Having been a couple of times before and had great meals I rebooked for my wedding anniversary and looked forward to having a great meal. Unfortunately on this occassion the meal fell well below the previous standards which bascially ruined our whole experience. The starter (wild chargrilled squid) was lukewarm at best and didn't taste of being chargrilled, my wife opted to return hers and had the soup instead. My wife's main course (chicken) was also not sufficently warm enough, the vegetables were cold and the chicken was very dry. The sides (potatoes) were actually cold and had to be returned for a fresh side. Although she was offered to have her main course reheated she declined. I would rate my main course (Steak) no more than a 5 out of 10. I found it quite chewy and not cooked as requested. We opted not to have dessert. On the plus side the member of staff who served us was excellent and dealt very professionally with the situation. The price of my wife's main course was deducted from my bill. Overall it was on this occassion a most disappointing experience hence the rating of 2 stars. I subsequently e mailed the Restaurant concering the occassion but have not received the courtesy of an acknowledgement.

Food and service was lovely and very tasty, my only complaint was the portion of roast beef in the Sunday roast, it was two small slices of paper thin beef, for the price I think the slices at least could be thicker or if so thin then at least three. Something to consider.

Lovely staff and nice atmosphere. The food was nice, but quite rich and heavy, and a little old fashioned. I had the trio of mushrooms, which was very heavily seasoned and the onion chutney overpowered the mushrooms, followed by the duck breast, which was nicely cooked but the blackberry compote had no seasoning at all. It all came to £40 - which I think is pretty expensive. I would expect perfect dishes for these prices.

A Simply sublime experience. This was not our first visit here & I’m loath to rate this restaurant too highly, as it will only get busier 😏. But honesty must prevail. From the moment we entered we could feel the warmth, both of the welcome and the atmosphere. Our server was friendly, attentive and knew the menu items well. My wife had the prawn risotto which was fresh, herby with fennel oil, warm from some chilli & full of prawns. I had the duck linguini which was totally unctuous, rich and very more-ish. My wife opted for the ribeye steak with triple cooked chips & some veg. All were cooked perfectly. I had duck breast with duck wonton & dauphinois potatoes. Whilst my wife’s steak was perfect, the duck main was on another level. Perfectly pink & so very tasty. The accompanying wonton were such a different taste too, and the pastry so crispy. Everything was seasoned perfectly. We ended our meal with two very tasty deserts, coffee & a cocktail. The cost was very fair for the quality of food, which I can only describe as exceptionally good. I don’t think we have had as tasty a meal in ages and will definitely be back.

Visited for dinner on Friday evening 10th Nov. Excellent main meals. I had Pork Belly which was very good but came alive when I asked for a little extra Jus. Mrs W had duck breast which she said was scrumptous. Desserts were Panacotta and cheesecake. Small but perfectly adequate and a perfect conclusion to a great meal. We'd happily recommend this restauraunt to anyone for dinner or indeed lunch. Well done Fontana!

It's all excellent, if you are near Holywood in Belfast you are not to miss out on a glorious opportunity to experience food cooked and served at its best. The cost of the 3 course set we had was 3 0 Pounds each. The ingredients used were fresh and portions genorous. The atmosphere in the restaurant was like bubbles in champagne. The artwork interesting. All the staff were friendly and accommodating. 10 out of 10 from me and I am a fuss pot when it comes to food.

Fontana’s crown jewel is its staff, I think it’s the most impressed I’ve been in a long time with a restaurant’s service. A beautiful restaurant with brilliant staff that would be fitting for any of the best restaurants across the country. We have been here a few times and tried a couple of different dishes now and the two that really stand out are the sirloin steak (beautifully tasty) and the chicken and satay spring rolls (absolutely delicious). Fontana understands its target market and flawlessly caters to their preferences, evident in its impeccable design and captivating atmosphere. It's worth mentioning that Fontana exudes an upscale fine dining vibe, reflected in its relatively higher prices. To truly appreciate the value for your money here a customer will need to be prepared to spend a higher sum of money so I recommend booking a table and indulging in a leisurely meal to savor the complete experience.

A really good eating out experience starts as soon as you walk into the restaurant, and the warm welcome we received on going into Fontana set the standard for our night. The starters were delicious, the salt chili squid was crisp with just the right amount of heat. The prawn risotto tasty and with the rice cooked perfectly. The attention of the staff coupled with their knowledge and friendly engagement added to the enjoyment. The wines by the glass were delicious. Value is relative and we were more than happy to pay a reasonable bill for a great evening out.

Holding high hopes for a decent experience I was blown away by the service, food and welcoming atmosphere created by the staff.

As a regular at Fontana, I thought that it was time I repaid them with a well deserved review.I Attended last Friday with my kids and was accommodated without a booking by the lovely Elaine.We all ordered of the set menu, having pulled pork brushetta, goat cheese with butternut squash, followed by curried monkfish and gnocchi with parmesan cheese. We added a couple of sides and a bottle of sauvignon blanc. The whole thing came to £115, less than 40 quid per head. Best restaurant and best value in Holywood, we are fortunate to have it.

