    First time we have visited suitably impressed

    Thanks for the excellent food good wine and friendly staff

    Look forward to our next visit

    Well Done

    Hello My name is Nina Kashleva. I want to congratulate you with the last New Year and wish you peace and kindness you and your family. Prosperity of your business. I want to express my gratitude! Last summer my husband and I were vacationing in your country. We were lucky enough to visit your bar! This is the most wonderful place on earth. We have a very pleasant! Thank you for everything!

    I just wanted to say, I had an absolutely brilliant evening on Saturday – the atmosphere was really really relaxed (Dave Martin Swing and Paddy Walsh really knew how to set the mood) and I really liked the crowd that was at it.  There should be more events like these around Belfast.

    Incidentally, I was wondering if AM:PM is doing anything for Valentines day?  Even something similar to saturday night would be brilliant.  Keep me posted sure.

    Many Thanks

    Hans

    Just a quick note to thank you for a fantastic night out last night! We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and the! Food was lovely, service couldn’t of been better and the entertainment was fab!

    I will definitely be passing word around and will revisit sometime soon as im looking forward to seeing the bulesque dancers next time!

    Thanks again

    Mel Boyd!

    Hi all,

    Just wanted to say a HUGE thank you for Saturday night. we had an absolute ball. It was for my sisters birthday and she loved it.

    The staff were really helpful and great and the food was amazing.

    Thanks again for all your hard work.

    Went with my husband to AM:PM on Saturday evening at short notice and without much enthusiasm – and ended up having the most lovely evening. The atmosphere was perfect – chilled but still with plenty of buzz, the music was great and the food as always was absolutely delicious!! And a special mention for the staff who are brilliant!

    To all involved,

    Our experience in am:pm was beautiful. As first time customers both my boyfriend and I were overwhelmed by such a little boutique restaurant that was hid away from all the hussle and bussle of a busy city. It was a romantic relaxing experience.

    Comfort was definetly 9/10, relaxation/ambience most definetly 9/10 and food…. Well it certainly scored 10/10 ! We were both so impressed with the food.For starters my boyfriend chose Bruschetta….not a regular choice of his and i chose Chilli chicken. Both our taste buds were buzzing afterwards and we both agreed ‘good choice’. Then Not knowing what to choose for our main my boyfriend asked the member of staff who was serving us and he recommended the steak without a doubt. I chose Roast stuffed chicken. Well words can not describe how scrumptious both mains were. My boyfriend could not believe how perfect his steak was cooked and my chicken was oozing with flavours. We both cleaned our plates and were not fit for dessert unfortunately. I aslo ordered a cocktail which i had never had before ‘Midnight Sun’…. Mmmmmm Mmmm!!! Delicious!!! I did not even think it was an alcoholic drink, I was that wrapped up in the berry flavours i forgot all about the vodka so a big thumbs up to the cocktail maker !!

    We will surely be back to visit am:pm and even discussed to take some friends when the christmas markets arrive. We can have dinner then go browse the markets. Over all our experience was fantastic and we will surely be telling family and friends about our experience at am:pm !

    Thanks a million

    Folks,

    The food on Saturday night was excellent…it really is good to have a restaurant in Belfast that cooks ‘authentic’ Italian food!The ambience was lovely, with the right amount background chatter and dim lighting, although I wouldn’t book if there were more than 4 in the party.My only concern for last Saturday night was that the room became very warm which made it difficult to enjoy the delicious food.I will definitely be returning but make sure you keep up to the standard with the food!

    Best Regards,

    Diane Smart

    Booked a meal for my Anniversary at the chubby cherub after spying it while eating at ampm. The decor is enchanting and romantic, perfect for an intimate meal for two. To start we both had the bruschetta which was delicious with fresh ingredients and the mixture of flavours complimented each other well, yummy! We both opted for pizza for  our main course as we saw others had chosen them and the smell had our mouths watering. My boyfriend had a spicy one and I asked to make my own which was Parma ham and rocket, my only small complaint was that the ham was cooked on the pizza instead of being added after as with authentic Italian pizza. I wasn’t too bothered as they tasted lovely, nice thin crispy base and the tomato sauce had a lovely flavour to it. My boyfriend had two pints of peroni beer and I had a glass of prossecco and then decided to be greedy and order a cocktail. I liked the look of the French martini it tasted gorgeous and I was impressed when the bartender came to the table to check it was to my liking! I must also mention that the waiter was incredibly polite and helpful he clearly enjoyed his job which was shown by his upbeat and friendly attitude. I’m sorry to say we were too full for desert! So all in all we had a delightful evening in this hidden gem I was slightly nervous waiting on the bill but I must say I was pleasantly surprised great value, hope to return soon!

    Happy customer, Stephanie Wright.

