Very nice clean place in side. Very deceiving from the outside caters for large party’s. We had the starter of nachos. Would of preferred them with the sauce over the nachos. But they were nice reasonable price too would come back.

Mi primera vez para comer aquí y quedé encantado. Buena selección de comida, a un precio muy razonable y sabía delicioso. Ambiente encantador y el servicio fue rápido. No me gusta esperar demasiado mi comida y no me gusta que se sirva fría. Esto no fue un problema aquí

Headed for a family dinner last week and i got the crusted cod. Came very presentable but once i tried it, it was not great. Cod was like rubber, had to have been from frozen. Cod is supposed to be flaky, i needed a steak knife to get through. There was hardly any fish on the plate too, it was bumped up with cheese and breadcrumbs. Would go back because the other food was nice but never will i have the crusted cod again. Do not order it!

Bueno, decidí dárselo hoy, ya que ha pasado mucho tiempo desde que comí allíMenú muy, muy limitado, pero decidí de todos modos probar el lassaigne solo para que me dijeran que no quedaba ninguno. Muy pocos clientes entraron (¡tal vez ocho en un sábado!) Y el ambiente era monótono.No me puede ver volver. Necesitan una mejor opción de menú y un ambiente más. De lo contrario, este lugar se cerrará.

Lo siento, el ícono no puede verme regresar, después de años de venir aquí para almorzar, hoy no fue tan bueno, pedí lo que siempre tenemos chili pitta filete de bolsillo, no había mucho bistec más cebollas, pimientos, esta es la tercera vez esto ha sucedido últimamente, pero siempre dijimos que mejoraría nuevamente, pero lamentablemente no, fue lo suficientemente agradable, pero más bien como un salteado, el personal es genial, muy amable, y la cerveza es buena, no tienen un 50 por ciento de descuento ya solo 30, por lo que el mismo precio que en cualquier otro lugar de la ciudad, perdón por un cambio de sede

Took my mother out tonight as im working mothers day. Our starters were lovely and flavoursim. For main we ordered two 50/50 rump steak and chicken with tobaccos pepper sauce and a side. My steak had a weird taste to it like it was reheated and my chicken dripped in grease. The pepper sauce lacked a peppery taste. It was just a gravy tbh. My partner was served what looked to be frying steak. At the end of our main we advised the table staff or our issues and to be fair they offered us aain taken off the bill. Upon paying they also removed the 2 desserts. In all the only saving grace was the starters where nice. I know that this has changed my opinion and that we wont be back.

I just had about 20 minutes to spare and wanted something light. They said that they only had a lunch menu (it didn't include sandwiches). I had just ordered a drink and sat down, when a staff member asked what sort of sandwich I would have ordered. I told him and he said he would see what he could do. 5 munutes later a delicious sandwich arrived. Top marks!!!

Visitamos un sábado por la noche alrededor de las 8. 30 hs. Contó 18 en el comedor - no está ocupado. La comida estaba bien, pero el servicio no era bueno. Unos cuantos empleados más jóvenes, pero eran agradables y hacían todo lo posible. El personal "más viejo" (4) permaneció alrededor hasta que los comensales pudieron verlo sin prestar atención a los clientes. Muy decepcionante: este era un lugar habitual para nosotros en el pasado, pero ahora hay demasiadas inconsistencias para molestar.

Having been to Altnagelvin Hospital I was looking for somewhere to eat on the Waterside area of Londonderry. Using my sat nav’s restaurant direction we arrived at Icon Restaurant and Winebar. On entering we received a warm welcome, were quickly showed to our seats, drinks provided and order taken. When our meals arrived they were both well presented and well cooked.

