A brand new Italian eatery has opened along the County Durham seafront - take a look inside and look at the menu here.

Valentino's Italian Restaurant on North Railway Street in Seaham finally opened its doors last week (June 8) following a three-month renovation and its now set to serve up Italian delights to hungry customers.

Owner Delshad Pour, 37, is at the helm of the new venture and has over twenty years of kitchen experience.

He says business so far has been excellent as they hope the influx of positive feedback will continue.

Delshad added: "Since we have re-opened we have been very busy. Lots of people have been coming in - we are really happy."

Much of the team working at the restaurant used to work at Martino's which formerly occupied the site.

Pictures show the inside of the restaurant with its new look and sprawling menu which includes pasta, pizza, risotto, fish, burgers and loaded fries to name a few.
