The Jingling Gate - Newcastle upon Tyne

I saw amazing photos of the food on social media and decided to try it out. The presentation was beautiful, but unfortunately the taste did not live up to expectations. The prawns were overcooked, the "duck pancakes" did not taste like duck (although the salad was fresh), and the spring rolls were greasy. It seemed like the food was cheap frozen party food. I was very disappointed. There were only a few vegetarian options. There were also not many alcohol-free options (just two or soda). The atmosphere was strange, and it seemed like the locals were unsure of the new clientele. The staff were not very friendly. I was really looking forward to trying this place, but I was let down.

I recently had Sunday lunch at this restaurant on a friend's recommendation, and it was fabulous.

The food was terrible, flavorless, and barely warm. It was inedible and when we complained, the response was very poor. The staff seemed like complete amateurs.

Watched bon geordie last night had not been to the weatsheif for a long time really enjoyed it thank you!!

When we went last week during a time it should have been open we couldn't find a way in. If anyone could point this out I'd be grateful.