Waited another half an hr for starters and a further half hr for r starters to be cleared at which point my daughter was having a melt down. Finally the dinner arrived and was the worst I ever had. My husbands steak was unbeatable was chewy over cooked and fatty my pasta was full of veg barely any steak. We left hungry as non of us ate much

Went here for family meal a girl took the order I asked about getting a boiled potato without milk or butter for a baby as she is ALLERGIC and can't have DAIRY. if not , it's fine . The girl came back and said yes they had boiled potatoe that they use to roast so yes not a problem. Give it out and we fed our 6 month old. Then are order came my chicken was dry and just Luke warm , hubby said his was ok .( menu a lot smaller) Then they came up with a bowl of potatoes as we were nearly finished , they given us the wrong potatoes for the baby , a bit late after we fed her them already and how the chef would come see us himself. The Manger on floor, staff or chef seem unconcerned about how they put a 6 month baby at risk after I stated how she was ALLERIC TO DAIRY, bad enough to chance it with an older child or adult , but at least they can say if they feel unwell. The manger or chef Never came to speak to us or sent an apology to regular customers . So if any allergies don't go here as staff don't care about putting lifes at risk.

Lunch on a Monday everything is half price however its been so overly priced that the half reflects what should be the correct price e.g. fish goujons. £16 but half price.Its basically 2 small battered fish which I couldn't be sure was cod. To be honest it was OK but then so is my local chippy where its 3.50 with a scoop of chipsIts mid price for OK foodUsed to be so much betterThe rosé was mmm great mind you

From start to finish, it was a terrible visit. We had booked a table for " facebook friday". There was no booking recorded. Kids sausage meal came out with under cooked sausages, they were pink inside. Other dinners were just okay. Sauces were cold and garlic chips weren't much hotter. Went to pay bill and the "facebook friday" offer wasnt going to be honoured due to no record of the booking, after pointing out the offer was honoured. The service was very slow as well. Lots of staff about, only one taking orders. The icon/gallery used to be packed every friday night, tonight (16/06/17) it was fairly empty, easy to see why.

We had separate meals of Hake and Salmon fillet, the Hake was supposed to be smoked but we suspect it gave up smoking years ago, the Salmon however was very tasty. Service OK, value for money OK, cleanliness etc OK. Nothing really bad, but nothing really good either.

We booked for 20 people for my daughter's christening and it was off from the start. We said a few times about having a wheelchair and buggy yet we were sat down some steps which resulted on the old woman being carried in her wheelchair which took away her dignity! Then we were split between two tables which has there backs to each other so it was hard to react and Then another big party was sat beside us which made the meal less special. The desert was I'm sad to say awful. The Sunday was one scoop of ice cream and a glass full of cream. Not one person who ordered it out of the 20 enjoyed it. I used to love the icon but feel let down on my daughter's special day.

I've never experienced such genuine customer service in all my travels. The staff chatted away and entertained with classic smiles and humour. When entering we were provided of knowledge of the great deals to offer, today there was an available steak night. Something that did not disappoint. Having the ability to provide a both amazing food and friendly staff, is a credit to this restaurant! Btw the waffles for desert were unrealllllll

Visit here regularly and went with friends at start of the week. We were lucky to get a table after a short wait and enjoyed the delicious Strawberry daiquiris which are great value for money. Was disappointed with the meal, I always order the chilli chicken pitta pocket but I wasn't impressed. The sauce each time I get it is different and on this occasion it was a runny Brown coloured sauce with no taste rather than a chilli sauce and the chicken was quite cold. We only visit on a mon or tues as it's 50% off, def wouldn't pay full price for the meals we have had recently. Hoping it improves back to the delicious food we used to get soon!

