It's serving homemade Italian foods and desserts.
It's a lovely atmosphere and outstanding food. The staff are warm, friendly and provide exceptional service. The team communicate with us through gestures and make sure that we understand each other as we are deaf. Very comfortable and warm its feel like we are in Italy!
The food was delicious, and we'll definitely be visiting again in the future.
If you're a fan of Italian food, you'll not be disappointed. Believe me, their foods - WOW!

I love this restaurant & am 100% happy to recommend it to family & friends!
Having visited many times there is always a warm welcome from the friendly staff especially Walter & Nathan.
A family run restaurant that offers amazing food at a very good price.
You would be mad not to give it a try......

came here on my own while waiting for a train, staff were incredible making sure I always had a drink or a fork in my hand! Great chat from everyone - going to a restaurant alone can be quite daunting but they made me feel very welcome! Food was beautiful, and Marcello at the bar made a wonderful espresso martini 😊 Will for sure be back if I'm in Newcastle again

You can’t go wrong eating at an Italian restaurant. I’m a pescatarian and always try the fish dishes when I eat out. The waiters at Pani’s Cafe were extremely accommodating as we were a large group. My prawn starter was adapted due to my allergies and so was my main course of sea bass. I can’t fault the food or the service. Absolutely lovely waiting staff and chefs. Definitely visit here again when I come back to Newcastle

Managed to get a table here and very pleased that we eventually came.
Staff were so helpful with the pram and baby changing facilities are on site.
Lovely food, including the garlic bread with cheese and the pasta.
Initially brought wrong wine over but changed with no hassle. Lovely time, good food, helpful staff, what more could you want!
S. R.
Just fantastic! The food is simply amazing and the staff are so warm and friendly, would definitely recommend! The "Cannolo Siciliano" is one of the nicest puddings I've ever had, worth the trip for this alone!
L. H.
absolutely amazing, cannot recommend Pani's highly enough. the food is FAN-FREAKING-TASTIC, the service, exceptional, bloody wonderful staff. looking forward to visiting again 💖💖💖
R. F.
Took a client for lunch here. Always risky when you don't know a place, but encouraged by the existing reviews. Needn't have worried, service was excellent and fast. Super fast, even during a busy lunch service. Quality was excellent also. Will visit again when I'm in the area.

Been here afore with friends from work, was on a visit back to Newcastle, as had to move away due to Covid.
Had the pan fried Chicken, was Amazing!! Full of flavour with herbs and spices, big portion, sizzling hot, washed down with a lovely glass of wine.
Great service, with very friendly staff.
Highly recommend this place, will definitely be back next visit 😀 👍
D. R.
Had a lovely meal with my wife and niece, first class service and very tasty food. It has an atmosphere that felt like it is a family business with a genuine care for the diners experience and quality of the food. Definitely with a visit when in the toon.
J. M.
Not often I would say that a reduced size steak would still be very big. Delicious food for our group of 8 early diners. Very prompt service. Vibrant city atmosphere.
C. A.
So firstly I should point out that that we neither knew where Pani's was nor that it existed, but have been bought a voucher for Christmas we finally booked up for last night & the first that I noticed from the outset is that reserving a table is a must to avoid disappointment as for the time we were there at least it remained busy, comfortably so though not so much that you weren't impeccably attended to, and it would be a shame if you missed out on this delightful culinary experience by not having booked your table - that should be review enough, but I will elaborate. Pani's was lovely all round, from the stripped back & pleasant interior with bespoke fixtures just enough of the beaten track to make you feel that you're away from all the commotion of the city, to the friendly welcoming staff & most importantly of course, the food. The food was just amazing, the 4 of us ate a selection of dishes from across the starter, main & desert menus.... and whilst my only note of ever so slight criticism might be the limited choice of dishes... it's clear to see from the quality produced that this is quaint rather than limited. What we ordered was all correct, well presented & very tasty - not one of the four us had anything other than satisfied contentment for everything we ate, thank you. The bill came to £171, which for what we ate & drank across the 4 of us (including an £18 bottle of wine) I would say was fair & averagely priced, but way more importantly that the cost was the value, which we definitely thought was worth it!....... Enjoy! 😉😋
L. R.
The food was amazing and the service was great. Loved it. Would definitely return.
