A wide selection of food on the menu to choose from & very focused on local sustainable food. We had beetroot soup, savoury scrolls & cod cheeks orzo on this visit & it was excellent.Very tasty. Very well priced. Excellent service from the hospitality students in training. Very welcoming in the centre of the city-hidden gem!

Went there for a Tuesday tasting menu, and was just bowled over. The food was fabulous – beyond being prepared you could say it was orchestrated. A variety of tastes and textures, all wonderful, over six courses. An incredible of selection of whiskies for a drink before, and a wine list that was not only wide ranging, but had prices that could only be described as reasonable, (I won’t dare say cheap.) The only niggle, and this is tiny, is that the timing of getting the courses to the table was slightly uneven. Next time I’m in Belfast this will be my first port of call for dinner, and, if I’m there early enough, lunch.

First visit. Tasting menu - excellent. Atmosphere good and surroundings top notch. Service could have been a bit faster but otherwise a very enjoyable experience. I'll visit again around Christmas.

Although it is a university training school, I have been to others and unfortunately, this night, wasn't as good. I expect it was just unlucky on our part rather than across the whole restaurant. The food was what you would expect and some of the pieces exceptional; all down to personal taste but all presented professionally. However, our table was forgotten about and whilst other tables were on their third and fourth course, we were still waiting on our second. When it was noticed, our remaining courses came at a rate so we all finished at the same time however with the portion sizes, this was more funny than an issue. Best this happen in a learning environment and I'm sure it was just us and one other table. I'd still go back again.

This is the university training school restaurant however it is as good if not better than most city centre restaurants and at a reasonable cost. Food has excellent flavours and great variety of dishes. Service excellent given the staff were possibly serving the public for the first time. Attentive and helpful. Will definitely return.

Stunning. It’s a rare thing to have a working restaurant attached to a university. The students get hands on, supervised, exceptional training. Quality of food and service is wonderful. Training the next generation of culinary and hospitality stars.

As part of Ulster University, this is where students get the opportunity to learn and practice their skills. There is a set menu and I don't eat meat but this was accommodated and I was given an alternative (which I know my dining companions would have preferred). Excellent service and a lovely atmosphere.
