose the Chicken Thermidore in a Brandy, Cream, Mustard, Prawns, and Smoked Salmon sauce. And still have the test of the dishes on our tongue I am highly recommend for a fantastic experience Thank you for the great time we will be coming back

We chanced upon Mario's on Valentine's. We didn't have a reservation but still got a table- it was nicely busy. The food was excellent with great veggie options. Had a lovely chat to Mario who was really friendly and welcoming. And it was reasonably priced. Can't wait to go back.

First visit for a birthday celebration. Great location on the river front at Newburn We went Thursday evening and it was very busy so would definitely recommend booking The food was very good, service decent

Gorgeous mac n cheese for lunch, we really enjoyed it. The choice of toppings was good. Only given 4 stars as would have been good if the tables were being cleaned.

You cannot beat this place for good food cost and service. All staff very friendly and polite. Easy to get to .

Had a wonderful meal here. Portion sizes were great. Very reasonably priced. Had a lovely feel to the place. Would definitely recommend

Was here last night 29th February to celebrate a friend's birthday it was perfect staff brilliant and the food was to die for it was lovely my 2nd visit here and I'll be back thank you

The pizzas are made in front of you and are always served hot. They taste really good, and a couple of slices will leave you feeling full. Service is quick, good value for money, a perfect snack between lectures, and most importantly, for me, it's halal.

We enjoyed a wonderful family visit for lunch. Great menu selection including lunch specials and children's choices. Very friendly and efficient staff.

Best Lasagne, spicy Lasagne is too good

Mi esposa y yo hemos visitado Pizzastorm varias veces y realmente disfrutamos de una pizza rápida, de calidad superior.La pizza de pepperoni es genial. Las cuñas cargadas eran tal vez un poco demasiado para nosotros, pero una delicia.Todo tiene un precio razonable también, ¿qué no le gusta?

Came at 5.45pm before seeing St Maud at live theatre next door (excellent btw) and it was heaving. They say they welcome walk ins but we saw people being turned away so best to book at popular times. Very very loud and close to other guests. The server explained specials to our table and one next to us and good job I already knew what I wanted as I only heard about 1 word in 10!! He chose hake with chorizo piperade and I had monkfish with caponata and shared some garlic and rosemary roasties. Good sized portions and delicious. Plenty of different wines and some beers/lagers.

Great Italian. We went Sunday evening and we had two friendly and attentive staff members. We had bruschetta, potato skins and olives (starter); and pizza, meatballs and arrabiatta and vegetable lasagne. It was all fab and a bottle of Valpolicello Ripasso complemented the food. Highly recommended and not far from Crowne Plaza where we were staying.

Olivia’s energy make the food, the experience, the vibe worth a million next visit. Thanks Olivia for being so kind and absolutely enjoyed the meal recommendations. It must be tiring, but I can see you’re giving it your all and that definitely made this restaurant my top choice from now on. Hope you enjoy your weekend like you made ours ;) !