J. B.
Decided to call in pre Arena gig for food,
Excellent atmosphere, very attentative friendly staff,
Food was excellent also,
Highly recommended 👍

My husband and I ate here tonight with my parents. First time we've been but we'll definitely be back, it was absolutely amay! So many more dishes I want to try, everything sounds/looks beautiful.
S. W.
My wife took me here for a celebratory meal after having it recommended by her boss. I cannot praise Panis enough for our lovely visit. First off, the service was outstanding. The young girl serving us was really pleasant and answered any questions we had. Secondly, the food. Oh my god, the food was amazing. It has to be up there with one of the tastiest meals I've ever had. Even the thought of the flavours are making my mouth water again. Third and finally the cost. I was expecting it to be a lot more expensive than it was,especially as its in Newcastle city centre. Will definitely recommend this place and will be going back.
C. M.
Visited on 12/5/22. The food was amazing. The staff were so friendly and helpful and the cheeseboard was the best I've had anywhere. Well worth a visit!
N. A.
Amazing service and food. It was my first time there and I will definitely be back with friends. The food is lovely and the atmosphere was wonderful.
N. S.
The owners (Robie and Walter Pani) are very good friends of mine and I was there on the opening day....many moons ago. Food is still great and the guys are magic...
Z. A.
It's my boyfriend's favorite Italian restaurant in Newcastle so I had high expectations and I was not disappointed at all. :) The Service was excellent, the waiter was friendly and welcoming. He helped me with the menue and made sure to answer all my questions. The food was scrumptious and the price was right.
To round it all up I had a really good Coffee. Definitely comparable with my favorite Italian restaurants in Berlin.
If I ever visit Newcastle again, I will come again.
Thanks alot!
B. S.
Very last minute decision but we were squeezed in. Beautiful food with options for gluten free, vegetarian and vegan. As always, popping in on a whim paid off!
P. R.
Lovely food as always, been visiting two or three times a year for over twenty years. Always a warm welcome, great food, and a wonderful atmosphere. 😁
L. 1.
Love this place for just a coffee, lunch or dinner. I go every time I’m in town more than once!! Great wine, coffee, food and biscotti!!
G. A.
Fabulous food, staff and service. Outstanding.
J. J.
Upon first glance this seems like a rather small restaurant, however once inside you realise how large and also how popular it is, not only with the locals but also with Italians.
The service, food and location (right in the centre of the city) were all excellent. The menu had a large range of authentic Sardinian dishes from pasta to various seafood and meat dishes.
The staff were all very helpful and friendly and most of them are Italian.
Would highly recommend and am interested in visiting again to try something different.
M. T.
Once again had a lovely Italian meal tonight. Good Value. Service and food excellant. Staff very helpful and friendly. Xxx
G. W.
Incredible food, great and friendly staff and a wonderful atmosphere. Highly recommended if you're in town for a bit or for a gathering with friends.
J. P.
Had such a lovely meal here with my daughter before the match. Really delicious pasta dish and sausage casserole. Great atmosphere. Our waiter was really friendly, had an eye for detail and professional service, and made us feel very welcome. Top notch! We will be back as soon as we can.
L. F.
Always a delicious and pleasant experience. The environment and ambiance is comfortable, and the staff are friendly, professional and welcoming. Love the place.
R.
Excellent food and really friendly staff. Always very accommodating.
J. M.
Just tried this place for the first time last night with my partner and I have to say the food and atmosphere was spot on! We're already looking forward to our next night at Pani's.
M. T.
Low key restaurant with amazing food!
