Wow. A fantastic Italian. Every time I go here I'm impressed with the service but most of all the food. I had a tomato based dish (sorry can't remember which!) and it was out of this world. The meatballs starter was seriously tasty too. Goats cheese polenta which we've had before is very good too.
Went here with my partner to try, and it was beautiful.
We had two pieces of bread for a starter, which alone on the menu was unreal, having so many different options to choose from.
The food itself was lovely, very flavourful, it was too flavourful for my taste, but it's not worth giving a lower
Outstanding food and service to match. Tried and trusted combo of small plates and mains didn't disappoint. The polenta and gnocchi as sides should be mandatory. The cheesey garlic bread deserves much more than the rudimentary name it was given... another level. Really, really, really good. Youngste
Best Sunday roast I've had in a long time, great service and selection of drinks.
Lovely evening eating out with friends! Food is top quality and I found it to be very tasty. The staff were lovely, friendly and went the extra mile to make our table virgin cocktails which weren't on the menu. Honestly a great experience and a true gem of Ballysnack! Will be back
Menu is a bit off the beaten track. Staters and desserts were good but found it very hard to choose a main. In the end i went for a mediocre carbonara.
Gorgeous brunch on Saturday with cocktails because why not? Always a warm welcome from Naomi and team and food and cocktails were gorgeous. This place never disappoints
Food was fantastic. We hadn't been for a while after being regular customers for years. Menu has lots of variety, whether you want small or larger meal, and my arancini starter followed by meatball bruschetta was delicious. Will be back soon.
I recently visited Il Pirata for dinner and had a great experience. The atmosphere was really warm and inviting with ambient lighting and a cozy atmosphere. The pizza was delicious and reasonably priced. I would highly recommend Il Pirata for anyone looking for a great Italian meal.
Had a lovely three course lunch here at the weekend. Very reasonable and the food was divine. I had duck ragu with gnocchi for my main. Nicest gnocchi I've ever had. Melted in the mouth.
My favourite restaurant in Belfast. For lovers of great tastes and Italian food. The Sunday sharing roasts are incredible, and the chichettis, crispy gnocchi & tiramisu are real highlights. Great staff.
Never disappoints.
My wife and I tried the sharing Sunday Chicken Roast..it was delicious and even had loads left to take away.The service is second to none and the atmosphere is so relaxed..it's always a lovely experience dining here.
Brilliant food as always, a great atmosphere with excellent staff. Nothing else to be said!
Great place for quirky Italian fare. And a great choice with regular seasonal specials.
Food was really tasty and a good menu to choose from. Went for the smoked duck starter and had the pasta carbonara which turned out to be great fuel for the Belfast marathon the following day!
One of the best meals I've had in a long time and the manager was an absolute delight couldnt recommended enough