    Hi,

    I received an email regarding feedback on our recent visit to Am/pm. All in all we had a great meal and couldn’t fault neither the food nor the service. In saying that however one thing which we did find was that the service was too quick. We sat at our table at 730pm and could’ve left the restaurant at around 8pm having eaten a starter and a main course. It would’ve been nice to have had a little more time to receive the starter initially and a bit more time between the starter and the main. Maybe you are just too efficient..

    As we went in it was very busy with a lovely atmosphere but noticed that the tables emptied pretty quickly. Although we finished our meal quite early we didn’t leave the place until after 11pm and had a great time. The dj was very good on Saturday and we enjoyed the atmosphere and we will use the restaurant again.

    Thank you.

    Hope the feedback is useful and hope you will enter us in your free draw. I booked the table under McClenaghan as that is my married name.

    Kind regards,

    Gemma

    Folks

    Once again, we really enjoyed our meal at CCs last night.  We had a G/T and a Peroni to start, followed by a shared Mama’s Salad which was beautifully fresh.  My wife then had the Pollo Carne pizza while I went for the Chubby Cherub pizza.  Beautiful crisp pizza base and delicious toppings on both.  Our food was accompanied by a bottle of Primitivo red wine.  We finished off with double espressos.  During each part of the meal, the service was attentive without being overbearing – perfect!  It set us up nicely for our visit to the Belfast Opera House.

    Thanks to all at CCs for another great dining experience.

    Best Regards

    Justine and Sean


    Hi had a lovely meal at am:pm yesterday evening and brought the kids along.

    Went to Ampm for a meal last night and as always was extremely pleased with all aspects of the place! We even arrived a little early and we were given our table straight away, the menu catered for all tastes, the food was sensational and the service just as good! Our waiter was great with recommendations and info, the ambience of the place was perfect as usual! Will definitely be back and will continue to recommend this place

    Thanks again.

    I would just like to say, I had a table booked on Saturday night for 2. From

    we walked in the door it was an amazing experience. The service, the drink

    and of course the food. I did think that as I had booked through Living

    Social that we would have a special menu…. but that was not the case. We

    were able to order off the main menu. The experience was fantastic, we will

    definatly be back. Will recommend  highly.

    Had my son’s christening party in am/pm on sunday 2 October 2011.  Everything went fantastic.  Food was superb, staff couldn’t do enough for us and overall everyone had a great time.  Could not fault one aspect of the day.  Highly recommended to all.

    Many thanks

    Hello,

    I’ve placed a view comments on facebook to tell everyone how wonderful your restaurant was.

    The staff were so attentive and informative, so nice. My orzo pasta with prawns will be very

    hard to beat and I was glad to healp my son with his calzone because it was gorgeous too.

    The house wine and Pellegrino lemonade was very nice. As for the desserts I had to try the

    tiramisu – so authenic, and my son’s gelato was lovely and rich. The decor and presentation

    was special and we can’t wait to have the opprotunity to come back and work our way through

    the rest of the menu!

    Thanks for everything

    Hi

    We were at the Chubby Cherub for a meal last Saturday and really enjoyed ourselves.  The staff were excellent – attentive but not standing over you constantly, the food was excellent (good choice of starters and mains), the atmosphere was lovely (nice background music and lighting etc) and the whole experience was very enjoyable.  We’ll definitely be back so thanks for a very pleasant evening ;-)

    Julie Sharpe

    Spent a lovely afternoon in AM/PM yesterday and it has been and will remain my favourite resturant, I love the ambience, the music and of course the food is excellent!!

    As always a lovely experience and we cant wait to go to the cabaret! please don’t change anything!

    The only point I would bring up is the discontinuation of the French Tom chardonney which was a superb wine, I miss that!

    Regards

    Deirdre McCrory

    The meal myself and my husband had for our wedding anniversary was delicious! The staff were fantastic, friendly and very attentive! Am Pm has a good atmosphere and is very inviting. The food was of great quality and i would highly recommend the steak! We will definitely be back in the near future and have recommended you to our friends and family.Thank you to everyone who made our night, a special one!

    Ellen Baxter

    Just wanted to send a quick email to say how much we enjoyed our time

    at AM:PM! We were there for the first time on Saturday 6th August for

    a birthday meal for my husband! We chose to go as our initials are AM

    and PM and I thought it would be funny to surprise him with a nice

    meal. Driving to the restaurant I was a little bit anxious that that

    was the only reason I had chosen the restaurant and I was concerned

    that the food wouldnt be that nice but my fears were put to rest as

    soon as we walked in. The restaurant and the atmosphere were brilliant

    and the service was excellent. The food was lovely and we will be

    back! I have also told all my friends about it!

