- GGayleNewcastle and Northumberland •1 review4.0Dined 2 days agoWe had a lovely experience at No.32 overall. The staff were very pleasant, welcoming and knowledgeable, and the food itself was lovely. The initial service was a little slow, but it wasn’t a problem, and once ordered, the food arrived quickly. There were just a couple of things that could have made the experience even better. Our table for four was very small, especially with food, sides and drinks to accommodate, meaning we ended up having to put some things on the floor to make room. The other issue was the plates. The tin plates on the marble-style tables cooled the food very quickly, particularly the pizzas. By the time we were halfway through eating, the food had already gone cold. Warmer plates, or plates made from a different material, would make a big difference. Our daughter is vegetarian, and the staff were very helpful and accommodating with her requirements, which we really appreciated. The prices were good value for money, and despite the few things that could be improved, we had a good experience. With slightly bigger tables and plates that help keep the food warm, No.32 would be even better. We’d happily visit again!More infoNo 32££££• Pizza Bar• Sunderland•4.8
- MMelanieDurham/County Durham •1 review5.0Dined 4 days agoMy favourite place to eat in the whole of the UK. Food is always excellent quality, staff are very attentive without being too much. We always come to Vitos for any special occasion, anniversary, birthdays, celebrating new jobs and exam passes. The restaurant has a lovely ambience and there’s also a good selection of drinks. Highly recommend!More infoVito's Osteria££££• Italian• Sunderland•4.9
