I was so impressed with the professionalism of Chubby Cherub Deli. Definitely gave us peace of mind that for such a large order to cater for 60 people and deliver on time with everything perfectly labelled and nicely presented. Even last minute changes and adding to our order was not a problem. The food was delicious especially the Chubbysinis! If you want something a bit different and with a touch of class for your corporate lunch you can't go wrong and are in good hands! Thank you so much!

Mediocre food, Abhorrent management April 2025 Many a time did we spend whilst dating in their smaller restaurant and now married we were pleasantly surprised to get a gift voucher for their now new, larger establishment from family and hoped it hadnt changed …….. The food is OK at best and as I looked around the restaurant I could see in pretty much every other diners faces it was just food and nothing worth coming back for . We had mozzarella sticks which where poor with a flavourless dipping sauce, a burratta with sliced tomato ( the flavourless tomato you buy in a supermarket) and a Dragon bread with Nduja ( that really was poor and lacked any heat nor in fact Ndujaa) I can almost live with bad food and not come back again however when we booked the restaurant they charged us £20 booking fee which I can understand if you don’t show up but we did and as the food wasn’t good we stopped at the 3 starters and just asked for the bill . We where told we have to take our booking deposit as a voucher again even though I politely explained I didn’t enjoy their now mediocre faire and after almost a shouting match from the management I ended up just getting up and walking out . I did hear her say she would refund it though and although livid I still don’t see it on my credit card as a refund …….im sure it’s ON THE WAY. All in all my worst dining experience in a very long time and if your looking authentic Italian I’d look elsewhere

Lovely little restaurant with a nice atmosphere. The food was good but service to begin with was quite slow. We were shown to our table and not asked for a drink order until 20 minutes later. The restaurant was busy, once it settled down the service was much better and staff were friendly and approachable. The tiramisu was delicious! 😄

Lovely little gem of a restaurant in Belfast City. Decor was amazing 🤩 food delicious 😋 and great friendly staff. Food delivered fats and extremely hot even the plate was piping hot, Carbonara was delicious. Finished off with a hot drink and mini dessert. I opted for hot chocolate drink with a mini Tiramisu which was just devine.

Food was alright but I’ve never felt so rushed to eat a meal in my life. I understand needing to give the table back, we were booked for 7pm which we were on time for but our order wasn’t placed until half. When the food came out I was asked if I was finished by a member of staff about 3 times when I clearly wasn’t finished. Staff proceeded to come round and stare at us and hover around us. The whole situation was extremely uncomfortable. I left about 2 slices of my pizza which I was going to ask to be boxed up and the staff without asking just started stacking plates in seconds of the two slices. I understand Saturdays are busy but we had our table until 8:45pm we had our plates cleared within 40 minutes and our bill was essentially thrown at us after we looked at the dessert menus. I don’t ever leave reviews for restaurants because I worked in hospitality for many years and understand what busy nights are like but I’ve never made customers who are paying feel like they’ve to rush their food. Definitely need to speak to your staff about hovering over your customers when they’re eating. Made us feel so uncomfortable and looking at some other reviews this seems to be a regular occurrence.

Service was good , atmosphere was really nice and the carne pollo pizza was delicious to be fair , cocktails were good and aracini was good but the prawn, crab and nduja was such a massive let down that I can't give above 2 stars. There were no chunks of crab and nduja, it was more like tiny pieces of them scattered sparsely throughout the sauce and the prawns were rubbery and really didn't live up to the standard of any other restaurants we have been to in Belfast or to be honest, anywhere else in the world. I have heard so many good reviews about this place and if all you're going for is pizza maybe that's okay, but I don't think we could have been more disappointed in the prawn nduja and crab pasta. It also wasn't cheap, a service charge being added for a table of 2 people seems ridiculous.

We liked it. We were a late walk in and they accommodated us, even though they were busy. This meant we ended up sat behind a curtain by the bar. So we did get forgotten a little, but we wasn't in a rush & found it amusing... even when I got a knock on the head as one of the staff tried to open the curtain to get from behind the bar. Food was really nice & prices were good. Staff were friendly too.

I don’t usually give reviews but the service here was just atrocious. When my friends and I went through the menu, the waitress kept approaching us and feels like rushing us to place order, beyond just checking it on customers. We had clarified that we wish to have a dish for sharing, but the waitress kept confirming if we want to add order, even though we had refused for few times. They frequently ask us if they could keep the plates when we even haven’t finish our dish. The most annoying part is, when we want to order dessert, the manager straight up told us, “you could not have dessert, and you have to leave in 10 minutes as there is reservation”without telling us about it before we were seated. It totally spoiled our moods and made us uncomfortable overall. Also, they didn’t even state in the menu or anywhere that they will be charging us additional VAT and service tax. And it’s not worth the price for the quality of the taste.