C. S.
Our favourite place before a theatre trip.
Lovely little family run Italian in the centre of town. Foods delicious! Friendly staff and a great atmosphere. Personally recommend the Roberto’s Fregula 😋
It can get super busy on performance nights so book ahead but don’t worry service and food is speedy!
S. K.
Excellent service and quality of food is outstanding. Tastes like home cooked food
M. B.
This is a fabulous place to eat. The food is delicious. The service is fast. The prices are cheap. The decor has been updated in the last year which has modernised it and given it a rustic look.
This has got to be my favourite place to eat. Beats all the chain Italian places easily.
Finally tried a dessert as well as normally I can't finish my plate of food as the portions are fantastic but this day I was absolutely starving.
It's also has options for gluten and vegan diets.
My 8 year old daughter also loved the food and she's a picky eater so any place new she tries some of my food and sticks to what she knows. (They do great chips) the waitress was happy to provide an additional small plate to accommodate this.
H. A.
Wonderful as always. First time we've been back since covid and felt very safe and well looked after!
T. K.
Fabulous food and drinks. Great service. Menu is so different.
N. M.
Always great food and wine, lovely staff and relaxing atmosphere.
A. C.
Amazing as always. Feels so much more authentic, food-wise, than the majority of Italian restaurants. Wonderful service too. Recommend the Gavi white wine. Delicious.
S.
Excellent steak at a decent price. Staff are all to happy to help with accomodating us in the last ten minutes of their kitchen service. Top marks!
M. D.
Great pasta!! Innovative approach to Italian food, good selection of wine, obligatory cappuccino machine, impeccable service and lieu. If in doubt go for the specials of the day, the chef NEVER disappoints!
P. D.
Great food, especially the desserts! Went with a group of friends and we really enjoyed ourselves. The service was really good and very quick even tho it was busy, staff was nice and friendly.

G. N.
Great food, and lovely service. Only downside was no cask ale
D. B.
Made a booking on the spur of the moment whilst sitting in a pub a few yards away early evening on a Saturday in a busy Newcastle city centre. Excellent service, quality food and drink, very interesting venue being much bigger than it looks. Bill didn't include the wine but I drew this to their attention as I am not a thief and intend to eat there again! Very good dining experience!
J. K.
It's not just about the delicious food at Panis, the staff are so vital to the ambience and we always get a great welcome. You feel that there is time to have a chat with them, that nothing is rushed or just a job to them.
H. C.
Love this place, it's a Newcastle gem, the food is superb! Looking forward to coming back.
G. V.
Delicious Italian food, cozy atmosphere and very friendly staff. Would go again

G. S.
We found this place in Newcastle on a recce of the area and it was essentially just the sort of place we wanted to find. It has just the right ambience and eclecticism that suited our esoteric tastes.. Good service, nice cocktails and the food looked delicious but that's something we will definitely try next time we are in Newcastle..
j. e.
Really nice place tucked away along a side street off grey street. Fabulous menu.
L. H.
The best lunch/dinner in town. Traditional Sardinian flavours on the menu. Deserts to die for (often popped in for a coffee and pud!).
J. P.
Excellent food as always and lovely friendly staff
m. D.
Good food, good friendly service and nice wine. What's not to like? 3 meals, 2 desserts and all of them delicious.
J. M.
Proper Italian food from proper Italians, in the centre of Newcastle, what's not to like?
G. Y.
Lovely place. Had a nice lasagne when I caught up with friends recently.
S. M.
Our first trip to Pani's and what a delight!! Lovely staff, great cafe ambience, and wonderful food. I can thoroughly recommend this establishment. We will definitely be returning for more!! Well done 👍😁🥂

Fantastic as ever.
Gorgeous food and lovely, friendly staff.
Just love this place 💗
F. S.
Fantastic food, authentic Italian stuff.The Pani's bisque and ravioli starter is exceptional. Fairly priced. Food comes out reasonably quickly. Staff were pleasant and helpful, but often take a long time to serve you. Overall a great dining experience, with the food being the headliner - looking forward to return.