    Thanks again

    Anna Moore

    Hi,

    I thoroughly enjoyed my meal at ampm. The food was gorgeous, the

    service was great. Also great atmosphere and great cocktails.

    I will definitely be going back.

    Kind regards Norah

    Hi

    We had a fantastic meal at the Chubby Cherub last night and can’t recommend it highly enough! It was our first time at the restaurant , we have just returned from Italy so wanted a meal that would remind us of our holiday. The food is delicious and not anglicised Italian as other Italian restaurants in Belfast seem to produce. There was a little bit of a mix up with our main courses which was not a big deal however this was swiftly and professionally dealt with by the friendly team which is the only reason I mention it. Our compliments to the chef for the fabulous food! We can’t wait to return!

    Lisa and Matthew

    Had another amazing night. Food and wine was delicious, atmosphere

    perfect and the staff were very attentive. Well done

    I just spent the weekend in Belfast and returned today. I had a

    fabulous meal with you on Saturday night and I especially enjoyed the

    wine.

    :)

    Eileen Maher.


    My partner and I had a very pleasant experience in AM:PM Friday, 15th July. We had just returned from holidays so just wanted to go out for a meal and to chill and relax. The atmosphere and ambience was indeed relaxing and created a warm and inviting feeling. The service was excellent and the meal itself was of a very high standard. I would definitely return and indeed recommend this establishment to all.

    Hello AmPm

    We were at AmPm on Sat 9th at 6.30 for the living social deal! I would

    just like to say that even thought we had a voucher the staff where

    excellent and no way did we feel (as we have before having used a

    voucher/deal) we were being treated differently! The food was 5 star so

    much so we couldn’t finish! :)

    It will be a pleasure to return and recommend this cosy little place to others!!

    Thanks again!!

    Sarah. :)

    We had a delicious meal and such great value.  The food was fantastic and so was the service.

    Many thanks

    Chubby Cherub,

    We had the pleasure of eating in your lovely restaurant on a saturday night. My boyfriend and I were siting in cupids corner and both had pasta. He had the goats cheese and chorizo risotto, which he said is the nicest he has ever had. Absolutely beautiful. We will definately be back.

    Thank you

    Hi there,

    I’m a local man who wanted to show my friends from the

    USA that Northern Ireland has a taste for providing high quality,

    decently priced food in funky surroundings. That’s exactly what was

    served up on my first ever visit to Chubby Cherub.

    Kids can be hard to please. But the two young ones in our party LOVED

    their garlic bread starter and huge tasty pizza main course. The

    adults were well chuffed too with their risotto and prawn mains.

    The tomato and basil soup was tangy and tasty and enjoyed by EVERYONE

    around the table. The special accompanying bread was sooo good as

    well.

    Minor gripes – my haddock risotto, complete with pine nuts, chives and

    peas was amazingly flavoursome. But in all honesty, when it was

    finished, I still felt slightly peckish. A slightly larger portion

    could have been served up, methinks.

    A dessert was needed to fill the hole, even though I am not a

    particular ‘sweet’ lover. The tiramisu was the best I have ever

    tasted, moist amaretto soaked biscuit, lots of wonderful fresh cream

    and fantastically liberal sprinkles of large chocolate flakes..Yummy!

    My only slight complain is this. .I thought the average dessert price

    - £5.50 was just a little bit on the pricey side compared to the great

    value mains. The price certainly put off the majority of our table of

    five ordering one each.

    Also the funky decor is excellent, but a little confusing, certainly

    at the bathroom door..We saw virtually every toilet user(all sober, I

    think!!!) get confused about how to open the door, with two handles on

    either side of the bathroom door frame.

    We all thoroughly enjoyed dining in The Chubby Cherub. The food was

    excellent. The staff were more than equal to the high standard of the

    grub – knowledgeable and pleasant when it came to answering questions

    about the food and drink on the menu.

    A  mix-up over my telephone booking was sorted out with pleasant

    civility. I also liked the fact too that there was no loud or overly

    intrusive music being played over the system, as I have hearing

    problems and stuff like that can really affect my enjoyment on an

    evening out.

    All in all, The Chubby Cherub provided us with an Angel delight of a

    time, without a demon in sight!

    Cheers!

    John McGurk

    Belfast

    Had a great night at AM:PM! The food and wine were good and the atmosphere was perfect for a friday night. We were able to relax and not feel rushed to leave as soon as our meal was over. I have recommended it to several people since our visit:)

    Hi to all at Chubby Cherub

    We gave some feedback to waitress and chef after our meal on Friday (1st July) evening but are very happy to do so again here.

