Had lunch in Il Pirata with my daughter (17 Jan) The meal was excellent We opted for a variety of the small plates. All delicious. First authentic Italian food I have tasted in Belfast I lived in Sicily for 5 years,it was like being back there again. Service excellent Will be back and have told lots of friends about the restaurant

agree with last poster. Great place on a weekend night, but the quues at the bar…..argh! Bar staff spending 5 mins making one cocktail for women. PLEASE, ring off a cocktail area of the bar and let them queue there for their exotic drinks. Then the rest of us can get served a bit quicker.

Without exagerration its probably the slowest bar in Belfast for getting served.

Nice bar, but for frigs sake do something about the waiting times at the bar. Should have a cocktail area, the waiting time is frankly ridiculous!

It is hardly the barstaffs fault if people keep ordering cocktails, they have to be made and they take time. That place is completely rammed every weekend, and everyone knows that, so if you don’t want to wait at the bar, go somewhere else.

Having seen the bar when it wasnt very busy, space is extremely limited there, so having a cocktail only area would be a terrible idea and would just further congest the bar.

Not impressed with this place to be honest, looks good but that’s about it. Always will the Good Fortune for me I think.

Luigi,

I couldn’t agree with you more. It is so frustrating when you just want a glass of wine and the staff are prancing about posing and making an array of time-consuming cocktails. It is the same set-up as the Apartment. Surely it isn’t rocket-science to have a Cocktail Only area. I also agree that the crowd has become increasingly rough.