N. P.
Always amazing food. Only been a few times but it never disappoints.
S. R.
Great food, great wine and affordable prices

One of the first restaurants I've been to since lock down and it's amazing; great service and brilliant food!
G. M.
We had our wedding reception at Panis 7years ago and we thought it most appropriate to share our 7th anniversary there especially after the relaxing of lockdown. The food was as always exceptional and the staff superb.
S.
Loved their beautiful Cappuccino and their friendly Sicilian atmosphere
A. H.
My favourite Italian restaurant in Newcastle. The food is fantastic and the staff are all so friendly. Always enjoy my visits here.
J. L.
Went for lunch. The lasagne was good but meagre portion for the money. Staff kept hovering to remove bottles, plates etc. Felt rushed so we left after 45 mins.
V. F.
Loved everything about it, the pasta carbonara was superb, washed down with a tasty Italian red. Will definitely go back the next time we're in Newcastle!
L. D.
Went for cousins engagement last night, lovely atmosphere, good food, excellent service. My aunt mentioned not liking ice so they changed it and remembered all night when bringing her drink. Friendly staff, willing to accommodate, genuinely interested and cared whether you enjoyed meal.
A. B.
Booked for a quick lunch for four. Two pastas, a sausage casserole and a sandwich. All absolutely beautiful, the pennette with sausage off the specials menu was absolutely delicious. I’d been before, take my kids when they’re across from Italy, but my friends hadn’t. We all left extremely happy with the superb food and excellent, friendly service. Beautiful decor... oh and the peroni riserva... buonissima!!!
J. P.
Very accommodating, excellent food, good atmosphere.
S. F.
Went for cousins engagement last night, lovely atmosphere, good food, excellent service. My aunt mentioned not liking ice so they changed it and remembered all night when bringing her drink.

We went to Panis on Thursday evening without a reservation we didn't wait long until we were seated ,this was our 1st meal out during this pandemic, it exceed our expectations from the food, wine and above all the fabulous staff everything was top class I urge you to make a reservation so you won't be disappointed .Thankyou Panis we will be back ❤
A.
A top quality restaurant, that serves Italian food, but with a strong Sardinian influence. This means that there are many dishes that you won't find in a regular Italian and I found the food to be superb. The prices are decent and very good value for the quality of the food. The staff are friendly and attentive, without being pushy and the service was really quick, despite the restaurant being very busy. There is a very good amount of choice on the menu and they have additional daily specials too. An excellent restaurant, which I thoroughly recommend.
E. P.
Good service, tasty food, good selection of Italian wine.
M. B.
Great pasta! No pizza though. But who needs pizza when your pasta is so good?
K. B.
Great food, drinks and atmosphere. Pani's never disappoint. Giev it a try, lunch, pre drinks for theatre, early evening meal. Enjoy
M. W.
I have been going to Pani's for 14 years and it never disappoints. Amazing food and great service. The specials are wonderful. My favourite restaurant in town.
S. P.
The best Italian/Sardinian food in Newcastle. Every time I go home I go here and the standards have never dropped over the 12 years I've been going. The panis bruschetta and capesante are highly recommended.
J. L.
Had a nice lunch with some friends this weekend. Food was really reasonable and good size. It wasn't freshly made, but was commensurate with the price. Would go again, perhaps trying dinner. Was very busy - and really hard to get service (couldn't get a second drink), and struggled to get the bill. It is definitely a nice place to pop into for lunch.
I. U.
Sardinian cuisine (Which is Italian, without the pizza) they'll never forgive me for saying that....
Great staff, family run, excellent atmosphere, just perfect...
