• Steak • Belfast

Booked 11 times today

The clue is in the name....and for the juiciest, most flavorsome steaks around, no matter how you take it, it's hard to beat a Josper-cooked steak! The secret is our Josper grill, a very particular style of Spanish charcoal oven, which is regarded by chefs worldwide as the finest method of cooking super tender steaks, while locking in all those wonderful flavors. So whether it's Sirloin or Rib Eye you prefer, the unique smoky, barbecue-style taste of our locally sourced, prime aged steaks is, we believe, out of this world! If, however, steaks are not your thing, then fear not, as we also offer a wide-ranging & amp; varied menu and quick & easy Light Lunch menu.

Long thought to be the building where our entries namesake was held as a prisoner before being hung in Cornmaket, The Jailhouse as it is now known has been frozen in time for the last 70 years nearly forgotten about completely. Restored as part of the Joys Entry project, the aim was to keep as much of the original character of the building as possible. Brick walls, inscribed beams and original windows, take a closer look and see what history and tales you can find while you sip on tipples and nibble on rations. Time Served Well.

Pre theatre menu choices were good and the food we chose was all very well flavoured. Portion size of main was good but would have benefited from some sides being available especially vegetables. Dessert was exceptional - sticky toffee pudding. Not as busy as we expected on a show night but got very noisy when a table of 14 arrived!

This was our second time back and we were expecting something different from our last experience. When we arrived we were advised to go to the bar because our table wasn’t ready. There was a table ready to go that we could see from the bar, we were taken to the table 10 minutes after our booking time to that exact table. We where given menus promptly and we had our drink order taken quickly; it was a further 15 - 20 minutes before what seemed to be the floor manager came to take our food order and he had to double check if we had ordered drinks. Food was amazing no issues there and the cocktail I had was beautiful but the service was really slow today there seemed to be staff walking about with nothing to do. With so many staff on today I don’t understand why the service was so slow for this reason I asked for the service charge to be taken off the bill and no tip was left