I've been coming here for years, it used to be my favourite restaurant. They have changed the pizza base to sourdough and I really wish they hadn't. It is definitely not as nice. It would be good to have the option, but now it is sourdough only.

When I first walked into this place, the first thing that piqued my interest was the smell of fresh bread/pizza. It didn't take long for me to decide that I wanted to eat pizza. And I'm so glad I did! The dough was so crispy and smelled heavenly, and the goats cheese is a must have!! My partner ordered the vegan risotto and enjoyed it very much. Our waitress was very friendly, and even offered us 2 small portions of tiramisu at the end of our meal! I was afraid it would be too creamy or overly sweet, but they actually struck a balance perfectly, and so we ate the whole thing despite already being stuffed from the main meal.

We visited on 30 December 2024. When we ordered our drinks and water for the table, we were asked to order the food as well. We assumed this meant the food might take a while. Our main courses came pretty quickly BEFORE our starters! Our drinks - not even the water - did not appear until we were half way through despite asking about them several times - and even then they did not come together. Our enquiries were met with a shrug and we were told there was only one person working on the bar. Firstly, that was not OUR fault and secondly, why were we asked to order the food immediately if that was the case? Clearly there was zero coordination between the kitchen/bar staff/servers. All in all, a huge disappointment.

A family visit here was one of the worst meals each of us has ever had. Every single dish was disappointing, the wine menu was abismal and even the most expensive bottles were undrinkable - as were the margaritas, which we sent back. Will never return and one of the most awful restaurants in which we have had the misfortune of dining - extremely overpriced, given the poor quality of every aspect.

Terrible from start to finish…should have listened to other reviewers. Everything advertised on their facebook was not available, only at their other branch even though none of the posts said this. Staff were rude and the menu wasn’t great. Overpriced and over charged…£100 for two mains and two drinks. Drinks menu is like a book with the name and price on each page very annoying when trying to decide what you want. Prices advertised didn’t include VAT which I think is illegal, 20% added to bill for drinks at the end. Also when booking online they charge you £10 per person so make sure they take this off the bill!! Because they didn’t for us and were rude when we rang up to see why our card was charged. Will not be back!

Bit disappointed with what I seen yesterday with respects to the service. Watched a server sit and eat with an off duty staff member. Which was fine nothing much to worry about. They proceeded to go to the hatch lift parmesan shavings from a dish eat them set the dish down, while another member of staff then served it to me. Besides the fact I didn't eat it but to do it from a paying customers dish, while also in front of the guests is a bit much. Never had a bad experience but given that happens with foh staff you'd question what the boh is like.

I attended with a friend on Saturday 16th with a friend while in Belfast. We booked ahead of time on the website as Belfast was busy that day and we used it as a precautionary measure. We were charged £10 each as a deposit which came out of my account, I thought this was ok as it solves no show and thought as stated on the website that this would be comped from the bill at final payment. That was wrong. My friend and I calculated when we were first ordering that we would be spending £50 on 2 mains and 2 desserts as well as 2 soft drinks. When we got the bill, it was £62 due to hidden service and food charges that were not stated to begin with. When we were paying, the server asked if we had made an online booking whereby I replied yes as I know the money came out of my account. She then proceeded to walk way and talk to people for a few minutes before coming back and not taking anything off the bill! So in theory I lost £30 in hidden charges, which is nearly half the bill. After this, we had to leave due to time constraints, so I emailed the restaurant swiftly which I received nothing back but an email asking to book again. Disgraceful. The situation has not been rectified as I am writing this review which I was hesitant to make as the food was delicious but after reading other people’s reviews, people are having the exact same issue which is to no avail.

They charged us £10 for the service, what service? He came to take command and that's it. I wish I had gone to McDonald's

I visited here with two friends a few days ago for dinner and thoroughly enjoyed it. We had booked and paid the £30 fee to secure the table. This fee is then taken off of your bill. The food was excellent, from starter to desert it was excellent. Service was very efficient and helpful even though it was really busy. The staff are very pleasant and helpful. The only slight issue is that even with three people at a table for four the tables are very small and cramped. It really is a bit of an issue but I wouldn't let it deter you from trying this restaurant. The food is great, prices reasonable and location is very convenient. I'd highly recommend this restaurant and I will return in the future.

