Top Blade has been on my to go list for quite some time, and recently I have finally got time to go, but the experience was disappointing and underwhelming. 1) temperature of food - I do understand that steaks are rested to enhance flavour and texture, but my steak was below acceptable temperature - it was below warm, not cold, but definitely not how it should be served to customer. My pepper sauce was the same and the only thing that was hot was my potato fries and mac and cheese 2) Timing - After my steak was served, there has been no sign of my pepper sauce nor did the waiters mentioned anything about it. I was 1/3 into my steak when the pepper sauce was served. 3) Details - my fork was missing hence didn’t checked the table beforehand, there was no salt or pepper on the table initially as well 4) Quality & price - might as well just get a steak from M&S and make it yourself. For drinks - Coke Zero , I think it was 330ml slightly more or less and it costed £2.80. The experience was certainly disappointing, and my boyfriend and I just ended up going to Mackle’s ice cream to cheer ourselves up as we just figured that dessert might just be as disappointing as mains and side. Overall- The style/theme of restaurant does not match the price of food. There were few younger staff on the day, and I was sat at a table where they were the only one that I could spot or ask for help, but they were just having their own conversation around the bar. Will I go back ? Probably not Would I recommend to friends? No

I’ll keep this simple. Very nice food, awful service. Staff not particularly friendly, and we were shooed out before we could even order a dessert. Not the pleasant and relaxing experience you’d expect for the prices being charged.

Very expensive yet mediocre steak for a restaurant specialising in only steak it was disappointing. I've had A5 wagyu before and this was no where near as good. The Douro was lovely. The vibe is industrial, doesn't match the price tag.

The food is ok but however the quality of meat was a bit of a let down for me. The top blade steak was actually the best out of the steaks we tried and it was the one that seemed to have been given the most attention. The sauces were packet sauces rather that freshly made, I liked the gravy the most. I enjoyed the creamed spinach and the chips were good. They were also out of so many items the night we were there, beers on tap, desserts. Overall not sure would I return buy if I did it would probably be only for the top blade steak.

Hands down the worst steak I’ve ever had. Steak was small, chewy, overcooked. The first time in my life I have ever not finished a steak. I would have told the server that it was poor but they never asked, either during or after the meal (I think everyone who works there knows it’s bad). Avoid.

After all the comments ,,MAY I ADD TO THIS POST THERE WAS A LARGE SUM OF MONEY LEFT IN THE PURSE WHEN I GOT IT BACK !!

We were sat on a very small table having ,” lite bites” because they’re not called starters , only started and the waiter brought our steaks , I asked to take them back because we were still eating, he did so but returned 5 minutes later and said the kitchen ordered him to bring them to our table !! It’s impossible to relax over a bottle of wine and a meal because the staff are in a hurry to get rid of you , no point speaking to the manager because he is very abrupt and rude ..we had only just sat down at 16.40 and were immediately told the table had to be free by 18.00 only we had a voucher we’d have left definitely not the same topblade we used to dine in

Overall, it was a pleasant experience. While the steak was satisfactory, I’ve honestly had better steaks at chain restaurants in the US. The side dishes, however, were exceptional, with the macaroni and cheese and tobacco onions standing out as particularly delightful. The service was excellent, with a very attentive and courteous waiter, and the mixed drinks were expertly prepared and enjoyable. The atmosphere was agreeable, though the restaurant’s compact size made the seating arrangement feel a bit close, requiring some care to avoid bumping into neighboring diners. Bathrooms were very dirty, for what it’s worth.

What can I say… an outstanding steak cooked to perfection. We had mushroom and peppercorn sauce, side of mushrooms, green beans with bacon, skin on fries and garlic chips. Then crunchie cheesecake to finish it off. All perfect…what a meal. A top restaurant and a must if you like your steak. Good value for money and service was good 👍🏻 one of our favourite restaurants.

This has been on our go-to for a very long time,loads of people had been recommending it to us,so with a birthday to celebrate what better time to book a table and get down to try out one of their popular steaks, after being advised by our very knowledgeable and attentive server we opted for the 3 course deal.. Starter/Steak/Dessert..plus onion rings and chunky chips with gravy and peppercorn sauce, Garlic mushrooms were the starter, lovely, fresh and tasty,when it came to the steaks I got it medium and my dining partner was worried they wouldn't cook it well done to her liking but that wasn't a problem and when they came out, absolutely perfect in our opinion,just beautifully cooked for both of us,my partner had the chocolate brownie dessert and I had the biscoff..not pictured..to be fair all the food was amazing,the minus one star was because there just wasn't enough of it,the steaks were small,you knew after a few drinks later on you were getting something to eat before you went home,but Top Blade for a night out if you really want to go is definitely worth it for a beautiful steak of all cuts,highly recommended.

