The Red Lion - Piatti

Was taken with my family for my birthday the food was delicious and service fantastic from all the friendly staff, will definitely go again

Best Sunday Luch in Sunderland, food was amazing, served hot, fresh to order, fab range of veg available, biggest yorkshire pudding's i've ever seen! staff were attentive, friendly, prompt taking bringing order

Very impressed by The Red Lion, both the food and service were absolutely excellent, and nothing was too much to ask. It has a traditional cozy pub vibe and friendly, welcoming staff. Will 100% be visiting again! Visualizza piatti

Poor service,Food over priced and tasteless.We waited at least 30 mins for drinks and then another 30 mins to order food.We ordered food another 30 mins when it arrived.The bill was wrong over charged for food.Will on return.2 stars is being generous.

I visited the Red Lion with a group of friends to celebrate Christmas and we had a fabulous time from start to finish food was amazing, we all ordered from the Christmas Fayre menu and the starters and mains were perfect! The staff couldn’t have been any more attentive! 10/10 would definitely recommend!

The interior of this restaurant pub is lovely and cosy, the food was great with plenty of choice from traditional home cooked pub food to healthier and more elevated dishes. I had sea bass which was tasty and well cooked. Starters and puddings also didn’t disappoint. Service was excellent staff attentive and friendly. There’s quite a wait between courses but this I don’t mind it means it’s cooked fresh and gives you time to chat and for food to settle ! Visualizza piatti

I haven’t eaten here in a while but had previously had a good experience. Last night we were sat at the table at 6pm, informed there would be a 15 minute wait before the order was taken, we ordered around 6:15, the waiter said the Kiev takes 35 minutes to cook so would we like a starter? We chose potato skins which were nice, our mains arrived at 7pm, mine was a chicken breast with stir fry veg, rice and a Thai green curry sauce there wasn’t enough veg it looked like a frozen portion and the chicken breast was very small, my husbands Kiev was just a Kiev and chips on the plate no garnish etc … we just got to the cinema as the movie was starting despite leaving plenty time. Our waiter was fri...

So this was our first time visiting this restaurant after hearing some positive feedback from friends. I have to say I am disappointed. Sat at our table to be told there may be a wait for food as there was 2 “big” tables in before us was the first nod that things might not be up to scratch. Sat for 35 minutes before they took our order. 1 of us went to order steak, told there was no steak left at all. I asked what else you got with the chicken and giant Yorkshire to be told that they only had the lamb dinner in large Yorkie pud. I chose the corned beef pie with mash, our friend who wanted the steak chose the “lamb dinner in Yorkshire pud when it arrived it was a chicken breast! Seems they do... Visualizza piatti