My family and I are regulars at Fontana’s and I’ve been going there for more than 15 years (only 22). Fontana is the best restaurant in Holywood and competes with the best in Belfast (personally prefer Holywood to the city centre).Eileen and the staff always make us feel at home and are very attentive. This is the cherry on the top, and brings the whole experience together.I’ve not had a bad meal here, with the last one always topping the previous one. Personal favourites consist off; lobster corquil, prawn risotto, monkfish curry, duck and raspberry due, goat cheese fritters. And countless others.Last time we went was Friday 17th Jan. Eileen was able to squeeze us in on short notice and get us table 5 (best table in the house). We opted for the 2 course set price £21.50 (can’t beat it). I opted for a new starter. roasted butternut squash with whipped goats cheese- I can only describe it has divine. As main I got the monkfish curry with pak choi. The curry has a kick of flavour and spice but is perfectly balanced with coconut making it light and flavourful. To end the evening we got the warm apple and cinnamon pie, it speaks for itself and a perfect way to end the evening.If you’re looking for the perfect lunch/ dinner spot, look no further. There’s no wonder how this place has got a Michelin guide. It consistently creates a gastronomical experience every time.

We were four couples out for dinner mid-December 2019 ... small portions, overpriced, a case of style over substance Im afraid e.g. my husband and I had Turbot for main course, it was the tiniest thin tail piece of Turbot resting on greasy vegetables £27, my husband said it looked like 'a rasher of Turbot'. A starter of one scallop, half a baby potato and a smear of puree, said Scallops plural on menu, it all just seemed to lack imagination and skill; the service was slow, our waitress did try her very best, she was under pressure,I did mention to her very quietly of our dissatisfaction; Dinner was £160.00 per couple including wine and only one person of the eight had a pudding! I have had many spectacular meals in Ox and Muddlers both Michelin star restaurants for less. Im sorry Fontana, I wanted my experience there to be better.

I had been many years before but I was curious if it was still as good. Iced water was served flavoured with fruit , and there was a Christmas a la carte menu. There were so many appealing dishes on the menu that it took some tome to decide. The starters were both excellent and my partner was already impressed with the venue. I had traditional turkey for main course , most unlike me , but I can honestly say it was the tastiest turkey dinner I have ever experienced. Sprouts were perfect , turkey was moist etc. I even opted for a dessert and again wasn’t disappointed. Staff were friendly and attentive and I would definitely go back !Thanks Fontana

Terrific food and service. Would certainly return. Would be advised to make reservations at busier times. Only drawback back is that restaurant is located on second floor and might not be accessible for the elderly or infirm. Having said that a 94 year old member of our party made it up the stairs with a little assistance and time. Amazing what a good appetite can overcome.

Even our local guests had not previously tried this restaurant so we acted as the guinea pigs. The entrance, décor and furnishings could best be described as "homely" at worst slightly downtrodden. Nevertheless the restaurant recently celebrated its 20th anniversary so it clearly has followers, In the evening there is a choice of A La Carte or Set Menu midweek and both the range and sophistication of the dishes was impressive for High Street, Holywood.I started with Lobster Coquille, fennel, chilli, beurre blanc, breadcrumbs and parmesan (£10.00) which seems a lot of ingredients to cram onto an upturned shell but the flavour and texture were really good even though one suspects the amount of lobster was small. For the main course, I chose Mustard & herb crusted rack of lamb, dauphinoise potatoes, roast beets and red wine jus (£23.50) with the meat served pink unless otherwise requested. The lamb was perfectly cooked, tender and offset with the crunchy crust. No desert for me although my wife's Apple & Blackberry crumble with homemade vanilla ice cream looked and tasted delicious.All four of us were unanimously delighted with Fontana for its surprisingly good food. Recommended and I am sure another 20 years is possible.

I use Fontana regularly, but I'm a little lazy about posting reviews, preferring to post about excellent restaurants when I'm travelling - but Fontana deserves more, more reviews and more accolades as it matches and sometimes exceeds all those restaurants I've relied in the past. My wife and I called last Saturday without a booking and were accommodated at a lovely table at the back of the restaurant. Service was attentive and very warm and friendly. Our menu choice included lots of fish, meat and vegetarian options and we both loved all we were served. I have to give special mentions to my starter though - Fois Gras with pickled blackberry and ginger - it was simply stunning. I will return to Fontana - and write more reviews; we are lucky to have such a culinary delight in North Down.

I am astounded, surprised and very very happy to say that this was absolutely the very finest steak I have ever had!!! It was absolutely beautiful!!

I was fortunate to be invited to lunch on what appeared to be one of their busiest days of the year. At no time was this reflected in the service or standard of food. The team at Fontana are professional, warm and only to pleased to accommodate your requests. The non alcoholic warm cider was a welcome addition to their delicious Christmas menu. The food was imaginative with a variety of ingredients which I am certain is what gives it a Michelin BibGourmand, year after year. It has also just won best restaurant of the year, no easy feat when so many new establishments are opening across town.

It's been completely refurbished with new slides etc. It really is a fantastic looking kids park. My 2 year old loves it, plenty of things to do.

I absolutely love this place! Food is always 10/10 , huge portion size , flavoursome and fresh! I love the burrito box and the beef burgers are out of this world. The people that work there are lovely! Great place and Is my favourite go-to takeaway!

We decided to call as we had not been in for about 30 years and were very pleasantly surprised. Although we only called for a drink the place was buzzing. The staff were polite, helpful and very friendly. On checking the menu it seemed to cater for everyone. Large dining area at the rear. Will definitely call again.
