Wonderful experience. Fabulous service, setting and food. No complaints. The toilets could do with being a little warmer perhaps though!

Easily the best dining experience in Newcastle. This is a gem of a place which is a must for dining. There is a set menu for those on a budget which is outstanding quality and choice. Or if you are in the mood for more the a la carte is a great option. The selection of dishes are seasonally based and cater for all diets - you will not be disappointed. Service and ambience are a delight and as soon as you walk in you are made to feel welcome and important. We are not from Newcastle but every time we visit (this is now our third dining experience) we make a point of going here and will definitely return.

Adore this restaurant. We have been 3 times now, we live down in London, or else it would be so much more regular. Ted, one of the servers, remembered us (it’s been almost a year) and was so wonderful throughout the evening. Super attentive, positive and professional. So was T with our bookings. In fact all the staff are lovely and have been there since we first started coming, says a lot about the management. Food is divine, quintessentially French and tastes delicious. The Duck and Beef Bourguignon are my favorite! The music is French, which makes a huge boost to the ambiance and authenticity. If you asked me to name a negative….all it would be is that it is located too far from us to be able to be regulars. Highly recommend The French Quarter any day of the week!