    We had an absolutely delicous meal with you on Friday.  We had the tear and share breads for starter which were warm fresh and had perfect mix of oils etc to top them.  And then…..then came the main attraction – pizza!!!  Having been in Croatia, Paris and New York over the last 2 years, we have sampled many many types of pizza. We really mean this – YOURS WAS THE BEST!!  We have been telling everyone that  this is the best pizza in belfast and we truely mean it! The base was yum and the sauce and toppings were so so so flavoured and so good!!! Can’t tell you enough – big compliments to the chef/cook!!

    We will now be your best advert among our friends, its great to find somewhere new that we can recommend!!! We will most definitely be back!!

    Thanks again and I’m quite sure we will be back soon!

    Lois Neill

    Thank you for such a lovely dining experience last night. I found the food to be beautiful. The service from both waiting staff was splendid and friendly in a professional manner. The decor makes it all the more enjoyable.

    Thanks again.

    Hi

    We really enjoyed our meal at AMPM, the food was gorgeous and service was

    very helpful. It had a lovely relaxed atmosphere, which was helped by the quirky

    decor! It was our first time and will not be our last!

    Thanks again

    Rachel McBride

    Hi

    Yes, I would definately be back! Food was excellent and service also!

    Very friendly and efficient. Be back soon. Thank you! Best meal I’ve

    had in Belfast for a long time!

    Jude Cathcart.

    Hi this was our first visit to the Chubby Cherub and we will definitely be back. Its the most authentic Italian in Belfast and

    brought back wonderful memories of our holidays. The food was great, the wine good and the service excellent.

    Thanks for a very enjoyable evening!

    Nicola & Patrick

    My wife booked the meal with an offer she was sent from the “living social” group.  We were in town on business and took some time to shop so it was refreshing to finally sit down, relax , have a drink and enjoy a delightful meal.

    The food and service were both good and the relaxed atmosphere was great. The music choice was excellent and we left with the names of the artists to purchase a few cds to play at home ! The staff were helpful and knowledgeable and we will certainly return and happily recommend the establishment to our friends.

    Thank you

    Martin Kerr

    Hi I would just like to thank all the staff of ampm for making my

    birthday meal a great success. The food was beatiful and the service

    was great. I would recommend ampm to all my friends. Many thanks.

    Hi

    It was my first time in AM:PM on Saturday night and I was very pleased with the whole experience.The service was excellent, the menu was well varied and the food itself was delicious.The ambience and the surroundings were very pleasant and I would not hesitate in recommending this restaurant to friends and family. Just one thing to point out was that in the ladies toilets hand soap was in low supply even though there were a number of bottles on display.

    Geraldine Maxwell

    What can I say.

    My friend and I booked with a few to having the £7.95 meal deal.  When

    we arrived we were greeted by your friendly waiters, given a menu to

    choose from and asked what we wanted to drink.  We decided to try the

    Bruschetta which I have to say was delicious.  I then had the Salt and

    Chilli Squid which was to die for (please can I have that again).  My

    friend had the pasta with chorizo and plum tomatoes, which she thought

    was very tasty and full of flavour (definitely will have again).

    Parmesan chips were ordered between us for side and although they were

    lovely and nothing was left your portion sizes for the mains were

    plenty.  First time at am pm and will be there again very soon.

    Thanks again for a very enjoyable evening.

    Eileen Black

    We both greatly enjoyed our food, and found the surroundings pleasant.

    The service was also excellent. We shall both be back!

    Thanks

    Eating out is a regular occurrence for our family (neither parent,

    unfortunately having an abundance of catering skills/knowledge!)

    We had the most wonderful meal on Thursday 9th June 2011! The service

    was impeccable, food scrumptious and the decor…what can I

    say?….perfectly chic!

    What really made our evening special was no-one rushed us. All too

    often now waiters are keen to turnaround tables like lightning which I

    find extremely rude, not so at AM:PM. For once I had to ask for the

    bill!

    I have already booked again for Father’s Day. It is our new favourite

    place to eat!

    My girlfriend and I had dinner at Chubby Cherub last night. We enjoyed it very much.

    I lived in Rome for a year and in my opinion Chubby Cherub embraced the flavours and spirit of a traditional Italian trattoria, with friendly and helpful service and a warm welcome. I’m delighted to have found a place like this in Belfast.

    Thanks for making our evening a special one.

    Jonathan Campbell

    Hi Chubs

    Friday last was my third visit to the Chubby Cherub and I wasn’t dissapointed. The food was as good as ever. Its nice not to be rushed when out for a meal with friends. All in all, a lovely place to eat with excellent food and friendly service. Well done!

    Aine

    Hi, thanks for emailing me regarding my recent visit to your

    restaurant. Saturday night was my second time in AMPM and it is the

    second time I have had an excellent meal. Food was delicious, service

    was excellent and the atmosphere was perfect. I will definately be

    back in the near future.

