We have been here for both an impromptu tapas meal and then came back for the sharing platter cote de beouf. We can honestly say we love it here. Relaxed atmosphere, great cocktails, fabulous food and great staff. It is our new favourite hidden gem in Belfast….if you haven’t found it do look out and give it a go!

Very nice atmosphere and great service. Food was wonderful. Chicken burger and cheese burger with Brie were outstanding. Veggies were unfortunately cooked a tad long…the ‘Irish way’ (but it was just a side dish, so that’s oke). For me this was by far the best place to eat during my stay in Belfast.

Where left sitting at table for 20 mins with no service( hadn’t ordered anything at this stage)asked waiter could we order drinks- told I don’t do it like that a serve one table until they are finished. So how long until we can get a drink “ about 10 mins” . We just left at this point. I am happy to wait on food but 30 mins before you are offered drinks not acceptable

While the staff were great we found that the quality of the food wasn't so great. It was also overpriced for what it was. This was the first time at 44 Hill Street and we won't be back.

Tuvimos la mejor experiencia aquí. Guillaume (el propietario) , Lucas, y Luke, fueron los mejores. Tuvimos unos cócteles fantásticos, a mi mujer le encantó lo pasado de moda y los hace todo el tiempo, y la comida era increíble. El aperitivo de queso de cabra frito estaba perfectamente hecho, al igual que los aros de cebolla. Los mejores aros de cebolla que hemos probado. Tenía el boeuf bourguigon y las patatas dauphinoise, ambos también genial. Gran ambiente, comida y personal.

Fuimos a cenar a este encantador restaurante - tenía una mezcla de una tabla de compartir y una variedad de platos de tapas entre tres de nosotros. La comida fue maravillosa. Teníamos costilla corta de res, vientre de cerdo, croquetas de chorizo y croquetas de eglefino. Personalmente me encantó la costilla corta y el cerdo. De postre tuvimos Bailey’s Cheescake que era increíble, Chocolate némesis que era excelente y crema brûlée. Los cócteles eran geniales también.

We ordered a burger, the gnocchi and some fries. The orders were very small and the gnocchi was the worst I ever had. Very mushi and zero texture. It also contained lettuce on top, which obviously became warm and was not nice. The taste of the burger was ok, but it was way too expensive (£15) for the bun, a burger, a slice of tomato and a single leaf of lettuce. The waiter never came to ask if the food was good, so there was no possibility for feedback. We ate our dishes, but we left the restaurant very dissappointed.

Went in after having tried other places on Hill St that unfortunately had their kitchens closed. Ordered quickly as noted a very large group of young men came in, sadly I wasn't alerted to the fact that their meals were preordered so we had to wait till they were all served their dinner. Beef bourguignon was quite tasty but my husband's steak though medium rare was more tough than it should've been and he really needed his steak knife to get through it. Sides of veges a total flop, broccoli a very insipid colour with overcooked carrot and some unusual potato type fingers mixed in that had obviously been boiled or steamed. I could've overlooked much of this had the bill not been so overpriced at £90 for three drinks and sad food.

After a long day of touring Northern Ireland, in Belfast, we sat down for lunch at 44 Hill Street at almost 5:00 pm, we were very well looked after, a cozy place, polite and attentive people. Everything was very tasty, from the starters to the main dishes, very well served and quite tasty. It was a rather pleasant find. Excellent value for money. $$

After struggling to find somewhere that did vegetarian food we eventually stumbled on this place and decided we couldn’t be bothered going on much further. Glad we did cos the food was beautiful. Fairly decent range of vegetarian food. The meal I had was absolutely delicious, especially the dessert. The chocolate nemesis was stunning. Don’t expect to be rushed in here. Our server was under a load of pressure as it started to fill up but handled it well and was really lovely. Not the cheapest restaurant around, but everything provided was of a really high standard so you can live with paying a bit more than other places. Would definitely go again when I’m back in Belfast.

Quite mixed opinion. We have 3 dishes A perfectly cooked fish of the day, a cordon bleu taken for our daughter (in the absence of a children's menu offered) and a beef burger... I was very disappointed by the latter which was very small and served without ANY accompaniment and the beef is more than average (frozen?). The other 2 dishes had a mini side of salad. The value for money is not there.

First of all, the location and service are great. Orders were ready to eat in less than 15 minutes. The cordon bleu was very tasty and absolutely reasonable in price. The fries were absolutely horrible and way too overpriced for the quantity, but after complaints were made they were kindly removed from the bill immediately. The burger was certainly tasty, but very small and absolutely overpriced. In terms of food, I didn't have anything that stood out from the many other restaurants in the area.

