Our second visit to Oregano, some nice changes to the menu which was appreciated. To start I’d the seafood linguine which was very good, my wife had the Caesar salad which she loved, for the main course she had sea bass served on a bed of Spanish style bean & chorizo broth, I’d the rump of lamb cooked perfectly, PINK!!...

We found this to be a very pleasant restaurant and the staff were helpful and friendly without making too much of a fuss whilst we were eating. We had the pre-theatre meal. The food was of high quality and beautifully presented though the portions are not large. I would have liked my main course to have been warmer though this... More

Initial first impression was very poor. Once you have negotiated the potholes, you have to ring the doorbell to gain entry. Fine - if you can hear it ring and if someone answers! We were successful on our 3rd attempt but if we hadn't been meeting family we would have left. The decor and ambiance was fine but service was... More

Could not fault the quality of the food but was a little on the meagre side for me. Staff were both friendly & helpful and the surroundings in the restaurant are very pleasant. Driveway & car park are a bit of a pothole avoiding experience. If you are not driving a 4x4, go gently. More

If you want Michelin star food at a reasonable price then you cant go wrong with Oregano Restaurant in Newtownabbey. My husband and I ate here recently as a wedding anniversary treat and a treat it was! Staff are very friendly and attentive as soon as you enter but not over bearing. Loads of choice on the a la carte... More

Went here last night with my husband and two of our friends. Great experience from we arrived until we left. Atmosphere was lovely - it was really busy and there was a real buzz about the place. The staff were attentive without being intrusive. And the food was second to none. I had the best risotto ever for starter and... More

Had a lovely lunch here and food was outstanding. Have to say that I agree with other reviewers in that the portions are rather small for the main course. Kids can eat free when with a paying adult and the menu for children is not just the usual fish fingers and chips etc. Not offered a wine list at all... More