When making the booking we explained that we wanted a table next to our large family group who were to dine at the Icon. We were inform that the large group had a table for 12 and a table for 9 booked, so placing us on a table for 3 next to the family would not be a problem. Upon arrival at the Icon we were seated nowhere near the family, my wife explained that we were with the family group and our reservation was on a table next them. It was explained to us that 3 people from the group had cancelled and they had received another booking from another group, so our group was moved. We were informed that 2 phone calls had been made and the seating arrangement were agreed. We made a reservation so we should have been contacted regards the change to our seating. We explain that we wanted to be near the main group as this was what we asked for when booking, we asked to be moved closer to the family, this request was refused, we also offered to move the table closer this request was also turned down. The only thing that was offered was to squeeze us into an already crowded corner, after making a reservation I don't expect to be squeeze in. After all this fuss my wife left the in tears without so much as apology. we managed to rescue the evening with a nice meal and a warm friendly welcome from the staff at the Belfry Country Inn.

Called in on Thursday evening with my husband and daughter, been here many times and always thought it just "ok" alright if you can't be bothered going into town! However Thursday completely changed my opinion. Staff were lovely and we were told they had a steak special on that night, 2 Sirloins, , 2 sides, sauce of your choice and a bottle of wine for £25 per couple! When the steak came it was beautiful, cooked and seasoned to perfection! Having just come back from Spain where good steak houses are in abundance icon was up there with the best of them! I hope this is a regular special as I can't recommend it enough!

two friends and myself have visited the Icon before and had no problems. However last Tuesday was not enjoyable. 2 Louisanna Pepper Steaks, onions, pepper sauce and garlics. Neither steaks were peppered, one was to be medium one medium to well done. One medium was more like almost well done a few bits were slightly pink, the other was well done, dry and had a tuff string of muscle or something going through it which couldn't be cut. The later returned to kitchen. Quite a while later a fresh steak arrived no pepper seasoning at all, and it was rare to medium. My friends had finished theirs despite eating slow. The garlic chips were not pleasant, waxy. Didn't eat it just bits, took steak home for dog. Desserts Stickey Toffee pudding lovely, Strawberry and white chock cheesecake, and Icon Malteeser Desert, sad.The cheesecake was to be served with fresh cream, it didn't it came with strawberry ice cream, which my friend did not like she does not eat ice cream so it was left, the cheesecake was strawberry with white choc baking chips through it. These are supposed to be melted and used to drizzle over dessert not find them here and there through cheesecake, the Icon dessert was overlooked meringue being very hard, and tough inside, a few malteesers almost hidden with icing sugar, and little toffee with ice cream. It's wasn't ate either. Two dessert were not as expected.Service was alright after being seated it took a while for the waitress to give us the menu and then later again she returned for order. Order took quite a while to arrive.We advised a member of staff of the quality of the food, explained what was wrong, I was told it was a young chief working in the kitchen. No excuse, however he did not charge for my steak or my dessert. Charged for the strawberry cheesecake with buttons through it.When we go out for something to eat, it's nice to share the meal together, expect a standard received on other occasions we have been there. It was not an enjoyable evening all because the food served was below par. Alright the Monday and Tuesday nights have reduced prices, however many other restaurants offer similar offers. After complaining, it was just accepted no apologies, just said a young chief was working that night. Staff indeed were busy wiping table clearing plates, but I have seen it busier. We only go out for a meal once a month it's a pity March was a disappointment.Hopefully they get some pepper for their Louisanna Peppered Steak, don't reheat chips and put garlic over them as garlic butter sinks into chips like an oily mess.Not sure if we will return.

We went as a party of 3, my partner, young son and myself on a Tuesday night. Monday and Tuesday are half price nights and we were not disappointed. It is not many places where you can get a full bottle of Italian red wine for around £8.00. We had starters main and one sweet all for under £50.00. The portions were excellent and service was attentive and reasonably fast.I had monkfish , my partner steak and ribs and my son chicken burger. You would not leave hungry.The menu is extensive and should suit all tastes and very reasonable in price especially on the days above. You will need to book though as the word has got around you will not be disappointed!

This was our first visit to this restaurant we went here to have a reunion with old friends and was extremely disappointed. I had fish goujons and garlic potatoes which I could safely say I could have swam in, another person had chicken curry which she said was just ok and chips which must have been cooked and reheated and the other had salmon just ok again and salt and chilli chips which were again cooked and reheated which left them hard. The only good thing about the meal was the wine. Will definitely not be back and will not be recommending it to anyone.

