Popped in for an impromptu lunch we beardy and little legs. Beautiful view of the marina. We were given the happy hour and normal menu and asked if we wanted drinks. The waiter was lovely and advised us straight away that little legs meal came with a drink so he was happy. Large drinks arrived (Diet Coke for me and lime and soda for beardy). Little legs decided he wanted pizza for lunch and asked for a side of chips. Beardy ordered the chicke, breadcrumbed and tomato and cheese with chips (think it was called Milano - or is that a shoe?) and I opted for the steak Romano with chips. Little legs asked for a garlic bread for starter and we opted for the cheese one. The starter arrived quickly and was lovely - nice thin base and topped heavily with garlic and cheese. There was enough for 2 generous slices each and was quickly polished off - bargain at £3.50. There was a little wait between the starter and the main which I personal thought was the right amount of time to chat and little legs was colouring in the picture provided. The mains arrived and little legs eyes were as wide as sources - the children's half pizza is a very generous portion! Beardy' chicken was lovely and moist and my steak was cooked to perfection! The chips were lovely too. I was allowed a small bite of little legs pizza and the next time we eat here I will be getting a chicken Kiev pizza. Food 5*, service 5* and the happy hour prices including drinks came in at £32 which I personally feel is a massive value for money. Can't wait to return X
Visited today , food was excellent , the soup is the best iv ever had , Adam our waiter is fab , very friendly & attentive , will defenatly visit again & would recommend this beautiful restaurant to anybody ☺️
The service and food speak volumes.
Note: restaurant is on the top floor (3rd?). Also inside a building one wouldn't expect such good food + sterling service.
All were happy to accommodate and come acrossike good friendly team.
The specials are well worth trying. Had the Hake. Excellent, sorry I don't have a picture...
Photos are beef medallions, perfect. & Lasagne bites, very clever.
Cocktails were a little plain for me however I'd recommend the "Dark Brown" made up for the 1st choice.
Visited the other day for a birthday meal, we were given a big table with a beautiful view! Top class atmosphere! shame the music was a bit loud, so being a big group, it was hard to have a conversation all together. Everybody liked their food. The highlight of the meal for me was the chocolate fudge cake with cream - absolutely gorgeous! I've had many chocolate fudge cakes at other places, this was by far the best one! I would come just for the cake alone! The staff were lovely, friendly and attentive. They need to be more organised though; one member of staff kept coming to take our orders after another member of staff had already done so. Overall, would recommend coming here.
Fabulous restaurant in a great location and the food is first class. The staff always make us feel very welcome and nothing is ever a bother, even to the point of helping us up the bank when the lift broke!
Really enjoyable evening and the food was delicious. Pollo Pepe and homemade chips were awesome. The service was a little slow but it was very busy so it's not surprising. Only downside really was the limited dessert menu. A few more adventurous offerings would be ideal 😁 It saved me the extra calories though, so that's fine!
Took mum here for a Birthday meal
Food was delicious and the view is beautiful
Good value for money
Waitress was difficult to hear though certainly needs to speak up and smile
Great food and service, well worth the Sunderland Restaurant week offer
Food and service are very, very good.
It was incredibly hot in the restaurant but the staff can't really help that. Windows and doors were opened as the evening went on to try and get air through but it didn't make a lot of difference. Perhaps having everything open before service starts may have helped. Wouldn't put me off going back.
I reviewed this restaurant in 2020 when I last came, and I loved the food, but the peak times meant that we had a long wait...
We came back today (Feb 2022), on a Saturday evening which I was expecting to be peak time crowds, but it wasn't overly packed or too loud. The staff were lovely as always. The food came super fast; I loved my Marina Vista Penne so much, my mother loved her pasta dish (the name escapes me), my daughter enjoyed her kids meal, and the biscoff cheesecake was to die for. The prices were very fair, especially for the quality of the food!
I'm so happy we came back here and will definitely be coming back again!
My review in 2020:
I really enjoyed the food, however every course was upto 1 hour apart. I understand that it was peak times, so we waited patiently. Food was very tasty and nice, but my steak was a tad overdone. The gamberoni (pictured) was a little overdone as well, but still delicious! I'd return here for sure, I'd just try to avoid busy peak times.
Great place always have fresh ideas on the menu board I had King Prawn aldo. If you like your seafood this was lovely. Had scallops for starter which were cooked to perfection. Staff very friendly . Would recommend this place you won't be dissapointed
Food really nice.
Reasonably priced.
Friendly staff.
