The best restaurants serving Italian food in North East

Called for an early dinner around 17.00. I was pleasantly surprised that they have a discount up to 17.30. Food was good. Service excellent. I will call again.

Excellent experience for a party meal for a birthday

I had the menu special king prawn with garlic sauce on toast, Chicken in a peppercorn sauce and chips and a chocolate mousse . Every thing was delicious, service was very good and had a lovely atmosphere. A very good evening.

First class meal at first class price no more needs saying

I've eaten here many times and always had excellent customer service, however this time it was not the usual standard. We waited a long time for our meals in comparison to previous visits. We had to get waiters attention when we needed something, whereas normally they would ask if you want dessert menu when clearing plates away. The good was very good as usual, but we were suprised to see we were charged for extra gravy and horseradish sauce. I can understand the charge for gravy even though we have not been charged in the past. But horseradish to accompany the roast beef seemed a little bit steep.

We've been many times. As usual a delicious pasta.

Love this place. The staff are lovely. The food is gorgeous, it tastes homemade. The chips are homemade. Do not a portion of chips per person, you get loads. Buy one portion for 2 people.

Small but cosy. Good coffee and a perfect escape from the torrential rain!

Customer service: ***** Value for money: ***** Delivery: ***** Quality: ***** I've had a number of takeaways from here with family members and the delivery is always first class from a very polite driver. Food is delivered surprisingly fast and is always hot and we'll presented. Consistency and portion size is first class and quality is never compromised. You're my new favourite take-away ...

Authentic Italian pizza. Visited here on Sunday as a couple, and we were both very impressed with the price and quality of the food. Extensive menu with something for everyone, with everything freshly home cooked. Sadly it was very quiet, sign of the times. I do hope the delivery side of things is busy as the owner is lovely and obviously a very talented and experienced chef. Having grown up locally this was the place to be when formally La Piazza and the quirky authentic decor brought back fond memories. We will be returning and have already pencilled another date night in the calender to revisit. Really, really good tasty home cooked food. The prices are a give away.

Lovely food and the service was top notch.

This restaurant's service is exceptional ! It is the Gold Standard by which others should be judged. Nothing was a problem and the attention to detail was amazing. My daughter had a small gathering of very close friends and relatives after getting married at the town hall. The owner and his team made the celebration very special. I highly recommend this place and will be using it often. The food was also delicious.

i decided to try the parmo, one of the best parmo's I've ever had, I ordered the meat feast but asked to have olives added on which they did for me, it was piping hot and all good quality ingredients, big fresh chunky chips and nice fresh salad, it was gorgeous, my partner had the mixed shwarma plate and said the same thing, piping hot and all good ingredients, this is our third time using this place over the last few weeks and will be ordering from here more often , thanks it was lovely 😀

Lived in Sunderland my entire life and have never visited until now. The place is so cute inside, the staff are lovely and the food is absolutely gorgeous. Will definitely visit again!

Lovely food and very attentive waiting staff.