Very disappointed. We ordered our starters and mains. Starters were reasonable however one steak ordered was very grizzly and the ceaser salad has got to be the worst ceaser salad I have ever tasted. The croutons were deep fried in what tasted like fish oil, the lettuce was soggy and the bacon was questionable. Not once was I asked if I needed another drink during both courses.

At icon tonight we sat at a table where the ceiling was leaking right next to us, the seat was soaked as we moved out of the way we decided not to ask to be moved, when we got our order taken the waitress was far from polite and just seemed to want to go home, we ordered drinks which included a jug of water no glass, couldn't get anyone's attention so once our mains came out we got the chance to ask for a glass just one glass was given for the jug on the table, the food was just above warm it was nice edible but not great steak was a little chewy, we would of let our server know but no one came over to check on us and honestly I don't think they would of cared, we asked our clearer to bring sweet menus they didn't even though we were in visibile distance to them waiting, when eventually got the bar man's attention he was the only pleasant server there with a smile, he got us menus and a waitress to take the order who lacked politeness also, when we got our desserts we got no spoons so we used forks of other tables, the desserts were terrible and cold , everyone has left disappointed.

Varied menu with food to suit everyone. Our starters and main courses were so tasty and well presented. Staff were very pleasant and efficient. Lovely friendly atmosphere. Restaurant was very busy and I can understand why. Definitely worth a visit as you will not be disappointed.

I hope to be back soon.

Staff very pleasant. Quick efficient service. Meal good except champ which was really not good....a minor fault but I feel when paying for something it should b satisfactory at least. It was one of those nights when we were all hungry so it made things just that bit more disappointing. Steak was well cooked. So nothing major but still needs high lighted.

My husband and I visited Derry while on our honeymoon. A friend recommended Icon restaurant. They had 50% off on the night we visited which made for a fantastic value for the delicious food we had. They have a great menu for cocktails. The stirfry was delicious. We would definitely eat here again!

I had the opportunity to visit the Icon recently but due to it being busy we were told about 30 minutes and we agreed. I left my wife and her brother there and went to do a message only to be phoned 10 minutes later to say they had a table and to be quick. I told them to go ahead and have their starter and I would be there for the main course. So I got my message done, got back to the restaurant and sat down at the table. We were sitting a good 30 minutes after our main course before anyone came to us for any other orders. We got a desert and was not what the wife had expected. The food was of a good standard and well presented. The value for money was good. The Icon is a busy place and can be quite noisy.

Me and my friend came here for a birthday lunch on a monday, which is 50% off . We wanted to come for dinner but as i had work lunch was only time suited. Was busy on arrival but we got seated very quickly by a very friendly welcoming girl, she took our drinks order and left , we waited about 5 minutes for our order to be taken this was an older women, she simply asked are u ready? She looked as if she didnt want to be there. As this was my dinner at around 1 and was a treat for me and my friend we wanted a starter also. The women didnt seem to happy that i asked could we have a starter but went away to check anyway. We were told we could have a starter anyway. Food was well cooked and enjoyable, service was defiantly slow. For two of us it was only £20 which was great, will defiantly be back just hope staff are more pleasant

We had lunch here recently and pre-ordered due to being short on time. The food was delayed for some unknown reason. I had the fish and there were parts of it that were very hard and inedible- I don't know how. Orders were not prepared as requested and things just seem haphazard.I have eaten here on numerous occasions and as stated it is hit or miss. Due to this latest experience I would be reluctant to return.

Excellent value for money , good quality food portion size very generous. Can be a little noisy as caters very well for families.Due to popularity you may be asked to move to wine bar once your meal is finished,this is not a problem as the bar is very spacious and comfortable.Good place for early dinner at very reasonable price particularly at start of week with 50% off main bill.

