My partner and I visited at lunchtime and enjoyed a beautiful meal that was tasty and well- presented. The ambience was warm and comfortable with a good level of background noise, music and chatter- you didn’t have to shout to hear yourself heard and you could speak without everyone listening in! The decor is opulent but not overwhelming. The staff were professional, welcoming and friendly- they are a credit to the place.

We had another great experience at Lagan. The food was excellent and all staff were super friendly. Following a take-away a couple of weeks before (the best take-away we have ever had!) we decided to visit for my partners' birthday and it didn't disappoint. We will be back very soon.
