Sambuca Quayside in Newcastle upon Tyne

Nice enough food at very reasonable prices. Services was friendly and fast and we were made to feel welcome. I would recommend for a quick pizza and pasta dish. The desserts actually bump my rating up to 4 stars! Delicious!

We booked to go to Sambuca when the whole family was over from Lancashire for my graduation. The Trip Advisor reviews were all really good so we thought we'd give it a go. So glad we did! The staff were all wonderfully welcoming and attentive and the food was fantastic - amazing pizzas! A very special mention has to go to Thomas though, who made sure we were very well looked after and even serenaded each member of the family with their own acoustic song! Great night out and definitely one to remember. Thank you!

Thank you for a lovely meal Sambuca staff and Thomas, food and service was amazing. We cannot wait to come back, see you all again soon.

Lovely service and delicious food. Only hitch was we booked a reservation a week in advance and upon arrival had to wait for them to prepare our table, this wouldn't have been an issue in itself.However, we waited by lovely big empty booths and tables to the rear of the restaurant but were eventually seated at a very cramped table squeezed in a too small gap right by the door/ walkway. Customers were bumping into us and using the backs of our chairs for support as they went past the whole meal. Only that one issue which was a shame as everything else was phenomenal.

Lovely Italian restaurant, on the quayside. First time I have been there. Saw it when we visited Gino D`Acmpos restaurant which is just a little further up the road.A very informal place with excellent staff who are very friendly, great food and good value for money.Minestrone soupChicken pizzaHomemade strawberry cheesecakeCheckout there website for special dealsPS be careful when you order pizza there bigger than you think

Excellent night, went for a cheeky meal with my wife, usual great service, waiters excellent, next table had a birthday so the waiter brought the hats and had a sing a long with them... Plus he crashed a 1st date singing when I fall in love to them. Great food, loads of it and great atmosphere

Visited on 03/01/22.. Thought we'd try this place on the Quayside for my wife's birthday. It wasn't particularly busy so we got settled in pretty quickly. Staff were friendly and attentive. We sat in the conservatory area which looks on to the Tyne and the bridges (nice). Ordered drinks and food and it all came in good time without any hassles. Food was fine. Quite generous portions too. We paid about £115 for the five of us plus a tip. Not bad at all at today's prices.I'd say the highlight of the evening was our friendly host Thomas (proper Italian) who made us feel very welcome and relaxed. What a lovely guy! Even serenaded us with his guitar and songs for the best part of 15 minutes! We sang and laughed and it was just the best end to the evening. Sometimes you can feel awkward on such occasions but we really just enjoyed it so much. We'll definitely visit again..Thank you Sambucas and Thomas.

Went to Sambuca to celebrate my son's graduation, this was the first time I went even though my wife had been with some friends and had insisted for us to go as she felt in love with the place. What an amazing find turned out to be, Staff was incredible, they couldn't be more helpful and jovial, the food was amazing, we were a party of 12 people and the service was fast, we were served within 20 minutes and again the Staff was so helpful and happy. The manager came to our table in repeatedly occasions to ensure we were ok and always making a fun comment and then the cherry on the top, a very friendly Thomas came with a guitar and sat with us and started singing to celebrate my son's graduation and ending our night just perfectly. What a hidden gem, this place should be in every city just to make any city happier and the views of the Tyne and the fabulous bridges was just fantastic. Can't wait to come back again.

Very cool place. Warm and the Italian ambiance with the sound and the river scenery. Just amazing! The food was good. I ordered somethin like Seafood with spagheti. It was good. The price was okay.. And The waitress was really nice.