    Hi Guys

    I just wanted to let you know that there is nothing I would change

    about AM PM, I love it. I have now been twice and if I had more

    disposable income I would be there a lot more lol. I had a friend over

    from the Isle of Man and as we were both on a budget we loved your

    April offer and we had a beautiful meal and a chance to catch up. The

    atmosphere is always so lovely and the staff are very attentive . I

    will be back!!!

    Thank you

    Louise Andrews J

    Thankyou for your email, we had a lovely lunch in your georgeous

    little restaurant, the food was excellent and we will be recommending

    you to our friends, we hope to return soon, and also for dinner some

    evening.

    Thanks again Elaine Kerr

    We had a lovely meal, great service and good wine on Saturday night thank you.  I particularly loved the garlic potatoes with pancetta

    We will definitely be back

    Thanks Oonagh Kane

    Very impressed by the quality of food and service.

    This is the type of place Belfast has been crying out for.

    Bohemian and kitsch but more personable than the big restaurants / pubs.

    A refreshing change in the menu to what is usually available at lunch

    time in Belfast even in the likes of Deanes Deli and CoCo.

    Also very good value for money.

    Will definitely be back at night time to enjoy a glass or two of wine

    and some delicious food.

    Thanks for a lovely lunch.

    Joe

    To all at AMPM,

    Thank you for a wonderful meal last week. The birthday girl enjoyed

    it, the food was delicious and the service excellent. Must give a

    mention to our French waiter (can’t remember his name) as he was great

    craic! Only one thing I could say for improvement would perhaps be

    slightly bigger portions…….but other than that the food was the

    best I have had in a while.

    Hope to be back again soon! Roy Little

    My Fiancee and I went to AM PM on Arthur street for a meal. The staff

    were friendly, the food fantastic and the price very good value. I do

    and will continue to highly recommend this restaurant.

    Naomi EC Murphy

    Great atmosphere, good service and excellent food – a truly enjoyable

    family night out!

    Hi,

    First class service and food very good. We are a family of 7 so you can imagine is expensive for us to eat out. We found it excellent value for money in a lovely enviroment. Well done x

    Hi,

    First time in AM/PM in town and was absolutely fantastic experience.  My fiance and I thoroughly enjoyed the meal; food was excellent and well priced.  Waiting staff we’re courteous and attentive.  The atmosphere in the restaurant was amazing; almost electric with a great buzz.  Totally fell in love with the decor amd the ambience, can’t wait for my next visit!

    Many thanks for a great start to the evening,

    Regards,

    Catherine Feeney

    My partner and I visited the Chubby Cherub for the first time on Friday 1st April and were very impressed with the menu choice, quality of food, friendliness of staff and overall atmosphere which contributed to us having a throughly enjoyable evening. I will be recommending the restaurant to family and friends, and will certainly be visiitng again ourselves.

    Also we booked online in advance  and found that service very useful! I wish more restaurants had that ingenuity :-)

    Many thanks

    Hi Folks

    A tiny mixup with our order was the only negative of our night and

    this was sorted quickly and efficiently. Quite simply, the best pizza

    and Caesar salad we’ve ever had in Belfast. My first visit

    (recommended by Judy) and certainly not the last. Friendly and helpful

    staff were the icing on the cake.

    Grahame and Judy Booth

    Hi, this was a very enjoyable experience & we will be back soon. I

    told everyone today about how good the food was, cannot praise the

    food & service enough… The staff were so helpfull & friendly that

    alone would have brought us back although the food is without a doubt

    the best i have ever eaten anywhere so a very big thank you.

    Hi guys

    Thanks for the great food last night. Good atmosphere as well. Super!

    No complaints at all!

    Regards

    Barbara Walker

    Thanks for your email. We really enjoyed the Chubby Cherub – the food

    The ambience at AMPM was excellent; it really is a ‘cool’ venue.

    Our waiter Eugene was very pleasant, helpful and service was very good indeed.

    The food was very enjoyable.

    Overall, a very pleasant evening and I look forward to my party in AM/PM in a couple of weeks.

    Emer Furey

    Our visit, once again, was very enjoyable. The staff are cheerful and attentive, without being overbearing. The menu has a wide variety, although I always seem to go for the same thing because it’s delicious( mamas salad). But the thing that makes the chubby cherub our first choice when eating in Belfast is the ambience. I love the decor and the fact that the restaurant is small and comfortable- Overall a very pleasant dining experience. I’ve recommend you to all my friends and sing your praises on my facebook page. We will continue to dine with you any time we are in the city.

    Hi C Cherub

    Just wanted to say we had a great meal at the resturant last night.

    Food was excellent. Loved the breads and our pasta was delightful.

    I picked the spot because I was there twice before and thought my

    sisters would enjoy it as much as I did.