Was expecting quality and instead got a run down restaurant with broken dirty/disguting toilets and a chef who obviously loves his butter/grease - every single side and starter was swimming and dripping with grease. The deep fried mushrooms were so dark it was clear that the oil hasnt been changed in a long time. The 'wagyu' fillet was questionable as to its authenticity, but will give benefit of doubt that it was maybe poor/cheap quality wagyu and not just an overpriced steak fillet bathed in butter. Very disappointing visit and would recommend avoiding. Extra bonus - cocktails are probably the worst you could find in Belfast.

I recommend it with one minus! Delicious food, dishes served at a devastatingly fast pace, a steak like I've never eaten before. I have never had a medium raw steak cooked so well. Delicious dessert, cheesecake with cookie icing. the downside is that we were served by two waiters. From one, I ordered a 3-course offer at a promotional price, which included a starter, main course and dessert. the first waiter took the order for the appetizer and main course and informed us that he would come for dessert later. The second waitress asked about dessert. Unfortunately my bill included a set and dessert, which was £8 more. It's my mistake that I didn't notice, but you have to be careful if there are several waiters serving at one table.

Extortionate for what it is. £105 for two mains and a drink each. Asked what way you'd like your steak then it comes the opposite. Waited 40 minutes on food, tiny tables and service wasn't great apart from one member of staff. Wouldn't recommend.

Sent steak back as it was cold. Steak was 50% fat. Awful. Advertise themselves as a steak house. Served on a platter that had residue on the inside. Starter plates not cleared before mains were served. Definitely not value for money. Avoid.

We came as 6 couples while on a weekend away in Belfast. The food was really good and everyone in the group really liked it here. Different people in the group went for different things, I personally went for the set menu which was a starter, main & side and pudding for just over £30. I felt this was good value for money and if ever visiting Belfast again I will come back.

We called here for food on a Monday night and were looked after by the lovely Mairead. She was excellent, very friendly and helpful, giving us advice about the menu. We both selected the 3 course special menu for £30 which was super value. We shared cheesy garlic bread and garlic mushrooms to start, which were delicious. For mains, my husband upgraded his steak for £4 to the 10oz rump, while I stuck with the 8oz flat iron. Both steaks were excellent and we had sides of fries and tobacco onions, with peppercorn sauce. For dessert we had salted caramel brownie and sticky toffee pudding, both served with ice-cream, again these were delicious. I also can't forget about the fab cocktails which were on offer 2 for £16. A cosmopolitan and pumpkin espresso martini both hit the spot! We would totally recommend trying this restaurant, especially this 3 course meal offer.

Hands down the best steak I have ever had! Juicy, tender and cooked to perfection. The signature gravy was so good with it too, as was melting the chipotle and smoked paprika butter over the top of the meat was so flavourful. Sides were top notch as well, and a little dessert to top it all off. By the end of it we couldn't eat another bite. 10/10

Slow service, waited about 30mins on the starter - the garlic bread was burnt - the mushrooms were cold. We both had the burger - the bun was burnt as was the patty, the full burger was dry and difficult to eat. The tobacco onions were over cooked, the sweet potatoes were tasty… the garlic cubes way under cooked - so disappointed! The sauces … a very small amount for £3 a pop! Don’t bother! The gravy was lovely but the pepper sauce was tasteless and watery. The loo was dirty with cheap Lidl products to ‘enhance’ the experience … for a fairly expensive restaurant… really?! Please do better! Total bill was almost £80 - save your dosh and hit up a Burger King! Such a shame

I did not enjoy my experience at this restaurant. The staff were inattentive, I counted 6 of them chatting amongst themselves behind the bar. The food was ok but overpriced. Our wine although served in a cooler with ice wasn't properly chilled beforehand. We had to send our side dish of mushrooms back as they were cold. You get a better 3 course steak dinner at Belfast Castle for half the price. I would not recommend nor would I return.

Gone down so much, service wasn't great but that was less down to the servers and more down to the fact they only had three of them on, poor things. Sides are so expensive, and honestly not even worth a quarter of what they cost. Everything felt frozen, over or under cooked, underseasoned, gross. For £5 whole per side? Also charging for the sauce and sides when just a steak alone is £25? Go to Darcy's or something and get yourself a full meal for under that price. Thankfully steaks were well cooked and nice, but again not worth the price. They also serve it to you on a tiny cutting board so it's difficult to eat. Place was SO LOUD, they turned the music up uncomfortably loud for a birthday song (naff in itself, dont punish all of us lol) and it didn't really go back down again. Felt like it was going for a club vibe, but it was giving dead Wetherspoons on a sunday. Overall would never go back, shame as it was a nice place to go a year or two ago. And hire more staff dear lord.

