I wasn't very impressed with mchughs, food, it didn't have a very good selection for us personally, my husband is a very plan eater, everything was way to fancy, but I'm sure was lovely to other's, and service was very very a low

Service was good and food good. But, when booking, I had mentioned that I needed Gluten free (gf) options. When I arrived I had to ask about the gf options. I didn't think the options were great, it was all about what I could have "without the...…." Like burgers without the bun, the chips weren't gf because they were fried with other gluten containing foods. So, I ended up having the vegetarian option, which I really didn't enjoy to be honest. My friends however, thoroughly enjoyed their food. But, from my point of view, I wouldn't eat there again because of the lack of gf options.

Hubby loved the fillet on the stone and the sides were all wonderful especially the onion rings. The cheese board was poor, however made up for by the truffle desert.

Dreadful don’t bother. I wanted mussels but was told they sold out earlier in the day. Ordered fish pie as I don’t eat meat. It was potatoe pie couldn’t find any fish except a minuscule of white flakes fish. Complained and it wa taken off the bill but the manager couldn’t be bothered to come and speak to me. Left it to the two waitresses who were lovely, not their problem as I told them. It was really bad. The lamb cutlets were over cooked but didn’t bother to complain that one. I don’t make a habit of complaining but a small bowl of potatoe pie for £12 you’re having a laugh !!

I thought the food was below average. I had the fish pie but it had loads of potato and almost no fish. My friend meal was better. The service was good though...

We were in McHughs on a Monday evening for a business dinner. First issue was that they only had one sirloin steak ... so two people had to order rib eye when the food arrived all three dinners were rib eyes. The one server was not at all friendly and served the meals like a discus thrower. My meal didn't show up until everyone else was finished and the serving staff blamed the kitchen. We couldn't get a second round of drinks until the meal was over, we tried three times to get someone to place a drink order for us. The wait staff said the manager would be over to apologize for the poor service and the late meal (which wasn't worth the wait.) but they never came to the table. My colleague chased them down to voice our complaints and they deducted my meal and took 20% off the bill. I've been here on numerous occasions in the past but haven't been in over a year and it will be my last visit. The bar is nice and the beer is well kept. So my advice is have a beer in the bar and enjoy the feel of the old building and then have dinner at one of the many much better restaurants in Belfast.