A. D.
Great service. Fresh and authentic food. Must visit this lovely restaurant. A worthwhile experience. The people who work here smile and make your stay an absolute pleasure
B. D.
Delicious Italian food in a bustling atmosphere. Can get VERY busy, so be prepared to wait. For me it is always well worth it on account of friendly yet professional staff, an irresistibly authentic Italian atmosphere and simply very good quality food and service. Great coffee, too. Easily my favourite café in Newcastle.
D. P.
Always been a firm favourite and the staff are amazing. On today's visit my son wanted pepperoni pizza. Now they don't have pizza on the menu but they went and made one especially for him. Food was delicious as always. It is a brilliant place. Could not recommend more highly.
F. R.
Previous review said "Great Italian"
After revisiting more recently though the room has been made more comfortable, less old style Italian, and instead comfortable booths. The waiting staff seemed to have very fixed roles. Tricky to get served initially. Espresso Martini was super sweet. The quality did not seem quite as good as it was.
A.
Amazing and criminally underrated place. The staff are lovely and friendly, the food is incredible, and the speed they prepare it is amazing. Would highly recommend going, especially if you want a hot chocolate (spoiler: they're incredible)
J. O.
This is a fabulous authentic Italian restaurant. They don't do pizza but the food is fantastic. Its staff are amazing, friendly, helpful and efficient. You can spend time there practicing your Italian or grab a quick meal before the theatre. It's great for lunches and evening meals. Very family orientated children are very welcome. It's got a bussley happy atmosphere, it's open every day except Sunday.
Love it.
T. G.
Good atmosphere, comfortable with good service and an interesting and varied take on an Italian menu.

Great food and drinks in a lovely cosy environment. Fantastic staff.
N. R.
Great food, great service nice atmosphere
E. J.
Quite possibly my all time favourite restaurant in Newcastle! I’ve been coming here for well over ten years and watched how it’s grown over time - it may have got bigger but the quality of the food, the tentative staff, customer service is impeccable.
Perfect for any occasion - get yourself down for a authentic Sicilian pasta 🍝 and the fish soup to start - Amazing flavour.
w. k.
Wonderful choice of food and wines,excellent waiters . So glad we ate here👍😎
M. G.
I've been visiting this restaurant for over 15 years now and it always, always delivers. Absolutely outstanding food, wine and service. Have recommended to friends, family and will continue to do so! An absolute must!
j. n.
Wonderful food . . great service ! Vibrant restaurant and really worth booking. We will return again and again. Table for 6 and everything was superb. I cannot recommend this restaurant highly enough. Well done the manager Kiko ! Thank you all the staff !
J. Y.
nice atmosphere, great service, good food
D. M.
If you're in newcastle there is no other place that comes close for authentic Sardinian cuisine
S. D.
Highly recommended. Excellent authentic Italian food and friendly and helpful service as well. Perfetto!!
N. E. S.
Food was delicious and coffee was excellent 👌
C. S.
Little Sardinian gem!!! Been coming here with my family since I was a toddler and still come frequently with my partner, and I don’t think that I have never been disappointed with a single visit in the past 24 years. Service always quick and friendly, food always arrives promptly and is always delicious. Brilliant for quick work lunches or pre-theatre food. And perfect for lunch / dinner with friends / family!
N. J.
A real hidden gem in the centre of Newcastle. I've been coming here for years and have never been disappointed. Excellent pasta and meat dishes. They don't serve pizza but don't let that put you off. Smoke seating induce with plenty of room for groups. Very reasonably priced. Friendly staff. No easy parking nearby.
A. H.
Wow, just WOW! This has always been one of my favourite eating places in Newcastle.
The food is stunning, simple food done exceptionally well, the staff are lovely and the chic ambience is relaxing and comfortable.
Never a dissapointing place I thoroughly recommend a visit.
K. M.
Great food and service excellent.
S. T.
Delightful Italian restaurant. Menu is authentic and uncomplicated and the staff are friendly and efficient. The dining room has a post industrial feel while being airy and contemporary. The food was well presented, tasty and moreish.