I go here quite a lot with family and friends and have never had a bad meal. Most of the staff are friendly and helpful. They do good deals too like their steak nights, on Thursdays I think it is.

Visited Icon Restaurant last evening for meal. Good parking outside and premises were modern and well laid out. We had booked and our table was ready. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable about the food and drink. The service, and quality of food was excellent and reasonably priced.We would highly recommend this restaurant

Been here a few times and had a great experience each time. The food was delicious, and service was fantastic. My son is a chef and thought the food was fantastic. I live in Portstewart and im happy to travel down for a meal anytime.

Derry is full of lovely places to eat. While the Icon is not up there with the best, it's absolutely fine for a nice, reasonably priced meal. They have deals on early in the week too, which make it even cheaper again. If you are looking for a decent feed and don't want to spend too much money it's a good option. Offers all the usual items that you would expect on a Derry menu.

Now, i haven been in a while. But every time i go to this place, it is brilliant, food was once a tad "weird" but it was soon rectified and brought back to perfection..Try the JACK DANIELS SAUCE ;) wont go wrong there.

I genuinely used to like this place a few years back but the standards have gone to the dumps where you wait about 20 minutes to even be acknowledged. Every time I seem to give it another go their always seems to be some issue whether it be the staff or the food, one day I ordered tea, it arrived cold and waited bother further 15 minutes to order, but in the end up we had to get up and leave...even the manager with the grey hair took no notice of us and seriously needs to give staff further training

I had their roast of the day which was turkey and ham. It was served with mashed potatoes, veggies, and stuffing and gravy. I also ordered "Tobacco Onions" which turned out to be french fried onion straws...terrific.My wife had the chicken and ham pie which had a curry flavor and was also very good. All the food we saw served was very good looking. I'm sure you can use the menu as a dart board and not go wrong.

I decided to take my wife out for a surprise meal and I was recommended the ICON in Londonderry. We arrived and got our table, ordered some drinks and our food. The starter camp and it was very nice and we enjoyed it. We sat and waited and waited until my wife got the attention of one of the staff. I didn't say much as my temper was starting to rise. My wife explained what was wrong and we were told our main course would be out shortly, after waiting some time our main course came, and it was hot and very nice. Having to wait 20 minutes between starter and main course is a bit long but I will try this restaurant at another time.

Ate here twice and although great variety on the menu, what you are served is so basic. Would rather do away with the discount and get a bit of side salad or veg on my plate. Food tends to be over cooked and dried out also.

Been in the Icon a number times and I can say it has much improved. Very good menu, excellent choice and the staff are very friendly. Food was excellent and the price paid is the norm for any good restaurant.

Had a nice lunch here today. I was surprised at the range of nice dishes available. I had goat's cheese on flatbread with salad and it was lovely. My daughter had a mango chicken wrap which was ok but it was basically a curry mix and the sauce leaked out onto her clothes. We also had lattes ok but a bit weak needed more coffee. Bill was £14 very reasonable. Pleasant staff and nice to sit outside. The front of the cafe is very bleak and uninviting they should do something about that even put up a cafe sign instead of a sign saying BackOpen. Good toilets with a baby changing area.

No habíamos estado en Rafters durante años después de algunas malas comidas allí, pero tuvimos una buena comida la semana pasada. El menú es muy común pescado y patatas fritas platos de pollo bistecs y pasta, nada especial. La comida sin embargo fue muy buena, compartimos un entrante de alitas de pollo y tuve un solomillo cocinado raro como lo pedí y la hamburguesa de pollo de mi amigo también era bueno. El servicio fue un poco lento pero agradable. Bill para 2 con 1 refresco fue 29. No es el más barato de la ciudad, pero es una buena comida básica.

Great sandwich with fresh bread and generous fillings . The staff could not be more helpful , nothing to much trouble from putting sandwich together to offering to carry the tray.
