I travel all over in my job, this is the only Indian I've visited in North Shields but for the food it compared very favourably with with a lot of others around the country. Service was good with friendly staff, I did think it was a bit more pricey than I would have expected.

I was at Aramee last night with 3 friends. We'd visited their sister restaurant in Newcastle before it closed and that was fantastic so we were really looking forward to a good meal. The food was not as good as we'd hoped and service was really poor - they brought the wrong dish and then 5 mins later came and told us they had made a mistake and the correct dish would be another 10 mins. By this time the others had finished and rice was cold. By way of compensation they brought us a large cobra - no one was drinking by then so it was wasted - and gave us the dish free but it did nothing for our confidence in the restaurant.
They were quite happy to bring us drinks we were paying for but we had to ask a number of times for a glass of tap water for one of our party.
They really let themselves down in my opinion and the waiters even seemed really despondent. Too many customers, problems with the chef, new staff - who knows but not great, especially with a new competitor opening up over the road and so many curry houses in Whitley Bay

A couple of weeks ago a group of us dined at Aramee. The food at Aramee is good. It was rather busy during our visit, but the service at Aramee was rather hectic and disorganised which I feel needs to improve. A few of the waiters seemed very confused which is why the service also appeared chaotic at the table as we were given the wrong drinks. The food is good at this restaurant but the service needs improvement. However I would still give the business another try.

We use the Aramee fairly regularly for a takeaway meal and have yet to be disappointed. The food is always delicious, and plentiful! Too many other Indian restaurants serve food swimming in oil or rely on chillies to give a kick - here the food is tasty!

My wife and I (along with whoever else we recommend this place to) always thoroughly enjoy eating here. It is the best 'Indian' restaurant in the area that I know of and I know most of them! The food is clean and of sufficient quantity so you are not stuffed afterwards but have just enough (quite a skill that).It is always excellently presented and cooked and is not expensive. If you want great quality food, good ambience, friendly staff, Kingfisher lager on draught then this is the place to come to. Might be wise to book though, even early/mid-week.

Without doubt one of the best Indian restaurants at the moment. I?e been a few times now and the food is fantastic. One of the few Indian meals that is not laden with fat and doesn? make you feel stuffed! Get along to this place!
