The best restaurants serving Turkish food in Westgate Newcastle upon Tyne North East

We sailed the Panama itinerary on our recent cruise and enjoyed every minute of it despite my nearly losing my left hand middle finger due to the heat swelling it so much my titanium ring had to be cut off with a diamond rotary cutter. My wife and I loved the slides, go carts, virtual gaming experience, spa, and most of the excursions. The entertainment shows were fab and the resident Temperature Band was top class with a fab singer. The dining options were very good and we used 5 of the specialty dining options with only one disappointment at the Italian Onda by Scarpatti restaurant where we both chose veal that was inedible, tough and sinewy, it let the ship down completely! We have booked for the new Viva next year in July around the Med, hope it's Italian is much better! Of the excursions, the best were in the more civilised areas of Mexico and the United States, the others took too long to reach by either coach, boat or truck and then we had no time left to enjoy the place we were going to before we had to get back on the transport to get back to the ship! We would suggest the cruise directors make sure better information is given out in future giving distance and times to reach the destination points. Our stateroom attendant was excellent and our stateroom was very comfortable with an adequate balcony. I got stuck in the middle of the fast slide due to wearing a rash vest and had to get out through an escape hatch, but went on it again without the vest and all went well. Sun loungers and sun umbrellas were plenty on the decks, and waiter Services were good. Overall a great hiday cruise, loved San Francisco stay at the end of the cruise too.

After waiting 1 hour 30 minutes from ordering and there being no sign of our starters…we left a particularly disappointing restaurant and headed here for a takeaway instead. The place was clean, the food excellent and the staff were efficient and friendly. Nothing was too much trouble. It was genuinely fab. I wished we’d come straight here and saved ourselves the time and disappointment. Thanks to the staff for being A1 ✅✅

Lovely breakfast and service, we shall be returning here!!! 👍👍
