Best Romantic Restaurants in Houghton-Le-Spring

Absaloutly lovely food was beautiful, im not a big eater so the portion sizes were just right for me , if you like huge portions then this isnt for you, im also very picky we dine out a lot and one thhing i cant abide is food chucked together looking a mess and no flavour,Vitos food is presented looking like it should like a work of art you can tell the chefs take pride in what they cook and tastes phenonemull, i love how you can see the kitchen and watch them making the food whilst you wait, my only gripe is the seating it feels like your encroaching other diners, your that close you hear every word everyone is saying so iit takes away from what should be a romantic setting which is a shame

Since its relaunch and service of only tasting menus, Six has become one of our very favourite restaurants - which is slightly odd because we usually avoid tasting menus. We had the nine-course menu, the alternatives being a six-course and vegetarian six and nine-course alternatives. One great thing is that, not being oyster-lovers, one can swap out a course that doesn't appeal for a veggie alternative. Service is attentive but without crowding, and friendly rather than stiffly formal, which we like. Every course was a masterpiece in taste and presentation, and we've eaten worse in Michelin-starred places at twice the price. Wine starts at under £30 a bottle, but you can push the boat out and pay far more. So not a cheap place but very good value, and with excellent waiting staff.

Lovely, friendly pub with grat food and drinks. Vegetarian/Vegan burger was the best!!!

We all had burgers and they were delicious! The only problem was they didn’t have a child’s menu.

Regular visitors here and it never disappoints. Food is amazing and the staff really helpful. Highly recommend the Beef Massamam curry and my wife always gets the Star of Siam special rice
