lovely food; lovely staff; lovely ambience. Food excellent overall and cooked to perfection; wine was superb. A bit on the high price - but you get what you pay for.

I recently invited my mum out for a birthday brunch of Afternoon Tea at the Parisien. Neither of us had been before so it was a new experience for the both of us which we enjoyed thoroughly. We had pre-booked so were seated quickly. Not long after being seated we had our drinks order of two passionfruit mocktails taken by a lovely waiter called Declan, who greeted us with such warmth and hospitality and even wished my mum a happy birthday which was sweet. The Afternoon Tea was brought to our table swiftly and was superb, despite each food being appetiser in size it was incredibly filling and left us absolutely stuffed. My mum was a huge fan of the potato and leek soup while I could've eaten a whole bucket full of the tomato and red pepper crostinis! Once we made a dent in the sweets we had to get a box to take the remainder with us which wasn't an issue! We had a great time, the atmosphere and aesthetic of the Parisien was such a treat and the friendliness of the staff (in particular, Declan) topped it off! We highly recommend this establishment and would definitely be back.

Def not the Galgorm standard I know. Arrived just before 7pm to find we had no booking...there were 10 of us. The table was checked 3 times before via in person and the phone twice. Finally got our table at 7.30. Starters served at 8.30 and dinner at 9.30, I was starving to say the least. My main course was so small that I was still hungry afterwards. Never have I had a main course were 1 potato was cut in 4...must have been a shortage. We finished our meal and proceeded to order drinks after but by 10.45pm the bar staff said 'the bar has closed' Never heard last orders being called. We were there to celebrate 2x 60th Birthdays so we were dissatisfied with the service is an understatement. As you can imagine with 10 people, the bill was very big. No sign of any discount but didnt fail to add on their service charge. Never will I darken the doorway of Parisien again.

First time in I found the decor very pleasing to the eye I ordered a pint off Heverlee costing £7.90 almost £1.50 dearer than the Grand Central Hotel Belfast ,I then decided to have a small Waldoft Salad having been a chef in my day I made it often it was gorgeous I ordered another pint off Heverlee ,whilst there I used the shared Male Female toilet I for one do not like that for 2 the toilets were not hygienic, with men's pee on the floor and water being on a walking stick I had to be very careful not to slip .My father would have walked out seeing the toilets we were reared with the view first look at the 5oilets if there spotless so is the kitchen .For Valentines weekend I'm sending my daughter and son in law to the Merchant Hotel Belfast I was thinking one off their evening meals I would book the Parisian but I've decided no two evening meals in the Merchant where I'm guaranteed cleanliness all over ,I will go back but I shall check the toilets first if there not spotless I shall politely let them know and leave .I'd rather eat in a clean cafe with spotless toilets than eat there again .An early review men5ioned a waiter seeming too try too hard yes he served me he looked exhausted and fed up ,maybe he should change jobs for better hours and better pay

Visited for the first time a few days ago with friends and never again. First of all, took a good while for the order to be taken. When the food 'finally' arrived, it was extremely disappointing before even tasting it. I ordered the steak frites 'well done' but did not expect a burnt shrivelled piece of meat on my plate. Proceeded to cut into the steak and it was extremely tough and not well done on the inside at all, bright pink, which absolutely turns me. The ones that ordered the chicken supreme were also highly disappointed with the tiniest chicken thigh set on green mush and no garlic potatoes as was on the menu. A few people actually stopped at McDonalds on the way home it was that sparse. Dessert, profiteroles came with the middle not filled with fresh cream as what is the usual but with GREY HARD stuff in the middle. Was also on the menu to come with chocolate ice cream but came with vanilla. Let's just say I've not been well today. Service was extremely slow, as the other reviews state, we were forgotten about. Had to ask a few times for our water to be filled, every time the jugs were taken away they didn't come back without us asking. Also as below reviews say, we must've waited about half an hour after finishing our mains for our plates to come and dessert to come, and again we had to ask for this to be done. £38 for 2 courses.....definitely not worth it. First and last time being here and won't be back or recommending.

