"Is this part of the Al Forno chain or is it a franchise? If so it does not compare to the other Al Forno restaurants. Food was ok but presentation was poor. It was empty and the tables were dirty. Considering it was not busy service is minimal, the button to call works but this takes away from the experience there is no quality check and no up-selling took place. For that reason value for money is poor although not really expensive. A few people allowed of the street to sit and smoke not sure if anything was ordered this gives it a low end feel. Not as portrayed on your website."

"We have dined at Viva L'italia before and had a great experience with delicious food and excellent service. However, this time the owner informed us that the restaurant was undergoing renovations and our reservation was transferred to his other restaurant, Italian Steak House in Windsor. Unfortunately, the food was just okay, as my carbonara, which I ordered without cream, came with cream. The tiramisu, described as homemade, was more like a cake with too much chocolate sauce and lacking in flavor. The servers were nice, but overall I left feeling disappointed. While we did receive a 50% discount on the carbonara, it would have been better to receive the correct order. I really wanted to like this restaurant, but I am unsure if I would return."

"We recently dined at Viva L'Italia and had a pleasant experience with both the food and service. However, we were informed that the restaurant had been renovated and our booking for the Italian steakhouse was transferred to their other location in Windsor. The food was average, and my carbonara order without cream was served with cream. The homemade tiramisu resembled more of a cake, was drowned in chocolate sauce, and lacked flavor. The staff were friendly, but overall, I left feeling disappointed. We were given a 50% discount for the incorrect carbonara, but it would have been better to receive the correct dish. While I had hoped to enjoy Viva L'Italia, I am unsure if I will return in the future."

"From the outside, it looks like another tacky eatery in a street lined with tacky takeaways. Walk through the door and pleasantly surprised. A little deli counter, a back room then a garden. The garden overlooks a derelict abandoned overgrown garden. Not a problem, I am used to this in Athens. What is the problem, and I don’t see in Athens, tenants throwing rubbish out of their windows into the garden. It is ideal breeding ground for rats. The local environmental health should investigate, and if needed carry out enforcement action. To sit outside or not? Maybe too cool when the sun went in, and too hot if it came out as no shade. I decided to sit inside, near the back door. A red rose on the table is a neat touch. I was the only diner. Oh but we were busier earlier. Strange how I am always told, if you’d have been here when you weren’t here, we were busy. The menu was singurly uninspiring. Why panini’s? Everywhere does paninis. I have never understood why. Or pasta. The choice penne (which I don’t like), or spaghetti (which I dislike slightly less) I chose spaghetti Bolognese. It arrived seemingly quick. I was asked when I placed my order, did I wish for Parmesan cheese? It was added in the kitchen. Usually brought to and added at the table. Spaghetti Bolognese is not an Italian dish. It was an artificial dish with elements of North and South. The spaghetti mediocre at best, the Bolognese sauce excellent. I was going to leave but decided to stay. I chose tiriamasiu for dessert. Coffee, Illy, no thanks. For coffee walk to Madame Waffle or Coffee Aroma. I visited a couple of weeks ago, the previous week I found closed."

"Greeted by the friendly owner Andrea and seated at a comfy table at the far end. The other tables had metal seats which did not look comfortable. The range of food was good with lots of flexibility and suggestions. We had pasta and pizza both good but the calzone was a little doughy. The steak was very good and puds were tasty. House red was palatable and we were treated to a complimentary digestivo. We had a good evening and our overall bill for 4 including drinks and coffee was £84."

Prima Restaurant

Pizza • Pasta • Steak • Italian

"Prima is a real gem of a restaurant, a stone's throw from both the Quayside and from the centre of town, so definitely a convenient location but it can get busy, especially of a weekend. I was there recently on a works night out, in a party of at least 25 people, seated upstairs along with two or three others parties of over 25 people too. There was a great atmosphere, a real buzz about the place, and the staff really were enjoying themselves, which was great to see! I did think that with so many large parties eating all at once, the food would either take some time to come out or be rushed and of inferior quality. Wrong and wrong! All our orders came out around the same time (as best could be done with such a large group and the food was excellent. There's lots to choose from, as a guide my starter was scallops with black pudding, parma ham and salad the scallops were cooked perfectly, my only teeny complaint was that the black pud was a bit overdone! Main was a Pizza Lucifero (nice'n'spicy had to be done , and that was also cooked perfectly, the thin base cooked through but not overdone, the right amount of toppings, really tasty. Lots of clean plates and happy people at the end (I would've had a dessert, but everyone else was feeling full and I didn't want to be the lone greedy guts... All prices seem very reasonable from the menu, although cannot really comment as this one went on the company tab. However, I would definitely come back here given the prices. So, if you're looking for somewhere in Newcastle with great food, excellent atmosphere and superb staff, you'll not be disappointed should you opt to come here."