Impromptu date night. Wouldn't normally choose a "steak house" as such, but really enjoyed our visit. The reason I'm giving 5 stars is for two reasons. My fillet steak was cooked to perfection. The sides were average, but the steak was just so great! Secondly, our server, Jean Kira, was so lovely. She really made our night to be honest. She was attentive, yet not overly so. Always there in the background if we needed something. But never too much and distracting. I think I'll return, and will look forward to it!

Birthday party failure. I organised a small gathering for a 21st birthday and our experience wasn’t up to the standard that I would’ve expected from Top Blade. The waiting staff were friendly but not attentive. The starters were wrong, that’s fine, they were replaced. When we were mid way through starters, the steak arrived and we were told that it was ‘just the way it was’.. The waitress did apologise for bringing the mains while we were mid starter but, we were sat with a table full of food that was going cold. We did feel rushed to get out. It set the tone for the whole party… super disappointing.. The T bone steak was not good. I’ve never had a chewy steak like it. It was not rested. My steak knife would not cut through it, even after several tries. Overall, It was not a good experience for our party, I was embarrassed as the organiser so I paid the bill and left early as everyone felt uncomfortable. The Cocktails were good, We had 2 each. The overall experience was not.. I’m not a negative reviewer however on this occasion and because it was my son’s 21st birthday party, I felt it is justified. Please do better….

I recently visited Top Blade for a special celebration—my twin boys' 16th birthday—and unfortunately, the experience was far from what we had hoped for. Despite booking well in advance, we were seated right at the front door, in what felt like a waiting area hastily furnished with tables. This section was completely isolated from the main restaurant, which really dampened the atmosphere. Upon expressing our dissatisfaction, the manager dismissed our concerns, insisting that this was our designated seating. We weren't the only ones unhappy—two other couples seated in the same area also voiced their displeasure, but nothing was done to address the situation. The service was disappointing as well. We ordered a sharing platter for starters, but it arrived without plates to share the food. After asking twice, we finally received plates, but by then, the food was half-eaten, and the plates were wet. It felt like the area we were in was neglected, with no dedicated waiter attending to us. To add to our frustration, when our main courses were served, we had to ask for basic items like salt and condiments. While the food was generally fine, the overall experience was disappointing, and it became increasingly clear that our seating arrangement was a significant issue. We had called ahead to inform the restaurant that this was a special occasion, and were assured that something special would be arranged for dessert. However, due to the poor service and atmosphere, we opted not to order dessert at all. When it came time to pay, I reiterated our concerns to the manager, who then admitted that the area we were seated in was formerly used as the waiting area. He acknowledged that this seating arrangement had been a recurring problem and that it had been brought to the attention of the owners multiple times without any action being taken. We emailed the restaurant a couple of times after the visit to express our disappointment further, but unfortunately, we have yet to receive a reply. This lack of response only adds to our frustration and disappointment. I sincerely hope that the management takes these concerns seriously and addresses the issues at hand. I would not want anyone else to experience what we did, especially on such an important occasion.

Went for my partners birthday and was severely disappointed. Rowdy customers and at best mediocre food. The 3 courses for £30 are a take on with the quality of steak really lacking.

Definitely more 3.5 than 3, we had a mixture of burgers and steaks, the beef burger was good but could have been maybe a bit pink in the middle, the steak was well cooked and tender but it didn't have any flavour. The service was great though the crew were super friendly and couldn't do enough

The service wasn’t great at all as the waiter we had never checked how meal was, glasses sat empty without asking for anymore drinks and no one wanted to give us a bill or even take the money for it. Sadly not a great experience compared to other restaurants in close proximity

Steaks are highly overpriced... everything has to be paid extra, such as fries, veges or even sauce for +3-5 euro each. We decided to order 4 burgers, but we've been told that there are only 3 left even tough the restaurant is open for few more hours which was unprofessional, especially after we ordered drinks already.

Visited Belfast in June and came here for dinner one night. Was not able to get a table the night before but for the 2nd time came earlier to get a booking then came back at the appointed time. Nice atmosphere here and the staff were friendly. The steaks were very well cooked. Only issue was the signature gravy was too salty. Also first time had the Forged Stout. It's as good as Guinness.

Recent family meal - Party of 8. Waited a couple of minutes for our table (booked). Service was excellent. All meals arrived at the same time & were delicious. We all ate from the 3 for £30 menu...steaks were wonderful! Highly recommended.

Had the privilege of being asked to dine here, and not disappointed. From starters to dessert it was a fantastic meal. The steaks of which were fillets, from 8oz to 12oz, were perfectly cooked. Tender and a delight to experience. Staff really go the extra mile, as everything was top notch.