I hate writing negative reviews but feel that feedback may help this place reach its potential. Our overall experience was hit and miss but the overall disappointment came from the service. Some very basic level things were not done well. The venue itself is beautiful. Light, bright and comfortable. On arrival the maitre d was pleasant, polite and helpful. They accommodated my young nephew for food he would like and made us feel very welcome. Unfortunately after our food arrived we seemed to be forgotten about. No one came to check if we were OK, to take drink orders or to clear plates and glasses. We waited an hour before I called someone to order kids dessert. We chose bottomless brunch but regretfully is not completely worth it as no one came to top up drinks. We got 3/4 drinks each so not all bad but we had to call someone each time and on one occasion I went to the bar myself to order but it got forgotten about anyway and I had to call someone. If there is 2 hours for bottomless the drinks need to be quicker and staff more attentive. I am hopefully wrong but at times it appeared that service staff actively tried to avoid us. I made eye contact and gestures which were ignored (possibly unseen) as staff appeared to disappear behind a partition or corner. For a venue at this price point the service was just not up to standard. I have worked in hospitality myself and do not wish to be waited on hand and foot but the basics of regular check-ins, clearance of dishes and bottomless drink orders should be met easily. The food and drinks were tasty so no issues there but until service is improved upon I would not spend my money to return especially for bottomless brunch which offers 6 drinks but gave not chance to get that many even if they are wanted or not.

My Husband & myself went to Cafe Parisien on Thursday 22nd February for an early special birthday afternoon tea. WOW! It was amazing. Staff were so friendly & professional. The afternoon tea was absolutely gorgeous. Can not remember staff names but their all a credit to Cafe Parisien. We had a window seat upstairs with amazing views over Belfast City Hall. Thank you so very much for a truly memorable day. Diane.

A group of 10 work colleagues attended for the evening 3 course meal etc. The food was ok, but I wasn't able to enjoy the food given the following. What ruined the experience was that we were seated along the end window which has a long couch to sit on. We were given 4 small tables joined together, the type a couple would sit at. There were only 5 single chairs so the 5 sitting window side had to squeeze together along a table fit for 4. I ended up on a chair sitting angled to a table corner as again not enough space on that side of the table either. I almost considered holding my plate in my hand. There was no offer from the staff of an additional chair so we could seat people at the two table ends, or an extra table which would have been ideally the best solution. We were going to ask but a few in the group didn't want to complain as the discomfort was obvious to see, just ignored by the staff. Perhaps this is a regular seating arrangement and therefore the staff didn't take notice of it. When the bill was split a tip seemed to have been automatically added, probably normal for a group of 10 diners, but to do so when we had obviously sat the whole meal in discomfort was a bit distasteful. Tips are the customers way of rewarding satisfactory service. When they are added automatically, regardless of the level of service given, it's simply an additional charge and looses its significance. Perhaps if dining there, only do so in smaller groups.

The service here was really slow to the point that we had to get up to order drinks. Our plates were left in front of us for an hour as we finished our drinks. The food was average at best, well done steak was pink, my friend was too embarrassed to return as no one came near us. We were excited to come here for brunch but will not be returning, a completely underwhelming experience which could have been excellent given the location.

Lovely location & perfect for birthday drinks! They did get one of our drink orders wrong but they were happy to fix it! & 10/10 service from CJ the bartender - I was unhappy with one of the drinks I ordered (spicy margarita, was overwhelmingly sweet) and he remade it perfectly. Ended up being one of the best spicy margs I’ve ever had ⭐️

Very disappointed by the service. Very slow service, had to come in from outdoor area to place order for drinks as we had been forgotten about. Drinks order was then incorrect, no apology, server took the drink away and never returned with a replacement drink or explanation. Partner went inside to check on the status of replacement drink, told it was on the way and server waved his hand at the bar as if to say ‘look it’s being made’ (very rude). Partner returned and had finished his drink and still no sign of my replacement drink. Decided to leave at this point as very poor service and no communication. It didn’t appear to be busy, staff appeared to be very confused. Explained there was a mix up with drinks to ensure I would not be changed. No apology again. Very disappointing as views of city hall were lovely. May have stayed longer if service had been better.

