Scalini for good Italian in Belfast. Scalini is an Italian restaurant on Botanic Avenue in the middle of the student quarter near Queen's University. It has always been fairly busy when I have eaten there. The food is always good and sometimes quite excellent. I recently had a dish of seafood with linguine (linguine pescatora) that was really excellent, and just full of shellfish -- no skimping there. The wines are nice, and the Italian coffee is really good. The prices seem reasonable, and the service is prompt and friendly. The atmosphere is lively, with groups of young people and families. Overall a place to return to.
Great food at reasonable price. No wonder the restaurant was packed. However, it took 40' for the food to come out, which is too much waiting. We were surprised we didn't get the starter first, instead it came with the main courses
Fantastic Italian restaurant near to where we stayed in Belfast. Fantastic set up and felt like had been transported to Italy. Food was tasty, served in timely manner and wait staff friendly and helpful. So good we may come back for the second night of our stay