    They both loved the cosy atmosphere and lovely food.

    Friendly staff too.

    We’ll be back v soon.

    Dear Chubby Cherub!

    Thank you for a thoroughly enjoyable evening.  The food was excellent (we both had the pasta with prawns), while the

    waitress was very friendly and attentive.  We returned because we had enjoyed the Belfast Telegraph meal deal the

    previous week and we weren’t disappointed.

    Keep up the good work

    Helen Montgomery

    Hello,

    We had dinner with you on the above date at 6pm and really enjoyed our time.  Everything was excellent, from the welcome through to the service and, of course, the food and drink.  We have never been disappointed when we have been to AMPM whether for a weekday lunch or, as our last visit, a weekend dinner.

    Many thanks for helping our Saturday night out start well and we look forward to our next visit.

    Gary Elliott

    I visited AM:PM in Arthur Street last night (a friday night) with my boyfriend for a romantic dinner.neither of us had been before but i had always liked the look of the outside and was excited to give it a try! we were blown away by how nice the foos was, the gorgeous decor, really friendly staff and atmosphere. we felt relaxed and well looked after and will definately be back soon!

    Thank you

    Hello,

    My girlfriend and I visited the Chubby Cherub this past Saturday for a meal and I just wanted to let you know that we were both very impressed. The service was courteous and the food was delicious. The layout, did cause a few problems (with me having to get out of my seat on several occasions to allow server access to a neighbouring table!) but that’s part of the charm of a small venue like this. On the whole we thoroughly enjoyed our time there and extend our compliments to the staff.

    Many thanks,

    Hi,

    Just wanted to say that I had a wonderful experience at Chubby Cherub. The food was excellent, the waiter was very friendly and helpful and the ambience was lovely. Between the two of us, my husband and I ate the bruschetta, prawn orzo, mama’s salad, giardano pizza and chocolate hazelnut torte. We were stuffed silly, but it was well worth it. Not a morsel was left on the plates! We’ll definitely be back.

    Hi

    just to let you know how much we all enjoyed our visit to The Chubby Cherub on Friday night 21st january. A great way to spend a chilly Janaury evening.  Could almost believe we were in Italy !  The food was just great and the service was faultless.  We felt really welcome.  So much so that I am planning to book for a group to come to celebrate my sister’s birthday.

    thanks again

    hello to all at chubby cherub, we were a group of 4 women visiting for the first time. i was the first to arrive. i was worried about parking my car across the road, so the lovely young waiter gave us a seat at the window so i could watch out for the traffic wardens. the rest of the girls arrived and we had lovely wine, our meals were lovely and we all really enjoyed them. the staff were helpful, but not intrusive, the ambience was delightful, and we all said we would return.

    To AMPM: Thank you for such a lovely experience for first timers to go out for dinner! I searched for hours looking for a nice place to eat out and I think i made the best choice for it! I will definitely be going back! Myself and my girlfriend really enjoyed the food, and the cocktails.. Really made our night.. And your staff are so lovely, really haven’t met anyone so good at what they do! And the music was brilliant! Really will be recommending the place to friends and family. Thank you again for this experience and good luck in the future!

    Yours thankfully,

    Tracey & Nuala

    Hello

    to all at chubby cherub, we were a group of 4 women visiting for

    the first time. i was the first to arrive. i was worried about parking

    my car across the road, so the lovely young waiter gave us a seat at

    the window so i could watch out for the traffic wardens.

    the rest of the girls arrived and we had lovely wine, our meals were

    lovely and we all really enjoyed them.

    the staff were helpful, but not intrusive, the ambience was

    delightful, and we all said we would return.

    two small things though i would like to say on the negative are, i had

    the chicken tortellini, whilst it was beautiful and cooked perfectly,

    i felt the chicken breast was on the small side, in fact i could have

    eaten another one quite easily.

    the other negative point is that we decided not to have a dessert and

    just have coffees, again the coffee was good but it would have been a

    nice touch to have it served with a little italian biscuit. we did ask

    for one and the waitress gave us a minty chocolate, but a little

    bickie would have made it.

    thank you georgina mccleary

    Hi,

    Myself, my husband and four of our friends spent New Year’s Eve in your restaurant on Arthur Street.  I just wanted to thank you all for an amazing evening.  We all agreed that the food was really delicious and of a really high standard, and the entertainment was second to none.  We especially enjoyed the live music and thought that the singer had the most amazing voice.  The service was excellent, all of your staff were friendly and attentive.  So thank you again for a great evening, and we look forward to next year!

