Reviews in Newcastle City Centre

The most amazing buffet restaurant and food ever. x

I was extremely pleased the moment I walked through the door, as we were welcomed in by the manager himself who then walked us to our seats and was being very polite. He was back over again within 5 minutes to ask what drinks we wanted and whether we wanted popadoms with pickles. We ordered both drinks and popadoms, and was delighted to find the popadoms and pickles were absolutely amazing. I'd definitely say they were unique compared to others we've tried at normal Indian restaurants. The waiter came over and asked if we were ready to order our starter and mains. For the starter we ordered chargrilled king prawns and malai tikka. They both tasted fabulous and were cooked to perfection. We couldn't wait to try the main courses! For the mains we ordered, the saffron special murugh stuffed chicken breast with vegetables and Indian cheese (paneer). The flavours in this dish blew me away I can't explain with words! It was nothing like I've ever tried before, definitely not the standard type elsewhere. For the second main course we ordered the lamb shank. The lamb again was cooked to an amazing standard which I couldn't fault. The meat was so tender and was literally falling from the bone. Brilliantly spiced at the right level so we were able to actually taste the lamb itself without it being overpowered. I would be 100% sure to recommend the Indian Lounge to anybody and everybody as they wouldn't be disappointed!

Visited Bon Bar 5th april 2014, within a group to celebrate hubbies birthday. What a fab venue, managed by Tyrone. Currently old assembly rooms which has always been iconic for functions and weddings. Downstairs is the amazing nightclub which early in the night features live bands which can be also seen on the large screen within the fab VIP area. 5* venue in Newcastle City Centre, cannot be missed for a top class night out.

Very good food and nice environment.

One of the best restaurants in Newcastle..service excellent..friendly helpful staff..food superb and consistently good....atmosphere classy and relaxed.,quality cocktails..never ever disappointing..They go the extra mile.

aneesa has always been a good place to eat for us.queyside one is even more convenient for us.food is really delicious and fresh.we want them to put some more deals and give vouchers to attract more people.

We love this restaurant, amazing decor and excellent menu choice. The Service is great and nothing is too much bother. We recommend this restaurant to all our friends. In fact we have friends coming up from London to tomorrow who have asked to go and we are booked in once again. Can't wait :)

Superb service fantastic food.

My son and I went for a meal, my son had the mussels I had carb cake to start both were excellent, for mains My son had the lamb shank, which he thoroughly enjoyed, I had the lamb stew which was superb although I think they used scragg and there was some tough bits of meat, but can't wait to go back.

Had lunchtime special great service. Food was plenty and hot very tasty will be going again hopefully very soon as lots still to sample on menu.

Popped in here last night after the restaurant we were originally going to go to was closed. We were not disappointed. We got a table straight away as there was only one table with a large group on in the restaurant. I ordered the fillet steak & my partner ordered the Kobe beef burger. We could not stop raving about how good the food was. The desserts were also amazing. I got the chocolate brownie & my partner got the raspberry & white chocolate cheesecake which he said was possibly the best he had ever tasted! Even the wine we ordered (the rose Zinfandel was lovely). Overall would recommend to anyone , great food, great service!

I and my partner who lives in York booked a table for two, not having been here before. I have to say it was amazing, food was outstanding customer service spot on as I assess good customer service. I would have to say they pass 100% the owner was friendly and made you feel good to. We will go back there on our next weekend date well done silk room.

We dined here on 18th April for a birthday celebration and what a lovely little place it was. The food was some of the best we have had and we have been to a lot of places! I could not fault anything with the evening, the service was great, the atmosphere nice and relaxed and most of all the 3 courses we had were all fantastic. A definite must for foodies.

Had dinner here on a Saturday night and it was packed. The food was excellent. Had garlic prawns and Wagyu burger which was something I'd wanted to try for ages. Great menu included kangaroo for the adventurous. Wine list great. Service excellent and owner was working as hard as anyone else and very on the ball. Recommend a social meal here.

Me and my wife's family went to the Silk Room on a busy Saturday night. The Restaurant is of a smaller size but unlike a big chain Restaurant it has a lot of character and atmosphere. The food was brilliant. Scallops and king prawns were the choices between the four of us they were excellent. For the main course I had the fillet steak with peppercorn sauce, the sauce was thick and pleasant. The fillet was very tender and cooked med/rare to perfection. My wife had the monkfish which was one of the best she has ever had she quoted. Her parents had the lamb shank and they were also pleased. I will definitely be taking my wife and her parents back to the Restaurant. Thank you for a brilliant night.

I recently returned to the NE and was looking for a nice restaurant for a Saturday night which was not too over crowded and noisy and this restaurant was recommended. We had a no wait upon arrival and the setting was lovely, it's not a big place so I think you get a better feel for a personal more attentive service. The food was excellent, I had the fillet steak with prawns which was among the best I've had and given that I'm a global contractor I can say I eat out more than in.

Visited Silk Rooms for second time last night. We were a party of 6, & all of us enjoyed their meals. Service is good, friendly without being obtrusive, food is excellent. It has a limited menu, but everything is cooked well, & is beautifully presented. Good range of wines, & some fantastic champagne cocktails. Overall, I had a very enjoyable evening & would definitely return.

We visited for my daughter's 24th birthday lunch, as a party of 5 we had not booked and were delighted with the attentive and friendly service offered to us immediately. We had a very tight time frame as we were picking up our mother from the RVI your staff and chef did everything you possibly could providing delicious food and excellent, well paced service. My daughter was touched with the complementary glass of champagne and to finish us off some little treats to take to my mum who was leaving hospital after a serious operation. We sincerely wish to thank your staff; we have visited many hotels and resturants in the NE and beyond a rate you and your staff highly. We will be visiting again and recommending you to our friends and family.
