    Went for a cheeky date night with the husband. From the moment we walked in we were greeted warmly by management taken to our table which was incredibly nice. Drinks are very good and a really good choice from wines and spirits to cocktails which are beautiful. Food was gorgeous and very reasonable on prices. Food was cooked to perfection by little chef Tane and head chef Jake. The food came out red hot full of flavour and a good portion. This is a beautiful place to visit and definitely will not be my last if I could give them 10* stars I would do. A beautiful little gem in North tyneside

    Once again I had the Flat Iron steak and it was delicious. Also had the truffle & Parmesan fries which are very good but I wish you would put the thick chips back on, they were the best chips I ever had.
