Wonderful food. We had fillet steaks and they were cooked to perfection. Lively restaurant to sit in. Negatives: They had blatantly over booked. We were squeezed near a doorway and neighbouring table had someone plonked in the end. People couldn’t get passed without risk ok knocking out wine glasses over with their backsides!! Also, we felt very rushed. Courses came out within minutes of ordering and between each other (no rests). Glasses were cleared away with mouthfuls of wine left in and man was hovering with credit card machine 30 seconds after depositing bill. At £45/ head we don’t expect to be wing rushed out after 90 minutes.

Lovely restaurant, friendly staff and the food was good. Not the biggest choice of vegetarian food but a nice menu. There’s also a small choice on the early bird menu too which is great value.

We enjoyed our visit to Antico. The restaurant was busy, which was a good sign, and the waiting staff friendly and knowledgeable. We had a long wait between starter and main, but it was worth waiting for. the mains were hot and tasty. Unfortunately, they started adding another table to ours and laying up ready for the next customers before we had paid, which was appalling.

Antico was a real find in Jesmond, despite being within a hotel - good food, especially the prawn risotto, good value wines and good value overall, and they take the Gourmet Card! We'll be back!

Lovely food as last time and lovely friendly staff.only complaint would be about trying to park near restaurant but other than that well worth a visit if you haven't been.again two starters two mains and 4 tonic waters bill was just under £40 very reasonable.

Good food, good service, good value. Early evening meal in the busy restaurant, suggesting that it is recognised as a great place to eat. I would certainly return. Pizzas are large with a right amount of topping, rather than overloaded, pasta dishes have interesting combinations. We were sitting right under a speaker but the staff quickly reduced the volume when asked.

A wonderful experience from beginning to end. The manager was aware we had tastecards to use but we received the same excellent service as everyone else and the food was delicious! It was a busy Friday evening with a good atmosphere, staff were extremely pleasant and helpful and didn’t rush us at all even though we wanted a long gap between our main course and dessert, this wasn’t a problem whatsoever. Highly recommended !
