Isn’t it nice if you go into a restaurant and there is an owner who really takes care of you? That’s the case if you visit Coco. The atmosphere was lively, we had the best monkfish dish served in a wine sauce which was spectacular, and the decaffeinated coffee was truly delicious!

What a great find during a trip to Belfast !!! Lovely vibrant decor and luxury feel inside the restaurant. The menu was a lovely selection of different dishes and very reasonably priced. The pork I had was divine and enjoyed the cheese board to follow. Definite recommendation and will definitely return next time in Belfast

Went last night for Christmas Dinner and I had heard such good reports . Sadly it was probably the worst Xmas dinner I have had. The turkey and ham was like a rolled processed thing.Tasteless. Poor quality gravy , a spoonful of mashed carrot and parsnip , no Sprouts. I do not think it is actually hard to go so badly wrong with what is a stable easy traditional thing for a restaurant. The starter and service were excellent but I'm left feeling very underwhelmed and disappointed . Just slice some meat , roast some veg, easy !

Booked the restaurant as part of our weekend visit from London. Situated in the city centre. The staff were very welcoming and approachable the whole evening. We were never rushed. The food was delicious, so too was the wine. The walls are lined by beautiful and unusual paintings by a local artist. The atmosphere is bubbly and everyone seemed to be having a great time.

Was here for a work-related group meal in Nov '23 and while there were a lot of people the service was really prompt, friendly and most importantly the food was excellent. The starter and dessert were very nice but my steak was perfect, genuinely one of the best I've ever had. Would hope to go again when visiting Belfast in the future.

I ordered the sirloin steak, which was delicious. The only complaint I have is the service was unsatisfactory, I took my mum here to celebrate her birthday and requested for a happy birthday message on her dessert but was met with an arrogant response. Waiter made no effort and just said no we cannot do that tonight, there were also times I gestured out to the waiter who just ended up ignoring me. Not impressed

Well what more can be said about this place. I've been many times and it never fails to deliver!!!! The food is just incredible. Fresh ingredients done absolutely right. Fine choice of options and even cater for allergy needs. Tim and the front of house staff are accommodating and professional at all times. A true well oiled machine! Paul and the chefs cook the finest food superbly and never offer anything short of perfection. The restaurant itself offers a seductive ambiance with snazzy artwork along with great design. I would recommend anyone with braincells to pop in for a truly unforgettable experience! You might even be lucky enough to see a Holywood celebrity or two like we did.

The menu does not match up with the one on their website e.g. no pigeon starter; no lamb rump for main; seafood linguini replaced by another linguine Moreover the menu as presented does not always match the food received . The burrata we ordered had no blood orange and the amount of burrata was, quite frankly, a disgrace. The lobster linguini had prawns (as well as some lobster) and the sauce was not as described . Sloppy

This has lovely food and the place has a nice ambiance, the only criticism I would have is they answer their voice messages when you leave a message to book a table and also when you book online which I did they didn't take note of it because when we arrived they nearly didn't have a table not good in that respect.

Coco is one of the top rated restaurants in Belfast, but unfortunately for me I might have gotten in on a bad day. We had the roast beef here on a Sunday, and the beef was so tough and chewy that I honestly couldn’t finish it. The restaurant itself is quirky and has character, with all the artworks all around the restaurant. The risotto was alright although a tad bit to the salty side. I had high expectations due to the reviews, but maybe I just ordered the wrong dish.

The food is clearly good, but the options for vegetarians are a bit disappointing. All you get is access to some veggie starters that are then doubled up to be a main. The issue is that the starters are designed to be small and packed with flavour, which means they are too rich to have in volume. I've been twice with a work event, and both times I was left wanting. The servers are great and the drink options are good, it's just not a place I could recommend for vegetarians or vegans.

I love Coco so this visit was very disappointed. We arrived the day before covid passport restrictions were to be enforced ie had been in place for a fortnight and we weren't checked not even track and trace. Overheard manager telling customers who had shown theirs that it was a waste of time and he obviously didn't understand the process of checking covid passports. My steak was heavily over seasoned and badly cooked, a replacement was a really bad cut, full of grissle, although there was no argument when I said I wouldn't pay the steak supplement.

Had a meal in Coco last weekend and although it is a lovely restaurant I was disappointed with the food. We started with venison which was good but the lamb we had for main course was very disappointing. It was accompanied by a small scoop of potato a little sprig of kale and a nugget of carrot swimming in gravy it's not really what I expected from one of my favourite restaurants. For Dessert we choice the cheese board which had a £5 supplement I think covid and lockdown is taking its toll on our great restaurants were the standard is slipping but the cost is rising. I hope this trend is not a permanent fixture

The Hooselocation-icon52 Upper Newtownards RoadOther cuisines

My partner and I finished off a day in Belfast with a meal at the Hoose. We have been here before on several occasions. The place has had a refit during lockdown and it looks amazing! As always we were greated and shown to our table by Ross. He is always so friendly, asking us about our day out and taking an interest in what we had been at. It's so hard to make a decision on what to have! Finally we both settled on squid to start followed by the salmon. The Hoose has a new chef and with him and Sarah in the kitchen the food was exceptional. I would have included pictures but it looked and smelt so good I decided just to eat instead! The atmosphere, service and food at the Hoose are second to none. Its so lovely to see sarah and her team back doing what they do best. Thank you again for another fantastic meal.
