Review Tomahawk Steakhouse Potto - Potto

Had a meal and stayed overnight. Everything was fantastic from the food to the staff, especially the poor barman who had to make my Old Fashioned, however it was one the best I have had. Highly recommended making a night of it. The full English was phenomenal too. 5 stars.

Had a brilliant overnight stay at Potto, great customer service from checking in to checking out. We arrived earlier than planned and the restaurant was really busy but the guy who checked us in found us a table non the less. We enjoyed a gin & a beer and bottle of wine with some food. We had a table booked later on for dinner so just shared a selection of starters tapas style. Our room (5) was beautifully decorated and immaculate, as was the ensuite. Excellent value at under £50 as it was a Sunday night. After a rest & shower wandered down for a couple of drinks before dinner. Great choice of beers, gins & cocktails. Our evening meal was just as good, both had parmos and shared a couple of desserts, cookie dough & brownie,yummy! Washed down with a bottle of wine and finished with Irish coffees. Hubby even took a shot of malt whiskey up to the room as a nightcap. Next morning we had breakfast, have to mention what a great menu choice and all really well cooked. Checked out and had a little 3 mile wander around the beautiful North Yorkshire countryside surrounding thd pub and called back in for coffees before we headed off home, at that point the young lady serving us said the coffees were on the house. What a fantastic gesture, much appreciated and excellent example of customer service. What an amazing hospitality team at Potto from the front of house,  bar & waiting staff  obviously the chefs & kitchen staff judging by the standard of food and not to forget the cleaning team as all areas were immaculate and very well presented. A credit to the business. Thank you! Can't wait to return.

Absolutely beautiful area for a restaurant. We had a 3 course special which was fantastic and the lady that served us was very smart, friendly. Knowledgeable & extremely efficient. It was my friends birthday which we were talking about at the table and the young lady brought her desert on a wooden serving platter with happy birthday in chocolate & it was gorgeous. Would highly recommend.

We came for breakfast and had a really pleasant experience. The food was fantastic and the service was great all for a reasonable price.

Great place to have a meal or drink. Not over priced and pretty nice decor and location. Plenty of seating options but would recommend making a reservation as it was busy a couple of times I have been. Food is pretty good, especially the breakfast. Great staff. Would definitely eat there again when I’m next in that area. 👍🏻

We stayed in the suite for the night and had a great time. From first check in all the way through the staff were friendly and helpful. The food (tomahawk of course!) was fantastic, starters and main! And the breakfast, even though we were told there was a problem with the kitchen was fantastic! Our first time visiting but definately recommend and we will be back!

First time me been here for my bday tonight wow is all ill say best steak iv had staff loverly loverly place location lush to think u can actually stay the night

Stayed overnight, the food was excellent...Partner and I both had the Rib Eye with sides...it was perfect. The 'Tomohawk Bombe' for dessert was lush. Accommodation was superb too. Staff were very friendly and helpful. In short an excellent stay...thank you.

Great food, lovely place, and fab location

Had an overnight stay here with the Mrs. Fantastic welcome on arrival and great staff. Dined in the restaurant and it’s probably the best steak I’ve had and puts Miller and Carter to shame. Room was nicely decorated and furnished and modern bathroom. Definitely recommend this restaurant for the food and accommodation.

First of all I would like to say the food was amazing! However my glass for the water was covered in candle wax. My Friend ordered a gluten free starter to then be told 5 minutes later that it was not actually gluten free. So had to choose another option which was fine. But why would this be on the gluten free menu?? Mains come without one of the sides which we had to ask for, so had a wait while they cooked it. My friends gluten free main come with a salad, as she was eating it she found croutons, which if she had not noticed she would have been very ill. We ordered wine with the main which never arrived, I had to leave my food and go and ask where the drinks were, waited another 10 minutes and still no drinks. When I asked again they said they had not put them through. When they finally did arrive the waitress said these won’t be charged and she said it with a very stroppy manor. At the end the bill come, when I checked it over I had actually been charged for the drinks. I called the manager over and explained all of the above, he give me 10% off the total and explained that they had a new member of staff and this was what was causing the issues. In my opinion we had more than one waitress, all of the staff looked moody, just seemed to be hanging around. I work within the service industry and have never experienced such bad customer service. If I could rate the food I would defiantly give it 5 stars. I feel very let down as this is an expensive restaurant and service is just as important as the food!

We made a night of it for our anniversary. The food was just sensational. Our starter the belly pork was gorgeous, we had the sharing platter for our main - steaks cooked to perfection and the prawns were out of this world. We also pushed the boat out and added half a lobster- wow �!.. And desserts. Well just yummy! The service was amazing from the minute we walked in to the minute we left. We booked the suite for the night and it was amazing - The bath � literally it was 5 star service at its best. We will definitely return :) P. S. Breakfast the next day incl. In the room price was also unbelievable!

Stayed over for the night,room was excellent and quality for the price, the service and welcome from everyone who work there is 5 star, i had problems parking but the management had it sorted within 10 minutes, meals were beautiful, considering some people thought the steaks were expensive, we have spent more on a night out in couples on taxis and drink without a meal, well worth every penny spent on a special night away Thanks to all the management and staff

Tbh I was really looking forward to our visit to this seemingly highly recommended restaurant. However, I as we’re most of our party were disappointed.. the service was at best sketchy and the food was over cooked. We waited over 25 mins for drinks. The steaks we ordered were over cooked from our desired preference. I’m not a great complainer. And the waitress did notice we hadn’t eaten everything.. they did reduce our £400+bill by 10% however the experience was sullied. Would i recommend the place, not sure tbh!!

We have just returned from an excellent meal. We requested a private dining room and it was very impressive, plus the staff were outstanding throughout our time in the restaurant. The food was delicious, we were a party of 11 and everyone of us said our meal was perfect. Thank you very much for making a special birthday meal perfect for our family.

Me & my wife were here tonight celebrating my wifes 40th birthday & we both could not believe how lovely the steak was, it really was the best we have tasted & the staff are all so helpful, smart & pleasant, i couldn't recommend this place high enough !!! Cant wait to go back

Just returned from a overnight stay and all I can say is wow!! Staff are lovely from the moment we arrived could not do enough for us. The food was excellent presented well and tasted excellent. The room was fab breakfast this morning did not disappoint either well worth a visit and shall definitely be visiting there new restaurant on Newcastle quayside when it opens. Thanks again for a lovely stay.

Visited for the first time on 16th June. The restaurant is lovely with decent size tables (nothing worse than 2 people sitting at a table which is only just big enough), the staff are lovely and very helpful, and the food .......... wow! It was amazing. Not the cheapest, but you get what you pay for and worth every penny!

A lovely family lunch - our 2nd visit and we weren’t disappointed, lovely atmosphere, extremely helpful and friendly staff and the wagyu roast beef dinner was to die for!!! We’ll be back 💚

4 of us went tonight for a birthday. 2 of us had the porterhouse steak, which was cooked perfectly to requested, 1 had fillet steak and 1 had a chicken parmo, loved the food and well worth the money. Would recommend to anyone!

Delicious early bird meal last night. All staff were warm and welcoming and attentive throughout. All 3 courses were tasty and would highly recommend to others. Yummy!!

Top restaurant. Fully recommend. Best steak I’ve ever eaten, and I’ve been a chef for 15 years �

Really nice food, really nice staff.. Very helpful and welcoming.. Highly recommend the Fillet Steak, medium with a peppercorn sauce. The sticky toffee pudding was lush! Looking fwd to next visit already. �
