Davanti Pizza Italian - North Tyneside

I had my 60th birthday at this lovely restaurant with my family and had a great experience. The food was delicious, the staff were wonderful, and everything went smoothly from the moment we arrived. Despite our large group of 16 people, we didn't have to wait long for our food and the staff always made sure we were taken care of. I would definitely go back to this restaurant again.

The food was amazing and the staff went out of their way to accommodate our large group. We had an incredible night thanks to this fantastic restaurant and their friendly staff!

The service was slow from the moment we were seated until our order was finally taken. Despite having made a reservation, it was not acknowledged by the staff. Additionally, two high chairs were blocking the entrance/exit to the restaurant. We opted to only have main courses, and I was not pleased with the combination of beef and stuffing. The roast itself was tough. The staff were not as friendly as expected, and did not engage in much conversation with our table. I was also disappointed by the lack of Covid safety measures in place, as there were no temperature checks for guests, staff did not wear protective equipment, and menus were not wiped down or disposed of after use.

Visited this place last minute because my partner and I were hungry after our walk. As soon as we walked through the doors it was like we were back in 2019 when Covid-19 didn’t exist. Non of the staff wore gloves masks or a face shield, non of the tables were 2 meters away. In fact they were hardly 1 meter away. As well as this, the cutlery was already on the tables meaning someone could have walked past and coughed or sneezed on them. Finally, we had a Sunday dinner and the lamb was very fatty and the mash potatoes were lumpy and bland. We will not be visiting here again.

We ate here last night and I am sorry to say it was terrible. My starter was so salty, I had the mushrooms...I ate it and didn’t say anything in the hope the main course would be better but I was to be very disappointed. The pizzas we ordered were inedible. My pizza base stunk of other food meaning the oven cannot of been clean. The onions on it were undercooked and all I could taste was the disgusting base.....a sort of burnt/oil/fat taste. My hands smelt of the same and still smell today despite washing them a few times. It was disgusting. My partners pizza was no better. We are both big eaters and pizza lovers and I have never left a bad review before on here so it must have been bad for me to do this!! We complained and the waiter was very apologetic and offered us the menu to chose something else (no thanks!!
