“Had a fantastic Chicken Tika and Donner meat kebab from here tonight. First visit but I will for sure be trying more. Thanks guys. Even better the second time.”

“Very nice food selection, very tasty. Staff is polite and every so often check if everything is fine. Atmosphere is quiet and decor is modern. Very nice spot for lunch”

“Wow this was a stunning restaurant within the Merchant hotel (where we were staying for two nights). Got a reservation easily on a Saturday night. Fillet steak medium was amazing, with a side of garlic potatoes. Great experience with the tableside Irish Coffee too. I recommend!”

“Only went in for a pint before a local's funeral. Wee lass behind the bar had stayed across the road from my friend who had died. She had he good grace to take a photo of me and my pal in our kilts”

“Delicious pizzas with great service and all of my guests really enjoyed them”

“Gorgeous cafe / gallery! The best coffee and the scones are amazing! The owner and staff are so friendly and welcoming and the paintings and prints in the gallery are fabulous!”

“Lovely place. Lots to like. Starters, dips, bread all excellent. Chicken fingers and (surprisingly) the Brie highlights from starters for me. Mains were good, very generous with amount of seafood and lamb on our respective dishes. Could maybe do with a touch more seasoning and finesse but satisfactory. Overall an excellent experience and decent value for the amount of food. Server (chef's daughter I believe) was excellent also, warm, friendly and informative. BYOB too which is a bonus (hint:if drinking beer, bring large bottles as corkage is per bottle)”

“The food is amazing here with very friendly service from the owner who cooks all the food and brings it to your table. The prices are much lower than you would expect for food of this quality and locally sourced.”

“The wonderful chinese restaurant in Antrim, Northen Ireland. The boss and staffs are so friendly, foods and everything are really delicious and good. It's great place for everyone who remember asian food. If possible, I will vote 6* for this one.”

“Absolutely amazing! The beef burger was delicious as were the fat chips. The white chocolate cheesecake is to die for with its honeycomb ice cream and strawberries. Great staff too. Relaxed atmosphere and funky decor. Made in Belfast had been recommended and I’m so glad I visited.”

“Brilliant craic in bar. Bar is also very nice. Toilets very clean, only issue was every time we wanted to pay by card, the barman had to go next door to get the card machine (we were in the buffet room), also had to go next door for certain mixers and other alcoholic drinks. But this did not take anything away from the bar experience which was excellent. Staff very friendly.”

“Worker on the phone who took my order was so nice she even added extra cookies in my box love that will definitely be back”

“Staff were very pleasant and keen to serve. The food was beautiful. My seafood dish contained almost as many prawns as usually served in a purely king prawn dish, but augmented with monkfish and squid. I would thoroughly recommend.”

“We stopped in Belfast on our way from the East Coast to West coast just to eat at this restaurant. Beautiful space with a lovely staff. Every item has a gluten free option. The food was not only stunning but absolutely delicious. We had he oysters, salmon gravlax, burrata and the Sunday roast- with beef and with chicken. Let me tell you, the chicken was the best we’ve ever had. Perfectly cooked with extra crispy skin. This place is worth the stop. Highly highly recommend visiting on your next time in Belfast or just passing through.”

“Phenomenal food in the heart of Belfast. Order lots of bites for a medley of tastes and textures. The haloumi fries are seriously good. You won't be disappointed.”

“Was looking for a good Sunday lunch in Belfast and saw a review for McHughs and thought we would try it. We didn’t have a booking and they managed to fit us in. The Sunday beef roast was fantastic alongside the Guinness. Highly recommended and will visit again when back in the city”

“Had lunch here on 02/09/2025. Marvellous variety on the starters/lightbites menu - loads of unusual dishes, so we were spoiled for choice. Chose beef nachos and the crab claws in an Asian sauce with a cheese and onion bap. Everything was delicious, well presented and great portions. The sauce with the crab was so tasty, I used my teaspoon to eat it like a soup. Excellent altogether.”

“Good food, service and great staff”

“Wow. Where do I start. From the gin cocktail mixed by Christian right through to the very end, the meal was five star. Alex and Christina were wonderful waitstaff/ sommeliers who guided us through the meal from start to finish. The Amuse Bouche, the pigeon, the chicken were perfectly sauced and balanced, on a quiet Thursday night, the attention to detail was perfect. And excellent wine list, and suggestions from Christina to match the cheese course was spot on. I can’t rate Blank highly enough! Expensive? Yes. Worth it? Absolutely.”

“From the moment we stepped into the restaurant, we were immediately struck by its warm and inviting atmosphere. The place exudes a perfect blend of elegance and comfort: soft lighting, tasteful décor, and a calm ambiance that makes you feel instantly at ease. Every corner seemed thoughtfully designed, creating a setting that’s both intimate and welcoming, ideal for a quiet meal or a special celebration. The staff truly elevated the experience! Each member of the team was attentive without being intrusive, offering genuine smiles and ensuring every detail was taken care of. Their professionalism, warmth, and knowledge of the menu made the service feel personal and effortless. It’s rare to find a team so dedicated to making guests feel valued. And of course, the food!!! Goodness me, an absolute highlight. Each dish was beautifully presented, with flavors that balanced creativity and comfort. From the first bite to the last, everything tasted fresh and thoughtfully prepared. The ingredients were clearly of high quality. Overall, this restaurant is a true gem because it is the kind of place that leaves a lasting impression, not just because of the food, but because of the warmth, care, and attention to detail that define the entire experience. We would gladly return and greatly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable dining experience.”

“Brilliant staff brilliant food at quality price absolutely love going there friendly welcoming”

“Great food at fantastic prices and excellent service. The staff are also lovely and friendly. I would highly recomend this wee place.”

“Sushi done right! We've had takeaway sushi from Kyoto a few times now and its never disappointed us. Its made fresh to order so be prepared to wait. There's plenty of variety, all fresh, rice is cooked to perfection. Definitely well worth a visit!”

“What an amazing restaurant this place is.. absolutely delicious food and fantastic service. I would definitely recommend and will definitely be back. Thanks guys for a fantastic evening and some delicious food”

“Tried this for the first, second and third time; the food has been consistently outstanding. Large premises but don't let that put you off, needs more people for an atmosphere. I would recommend the chicken tikka shalzlek or lamb hot pot, tandoori king prawns are also a hit alongside the pishwari naan. Service was great. Fantastic authentic Indian”

“We tried this new pizza place for the first time expecting it to be like any other. we were wrong! Each pizza and meal was on another level of tastiness. We also got a portion of salt and chilli fries and full rack of sticky ribs. The meat fell straight off the bone on the ribs - perfect! Great food at an unbeatable price. we will be back down again no doubt about it!”

“Very well positioned, specially for people without transport. Reception was very helpful and accommodated every request. Some tour groups kings of dominated the common area, but that isn't the hotels fault. Room was comfortable. Only criticism is that i would have preferred a secure wifi link rather than an open one”

“Amazingly friendly staff, and service Great atmosphere, and delicious food. 100% Recommend.”

“Dined in recently and the service and food was 10/10. They have much improved over recent times, with the food tasting very fresh and flavoursome. I liked seeing fresh spices being used in the dishes. Portions were large, food was piping hot, and the complementary poppadoms, dips and alcoholic shot with the bill are nice touches. We look forward to returning :)”
