The best restaurants serving Italian food in Northumberland North East

Fabulous find, great pub and really helpful, friendly staff. Will definitely return. Great opening hours and so lovely that it’s a proper pub for the community.

Excellent meal at Casa Rosso. First time trying this restaurant and we were impressed. Bebe was on point with rhe service.

Stayed in Alston on a Wednesday night and this amazing pizza van arrived! The pizzas were freshly made, ready in 5 minutes and delicious! The staff on the van were very friendly and happy to make a pizza whichever way you wanted it.

I’ve been lucky enough to experience Flat Earth a few times and there’s always something different. Imaginative use of flavours, all ingredients home made, such a refreshing change from the usual take away offering.

No longer what you see in the pic, now a converted van, called "School Yard Pizza". But the pizzas were lovely and good value. Turned up on Friday evening but seems they are not opening Fridays now. Sadly this meant we settled for a rather awful fish and chips from nearby hotel. Anyways...back to School Yard Pizza. Highly recommended.

We are a party of 18 people and I was initially a little reluctant to return to Lollo Rosso as previously when we visited in September the service was poor, meals missing, delays meaning 1.5 hours between courses and generally some other negative reviews during that time period, however, the food has always been lovely so we thought we’d try it again. I have to say that the difference in between those months was amazing. We were greeted quickly and the table ready for us. Whilst there’s always some delays with a table of this size, meaning not everything comes out at the same time, the service was greatly improved compared to the last visit. The staff were very attentive and always checked whether more drinks were needed and if everything was up to standard. Starters, main courses and desserts were amazing. More than enough (potentially too much) and everyone thoroughly enjoyed the meals! I was so pleased that this visit was a success and I’ll have no concerns of returning in the future.

We had pizza, one of us the gluten free. It was real Italian pizza. We had no reservations, but they had a table for us. Everyone was very friendly and we came back the next evening. When back in Seahouses, that will be our favourite restaurant. Highly recommended!

Had an amazing meal here, moved to the area 6 months ago and wished we’d tried this place sooner! Very much a traditional old Italian restaurant, lovely food. Will definitely be back.

Friendly welcome. Spotlessly clean brilliant white table cloths and serviettes! Food great and generous portions. Lovely ambience.

Not a very warm welcome. We were not allowed to order drinks and starters first (we had to decide the whole order and order it at the same time) or look at the dessert menu when we wanted (“We will do that later.”). The waitress’ manner was very brusque. The mixed salad was from a bag and the olives were from a jar which was very disappointing for an Italian (or in fact any!) restaurant. The mains were just OK. We didn’t order dessert in the end as the moment had passed.

Best pizza in alnwick by far lovely freindly staff aswel highly recommended 👌

Had the early bird menu here today at lunchtime. For £15 we were expecting a small lunch for the price and we would have been happy with that. However it was a very large lunch which was delicious I hasten to add. The potato skins were lovely as was the bruschetta. We opted for a pizza each, fungi and Hawaiian and they were huge and well topped. We could have opted for ice cream or coffee within the cost of the meal and decided on coffee which tasted like real coffee despite mine being decaf. Have had so many disappointments with decaf coffee but this was great. Atmosphere was really nice, they have a good outside space for when the weather is nice. Service was so friendly, the staff were efficient and we felt that a tip was deserved and it is not often at all I can say that. Just as well we don’t live in Hexham, we would be visiting this restaurant too much 🤣.

Thoroughly enjoyed our meal here. The staff were excellent and the food was really good and served quickly even though we hadn’t booked and they were very busy.

Lovely friendly staff. Greeted warmly from entering restaurant. Fantastic staff. Efficient and with a sense of humour. Food was delicious. Fresh and tasty. Pasta. Risotto. Chicken. Desserts sticky toffee pudding was one of the best we have tasted. Tiramisu was great. It was a dining experience.
