"Having visited this restaurant before and having enjoyed it, it was disappointing to see that things have gone downhill. We went for lunch and the restaurant was not busy. We were not greeted on arrival and were not offered drinks. After waiting for 40 minutes the (unsmiling)waitress finally came over and I had to ask for an extra menu so that we could all look at the same time. She then told us that all orders had to be placed at the bar, which was news to us. On ordering at the bar, we were incorrectly charged for 2 out of the 3 orders, so she had to ask for help to put this right. We were still waiting for drinks when the food arrived and had to ask again for these. Prices are fine, but this restaurant won 't last the course unless service improves. Opportunities are being missed. Since we last visited, the 'specials ' are no longer offered, which is a great pity. Sadly, we are unlikely to return."

My wife and I stopped at this restaurant for coffee and a snack and felt very comfortable. We both loved the atmosphere.

This was my first time visiting this restaurant, but it definitely won't be my last. The food was delicious, the presentation was excellent, and the value for money was amazing. Thank you to all the staff! Speisekarte ansehen

Lovely atmosphere, the food is reasonably priced and you yet lunch deals, the only problem is that the coffee included in a lunch deal is instant, and for a ground coffee or latte you would need to pay extra. Also the breakfasts are lovely, small size was just right for me.

The restaurant concept is promising and the food is good, especially considering the price. However, there are a few areas for improvement. They advertised a blue light discount that was not honored, so it should be removed. The menus were dirty and incomplete, although they could easily be cleaned. Additionally, sitting at the back, there were a few conversations from staff that I would have preferred not to overhear.

Just a big well done to the 2 new trainees who were working under difficult conditions on 1st June. A baptism of fire that’s for sure. They remained professional even though they were under massive pressure, dealing with some difficult customers. If they can cope with that they will make great waiting staff. Well done to the manager Hannah I think). She did her very best to appease everyone. Sometimes you have to take a deep breath as a customer and realise these guys don’t always have an easy time.

"We started with the Alkaline Nachos (£10.95), which featured nachos topped with marinated baked quinoa, fried beans, cashew cream, guacamole, pineapple salsa, and pickled red cabbage. The dish was drizzled with smoked cashew cheese. They were delightful, sweeter than any nachos I had before, and had a nice tangy twist. Next, we tried the BBQ Tacos (£9.50), which included shredded carrot in an alkaline BBQ sauce served in a crispy corn shell filled with fried beans and guacamole, along with pineapple salsa and pickled red cabbage, accompanied by a side salad. These were hands down the best BBQ tacos I've had in the north. The Thai Buddy Bowl (£10.95) was another standout dish. It featured orange teriyaki chickpea tofu, surrounded by pineapple "fried" quinoa, purple coleslaw, a Thai side salad with almond and ginger dressing, and quinoa falafels with mango chutney. The blend of flavors was incredible, and this was my favorite dish—something I could happily eat several times a week. I plan to return just for this dish! We also tried the Thai Wrap (£9.95), which contained quinoa and drippy butter falafels wrapped in a soft tortilla with mango chutney, coleslaw, and kimchi—served with a Thai side salad, almond and ginger dressing, and pineapple quinoa. The combination of ingredients in this falafel wrap was unexpected but fantastic. Once again, it was sweeter than I had anticipated. For dessert, we enjoyed the Pink Pitaya Acai Bowl (£5.50), a fruity and smooth blend with celestial blueberries, bananas, kiwi, and coconut—perfect for breakfast! It was a real power breakfast. We paired our meal with Immunity Boost Juice (£4.00 each) made from strawberry, pear, apple, and lemon juice—it was refreshing and invigorating. The Tropical Sunrise Smoothie (£4.50) blended papaya, mango, orange, banana, coconut, maple, and cashew, maintaining the unique flavors of each fruit beautifully. Lastly, we had the Peanut Butter and Jelly Smoothie (£4.50), featuring strawberries, banana, peanut butter, maple syrup, and lemon balm. It might sound odd, but it worked perfectly— the earthy peanut butter provided a lovely texture and taste that complemented the sweetness of the fruit. Overall, it was a fantastic experience that was well worth the wait."

"Excellent food, lovely people, so relaxed. We first came years ago, visiting friends in Middlesborough (came from Bolton) and couldn’t find anywhere open to eat, then we followed our noses (and the heavenly scent of garlic) and found our favourite restaurant. We tell everyone...about it! Tonight we returned on our final night of a stay in Saltburn. We booked and travelled the min journey to eat at this gorgeous corner of Italy hidden away in the town. There weren’t many people in with it being mid-week but there was a steady stream of deliveries being collected (oh to live close enough for that and a gentleman eating at the bar. Really felt authentic. I love that this place has none of the pretentiousness you find in some places. The welcome is always warm, you never feel rushed, and nothing is too much if you have a question, ask it. You’ll feel like you’re chatting to old friends. The host (Rosetta) made us feel like the kitchen was cooking just for us and the waitress (who we remembered from last time too) was so warm and friendly. I had the antipasti starter wow! What an impressive collection of fresh flavours. See the pic! So simple but so tasty. My mum wolfed down the pâté with chunky rounds of gorgeous baguette toasts, and our friend had the potato skins. The waitress commented we had ordered good sharing options but we were each very protective of our plates! Mains came and they were equally as fantastic. I had the pizza Elianos Parma ham, rockette, Parmesan, fresh basil, and added olives. The crust looked thick at the edges but it was light, and thin beneath the toppings: just perfect. My mum loved her pasta dish with chicken in a spicy tomato sauce; there wasn’t much evidence there had been anything in the bowl when she was done! Our friend ordered the lasagne. Having sampled many, and judged whether she would return to a restaurant based on its quality, she is quite a critical diner. She loved it. The part she couldn’t manage, she boxed up and her daughter had eaten it within ten minutes of it crossing the threshold! We ended our evening with a chat with our host, smiling and content. We left with our tummies and our hearts satisfied. We can’t wait to come back!"