    Kind regards

    Hello

    I am just emailing with regards to my recent reservation for two on
the 23rd Dec at 7pm. Firstly I would like to say that the meal both me
and my girlfriend recieved was possibly the best meal we have ever
eaten out in a resturant. The mains and deserts both could not be
faulted and I would greatly appreciate it if you could pass this
comondation on to the chef!!
The resturant itself was very nice, clean and inviting looking but
most of all and more importantly it was nice and warm.
I noticed and was greatly impressed by the waiting staff picking up
small pieces of rubbish as they walked around which I rarely see when
dining out, showing the level of care and attention you keep in your
establishment.
The menu was well chosen and offered plently of choice and diversity.
The only problem I would have with your resturant is that it is quite
hard to hear your waitier as he talks to you when ordering. I
appreciate that he does not shout so that the surrounding tables hear
your conversation but with the level of general conversation and
background noise I had to repeat what the waiter was saying to my
girlfriend alot as she plainly could hear a thing he said. This was
more of a problem with the two french waiters as I suppose they have a
softer tone to their voice.
Apart from that I had a wonderful meal and great nite out. I already
have been suggesting that my friends and family go and try it and will
certainly be back myself in the near distant future.

Many thanks

    David

    I was in for my birthday on tuesday evening on a friends
recommendation. The wine was good, the food was excellent! ,
specifically the squid, done to perfection. Although my steak was
beautiful too as was my girlfriends salmon.
Loved the music and atmosphere, and my parents really enjoyed, as
somewhere they would never have considered you will have some repeat
custom there!

    Many thanks,

    Stuart Hall

    Dear all,

    I wanted to take the time to respond to your feedback request personally as the service we received during our visit was really superb.  We booked a table for 5 originally and on the day of the booking were able to change both the number of covers and the booking time.  Nothing was too much trouble.
    I can report that all the meals looked fantastic but having chosen the goats cheese starter and the chorizo pasta main I was thrilled with the quality of the food.  So pleased was I with the meal and wine that I updated my Facebook status to sing the praises of am:pm – a restaurant I have overlooked previously!
    As well as delicious food the surroundings are modern but inviting, it is somewhere I could happily sit all evening, even the background music was fantastic.  I will definitely return with friends and we are considering planning another work night out here in the not too distant future.
    Special thanks to John for coordinating our visit and also to the two attentive waiters whose names I didn’t catch!  Keep up the fantastic work.
    Regards,
    Deborah Aiken
    meal date: 16/9/10

    Two colleagues and I had lunch at your restaurant yesterday. It was a
    very enjoyable experience. The staff were very helpful and friendly,
    the atmosphere was great and the food was lovely. The only down side
    was that we only had an hour to spend or we would have stayed for the
    afternoon and sampled some of the champagne discussed with Eamonn and
    the waiter.

    Thanks again for your hospitality for that small part of our working
    day. Corny or what.

    We intend to call again and this time take the afternoon on leave so
    we can relax and enjoy the experience for longer.

    Many Thanks

    Maureen

    I attended AMPM for my birthday dinner on Sat 20 Nov and I thoroughly
 enjoyed myself. Out of the nine of us who were there only one had ever
 been before and we all were delighted with the evening. Everyone raved
 about their meal and there was not one complaint about any of the food
 or portion size. The staff were pleasant and helpful and even brought
 out the cake my friends had got for me as a surprise (the waiter even
 brought down plates and a knife for the cake). I would highly
 recommend AMPM to anyone and cannot wait to come back to enjoy the
 surroundings .

    Thanks very much for the good time had by all at the party on the 3rd
    September.  I was very pleased with how it turned out and everyone
    enjoyed themselves there.  You may even get a bit more business from
    it!
    The surroundings/ambiance/food and drink was all very good.  I think
    everyone was surprised with the amount of food, which was delicious,
    but unfortunate that we didn’t eat more of it! I’d said to people
    tapas/light bites and not to come starving, oops!!
    Many thanks to John and the other guys working there that night. You
    were all very friendly and helpful.  Craig good selection of music,
    good stuff getting the dancing going and book me in for the 40th!
    All in all, thanks for everything, I’d recommend it to anyone!

    It was a dull afternoon. I had booked a table for 2pm but arrived
    early ……no problems. It was my 39th Wedding Anniversary and my
    wife and I were meeting with our daughter who works in Dublin for
    lunch. I came to AMPM because I read the reviews; I wasn’t
    disappointed.

    We had starters, drinks, main courses and sweets. The food was
    excellent and the service matched with friendly help and advice. I
    confess that we don’t eat much so my opinion is probably not as
    discerning as folk’s who eat out regularly however when I have and
    particularly on special occasions I either feel let down or ripped
    off.
    AMPM exceeded my expectations and left me grateful that for once I
    made the right choice!
    I would not hesitate to recommend AMPM Belfast!

