Benedicts: Beat The Clock
  • Tip Rating:
  • Satisfaction:
  • This place is a part of the Benedict's Hotel, and there is a pub below the restaurant.

    They had a special promotion called "Beat The Clock". It runs 7 days a week from 5:30pm to 7:30pm. The time you order is the price you pay. We ordered right at 5:30pm, which means the price of our meal was just 5.50/each!

    Note that not all dishes are part of the promotion. Look for a clock symbol on the menu.

    I had Duck with mashed potato. (See photo.)
    The portion was very big, but it was so tasty, I finished it!

    Robinsons Bar: Quiet and Good Meal
  • Tip Rating:
  • Satisfaction:
  • Tables were placed in widely open space.
    Nice jazz BGM, and good selection of beer and wine.

    I had Chicken strips with Thai flavored noodle (6.95).
    It was spicy and good.

    Scalini: Italian
  • Tip Rating:
  • Satisfaction:
  • Owned by a genuine Sicilian and sister restaurant to the long standing but recently refurbished Villa Italia, Scallini serves the best pizza in Belfast. The menu is wide and will cater for all tastes from Steak and chips to fine pasta dishes.
    The decor is flamboyantly Italian and worth a visit alone.

    For me the starter would be the Rigatoni Scalini (pasta in a tomato, cream and brandy sauce with bacon. They will do a starter portion of any of the pasta dishes if you ask) and a Picante pizza for main course. Those with elasticated waistlines, should order the Fudge nut sundae. Ask them nicely and they will make it with honeycomb ice cream instead of vanilla (tell them I sent you!). Sooo much nicer

    The Khyber: Indian
  • Tip Rating:
  • Satisfaction:
  • Dont be mislead by the fact this place sits on top of a petrol station.

    Typical dodgy Indian restaurant decor and music (no offence indented to anyone who may take offence at such things), but superb food cooked by a bloke who lives in our Mews.
    I defy you to find better this side of India.

    Call me a large tart, but their Chicken Tikka Korma is to die for.
    Try their Tandori mix for starters, washed down with a Tiger beer.

  • Satisfaction:
  • On a good night you will get the best food and always the best service in Belfast in this restaurant.
    The staff is extremely knowledgeable about both the food and wine and always manages a perfect balance between friendliness and utter professionalism.

    If its on try the Venison (I can hear the hisses and boos coming from some camps already) if not take pot luck with confidence and enjoy

    Bourbon: For a theatrical meal
  • Tip Rating:
  • Satisfaction:
  • We went here for our christmas meal, and it is another restaurant in Belfast we have always wanted to try.

    Its theatrically decorated inside, the toilets reminded me of a theatrical old dressing room. The menu is reasonably priced, and they offer a pre-theatre menu that is a good deal. They also have a good drinks selection (could order midori for the first time in ages lol).

    The food was great, really filling, and a little bit fancy but not pretentious, makes you feel a bit more fancy eating there though.

    They have their full menu and some great pictures on their website.

    I loved the dessert, baileys cheese cake with a caramel sauce. The main pasta course was good as well, and I heard they did the steak well also.

    The Dirty Duck: Holywood without the tinse(l)
  • Tip Rating:
  • Satisfaction:
  • This is probably best termed a gastropub but I'm sure the owner Nelson would hate the term.

    Set on the shore in Holywood it is well worth the journey with many a fine dish. Bookings are recommended on weekends for the upstairs but food is served downstairs wherever you can find a space.

    Also recommended by CAMRA for it's beer.

    Sweet Chilli Chicken Salad is always excellent as is the terriaki chicken.

    Isibeals cafe: A hearty Ulster Fry in Belfast city centre
  • Tip Rating:
  • Satisfaction:
  • My friend and I ate breakfast at Isibeals cafe during our weekend visit to Belfast in July 2008.

    After an early morning flight, we dumped our bags at the hotel and set off into Belfast city centre in search of a much needed fry up – and in particular, the famous Northern Irish Ulster Fry!

    Wandering down High Street on a bleak and rainy summer’s morning, we spotted the menu board outside Isibeals advertising the object of our desires. A standard Ulster Fry could be had for 2.70 GBP, but after our overnight journey it was the King Size Fry at 3.90 GBP that appealed to us!

    We sat at a wooden table inside this warm and friendly café and placed our order with the smiling waitress. After a short wait, our plates of sausage (x2), bacon (several rashers), fried eggs (x2), mushrooms, tomato, potato bread and soda bread arrived at our table. The greasy fry up was much appreciated and we devoured our breakfasts pretty quickly, but eating an Ulster Fry every day wouldn’t be a very healthy idea!

    I washed my breakfast down with a glass of fresh orange juice (1 GBP), while my friend had a coffee (same price) with his.

    Other breakfast options are available, including scrambled eggs on toast, bacon sandwiches and healthier options, while lunchtime options include fish and chips.

    A friendly café serving the hearty “Ulster Fry”. Highly recommended!
