Restaurants près de Stadium of Light

Arrived around 5 mins early for booking, place was quiet (booking 5.30pm) but able to choose a table, couple of other tables occupied. Temperature good, music level suitable. Love the decor. Server came straight over for drinks orders (server asked if I wanted to wait till boyfriend was back from loo but I was happy to order drinks). Food order not long after, we both wanted well done, me 10oz sirloin, he got well done fillet with a side of red onion rings. Nice ambiance, food arrived, everything hot and tasty, was very impressed. Only thing I'd say, I got the garlic, white wine and parsley sauce, it was watery but that's probably due to the wine, tasted lovely, I just like thicker sauce, boyfriends Diane was amazing! I got sticky toffee pudding also fab, with the 20% running in jan with food and drinks each (bottle of peroni, non alcoholic old mout) it came to just over £60. Good value. Took a little time to get servers attention for Bill,but no major issue. I'd definately go back

Amazing food and great service, will be definitely returning

The Engine Room was a first class venue: food and drink were excellent. The staff were outstanding. The waiting team were ready with a prompt bill and transferred the rest of our bottle of wine into plastic glasses so we could take them into the concert hall. Brilliant! Sunderland is not only a Music City but a fabulous food city! 👍

Exceptional food and excellent service, will certainly come back here. Only slight downside was that we were seated in the conservatory area (our choice, in fairness to them, we didn’t realise what the temperature would be like in there) which was boiling hot even in January. Maybe a canopy outside needed to keep the direct sun off the windows or some way to increase ventilation? But otherwise cannot fault it, this restaurant is an absolute gem

Absolutely love this place, atmosphere and food were fantastic! Biggest shout out to our server Victoria who was absolutely amazing all night, honestly the most lovely person with fantastic service and a smile all night!