Disappointing to say the least, there were two people in a serving capacity, the local lady who organized the drinks was lovely, however the gentleman who took our order and served the food was nothing less than indifferent. The automatic 10% gratuity is an insult, as he obviously knows that no one in their right mind would provide a tip. As an example, we had to hunt for our own cutlery on other tables!!! Took the order, dropped the food, disappeared, came back for the Visa card. Please do yourself a favour and skip this one.

We stopped there for an early dinner as we were wandering around Commercial Court. Nice place, good service (Araz, I´m not sure I spell his name right, he is from Kurdistan, was really nice). I had the fish of the day and as side dish the dauphinoise, potatoes cutted and in a pile very well seasoned. Both were a great match. My husband chose a pasta, a very tasty carbonara. Good choice, great service and very good food.

We ordered a drink on arrival and nothing appeared at our table for nearly half an hour. Had to ask for menus. Food was average. We found it difficult to get the bill —a waiter who may have been French brushed us off saying that he was looking after other people. To conclude very poor service with an unpleasant atmosphere. There are lots of other nicer restaurants around the Cathedral quarter. We won’t be back.

The ambiance and staff were great. The tapas were really good - we loved the goat cheese croquettes with lavender honey and the crispy halloumi. The drinks were also nice, but the mains left a lot to be desired. We aren't usually picky, but the gnocchi was really flavourless and dry - I had to salt it quite a bit to make it palatable and only ate part of the portion, and I have never met a gnocchi I didn't like! My partner said his chicken cordon bleu was also really bland. If we go back, it would just be for some small plates. Also they do add a service charge automatically to the bill, even for a table of two, so be aware of that.

I've never been embarrassed in a restaurant as I was in this one. I arived with my husband and the French sir instead of directing us to a table, as there were many empty ones, he handed us the menu, pointed to the prices and left. He left us standing at the entrance for a long time. When he came back he asked us if we are going to order something. We really felt very undervalued, as if we didn't have money to pay. We ordered two burgers, mine with additional brie cheese, I paid £2 for 3 tiny cheese rectangles on top of the meat hahhaah how ridiculous. We never, ever step foot in this place again.

Arrived and front of house just stared at us until we spoke. Focaccia as starter was dry, mains - beef bourguignon was average at best, fish special was overcooked and dry. Dessert awful - cheesecake had a curdled texture and look, sticky toffee pudding was like a brick and ice cream was solid as a rock. We sent back desserts not a word was said of apology, they were however removed from bill. Left one person eating dessert on their own. Service wasn’t great, asked for water never arrived. Had to ask for cutlery at one point also. Extremely disappointing given the price. We weren’t asked once how the food was. There are many better places to eat. Edit on response: Thank you however, we wont be back both the food and service was extremely poor and a waste of money.

Lovely atmosphere and well-presented food. The service was mostly good; however, the staff were slow at clearing plates away, checking if we wanted additional drinks, and if we wanted dessert. The food looked beautiful and was overall nice, but maybe the gnocchi could be more flavorful. Also, the breads and hummus were a little disappointing; the bread wasn't fresh, and the hummus needed more seasoning. Other than that, the other meals were very tasty. The restaurant was busy and the manager seemed to be stressed every time he walked past our table, a smile and some cheerful engagement with his guests would be a nice addition

The food was very good. The restaurant was very cold, despite it being very mild outside. We asked them to put the heating on, but it made no difference. I have become concerned lately that staff in restaurants just pick up your card and tap it without showing you the machine that shows how much they are tapping for. This happened again tonight. That said, the food was lovely

Whilst the food was good, no complaints there, I'd reccomend that no one with children or any mobility issues comes here. Booked a table for 5 at 7pm (so not exactly late) and informed the restaurant well in advance that one of the 5 was a child and would need a highchair. Got to the restaurant and were put on a table of 4 with a highchair in the narrow walkway used by all staff and anyone heading to the toilet. Waiters were lifting hot food over the head of our child and, whilst we were waiting to be moved, a customer kicked the highchair when walking to their table. We moved ourselves to a safer table where the chair wasn't in a walkway but it was kicked again by a waiter trying to squeeze between tables. A wheelchair user or any one with mobility issues would not be able to fit in the restaurant as we were unable to bring a pram through the front entrance. I'd say the cramped nature and amount of covers would be a fire risk were there a need to evacuate. Won't be returning and wouldn't reccomend.