Arrived last night with a prebooked table. We got sat and it felt as if the service didn't want us there, very much felt brushed off. The menu leaves much to be desired,with the descriptions lacking what the meals actually consist of. I got a main dish ceasar salad, which was not only a starter size, but the chicken was dry and chewy. The tales around us which came in after were served before us, and with a lot more gusto. Not only was I disappointed by the dish, the service was lacking in every area. The bull came with a service charge pre set, if it were my choice I would not have left one, our server brushed us off and clearly did not want to deal with us. We had to ask for a drinks menu and to place our order because we were waiting for someone to come over. As for the atmosphere, the decor may have been the best part in my opinion. It left a lot to be desired, especially for a 4 star frankly overpriced menu.

We arrived last night for a main course and a round of cocktails. It was certainly a strange atmosphere, a couple who were seated after our table had their orders taken before us. They also were given a drinks menu with the regular menus, whereas we had to ask for one. When we did ask the waitress did not seem to want to help us, and nearly threw it onto our table. The food was subpar. The chicken in the Caesar salad was dry, the pancetta was overcooked and overall the food was not good value for our money. There was also items not advertised in the menu in the dish. The cocktails were lovely, we cant fault those. Very original and different cocktails along with the classics. The service was shockingly bad. We do not know if it was because we were young, or if it was because of our accent but the waitresses were inattentive and unbothered with helping us. We always had to get their attention rather than them asking if we needed anything. Final point was an eight pound service charge was added to our bill, which we were not happy to have to pay. We did not feel that the service matched the charge we were expected to pay. We were only a table of three, I do not understand why a charge was placed on our table. The decor was lovely, very warm and beautiful, thats the best I can say about our evening here.

We left hungry and disappointed. Unfortunately the menu descriptions weren’t very clear which meant we ended up something different to what we had expected. The vegan “spaghetti” was just spiralised vegetables and the polenta “fries” were more like thick goujons. The value for money wasn’t really there either as the portions were quite small and topped up with rocket leaves. We were offered some chocolates upon leaving which we politely declined as we can’t have dairy to which the hostess replied “They are vegan… I think”.

Staff are very good, friendly and attentive but not over bearing. Food is good. Would happily recommend Chubby Cherub.

Disappointing. We were greeted in a cold and rude manner, being asked if we had a reservation, without a hello or a friendly smile. Once our drinks arrived the waitress abruptly asked “who’s is this”- which my friend and I took to be very rude. The food was also disappointing. My friend and I ordered a pizza which was extremely greasy to the point we didn’t want to finish eating it. Throughout our experience in the restaurant we were made to feel very unwelcome, until we were leaving. However, we loved the interior, very unique!! We also thought the images of the drinks in the menu was a great idea. Overall, due to the negative attitude from the staff, I don’t think we will be back soon.

Met with family on Saturday and had a great lunch. Everyone’s food looked and tasted delicious. I particularly enjoyed as I was able to order a gluten free pizza which was superb. I also was able to have the panne cotta which was one of the best I have had. Reasonably priced, good service. All in all a very positive experience.

Really great atmosphere and the food is incredible mostly. The only thing that lets it down is the desserts in my opinion.

Came here with our two kids for dinner on Day 1 of our Belfast visit. We loved it so much that we came back for dinner on the second day. Staff is excellent and very welcoming. Decor is gorgeous and atmosphere equally lovely. There is a nice little buzz in the place at dinner time. Food is absolutely gorgeous, from the starters to the pizza to the pasta and desserts. Everything was incredibly delicious and impeccably presented. Thank you for making dinner one of the highlights of our Belfast trip!

We had the Caprese starter - BEST Mozarella I have had in a year. Creamy, smooth, incredible. We had the Carbonara and the Meatball Linguine - both were exquisite! The flavours were incredible, fresh - best meal we had in Belfast!

Ordered a takeaway for the 3rd time now. The food is always very good. Though I have to say I definitely prefer the chunky chips over their skinny fries that they used to serve in their Nicos Chips. Bring back the chunky chips please!

Solía ir mucho. Pero cuanto más visitamos varias regiones de Italia visitamos villa italiana menos Decidimos intentarlo No sorprendió que tuviera morsetti de pollo para empezar. Bueno, pero tenía mortadela para el plato principal no creo que tenía cebolla. No es genial sé que nunca mezclan la pasta con salsa pero no me gustó. El vino tinto sabía bien Tal vez mi gusto pero he probado lingüini bolognaise por toda Italia. Y lo he hecho yo mismo. No sé cómo sobreviven. Con tal comida No volveré