Great food, great service. Wedding anniversary dinner, attended to by the lovely Ella. What a lovely time we had amongst a happy, almost festive atmosphere in the room. I wasn’t particularly hungry, but couldn’t help finishing the braised shin of beef, it was that good, the Jerusalem Artichoke Risotto too was superb and such an excellent point of difference on a menu. Ella guided us with our food and drink choices, and seemed to be genuinely interested in our experience - great lady. Then she comes out with an extra treat for us - see attached photo, thank so much team. The dessert panacotta was superb too. Fully recommend a visit.

My partner and I always admired the building when passing, so we finally had a chance to call in. We were told to be seated and would be served soon. We waited and waited but no one came to take our order. I went to the bathroom and the bar man was just collecting glasses. Maybe he forgot about us. The welcome we got wasn't great. A bit unintersted. The inside lacked atmosphere. Most other customers looked miserable. If you've been to Paris before, you will understand this cafe doesn't live up to it's French style title!

I wrote to the restaurant with my review but they haven't bothered to reply so I thought it's fair to post it here. We had a very mixed experience at Parisien but won't be giving them the benefit of a second chance. 1. Our gluten-allergic guest was ill soon after her meal so it seems like there was some cross-contamination. They were aware and the waitress checked. This is unacceptable and the lack of concern from the restaurant reflects our overall experience. 2. The service was friendly but generally poor. When you have 3 or 4 staff standing around chatting with only a couple of staff actually serving there is no excuse for lax service. As examples, we had to ask for our wine twice, had to ask for our desserts twice and repeatedly had to ask to have empty plates, glasses and water.bottles cleared. 3. Some of the food was very good, some of it simply wasn't good enough. For example, 2 guests had venison. One piece was cooked very well. The other was very rare, borderline send it back. Of the deserts. The profiteroles were hard and the filling was stodgy. The chocolate pudding was heavy. The wrong ice cream was served and had to be changed. The Dophinois potato was excellent. The sauce for the venison was excellent, the red cabbage overload was not.

Food was tasty and the service over all was good. We got the set menu and started off with a duck parfait and sautéed mushrooms which were nice. But, the main meals were absolutely amazing - we had the chicken supreme and salmon which was the fish of the day. Lovely.

As a first time visitor to The Parisien I was atracted by the generial appearance from the street and especialy by the menu displayed in the window. At 1.15 pm on a very busy Monday, the final one before Xmas, I wasn't suprised to be asked to wait for a few minutes for a table. On being seated I was advised that there would be a short delay before my order could be taken as the kitchen was under presssure . In view of how busy the streets of the city were with throngs of people this didn't surprise me. Despite the servers being busy I was quickly provided with a carafe of iced water with a slice of lemon. The pre warned of delay in my foods arival gave me time to review my mornings visit to the city and plan my afternoon in very plesant and comfortable surroundings. My choice of Lemon & Thyme Chicken Supreme with roast root vegetables, winter greens, pomme purée, ham & leek velouté was delicious, cooked perfectly. The selection of deserts, although I resisted the temptation to sample, all apeared to be excellent and judging by the empty desert dishes on nearby tables would not have disapointed. All in all an ecellent experience, delightful suroundings, first class staff and superb food. I will be back next time I travel into the city !

Our family had a very pleasant evening at Cafe Parisien, particularly because the service was friendly and good. The food was lovely, although the duck starter could have benefited from a sauce. It just felt a little over priced for what we got

We had to wait around 45 mins for a drink. They may have had a shortage of bar staff as all the glasses were piled high at the bar. It took a good 15 to 20 minutes to attract attention of the staff. The food...

Ambience is first class as is the food and service but what let it down was the state of the bathrooms. Water over the floor, toilet roll over the place. More attention to the finer details but I will be back

Good food, good warm and friendly service, very near Belfast City Hall in the town centre. Very busy in the run up to Christmas but the staff accommodated us. Good food, served hot by warm friendly and pleasant staff. I will return.

Downstairs toilet was dirty. Prices of tea are quite dear. Green tea wasn't the nicest. Staff were lovely though

Situated right across the street from City Hall where the Christmas market was in full swing. We enjoyed a croc monsieure for lunch which proved both satisfying and tasty. The decor is lovely and creates an atmosphere of a typical Parisien cafe without the smoking....

We had a lovely dinner here. Great food, lovely view over the Christmas market and friendly service. I had two starters rather than a main course and starter as the choices were so tasty. French onion soup lovely.
