If you want to eat in an atmosphere akin to eating your school dinner in the main hall of your school in the 1970's, then this is the place for you!Zero atmosphere, bland food combined with uninterested table service, is what will welcome you here.Give this place a wide berth....

Fantastic food, great service, and very reasonably priced. We have recently discovered Newbiggin and have been here several times. Everything is perfect other than the entrance. You have to walk through a cloud of smoke and cigarette ends from the bar downstairs. It?s a shame that there isn?t a separate way as it really gives off the wrong first impression!

The waitress who took our order was great. The one who came to take our plates away didn't say anything, smile or make eye contact. I mentioned it to my husband and I think the original waitress overheard as she disappeared and shortly after, the second one came back with a smile and offered the dessert menu.We were the only customers in the restaurant. We couldn't believe it when the staff started to do a deep clean of the furniture, dragging chairs out etc. Surely this should be done when there are no customers?The food was excellent though.

Food was fantastic, menu had a good choice. The mussels were superb for a starter & the portions really impressive. I had the Cozze Fresche & the chicken Valdostana, both excellent. The restaurant is above a club, but don't let that put you off, absolutely superb

We dined on a Monday evening so it was a little quieter than usual however the restaurant was lovely. The food was authentic and delicious with generous portions and very reasonably priced. Would certainly recommend.

Overall food was lovely, just one out of the 4 meals wasn?t right but it didn?t spoil the visit. The restaurant is a big open plan space and being so busy it was a bit loud. Being a busy restaurant make sure you book ahead. First floor setting.

About 100 yards from our hotel, so we booked for the last night of our stay. We only wanted a main course and a bottle of wine so I ordered a steak with a sauce and my wife ordered sea bass fillets. The steak came swimming in the sauce in the centre of the plate and the chips came separately but where is the veg? There isn't any... The steak was awful, grainy and hard to chew. I would assume that it hadn't been aged. The chips were good though. My wife's sea bass came on top of a sort of Greek salad. 2 fillets , that she said were ok. I think she expected maybe new potatoes or something but that was it. It's a good job that we shared a Beefeater meal in the afternoon. Those 2 meals and the wine [ which was good } came to £60.85. Not great value really. It was reasonably quiet, diners wise and I can see why. I don't like doing bad reviews but this was pretty poor.

the appetizers were okay, a little Italian flair was missing and a little more spice. The main courses were also okay and a little more seasoning wouldn't hurt here, otherwise the service was very friendly.