Wednesday 10th July reservation at 7.30pm ordered our drinks and food. By 8.15pm we still hadn’t had our food. We had finished our drinks, other people who came in after us had their starters and mains. There were staff members working, but the guys behind the bar were watching the euros on someone’s phone and that was more important apparently. 50 minutes went by and my partner asked if we could just pay for the drinks and leave. The guys were confused and didn’t even know what table we were at. The manager in the red top went into the kitchen to see where our food was and they told us our food never was put into the kitchen. We asked what had happened to our order, and the manager said “we have a new staff member and she didn’t put it in”. A male took our order and they tried to blame it on the young girl who was the only person working! She took our drink order and was the friendliest person there. I’m very disappointed that they couldn’t own up to their mistake and blame a new staff member. When the manager said it was the new staff member, I told him that it wasn’t her who took the order, it was the man who was standing right behind him watching the football. We tried to give them the benefit of the doubt and give them time because they might have been busy but they were only busy watching the euros. They did apologise and give us a bottle of Mionetto Prosecco but we were more looking forward to our steak. Unfortunately we will not be back, we’re very disappointed that they would pass the blame on to someone else who is only new. It doesn’t lead by example. The young girl was very good at her job and was fast and efficient.

Food was ok. Nothing bad but nothing great. Fairly priced. The real stand out of the experience was the waiting staff. They really deserve their tips - busy restaurant. I would definitely give the place another go as I've heard great things

Youngsters served the worst food I’ve ever been presented with. Grease laden inedible portions of food. Particular attention deserved by mushrooms and chunky chips. Steak medium rare was still writhing on the board. Truly awful £30 for 2 scoops of ice cream.

Very poor experience. Food took very long My husband lifted the drinks menu and accidentally spilled my coca cola (no alcohol) we were both totally sober And we were made feel like drunk messes, a wet floor sign beside us and made feel like rubbish. Birthday meal ruined Couldn't get out of restaurant fast enough. My husbands steak not cooked rare as he asked for it Waste of money Will never return.

When dining in what's ment to be a higher end restaurant standards were below average. Mushrooms were ordered never came with the meal. Asked for glass of water towards the end of the meal as heat in the restaurant was uncomfortable to say the least. Also not once did anyone come during our meal to see if everything was okay. To be fair to the chef food was lovely but front of house let this place down badly

Was anxious having read the negative reviews about the time limit pressure but had nothing to worry about. Staff were very attentive, food and drinks delicious and gave shots for wife's birthday and sang happy birthday with her dessert. Highly recommend Top Blade Belfast

Went here for my 30th birthday. have had it planned for months. I knew exactly what I was ordering 6 months before going and I tell you what, it absolutely over-delivered!! Steak was cooked to perfection and so full of flavour, the sides were top notch!! And the dessert was absolutely devine! Have to give a massive shout out to our server for the evening JeanKira! The most lovely person, she made us feel welcome and we really enjoyed her vibe! She even wished me a happy birthday which is always nice! 11/10 on food, atmosphere and staff! Can't wait to come back here

Went for a dinner for my partners birthday this week, and it was just a really poor experience. Although the staff were kind, they were quite inattentive. The food came 45 minutes after we had ordered, and it was truly terrible - I really dislike commenting on others cooking, but how do you forget to add cheese to mac and cheese, it was just a white sauce with no flavour other than flour. The mains were just hastily thrown together and the sides were also small and genuinely just bad, the chips looked like the dregs from the fryer. Presentation was really poor too, for the prices you are paying to food is absolutely not worth it. The cocktail was lovely though!

First time ever at Top Blade tonight, I do really enjoy that the size of the place is small enough to make it a more intimate setting The starters we had were the garlic mushrooms.. they were amazing, the flavours and the texture as well! The mains we both had T-Bone Steaks (cooked blue of course) partner had the sweet potato fries and I had the garlic cubes, sauces were peppercorn sauce and the burnt garlic sauce.. this was one of the NICEST steaks I have ever tasted, cooked to perfection, sides were delicious as well! We will definitely be back!

Without exception the most unpleasant dining/customer service experience I’ve ever had. Extremely rude and aggressive front of house manager. Food was mediocre with terrible and weird club music playing loudly in background. Dire. Do yourself a favour and avoid at all costs.

Ordered a burger, chicken wings and kids meal. The price is not worth the food. I think the oil they use to fry the fries wasn't changed as the one they served has small solid bits and pieces. Its like the one they use to fry their chicken and fries are the same oil and deepfryer. The Burger is too expensive and comparing to McDonald burger I would rather buy the one with McDonalds taste wise. Would not want to go back again and would not recommend.

(Delivery Order) While the food is decent, the service is absolutely pathetic. Deliveries have been consistently terrible and the communication has been sub par. My order was cancelled an hour late, around the time I was expecting the food delivered. This ruins the entire experience as it usually involves a migraine to order from here.
