“What a fantastic find on Front Street. The food was absolutely delicious and packed with vibrant, fresh flavours. I loved how beautifully everything was presented on the plates. …”

“Geisha in Benton has been consistently the best Asian takeaway and restaurant in Newcastle. Every time we visit, we are blown away by the food and can never get enough of it. Geisha Asia has some of the best pan Asian dishes from staples such as a banging salt and chilli chicken, to their spectacular satay sauce, to incredible sizzling plates. Their ramen, meats and burgers are consistently delicious. You can’t go wrong here. Even better, they offer Geisha at Home (aka takeaway), where they do the best value and tasting ‘Geisha Box’ (munch box). We have enjoyed this practically weekly and it has not let us down as single time! Given the high standards of food, it’s not surprise their specialty cocktails are to die for - especially the Mango Mai Thai!! The decor is to a high standard and whilst always busy, the staff are excellent and attentive. Myself and my partner absolutely love it here and we can’t wait to go back again! Would recommend 10/10”

“Visited for our anniversary, was extremely busy with being a Saturday, but staff made sure you were not forgotten about. Food was fantastic and cocktails were delicious. Was so much food we took home a huge portion of noodles.”

“Love this restaurant. The interior looks amazing, lunch time is quiet, so very nice for me and my friend have good chatting. We have two set of “daytime specials” (£15 each set) with a portion of chips and 2 drinks, it was very delicious and quite big for us(we can’t finish all). Very recommended.”
- Laura Peterson
“Staff were very friendly. Food was really good quality though there could do with being a few more vegan options. I loved the decor but the music didn't fit the vibe in my opinion. Overall I really enjoyed it there, would recommend and would go back.”
