We’re only a short walk to the main shopping area and a 10 minute walk to the Titanic Belfast. We opened in 2019 and replaced the Four Corners restaurant which occupied the site since the Waring Street hotel opened in 2008.

So just let us know if you have any questions, even if it’s about Belfast itself, and we’ll be happy to make recommendations for your visit.

Chef’s choice

Our main chef, recommends our Spiral cut fillet. Created by spiral cutting the fillet and marinating in garlic and parsley for 24 hours for tenderness and flavour, the Spiral Cut Fillet is served with beef dripping triple-cooked chunky chips and a flavourful chimichurri sauce.

Chef’s choice home recipe

Here are some top tips to recreate the magic of our expertly cooked steak at home:

● An hour before you cook, remove the steak from the fridge and allow it to reach room temperature. Rub with oil and add a good pinch of sea salt and black pepper.

● Add your steaks to your pan or barbecue, making sure it’s really hot. Remember to turn half way through cooking so that the meat will caramelise beautifully and evenly, leaving a delicious crust.

● The cooking time will vary depending on how you like your steak cooked - 6 minutes should give you the perfect medium rare.

● Once cooked to your liking, let the steak rest for a couple of minutes before serving with the sides and steak sauce of your choice.

● If you fancy a twist, marinate overnight in blended garlic, parsley and oil to give an added flavour boost.
