Reviews in Newcastle City Centre

We (the hubby and I) have visited HanaHana several times, either on the spur of the moment or as a celebratory meal. We've always been impressed. Not only with the quality of food, but also the amiability of the staff to our suggested menus. I've booked for tomorrow night as a surprise for the other half (although really it's just an excuse to divulge in sushi et al!). xx

Amazing food and service, have visited the restaurant many times and will continue to go back. My whole family loves solomons and this is often the choice restaurant for birthdays, celebrations etc!

The Silk Room is cosy and intimate, perfect for a romantic Valentines meal. Having booked due to an excellent recommendation from a friend, I had high expectations...and it did not disappoint! We were shown to our seats on arrival, surprising given how busy it was. Since it was Valentines day, there was only a set menu on offer, this however was not a problem as all the food on sounded amazing...I still couldn't decide!! I finally chose the Parsnip soup, followed by the Sea Bass with Lobster Ravioli, while my partner chose the Pate, followed by the Rump steak. Our meals arrived promptly, although we would have gladly waited given the standard. For dessert we chose the Chocolate Fondue to share...a chocolate lovers dream. The night as a whole was amazing. Service was outstanding, the food was delectable and the atmosphere was romantic, particularly when the gentleman on next to us proposed to his girlfriend. A most enjoyable evening. We will most certainly be returning soon.

The quality of the food at Silk Room was excellent, the atmosphere was buzzing and the service was spot on. We had a great night, wonderful food and excellent wine. For Newcastle prices, we felt it was really good value for money. The King Prawns were the best I've had. I love this restaurant and will be returning again soon.

Just wanted to say that having travelled to Newcastle on 19th February from a wintry and not so bonnie Scotland to end the day with dinner at your establishment was well worth the journey. Fabulous food, spectacular cocktails and ever attentive staff made for a truly memorable night. Thank you.

The service is appalling and I would recommend against going here. Very unpleasant experience. Not surprised it was almost empty. The food is ok but as good as many others - they don’t get that food is a complete experience not just the food - I recommend you avoid and recommend SR invest in recruiting people who have a good attitude

Last Friday I went for a meal with my children and wife. The food was great, there was a friendly atmosphere and my family enjoyed it hugely, especially my kids aged 6 and 10 so the kids menu was amazing for them. I was recommended by a family friend to go, I am glad I did and I will return shortly.

The service was so erratic 3 people in 1 minute then none for half an hour. The squid was rubbery with heavy batter The sizzling beef with ginger and spring onion was bland with no ginger The mango curry was tasty The batter on the banana fritter was like cardboard When we complained the staff were rude and the head waiter said not to come back Eastern Meadow take away in Jesmond is half the price and 3 times as good.

excellent food super service < highly recommend .

good

I would not recommend this place, I asked for a packet of chips, and paid with a ten pound note. The lad tried to fob me off with some random note as change, which wasn't legal tender. When i brought this to the gentleman's attention, i was rudely informed that he received the note from a prior transaction, so therefore was fine. Upon hearing my revulsion, he snatched the chips and give me my tenner back after i displayed my chagrain . I hope that this so called business goes under as they are charlatans. Or robbing bastards, in common parlance.

have visited this restaurant twice lately at a lunch time, it was fantastic, value for money and lovely food. the service was great too, well worth a try.

I found Noosh to be a very pleasant evening. The decor is very relaxing and the staff are attentive and patient. The selection of wines is superb and the head waiter is happy to take time out to explain which dishes best suit your meal. The food was beyond my expectations, cooked to perfection and presented with obvious care and time.

Food was very good and portions very large! Service great as were the surroundings

We are regulars at Raj because, the staff very friendly, polite and helpful, this includes the owner who always speaks even if we just pass in the street. The food is excellent and very reasonably priced, especially their pre 9pm special which runs Sunday to Friday, also unlike some restaurants the specials are not smaller than the normal menu and there is a good choice on the special menu. Really recommend and we will be going again soon.

Can't really comment on the food as we didn't actually get any! We were made to wait 15 minutes in an empty bar before our drinks order was taken, shown to what can only be described as a conference style table for 30 - there was 6 of us so we refused it and, the icing on the cake, sat for over an hour without any contact from any member of staff observing other diners who had arrived after us, being served their food. We should have known when the table to our left cheered as their rice arrived, that this was going to be an experience. They had received their main course 30 minutes earlier and had been repeatedly asking for the accompaniments. After over an hour we decided to leave. My husband was manhandled back into the dining room and the waiting staff tried to physically sit us back down. They told us the starters were coming but we tried to politely tell them it was too late and we were leaving. They actually barred the doors! We paid for the one round of drinks we had barely touched and were finally allowed to leave! If it hadn't been so scary it would have been comical. At no point did anyone say sorry which at the very least is a disgrace. We walked to Stowell Street, went to the Landmark where we were greeted like old friends, impeccably served and well fed. I will never enter Latif restaurant again and nor will anyone I know! Bad on all levels.
