“Some of the best food I’ve had in my life! The bread and butter, specifically the brown bread was delicious as were the fried artichokes and tomato panzanella. The star of the show was the lamb shoulder with risotto- outstanding. I wish I lived in Belfast, I would come here regularly.”

“My partner and l went there to celebrate our anniversary yesterday evening. From the moment we arrived to the moment we left the service was 5 star. Very friendly staff,special mention to the lady that was not in uniform,you brightened up the place. Now for the food..we ordered snacks,starter mains and dessert and l cannot rave enough about everything. Everything gets a 5 star(except for my mains 4star). Very flavourful and tasty.Our favourite parts were the appetisers and desserts but honestly everything came together so well,absolutely delicious.Kudos again to the very friendly and customer aware staff l will say my pina colada was a bit stronger that lm used to so l had to have loads of water coz lm a light weight.Otherwise we cant wait to go back.