M. M.
Great food at a great price
A. M.
The Farmhouse sharing platter to start is well worth choosing if there is two to share. A good blend of Italian cured meats and cheeses with fresh bread. Not too much prior to a main. The Bistecca Porcini was very good. Some vegetables as an option rather than just salad or chips would have been welcome but that's being too critical. Pani's staff as always in great form. Go here.
P. F. B.
We love this restaurant. We (Kirk and I!!) have been many times and have never been disappointed. The staff are genuine, knowledgeable and welcoming. The food is always first class, beautifully presented but not faffy. Amazing vfm too. We were here last night again, and hope to be there again in a fortnight when we're back in Newcastle.
H.
Friendly staff, good sized portions, lots of gluten free options.
Don't go if you want pretentious Italian or pizza, it's not fancy but it is fab.
Do go if you like the bustle of a cafe, the friendliness and good food at a great price.
P. P.
A rare suprise today and a rare gem in a world of fairly average Italian restaurants. Had a fabulous lunch with my son and the food was - well...it was bloody excellent actually and I would highly recommend Pani’s. We have tried several other Italians in Newcastle previously and this is the best meal we have had.
S. A.
Amazing food for a surprisingly affordable price. The restaurant is family run and has a truly authentic feel. Whilst slightly hidden the restaurant is in the heart of the city and is the perfect location for a meal before seeing a play at the Theatre Royal.
F. M. A.
Nothing matches Pani’s. The food is amazing and takes hardly any time to come to the table. This combined with the genuine family atmosphere makes Pani’s my favourite place to eat.
S. J.
I've been going here for years and I've never had a bad experience here, always gorgeous food, very friendly and welcoming and good prices. it's a lovely atmosphere inside, very sociable. I always recommend it to people and they always love it too. Once you try it will become your favourite place too 🙂
R.
OMG!!! So, my mate Peanut speaks Italian, so I thought we'd give this place a try, soley on that basis I wasn't expecting much, you know, pizza, spaghetti, pasta... Well, what a great menu, pizza isn't even on the menu! I don't eat meat, and there was a brilliant choice for me. I had the stew and Peanut had the aubergine pasta off the specials. Its an amazing little restaurant. Highly recommended!
I. S.
My family and I have been going to Pannis since 1995 when it opened. It has never failed to please. Typical warm and welcoming staff that you expect from an Italian restaurant. The food is high end Italian, but with the added ingredient of Sardinia. There is no pizza on the menu!! Thats got to be applauded. We love this place!
J. R.
Fantastic food and service at a very reasonable price.
J. K. S.
Beautiful food, generous portions, a lovely relaxed meal. We had all three of the bruchetta starters plus some olives between the four of us, we all commented on how nice everything was and each starter was big enough to split into four and still seem like you were getting a decent mouthful. The mains were great too, thick slabs of lasagne, bowls of steaming pasta with great flavour combinations and a creamy cheesy chicken dish that nearly had me liking the plate, the sauce was that good. The desserts were a revelation, I had a pistachio souffle with hazelnut ice cream which was probably one of the best desserts I've ever had, magnificent. We will return without doubt.
k. a.
Amazing food and very friendly staff
P. L.
This is a great little place, if a little tricky to find for those of us who don't know Newcastle. It's located on what feels like a narrow back street (not a "high bridge" as the road name implies) and on arrival it feels small. Once inside though you drop down a couple of steps and the main room of the restaurant is in a cellar of sorts located to the rear, and has lots of tables.
Staff are friendly and helpful, and the menu has plenty of choice. There are lots of unusual dishes here. For starters I opted for Pani's Bruschetta, which unlike other bruschettas I've had elsewhere was actually bread with olive paste, sun-dried tomatoes, and cheese on top, and was delicious. For my main course I chose the culurgiones, which were pasta parcels filled with cheese, potato, mint and garlic, in a tomato and basil sauce. I've never seen these before and they were lovely.
