Reviews in Newcastle City Centre

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.

This appears to be a pasty shop al la Greggs trying to be something different?I don't actually get the whole French thing - sausage rolls? Cheap factory made bread?Emporers new clothes?

A business like no other. The staff are extremely helpful as well extremely enthusiastic! The baked goods are exquisite and they offer such a wide range that it would be impossible to walk away empty handed! I would highly recommend The French Oven to anyone!

Have previusly purchased bread, cakes, and quiche's from The French Oven and at Halloween had pumkin cakes that were delious and very moist, we also bought scones that didn't make it to our home as we ate them wandering around the market ! The staff are lovely, and they have great product knowledge, prices are really reasonale. The only problem I have is whatever I buy , we all fight over it in the house,, and I never tire of eating it, which is a bit naughty !!, Well done to the whole team gor delivering great home made products !!!

Went to sambucas on the 28th December with a party of 6. Didn't even know it was there. Cannot fault anything, service, food and the price of bill. We all had the 3 course special everything was spot on, shall be going back very soon x

Really enjoyable experience. Know the manager Sammy from his days at Sambuca, Fish Quay ,North Shields. Both of these restaurants never fail to impress.

Never been but sounds good. Going today.

Gorgeous cakes,pies,artisan bread of many flavours and lots of other bread to choose from. Very friendly staff and bargains always to be had. Give The French Oven a try,for authentic real bread at reasonable prices. You won't be disappointed,and you will return for more.

Very nice restaurant with polite staff, no complaints what so ever, the food was lovely and definitely deserves a 4 star rating if not more

A cafe during the day an Indian resteraunt in the eveng both brilliant and terrific value

i have been going to latifs restaurant for almost 8 years! The food is great and hasn't dispointed me yet, The staff are very kind and Mr Latif himself is such a loving man he is a wonderful person, Also Mr.latifs sons are waiters at the restaurant They are such nice kind people, The place can be quiet at times but i usually go with my friends or my dad, it doesn't matter if the place is quiet because the staff are have really good funny banter. I think i will be attending this restaurant for the rest of my life

Having just slated the Sunday supplement offer, I should update. The Mal Maison contacted me following my e-mailing them to complain and I was offered a sunday night room immediately for the advertised £10. Apparently their offer of a £10 room (if you spend £75 in the brasserie) has finished and it is now £25 however Sugarvine is still advertising the £10 price. So well done Mal Maison for customer complaints service.

We went to mimos on a sunday for a late afternoon pint before heading home but found out that they had a comedy night on. we ordered some tapas which was really nice, especially the mushrooms and prawns. We had only ever been to the hyena club but found the comedy really good, a guy called Liam was really really funny and the last guy with an austrailian accent was f**@ing hilarious. The man didnt say if there was another one tho, hope there is!

We went to the restaurant after great reviews, it was my nephews 21st Birthday. First of all the waitress spilt food down my back, then we waited over an hour for our starters to come one starter came which was my partners he waited for the others to arrive but had to start without us, my starter came when they were cooking the main meal. The food was tasty but not worth the money would never go again!

just had the best mushroom risotto ever - lovely relaxed place and stunning prices for the centre of newcastle
