The Looking Glass - Sunderland

We booked a table prior to an Ed Sheeran concert, and the table was reserved no problem. Then our experience went down hill from there: totally appreciate how busy it was but there was no organisation or communication at all. We qued at the bar for drinks, and he told us he was making big table orders so we sat down and asked someone to come over for our drinks order then as people qued at the bar they served all them first, we waited around 30 mins for the drinks to be made after asking if they had received the order. We then ordered food which we waited over 50 minutes for (the food was fine and so was the meats/cheese board), but the young lad got the order wrong and the food came at different stages which wasn’t ideal.. we were given no cutlery, no one asked if everything was ok with our meal. Absolute chaos to say the least and it unfortunately put a dampener on all our evenings. Certainly wouldn’t return staff need customer service training and there needs to be someone clearly in charge.

Fantastic Restaurant/Bar with quality meals with generous portions and brilliant staff. So friendly. Highly Recommended.

Fast becoming one of my favourite places to eat in Sunderland, good food, nice staff eager to help (as I never book, well worth a try

Went in for Sunday dinner, lovely food and a great looking place, has the potential to be a fantastic place to go, however the service was slow , only one behind the bar and one waitress, ,,,,, we then just wanted ice cream for our dessert but was told we could only have it with cake or pudding, waited nearly half an hour only to be told there was only enough carrot cake for one serving, not impressed, and you should be able to get just ice cream, if that’s all you want,,, Having said that I would definitely go again.
