Very attentive staff who are well presented, courteous and professional. Food quality was exceptional and they were more than happy to adapt any dish for allergies where possible. We were there for a celebration and they provided some free drinks and dessert.
One of the best experiences I've had in my locale. Everything from the food to the service was simply exceptional. The team working that evening certainly had their work cut out with us since we were quite unconventional in our ordering (and moving tables). We'd all been to plate day, so we're already a bit sozzled and maybe a bit louder than we ought to have been (sorry if we upset anyone). The team I'm sure we're ready to get home, but at no point forced us out and it was getting quite late. So thanks to all for a great experience! 10/10, highly recommend.
We had the 5 course seasonal menu with accompanying wine flight which was all delicious. The chef was also able to substitute or modify some dishes to cater for allergies in the party. Service was all excellent and the whole meal was nicely paced with breaks where needed. We also opted for the optional cheese course with port.
Absolutely amazing
The price for the 3 course meal outstanding
Best food I've had in a long while
We ordered the cheese and spinach soufflé which was outstanding. The sea bass was very good especially with the grilled shrimp and olive oil and tomatoes. The roe deer was juicy and I liked the winter fruits with it.
Isabella, our waitress, is the sweetest and offered excellent service!
Sampled the seasonal tasting menu
Enjoyed the food and experience.
The restaurant was very busy (I think it always is) staff were efficient and engaging.
Fantastic food washed down with a nice 🍷 wine.
Perfect fine dining
Definitely on my list of great places to eat in Newcastle
We visited 21 for our anniversary dinner, and had the September "bang in season" menu with wine flight. Each dish was incredibly well executed, and paired brilliantly with a glass of wine (or port for the cheese course). Service was excellent throughout. Portions were the perfect size and we left feeling as if the whole thing had been a true experience rather than just a meal. Particular standouts were the almond panna cotta dessert and the grouse pie. Highly recommend for a special occasion or celebration.
Amazing food and great staff but there always one drunk idiot who is so loud they spoil it for everyone in the place as everyone is in pretty close proximity to each other. I'm sure the atmosphere would be great on a quieter night. Or staff could remind people to have some respect for all their other customers.
Just the best. An institution that has kept its place as one of the best places to eat in the north east. The quality shines through, no single dish to highlight as they are all so carefully crafted. A big shout out to the staff who are always most welcoming without being over the top.
First time dining at 21, and extremely impressed by the professionalism of front of house staff as well as the quality of food so hats off to the kitchen also.
Were seated 30mins after our chosen time of 19:30, although this didn't spoil the night, we did wonder whether there comes a point where a complimentary beverage might be offered even though our purchased drinks had been provided.
Tables were available for us to be seated so can only surmise that they weren't able to cater for a full restaurant that night.
Anyway, amazing food and evening for our Birthday celebration!