Worst restaurant I’ve ever experienced EVER in Belfast. Sat for over 30 mins on arrival and had to try get staff attention to order a drink and ordered starters and mains at same time. Starters arrived missing one , no apologies and tried to say we didn’t order it! I asked it mains had been ordered correctly and was assured yes…mains arrived wrong 🙈 no apology and had to ask for mine to be taken away to be kept warm . My partners arrived which was beef bourguignon but looked like tinned meat . I nearly broke tooth in my cod due to being kept warm while waiting on beef , they also had the audacity of adding on 10% service charge!! Passed on my feedback while paying and manager couldn’t gives 2 Fs , turned his back while cashing his takings! Nights out are a luxury nowadays , don’t waste your time or money on this place .

Quite possibly the worst mail I’ve actually ever had in my life on Saturday, 9 December 2023. Had bree to start, frozen in the middle so had to return, second one bought out after the rest of the group had all finished their starters, again, it was frozen in the middle and had to be sent back, so I did not get a starter. Main course was turkey and ham, the stuffing was out of a packet mix, the vegetables and cooked to mush, gravy very salty. Had to send back as was literally in edible. When the bill came no amendment had been made and they had the cheek to charge £17 service. Very very very poor quality, would avoid. They also squeeze three people onto tables of two so very uncomfortable.

This place is ridiculous. Had reservation for 5:45. Had a meal for 170 pounds plus 35 pounds gratuity. Manager/owner asked us to finish our drinks at door because they had guests coming in. We went to sit at bar at 7:00pm. Table is still empty at 7:20pm. Very offended by poor hospitality. Will never return. Additionally, they added 15 pound service charge and never indicated that it was added when I gave additional 20 pounds. Definitely find them mistrustful.

Myself and my date had a reservation to eat at your establishment on Saturday evening of the 2nd December. The service wasn't 100%. I can't fault everything, but there were a few things that weren't up to standard. Firstly, we were not given water to fill up the empty tumblers already on the table. Secondly the main course was mediocre at best. On the menu, it was promised that alongside the chargrilled steak and fries that there would be extras like shallots. There were not. Instead, it was a plate of steak and chips. It tasted okay, but it was cold, and we left the majority of it behind on the plates, which were cold also. There were long waits in between courses. To consider the service and food and lack of wine in the wrong glass, amongst other complaints I don't believe we will book a table in your establishment again.

Upon recommendation, we visited this restaurant for an early Christmas dinner. When we arrived we were greeted promptly and seated immediately. The restaurant was notably cold, and had no atmosphere. The owner gave us an a la carte menu, and the Christmas special menu. Drinks order was taken pretty much immediately which was great, and then the waiter came back for the food order. We were then informed that unless the whole table were ordering from the Christmas menu then we could not order from it. We found this strange as we had originally been given the two different menus? The owner explained that the reasoning for the whole table having to eat from the one menu was that the chefs had complained about having to cook from two menus and found it confusing. However, I believe this to be a poor excuse as both menus had a lot of the same items, and the other diners were also using the Christmas menu. Meaning that the chefs were cooking for both anyway. We then ordered our starters which came out fairly quick, however they were very disappointing. The pork belly bites were very very salty and fatty and the Brie cold. The fish cake however was very nice. The mains arrived shortly after the starter, and were even more disappointing. The burger was served with an over powering relish that made the whole dish taste of smoked paprika. This was not advertised on the menu. The steak was cooked to perfection, however it was cold, and was served with mushrooms which I had already requested upon ordering to be removed. When I asked for my shallots as advertised on the menu, I was told I could not have them as they were mixed in with the mushrooms which. The skin on skinny fries were already salted, but aside from that they were tasteless. The turkey and ham dinner was anything but fresh, and contained shop bought turkey, ham and stuffing parcels. The chipotles were extremely overdone and the roast potatoes were smaller than the Brussel sprouts. For £24.50, we expected better quality. The waiter who had taken our order was very polite and friendly. What shocked us the most was how rude, abrupt and dismissive the owner was to his staff, especially in front of customers. We have another booking later in the month that we have just cancelled. Unfortunately I do not recommend and will not return.

