The best restaurants serving Italian food in North East

Popped in for a drink on a walk with a view to potentially have dinner with my husband including 10 month old son - unfortunately unless there’s a crack down on teens vaping inside the pub on tables next to us we wouldn’t return.

Always go to get my wife a pizza

Great service, great team , food, fantastic, excellent experience, and on our favourite list

Friendly and efficient service. Good portions

A party of 20 for a special birthday family celebration. Booked in advance. Sent orders in advance. What a shambles. Service was slow and poor, food came out with long periods between each diners meal resulting in some sitting for ages waiting for their food whilst others finished theirs. . Food was awful except pizzas and garlic breads and salad. Manager was uncooperative when discussing issues. When food was sent back it was recooked not replaced. Atmosphere was flat. Not recommended.

The food is perfect as always. Thanks

Kayleigh was very helpful and pleasant

Vine a este restaurante hace una semana, y vaya, ¡qué placer! Los cócteles eran fantásticos (2 por 1 todo el día) Mi carbonara estaba absolutamente deliciosa, y probé la pizza de mi amigo con queso de cabra — ¡fue impresionante! El servicio era de primera categoría también. Nuestro camarero realmente se tomó su tiempo para ayudarnos a elegir nuestra comida y bebidas, y todo lo que pedimos resultó ser perfecto. No puedo recordar su nombre, pero sí recuerdo que era polaco y súper amable! Sin duda un lugar que volveré a visitar.

Collected my order & staff were very helpful and assisted me promptly. Food was delicious & very well priced: will most certainly be back :) Thankyou

Well where do I start. After playing pool match in Boldon we got back to the Ben Lomond to late. Being hungry my, well known mate, and I, went to this establishment. My friend who actually worked on their set up and comes in to engineering problems said he's my mate look after him. I wasn't expecting anything but when I asked for salad with my mixed kebab and garlic comments were passed as a joke even the responsible lad behind the bar of the place joking with my mate and taking £1 off. Ok nothing to worry about eh? Having ordered the mixed kebab, I was asked do you want onions and peppers, my reply yes. Why? Because it's part of the order!!!! So watching the same responsible person putting two pincers of kebab meet into a silver food tray meant nothing to me, until I got home. Opening up a tray the same I realised that it was indeed what I'd seen filled with extras of onion and pepper before the other meat. Why was I asked about this and if I'd said no would the poor portion have been better. The fact there was two pitta made no difference to me, one was enough, they didn't ask me about that and change or add more elsewhere. Opening further I found the salad, normal and expected until the sauce. The sauce they and my mate had joked about wasn't garlic but chilli. Even the fact that they'd joked about the order they couldn't get it right. I didn't expect to get any special service but my mate who has done so much for them just wanted them to respect his request. I care that he hasn't had the response he hoped for but even worse for me, STANDING IN THE SHOP PLACING AN ORDER, AND THEY STILL COULDN'T GET IT RIGHT. Spoilt my meal and night.

Called in with our 2 children on Saturday. We hadn’t booked but we were seated very quickly. We were served by Amy who was very professional. The pizzas we ordered came out very hot with plenty of toppings. We will definitely be returning very soon.

So sad I have wanted to stay here fir many years. Food a great let down

Don't bother… Iced coffee is microscopic and has no ice in it. Smoothie may as well be the fruit with a straw sticking out as it doesn't really get blended - also they only put one fruit in rather than a mix… Food was pretty far below par, it would nice to have a warm panini and not yesterdays chips.

Lovely Kabab very good value for money
