Muse in Stockton-on-Tees

We attended Muse around 5:30 on a Friday evening, it was fairly quiet when we arrived and the table we had booked was ready and waiting for us although we arrived early. It was nice to have a text reminder about our booking with an easy option to cancel had we needed it.Our booking was based on a recommendation from a colleague and we weren't disappointed. Bread and olives though not on the menu were served quickly, although I'm surprised both were individually priced as these were not served separately. Both the hummus and aioli were delicious and fresh tasting. Would recommend these whilst you wait!We had a variety of mains on the table pictured are the burger and short rib (although no mussels), both were delicious and filling. We had sides of 'proper' chips and onion rings, the other mains on our table were chicken and pork belly - all of which looked delicious and were served in a good amount of time based on the whole tables order. Our service was exactly how you'd expect, attentive but not intrusive and whilst we did have drinks on the bill we also had an endless amount of table water which was filled frequently and without the need for request.Puddings shown are peach souffle and the lime and white chocolate cheesecake. The souffle was warm with subtle flavours but too much for me to finish after the filling portion of rib. The cheesecake on the other hand gave me serious desert envy and would recommend even though it wasnt my choice. The texture was unreal and so light without the usual density of cheesecake, I asked but sadly they don't offer a takeout service which is a shame as that cheesecake needs to be consumed as one of your five a day.I'm looking forward to another visit - even if just for dessert!A table for 5 adults including tip (10% added as standard on the bill) for two courses was about £170.

We really enjoyed our time at Muse, great spot for lunch and more! Friendly staff with a chilled atmosphere. Food is slightly on the pricey side but the choice, quality & service make up.We will be returning customers.

Fantastic festive work get together. Really enjoyed the food, service very attentive and price was good. Great atmosphere. Will definitely get back there again soon. Thanks

Amazing food, excellent service - even mother seemed impressed. Didn't get pictures of all the meals as we were too busy eating. I think one of the starters was a ham hock risotto. I had a fish main course which was delicious. Very busy even for a Monday evening - parking in Yarm is always tricky but we found a spot quite close by.

Just had dinner here from the Teesside Restaurant week menu (3 courses for £15) Absolutely delicious from starter to dessert. Top marks

Great restaurant, fantastic food, looked after my wife's gluten-free requirements brilliantly 👍

Very tasty food, quite pricey but definitely worth the money. Also had a gluten free menu,not sure about other allergies but lovely service and nice mocktails too

Sat just outside for a family meal. Many great choices on the menu (including gluten and dairy-free). The food was excellent, as was the friendly service. We will definitely visit again.

Had breakfast here, great atmostphere and service. I like the freshness of the food. I think the frech toast could be more sweet. However, it still taste good.

Went for a cheeky birthday lunch and it was excellent. Service was prompt, courteous, not rushed and happy. The food was very good and we'll definitely go back. Triple baked soufflé starter was best I've ever had