Avoid this place. My husband and brother went to find somewhere to eat for 9 people ( 2 elderly, 2 kids and 5 adults) as it was absolutely chaotic in Belfast with the market and xmas being around the corner. This was the only place they could find. Upon getting there, I find that they placed us around the front area with the higher seats. With 2 elderly with a walking stick and 2 kids with us I know they’d struggle to get up on them. So I requested to have a normal lower table and seats. The waiter was kind enough and straight away got the manager, however the manager was very dismissive and asked me where my husband and my brother was who he spoke to him earlier on, and that all the available tables at the back were booked and waiting for people. He then proceeds to ignore me and went on the till to do his own thing. The whole time we were there, only a few tables got filled and the back stayed empty. Food wasn’t that great. Not going to come back. In response to the owners comment/reply to this review, I would like to clarify that 1. We were simply told there were seats available. 2. As we seen there were plenty of other seats available we asked if we could be seated at lower table to accommodate the elderly and the kids in our group. 3. I understand that we were accommodated without prior booking being in large group, but what I don’t understand is why we could not have a more suitable table and why the “bookings” could not have used the table that was given to us. 4. All of this could have been politely explained to us, but there was a definite feeling of dismissiveness from management. 5. Again these tables remained unused through out our lunch meal. So their reasoning doesn’t feel valid.

This was the only place they could find. Upon getting there, I find that they placed us around the front area with the higher seats. With 2 elderly with a walking stick and 2 kids with us I know they’d struggle to get up on them. So I requested to have a normal lower table and seats. The waiter was kind enough and straight away got the manager, however the manager was very dismissive and asked me where my husband and my brother was who he spoke to him earlier on, and that all the available tables at the back were booked and waiting for people. He then proceeds to ignore me and went on the till to do his own thing. The whole time we were only a few tables got filled and the back stayed empty. Food wasn’t that great. Not going to come back.

The Cote de Bouef is epic. Staff and service very good.

Restaurant was reasonably quiet. Cocktails took 25-30 mins to arrive. Water took 15 mins. Got a chickpea burger. No texture, just mush. Nice looking place though.

We waited 45 minutes before our food order was taken. Same duration before we got a drink fkr tge table. Starters and tapas were lovely. Mains were fine. We ordered 3 cheese boards for the table to finish. They were presented with undercooked garlic bread. We asked for plain bread or crackers, but none were available. Disappointing end to an average dining experience.

The place was nicely decorated, service was friendly but forgot orders on multiple occasions. The food was overcooked and definitely overpriced. I also am not quite sure why it says "contemporary french cuisine" it's more or less standard Irish food.

Went to 44 Hill Street with my girlfriend on a Tuesday evening for the 5 tapas for £20 deal. Every tapas was gorgeous and it was a great value for the Cathedral Quarter. (personal favourite for me was the Pork Belly bites) I'm still dreaming about them. then finished the meal off with the best espresso martini I've had in a long while. I highly recommend 44 Hill Street!

came here last month and have been meaning to write a review and kept forgetting, but haven’t been able to get the taste of the food out of my head. came here with my mum for a simple night out and did not regret it at all. Told the waiter about my allergens and he couldn’t be more helpful. He stood and pointed out everything on the menu that i could have. I had the pork belly bites and although portion was fairly small, it was absolutely delicious, i just wanted more and more. Had the steak for my main and i have never had such a soft steak before in the best way, it was not too chewy and just melted in my mouth. It was a quiet night and not too busy. Very cosy and food was fab. Definitely going back.

We arrived to a busy restaurant- Left stood at the door for more than 10 minutes before being asked for our booking. Eventually seated . Table felt sticky, poorly cleaned. 3 of us, We ordered 2 starters 3 mains. The Brie was served cold despite supposed to be hot. Croquettes were very very small for the £ value. Here’s where it went really wrong, main 1 arrived , Not as ordered but we waited so long we just accepted it in order to eat. Main 2 arrived a solid 10 minutes after the first came. Fish dish, credit to the chef, very well presented and prepared . Main 3 arrived 5 mins after that- Steak. Pepper sauce should have been served on the side, not poured on like a soup. Despite this , the steak was nicely cooked. Bill requested- serviced charge of 10% added to a 3 person tab. Incredible. Too many good portions i lm Belfast to return tbh

Food was very nice, only let down by dreadful service. Weekend night, but wasn't even particularly hectic.

The staff are lovely and it's a really nice place to eat. I can't actually remember what I ate! But it was in a bowl, vegetarian and delicious lol. There was a lot of choice for meat eaters.

Food was grand, but they brought several things over that we hadn't ordered and when we said we hadn't, they still added them to our bill (we didn't take them). We also had to ask several times for water and one or two other things.

The worst kebab I have ever had in my life absolutely disgusting to say the least Shredded chicken and something that they called Donar meat … even the dog wouldn’t eat it