A really enjoyable meal, and I'll definitely return when I'm next in Newcastle.
J. A.
Simply the best Italian food in Newcastle bar none... Anywhere. Been going here for years and always a warm welcome. On first name basis with a lot of the staff who always spend time to catch up when we're in however busy they are. For that authentic Italian experience, it doesn't come much better than this!
s. W.
Brilliant service and nice food. I would definitely recommend going.
D. W.
In my opinion the best Italian's in Newcastle. The staff are always cheerful and helpful. The place has a nice friendly relaxed atmosphere. I have dined at Panis quite a lot and always found the food outstanding and value for money. I would highly recommend Panis to anyone who loves Italian food or anyone who just loves food for that matter.
A. G.
Pani's cafe is the place where we found authentic Italian food with decent service time and quality.
Place is always full, so mind sometime waiting for the order.
You can enjoy original italian wine, pizza , pasta and then in the last amazing desserts.
Ice cream in the desert was really good and we were 5 people and ordered wine, starters and main course which costs us around 140pounds..
T. G.
Superb service, great menus, giant cocktails, it has to be 5stars, oh and the ambiance is great.
L. H.
Been coming here for years.
Great food and coffee, lovely decor and friendly staff.
C. P.
Excellent food and wine but thought it a bit too pricy for the wine. Friendly staff and Covid safe.
J. G.
Fantastic. The best place to eat in Newcastle. Wonderful food, great atmosphere and lovely staff.
A. R.
For a proper, authentic Italian experience you can't get better. The fact that this place is ALWAYS packed out speaks volumes. If you like cheese and carbs, and great craic with the waiters, you will love this place. Looks a bit naff inside but the best Italians always do! Better for lunch than dinner perhaps, but whenever you go it'll be lively.
A. O.
Been coming to this wonderful place for over 15 years.
Has never faltered and always delivers outstanding food and impeccable service despite it being busy at all times!
Great place at any time of day or year!
D. M.
What can be said that hasn't already been said about Panis. One of the finest examples of a family run, friendly restaurant around. The food is consistently good. The atmosphere consistently lively. The staff consistently smiley. It's consistently busy, though getting a table never takes too long. Highly recommended.
M. F.
Loved this place. Very busy, but excellent service. Lovely food.
S. N.
We had a really lovely lunch...perfect for family lunch before the panto at Theatre Royal. They open at 11am...we went at 11.45 with 3 adults and three children and the.menu is perfect .... something for everyone at whatever level.... Very friendly and helpful staff. We shall defo return.

Pani's is a legendary Newcastle Italian pasta restaurant (no pizzas). Such a homely, friendly, welcoming place. Staff are Italian and I have been visiting here for years. The food is always speedily delivered and delicious. I always go for a Bruschetta Con Crudo and Pani's Penne which has a distinct Pani's tomato base for the sauce which is incredible. The dessert options are truly amazing also. I rate Pani's as No 1 pasta restaurant in Newcastle. It is always very busy, I recommend you go early than peak time.
S. C.
Amazing service and amazing food! It's the place to go in Newcastle for an authentic Italian experience.
C. A.
Fantastic food, reasonably priced and well staffed. Service was excellent. Never fails to impress.
D. E.
Nice friendly place with authentic food
S. B.
Went for a Christmas work meal here recently and had a geat time.
I would say the food was extremely well cooked and very homely, not a modern Italian, but it tasted amazing so no complaints there.
Extremely good value and great service.
P. G.
Lovely food and incredibly quick service! They have a lovely range of Sardinian dishes. I had the chicken caesar which was very filling and a generous portion. Will definitely be back 😊
R. T.
This met all of my sardinian food needs
A. V.
A family owned restaurant which offers some authentic Italian dishes. Big portions, friendly and attentive service, nothing too fancy, but persistently good quality food.
I'd say here you'd find a very good 'quality vs price' ratio. Recommended!