    Hi Ciaran,

    Just wanted to drop you a line to say thanks to you & the staff at AM:PM Botanic for a fantastic night on Saturday 1st Aug, we had booked a table for 19 to celebrate a ‘hen; night for our friend Clare.

    The service at the restaurant was first class, food was superb and the atmosphere was perfect. We really couldn’t have booked a better place!! So thanks so much for an excellent night, we have all been recommending AM:PM!! hope to stop in again soon.

    Thanks again,

    Edel

    Hi,

    I had booked am:pm Arthur Street as the venue for our school reunion on Sunday night (25th July). I took advantage of the offer of free

    room and tapas which was very competitive and so we only had to pay £100 for the DJ. Everyone thought the venue was really nice, good layout and decoration, and a relaxed atmosphere for people to drink and dance.

    The food was very nice and staff were accomodating in terms of asking us when we might like the food served based on their kitchen closing times.

    The DJ was excellent, ringing in advance to research the audience (age range, gender etc) and even accepting a list of requested songs from a particular era – the music really made the night for a lot of people and the price for the DJ was very competitive.

    All-in-all it was a very good night and am:pm were extremely accomodating and we all commented that for a more intimate group such

    as birthdays and engagement parties the venue was perfect and based on the food, many people who hadn’t been for a meal before said that they would definately try it.

    Many thanks again,

    Leanne

    Hi John / Eamon

    Sorry for the delay in responding to your customer feedback request - just back from Croatia on holiday.

    Just to say a big thank you to the whole team at am;pm arthur street the night was a great success and i had so many calls / texts to confirm this to me personally. Everyone had a great night  – and most - their first time at the venue! my guests claimed the venue was an ”inspired choice”!…”perfect and funky”

    Good luck with the new venture across the street!

    Buono fortuna e grazie!!! Ciao chris

    My girlfriends and I took a shopping trip to Belfast last w/e, we wanted to have dinner at a good trendy restaurant in the heart of

    Belfast and maybe sit on at the table for cocktails. We are not fans of chain restaurants and made this clear when we asked around. We were told about am:pm on Upper Arthur St (down a side st very near the cityhall) and OMG we were not dissappointed!!! It’s this funky little restaurant with the coolest vibe, it HAS to be seen to be believed, there were loads of cool paintings, an explosion of flowers, weird old leather chairs – it was just adorable! We ate really well and had the hottest waiter in Belfast serve us and he treated us to a shot! The place got busy busy as the night went on and a DJ set up in the corner! We had planned to go to a night club after dinner but we met in with the loveliest people there! And yes we will keep in touch! ;)

    Loved it and cant wait to go back!

    Hi Guys,

    Here’s some feedback for ya. Last friday we came over with a group of close friends to celebrate my girlfriends birthday and as always the service, food, drinks, music and athmosphere – in other words everything – was suburb and a great night was had by all! I’m not from here originally but this is one of my favourite places in Belfast and can’t wait till our next visit.

    See you soon and thanks again,

    Kurt

    Just a quick email to say that my boyfriend and Myself went to Arthur Street last Friday night for dinner. Dinner was delicious as was the atmosphere (even though there was problems with the electrics) AMPM is always a favourite – Botanic when there are a few more people and Arthur Street for a meal for a meal for 2.

    Thank you

    Roisin

    I had an excellent Birthday at ampm arthur street! Service was brilliant, and everyone was well looked after! Even last minute  changes to the number of people were accepted! Will definately be back!

    Thanks again

    “Hi

    I have visited both AMPM’s in Belfast but I prefer the Botanic AMPM.  I love the food and atmosphere at AMPM in Botantic and for those reasons it is my favourite restaurant in Belfast!!

    Keep up the good work!
    Carole Wallace

    “Hi,

    I always enjoy my meal at either one of the AMPM restaurants. The food is fantastic value for money, the atmsophere rocks and the staff are very friendly and efficient.

    Something which i find very important also is clean toilets, its a shame when you eat in a good restaurant and the toilets are either not clean or well facilitated, it does have an impact on the place but they are well looked after in AMPM.

    I went to the hipcity event on New Years Eve in the other AMPM and i enjoyed it very much, again it was first class in every way. It would be fantastic if there were more nights like that for your regulars.

    The menu is good as it caters for all, Im quite picky and normally eat chicken which is not on a lot of good restaurant menus in Belfast.  My friend reckons your lasagne is the best in town and belive me she would know as she has tried all of them.

    Presentation of the food is fab, i love the little pots for the chips etc if I could make one complaint it would be that the side dishes are a little on the small side but hey thats all good for the figure ha ha!

    I love the relaxed friendly ambience its just perfect for a date, girlie chit chat or to call in for a few cocktails.

    Please keep doing what your doing because your doing it right!

    Kindest regards
    Mel. Boyd.”
