Tavistock Retro Italian - Gateshead

Found this place while stopping in the Travelodge Northbound services, after finding it on Google the hotel receptionist also reccomend it (which is always a good sign) we were about to drive the 10 minutes it said on Google maps but there are gaps in the services fence meaning it's a 2 to 3 minute walk tops (we were also informed this by the receptionist) absolutely stunning food and plenty of it, the staff who are a family run restaurant were first class, without doubt you should give it a try if you're in the area, we certainly will be back when visiting the North East. Thanks for a great evening

As always, a fabulous meal at Antico! With excellent service, in a lovely ambience, and delicious authentic Italian food. What is there to complain about? Well… The price! We understand that prices have risen dramatically everywhere, but the ‘happy hour’ just ain’t so happy! Not only is the food expensive, but the drink prices are ridiculous. We shouldn’t be paying £7.50 for a glass of house wine! Lower the prices or have some special offers and we will return.

Fantastic! Will most definitely be returning food was amazing and the staff were very friendly The decor of the restaurant was beautiful

Food is always good with healthy portions. Staff are brilliant, always a smile and great service. Early bird menu is as cheap as a takeaway, you can't go wrong.

Spent 3 days in Washington. Always like to try new places, (and had lunch in the Michelin—rated Coarse in Durham). Went back here three night running for evening meal. Great food, service, value, and atmosphere.
