The best restaurants serving Italian food in Copt Hill Sunderland North East

First time in there, live local and it has not long been re-opened. The board outside with quiz night drew us in. We went in with average expectations but actually had a really good night. The food is pub grub, but it was nice, and plenty of it. The quiz was one of the best I have been to, and the quiz master was entertaining. Shame there was not many people in there, but I guess it is just a case of getting the word out that it is worth a visit. I don't often review places, but thought it well deserved one.

Having often driven past this restaurant we decided to give it a try. We booked a last minute table (20 minutes in advance) and turned up not knowing what to expect as we had never been before. It is cash only and parking is limited so bear this in mind before you go. The restaurant has a lovely atmosphere, the staff were really friendly and the food was fantastic! We all enjoyed 3 courses and a couple of drinks (alcoholic) and both were delicious. It worked out around £40 each for our meals and drinks which was excellent value. They even made a cocktail that was not on the menu for one of our group! Excellent food and service, we will definitely be back!

Absolutely shocking! Farah wants to look at his staffing! What an amazing cook but brought down by his front of house team!

Used to order at least once a week as loved the food but the last 3/4 times we’ve tried to order we have rang none stop for over half an hour but call fails and comes up “caller busy” as if phone has been taken of the hook. At first we just put it down to them being busy as it often took a while to get through but became ridiculous after a few times. Tried to order tonight and started ringing at 8:05 and rang over 200 times and didn’t manage to get through before they shut. When I messaged last week to ask if they were having issues with their phone they never even bothered to reply. Such a shame as like I say we love the food but don’t think we will bother trying anymore, how they make money to stay open or surprising when they can’t even answer the phone.
