Reviews in Newcastle City Centre

Cheap, authentic and cheerful. Thats all one has to say about this place

Me and my partner ended up at khan's last night after it had been highly recommended to us and we weren't disappointed! we've enjoyed the menu khan's had to offer, food tasted fresh and authentic it was absolutely gorgeous!I will never be able to eat your normal British Indian food again, it just doesn't compare. Service was impeccable throughout and ambience very relaxing.its also BYO which makes for a cheaper bill....I'll definitely be going again!!

Been twice now and took a number of colleagues from work with me on both occasions. Waiters could not be more helpful. I even ordered something that was not on the menu and the chef came up trumps!! Makes a change from restaurants where they cannot be bothered. Food was great and the wine was good and also reasonably priced. Would recommend this place to anybody.

Lovely place for romantic meal or cosy dinner with friends. Went with my husband and enjoyed terrific food served by friendly, attentive but not obtrusive staff.Very reasonably priced Will be back with friends and family.

I AGREE WITH THE OTHER RECOMMENDATIONS - VERY GOOD AND FRIENDLY PLACE ESPECIALLY FOR THIS CORNER OF NEWCASTLE.

The food is excellent the same as the staff especially the general manager gema i think her name ones will be recommending this to all my friends and family

me and my friend were in Newcastle for a girls weekend, from Edinburgh. A work colleague recommended that we try Pinochios's for food. It was fantastic, the best meal i have had in a while. The service was very friendly. The atmosphere in the restaurant was very welcoming and relaxed. I would defo recommend this restaurant to anyone who likes a good meal. Next time im in Newcastle i will defo be going back Rhona Robertson, Edinburgh

Went for a birthday treat with family. 6 adults and 2 children. Children didn't want spicy food so we asked if there was anything else. Waiter said they could do fried chicken and chips and we agreed that would be very nice. We didn't ask the price (more fools us) and they didn't say. When we got the bill we found that most of the dishes were between £5-£7 but the children's meals were £9.95 EACH. Their meal consisted of about 5 or 6 pieces of chicken about the size of a 50p piece each, chips, peas and a bit of salad garnish. We all thought this was outrageous and they have lost some regulars through this.

i felt the manger and staff very arrogant and generally unpleasant the waiter on the occasion came to the table numerous time within the space of 25 minuets very excessive the food was ok, the risotto was good although it was a little hard, a few other members of my party didn't receive the same "high" standard the restaurant that we had be told to expect the ambience was well dead and the smell of the lace was of cleaning products seemed veery over powering.

I have been eating here for a number of years and recommend it most highly! Especially if eating before 9.00 p.m. - £7.95 for 4-course meal - excellent. Definitely give it a go. Food is superb.

Awful

I love this place, great to calling for bite to eat after work and its always consistently lovely. The salads are always fresh and well dressed but I have a particular taste for the pizza boschetto which I seem to order alot. Staff are always lovely and you never have to wait too long for food. people always recommend places to try but i keep coming back to La Vita as nothing is seems to compare.

Last night was the first time at Zizzis. Very loud and crowded.,you cannot eat your meal properly because you are so squashed.Very impersonal staff, you feel like you are on a conveyer belt for service. Pizzas ok, lasagne is the smallest I have ever seen, a small strip in the middle of a oval dish and very thin and well below average with no garlic bread or salad ,just sitting there looking lost.Pasta very bland, and rissotto quite tasteless ie, the one with chicken breast and mosserella is just 2 strips of chicken on top of runny rissotto.Banana and chocolate dessert was a burnt waffle in sauce , could not find the banana,torte lemone was below average bought in.All in all a not very good experience.

It was okay, the tomato and pesto flat bread to start was lovely, but the rest of the meal was a bit disappointing; bland and long wait for a quiet lunch time.

We are not vegetarians but this place does not let anyone down, nice food, served by people who seem to care about what they do! Especially nice for lunch, but a nice change for evenings! Bring your own booze!

I LOVE IT !! Its my treat... always a good buzzin atmosphere and the staff are very friendly and food is YUMMIE what more can i say except try it and you will enjoy especially the squid and brocolli and dumpling soup mmmm.....

best indians take away i have ever had the pizza's are really nice and cheap too 10* try it out.

i have lived in Newcastle for three years and am really pleased to have found such a chilled out friendly place to eat and the food is delicious, not two ponsy just right! the whole place has a relaxed anything goes atmosphere which i really like.