J. O.
Very good. Great food for the money. Great service - everyone very attentive and pleasant - loved that the staff are Italian and it's owned by an Italian family. Will definitely be back.
M. M.
The best mid ranged food in Newcastle. Family ran, top quality and no pizza!
d. m.
Lovely atmosphere and service, my main course veg lasagne was a bit textureless and tasted a bit like it was prepped earlier then frozen and microwaved, but I'm just guessing. Maybe stick to the specials, they may be fresher.
M. S.
Excellent food, pleasant ambience, reasonably priced.
And remains as good now.
C. P.
Pani's now offering their wonderful food for collection. Only 3 people allowed in the restaurant at any one time, 2 metres apart, and one way system for entry and exit. Food absolutely fantastic as usual.
A. P.
Great atmosphere, food and staff
M. T.
Great place friendly service and a warm feel to it I would highly recommended it to anyone who wants lovely food and Italian friends. I am now speaking as a friend of the review write who has gone to panis restaurant since since I have been a babe ,if I could I would go every day ,lovely warming staff with a family feel cheap enough, quick service and excellent food, simply the best my favourite place in the world if it was an option I would rate it infinity
M. B.
My absolute favourite location in Newcastle for a beautiful coffee and some delicious and authentic Italian food with a Sardianian twist! Love the staff and having a natter in Italian with them!
P. “. C.
Panis has been a favourite Italian restaurant for many years but if you have not been recently do revisit. The same individual welcome, prompt service and good food. However the old decor has been replaced by subtle contemporary style and comfortable seating. You might need to book now days.
O. H.
What a brilliant find. We went looking for some Italian food the night before the great North run. These guys squeezed us in without a reservation, fantastic food, good service, nice relaxed atmosphere and almost too cheap. Definitely be back.
D. S.
Just love Pani's. Such a great atmosphere, the food is good and the service is brilliant.
Always busy, because people come back time after time.
If you want somewhere to go and are short of time, or you just want a place full of atmosphere, this is the place.
Highly recommended
M. W.
I have been going to this restaurant for a very long time and I have always enjoyed. It has now been decorated and it is wonderful with friendly staff and great food. Maureen.

E. B.
Excellent all round. Great service. Delicious food. Cool ambiance. Came with our adult grandson today. Thank you.
G. M.
This is THE best restaurant in Newcastle, an Italian that doesn't do pizza ? For a very good reason. You don't need it, the menu is great.
Authentic and not a "chain" try it ......
S. Y.
Great food especially the Garlic Bread oh my days... been to Florence, Rome and Venice many times yet this garlic bread hits the spot! Soft and airy yet slightly crisp! Unfortunately the fregola doesn't go well with me... too chewy and small like boba..
S. C.
Great Sardinian food - give it a go.
A. B.
Altogether good but they have lost the really nice lunchtime sandwiches.
D. W.
Always a pleasure to eat here. Service consistently very good.
A. W.
Very good food and it was a quick turn around, ideal for us when in the city. They don't rush you if you do want to stay longer and have a drink you can do. Best of both
A.
Top class pasta dishes. I had the special of Agnolotti which was superb and the house style bruschetta starter is unusual and tasty. Even Monday night was popular, so worth phoning to book a table to avoid a wait.
N. P.
Proper Italian food served by proper Italians. Go. You won't regret it. Very fast, not pricey, perfect for refuelling at lunch time. Don't tell everyone or you won't get a table
C. R.
Had a meal there last week,best meal ever and the staff were great!😏
J. H.
I turned up without a reservation on a sat evening and they squeezed me in. I had a fregola pasta special with shedded duck legs, absolutely delicious. I'll be returning to try other things on the menu
H.
Cozy place with a great warm service. The food is amazingly tasty and truly Italian. There is a variety of classic Italian food and beverages. A bit ouchy on the prices but it's worth it partly.
R. A.
Love this restaurant. Have a meal there most times we visit Newcastle. Great food and excellent service. Look forward to the next time.
