    Service slow. Staff pleasant. Food presentation poor. Lack of imagination. Quality of food average. Food and presentation did not match up to the restaurant’s own marketing. Disappointing.

    I took my boyfriend here for his Birthday, i was a bit sceptical as it was under a hotel/connected. HOWEVER, it was the most amazing restaurant we have been too, the staff were outstanding and very quick with service. We Pre- Booked but ran a little late and they treated us no differently. The food was just delicious and amazing, we did the 2 course meal and we enjoyed every single moment of the food and staff. The environment was amazing. We didn't catch the names of the staff who helped us, the main manager himself was a star and also the young girl who served our drinks etc, blonde girl. Smile on her face every second of the night when serving. Worth the trip to the resturant and worth keeping the service charge on!

    Not enough staff working, no fault of the staff but of the venue in not booking enough staff to cope with the numbers of customers. Lots queueing and we had to ask about our main course which had been sitting out. No water offered to the table or brought. All the staff perfectly nice but hotel not scheduling enough staff and leaving those there at the deep end

    Booked for group of ten for a birthday meal as the menu had a wide range of options that guaranteed some of our more fussy eaters would have something to pick from. Was a bit concerned with some of the reviews I read but really glad we stayed with this choice. Booked for 5pm and the restaurant was very quiet, were there for over 2 hours and despite it being full by the time we left, noise levels didn't seem to go up. The food was outstanding, service fantastic. Our granddaughter usually only takes a few mouthfulls of food when we go to other restaurants but cleared her plate in all three courses, cant get a better review than that! All in all a great experience; hadn't considered this as a possible venue before this booking but will definitely be back.

    Food was good, but nothing outstanding. My friends were looking forward to the chocolate souffle but were rather disappointed when both appeared to be chocolate mousse! A second drink was ordered which never arrived, we couldn't wait any longer so cancelled it and asked for the bill. It was also Belfast Restaurant Week with special menus on, but when shown to our seats, they failed to give us these menus, probably because they were better offers- I had to ask to ask for these.