"My husband and I and our three year old came here at last minute for an early NYE dinner and it was just a wonderful experience. Polite, efficient staff, wonderful food served promptly (I loved my lobster lasagna). The place was cosy and all decked out nicely for the holidays so had a festive atmosphere and prices weren't particularly dear, nor were you forced into a special menu because it was NYE. They were respectful of our wee one so felt child-friendly without being overtly and (clawingly) so which I love. Would come again for another NYE."

"I've been wanting to try this place for ages, and I finally made it today! I was not disappointed at all. The atmosphere is fantastic, and the sausage cocktails were delicious. I can’t wait to come back and work my way through the menu and cocktail list! The service was top-notch, with friendly smiles that made the experience even better. Highly recommended!"

Goodfare Restaurant

"I had lunch in Goodfare Restaurant today and it was awesome. The menu had plenty of choices (that's why me and my friend we took forever to decide). We both decided to get the lunch menu, main course and desert. I had roasted chicken, which came along with gravy, potatoes and veggies, and apple crumble with custard cream. My friend got spaghetti bolognese and tiramisu she's half Italian so she's very picky with Italian food but she loved it. And I myself adored the meal. They also serve take-away meals and sandwiches. It's a big restaurant, we came early and it was half full already, but there was people waiting on line to seat when we left. So, yeah, it is good. It is popular. The...read more"

The Oddfellows Arms

➤ 11 Main Street, East Riding of Yorkshire, United Kingdom

Tea • Steak • Cheese • Chicken

"We recently had a negative and unprofessional experience at the Oddfellows Arms. A group of moms had difficulty arranging childcare to meet for dinner, resulting in some members arriving 10 minutes late. The staff at the restaurant unpleasantly complained and pressured us about being late, even though we had not been given menus or offered drinks. The suggestion for the latecomer to order ahead was rudely rejected. The situation escalated until the chef appeared and declared that no one would be served, using intimidating body language and sarcastic comments towards our group of ladies. It is advertised on their Facebook page that food is served until 8:30, but this was not the case. If they require people to order before the kitchen closes, this should be clearly stated. Our group was fortunately able to enjoy a great meal elsewhere with friendly service. The hostility shown by the Oddfellows staff makes it a pub to avoid under its current management."

Bugatti Pizzeria

"This restaurant is a jack of all trades but master of none. I ordered the penne con pollo and found it to be completely lacking in flavor and character. My friend even commented that the sauce tasted like a strange mix of ketchup and milk. It's clear that the chef has lost their passion for cooking and abandoned the principles of good Italian cuisine. I left feeling cheated and would recommend avoiding this place at all costs."

"I got the Salmon with baby potatoes and I have to say that price-quality is good. On the other hand, service is not great the restaurant was busy and the staff did not how to work under pressure so they were really confused and service was too slow. Since we got the first starter until we got the main dish we had to wait for several minutes, one waiter offer us a free drink for the inconvenience(when we ordered the free drink the other waiter told us that “free drink” means only coffee or limoncello…so I got the limoncello that it was terrible. . Additionally, some glasses were dirty."

Milano Ristorante Italiano

"excellent dining experience” 5 out of 5 stars rated on 15 november 2013 new although it is ideal for a pre-theater menu when they visit the hippodrome, eating in milano is worthy to take over the time because it is very good in the did. the menu offers a great choice regarding the price including a fixed tariff pre-theatre that my partner enjoyed very much. as glutton I could not resist the daily special of lobster linguine and I cannot resist that milano was from a generous amount and high quality; both courses were delicious. the tables are beautifully designed and the service is friendly and attentive. I have absolutely no criticism to make (I didn't like the desserts, but I don't like Italian desserts and can hardly blame them for being authentic! . as a pre-oper menu (especially if the opera is Italian! I can't imagine that a more pleasant experience just leaves enough time. visited november 20134 of 5 stars worth 4 of 5 stars atmosphere 5 of 5 stars service 5 of 5 stars eat taken by tripadviser"

"Fast service and good ramen as expected. Creamy and not too salty broth, flavorful energetic spicy miso that blends perfectly and turns the bowl beautifully red, firm noodle. As a ramen lover, however, I am annoyed by the fact that the egg is not included by default. (I asked and refused to order “ramen with egg”. Just, why… Portion is relatively small because of the cone shaped bowl, but I just had a salt beef bagel."

"was really on a nice dinner with my son, who was very satisfied with his garlic brot with cheese kalzone pizza, while I was not all impressed by the gumy calamari and very bland king prawn with spaghetti, which in. a cream garlic sauce that just tasted like pure cream. the garnels were huge, but also tasteless. when we were in whom I suspected that the manager came to take our order, so I gave him my groupon voucher then he went away over minutes later I waved the waiter asked him to take my order when the manager seemed to have forgotten about us, although we were sitting practically under his nose. even without going too much detail, my evening meal made my body much faster than it needed to eat enough to say that I spent the rest of the evening in the toilet. as if I had really found a jewel of a restaurant, but it was the worst Italian food I had ever eaten."
