The Basement On Market St - Newcastle

The appetizer was good, but the pasta and pizza were disappointing. I would only consider returning for the appetizer. The average price per person is between A$80-100. The food was rated a 3, service a 2, and atmosphere a 4.

Food was delicious, that puffy bread with antipasto was amazing. On the negative side, one the toilet washbasins was leaking onto the floor making it look very unclean, so they need to get some maintenance done asap. Price per person: A$120–140 Food: 4 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 4

Very good and delicious food all served with a great a friendly service from all staff we dealt with. A very nice venue in a very pleasant atmosphere. Really enjoyed it and will certainly go back when visiting Newcastle again. Price per person: A$80–100 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

A little bit disappointed, we had a very small table near the kitchen, we couldn’t fit our meals. I booked the table a month before, nobody ask us if we were happy with the table here. We wanted to have our antipasti with our pizza, which we specified to the waitress but we got them 10 minutes apart. The food was okay. Price per person: A$40–60 Food: 3

The drinks were wonderful, but as an industry bartender and owner for the last 14 years, I can honestly say I don’t think I’ve seen a more miserable bartender. It really ruined our experience how irritated she was that we ordered a drink from her at 8:30 when they close at 9:30pm. The manager was lovely though. Super disappointed since we were super excited to try this place out. Service: 1
