Salparo Greek Restaurant is a family-run Greek venue at 35 Side in Newcastle upon Tyne, close to the Castle and Quayside. The intimate dining room focuses on warm hospitality and the sociable style of eating associated with a traditional meze meal.
Meze is designed to be shared, with the restaurant suggesting a selection of several dishes for a couple rather than one plate per person. Cold dips, salads and vegetable preparations can be combined with warm dishes to create a meal with varied flavours and textures.
Seafood and meat choices extend the spread, with grilled and seasoned dishes reflecting familiar Greek and Mediterranean cooking. The flexible format allows a table to mix vegetarian plates with fish or meat, or to build an entirely meat-free selection from the available dishes.
Greek wine, coffee and desserts provide a fitting finish and encourage diners to take their time over the meal. The sharing style works especially well for couples and small groups, while guests with allergies should discuss ingredients such as dairy, sesame, gluten, nuts and shellfish with the restaurant before ordering.
Address: 35 Side, Newcastle upon Tyne NE1 3JE, England
