  “Had fantastic dinner on Tuesday evening. We we're bit worried we were too late to find anywhere to eat but the staff were lovely and service prompt. My husband loved the risotto. Restuarant is gorgeous.”

  “Quick but friendly service! The carbonara was rich, creamy and cheesy, and the pancetta was great! I also got the rose garden spritz zero cocktail, which was sweet but not overwhelmingly so, bubbly, and flavorful! I enjoyed it a lot. The nduja dough balls were quite greasy, but very flavorful. The dough was thick, and they were topped with melted cheese. Served with what seemed to be spinach pesto, which was very good! I wouldn't call it authentic Italian, but it definitely has its own charm.”

  “Had a lovely meal at 3.30pm approx today with my granddaughters. Kids Menu is excellent value. Decor & background music was very authentic, music being a mixture of Italian & French. Because of the time between lunch & dinner, it was quiet so would love to visit in the evening time which I will do on next visit to Belfast to see what the atmosphere is like.”

  “Tried a beautiful mix of flavors here and the overall experience was really satisfying. The starters especially stood out with rich flavors and great texture combinations. Desserts ended the meal on a perfect note. Definitely a place worth visiting for Italian food lovers. Our palate enjoyed the following dishes: 🍤 Garlic Prawn Bruschetta: Fresh, flavorful and perfectly balanced with crispy bread and juicy prawns. A very good starter to begin the meal. 🍄‍🟫 Truffle Mushroom: Absolutely the star of the table. Rich truffle aroma, creamy texture and deep mushroom flavor made this dish unforgettable. Highly recommended. 🧆 Lasagne Bites: Crispy outside, soft and cheesy inside. Full of flavor and perfectly mouth melting. 🍕Pollo Carne Pizza: Loaded with toppings, good balance of meat and cheese, and a nicely baked crust. Very satisfying in taste. 🍰Tiramisu: Soft, creamy and perfectly balanced sweetness with coffee flavor. A classic dessert done really well. Mru’s Rating: 9.5/10 ⭐ Strongly recommended for their truffle mushroom and tiramisu especially.”

  “Lovely little Italian restaurant with great decor/setting. Food was delicious and the service was great. We clearly went during a downtime so were seated and served quickly. It's a cute little establishment.”

  “The second we walked in felt so welcomed it was unreal! The staff was very friendly and checked on us just enough times and not felt pressured or like they constantly nagging us. Didn't have to wait too long for food and when it came it was so good I would be happy to wait even 10 hours ( lol ) the decor is pretty and the whole place was very clean. Oh and last, the music. When we left we were so relaxed it almost felt like we spent some time in spa. I can't remember when is the last time I felt so relaxed and not overwhelmed when coming out of a restaurant as most of them the music is just too much while at The Chubby Cherub we had a lovely conversations during the meal without having to say " WHAAAAT" 20 thousand times”

  “Staff will happily turn you away, even when the website shows tables available. We asked for a table for two, and were told the restaurant was fully booked despite the booking page showing open slots. After highlighting this to the staff member, she went to “check with her colleague”, and moments later the booking system was taken offline. Fortunately, I had the foresight to book it a few seconds before she came back. When the staff member returned to repeat the lie, I showed her my booking confirmation. Visibly frustrated, she reluctantly went back again to "double check". Lo and behold, our table was miraculously found! To be fair, the food and atmosphere were both excellent and the chefs clearly know what they are doing. Once seated, the service was attentive and pleasant. Overall it's well worth a visit. Just make sure to book online first, as the staff seemingly prefer empty tables to paying customers.”

  “Beautiful restaurant with a very nice atmosphere, bit is definitely very busy on a Saturday evening so would say that booking is essential. Nice and friendly staff but they were definitely very busy. Staff were all friendly however there appred to be some confusion when being asked about which of the food could be made gluten free. Was a good amount of options that could beade gluten free and was informed that all of their pizzas could be made with a gluten free base and was able to get a side of garlic bread with my main. Not many options for the dessert of gluten free only the gelato and the sorbet Food was absolutely was delicious and would would definitely recommend for the taste and cocktails were well made as well.”

  “Lovely experience incredible staff, the atmosphere is incredible and just so beautiful. It's a really cosy feeling and you are almost transported out of Belfast the minute you sit down. Food was above and beyond good, I had carbonara and my friend had a vegan pizza plus a hummus to share, it was far too much but we would go back again. Bit in the higher price side for drinks but they are so tasty, top place to try!”
