Restaurants in Gateshead

Great restaurant serving terrific food. Started with monkfish cheeks and followed up with a lamb roast dinner. A very generous portion and along with roasts and vegetables all cooked perfectly. Highly recommend. Good choice of wines but all expensive. £30 for what was a basic red the cheapest available.

We had a lovely meal and experience with one notable exception. Each of the 4 people who ordered the Pork main course were disappointed with their meal. We had expected a roast pork meal. The offering was altogether too firm and the plate entirely brown. This was a big disappointment to half of our party. The other half of the party were entirely happy.

This was an excellent lunch. The only difficulty was parking which is nothing to do with Cote

21 is a real gem of a restaurant. The food is fabulous and there's a lovely atmosphere. Although it was busy, the noise from other diners was not intrusive and there were plenty of staff to ensure you were well looked after. On that note, the staff are an absolute credit to the restaurant; friendly, chatty and smiley, whilst still being professional. They were attentive, without being intrusive, which is a real skill to master. Every member of staff from front of house reception, waiting staff, sommelier and bar staff, helped to make our visit a thoroughly enjoyable experience. Not sure why I haven't been here before, perhaps I thought it might be a little too formal but that's my mistake as it's not in the slightest bit stuffy, quite the opposite. I may have lost out on a wonderful place and some fantastic food over the years because of a misconception, but I plan on rectifying that error by going back as often as I can from now on.

Lovely food, excellent customer service and great atmosphere! We came here for my nephews 21st and had the best night. Thank you for being so welcoming and bringing out the birthday dessert at the end of the night. Made everything just perfect 😊
