Oliver's is one of our favourites, and never disappoints. The menu had plenty of well balanced options, and food was excellent. Especially loved the risotto and super impressed at the team rustling up an off-menu brownie for one of our fussy plain-eating friends! Front-of-house team were typically professional, not looking remotely aggrieved when we were the last diners and asking for coffee, when they would probably have liked us to leave - much appreciated.

Dined in Olivers last night. The food was excellent! We had two course specials with a mix of starters, mains and desserts. Steaks, Seabass and turkey were perfectly cooked and presented. Full of flavour. Good drinks choices available and reasonably priced. Staff were attentive and the restaurant has a modern relaxed feel to it. With a glider stop right outside the door access to the restaurant couldn't be easier. Excellent dining experience and will definitely return. Happy to recommend!!

Chicken Burger & fries - £19!!! Mayo missing, minute ramekin of slaw & 3/4 basket of frozen fries - tbh I’ve had better in KFC Service good & staff friendly Vinegar bottle like sth you’d get in a chippy Lemon Meringue very good but bought in Outside terrace area needs attention - soggy damp fake grass, 1 heater - no furnishings no atmosphere Disappointing

Stopped in on a whim today (9.16.23 ~6:30 PM), though the website notes we should reserve a table in advance. Our customer experience professional, Stephanie, greeted us welcomingly, acknowledged a seat was available, and was attentive to our needs the entire dinner. We sat alfresco , warmed with heaters as needed. The food was very good. (Fish and Chips, and pork belly). I was very satisfied with both the main dish and desert (brownie/ ice cream). The cost for two was about $75USD, which is about what you would pay in Manhattan NYC. The food was not scrumptious, though, but delicious and satisfying was all we needed… that’s what we got. I would highly recommend a stop in if you’re near the Stormont Hotel area. You’ll be glad you did .

Brilliant service and food in a beautiful restaurant. The chicken burger was incredible and the honey butter fries a revelation. Staff couldn't do enough for us and had lots of fun with our two little girls. Highly recommend and will be back

I haven't been to oliver's for quite some time as I find the food mediocre at best. A family member booked it for a special occasion and I couldn't really decline. We where seated at the kitchen door which opened and closed throughout our meal which isn't ideal. I had the curry which had a few pieces of chicken., loads of sweet corn, green veg and for some bizarre reason lettuce. It was presented in a bowl and was tasteless. Definitely won't be back far better food in other establishments

We stopped by here today for lunch. We didn’t know Oliver’s and were pleasantly surprised by the breadth and quality of the menu. The food was lovely, and looking around the restaurant everyone was enjoying themselves. We will certainly return.

First time to dine here. From sitting down to paying the bill we had a first class experience. Food was superb, really tasty and well presented complemented by great service. My only slight criticism was menu choices were limited. More options would have been good. Overall a great experience which I would recommend to others and will do again myself.

We had a beautiful meal for a friend's hen party. We pre ordered as there were 24 of us. The food was delicious and everyone got what they ordered. Will definitely return.

We live a 10 minute walk from Olivers and pre Pandemic we would visit around once a month. It could get a bit pricy, especially if you decided to make an evening of it and stay for an extra glass or two before walking home, the staff were so lovely, we never felt rushed and were happy to pay for a great evening. So when I suggested Sunday lunch my husband was hesitant, we'd been for lunch last September and the female server was loud and plainly in a rush to get us in and out. We decided to give the place another chance, so we booked for yesterday. The same woman served us again, 3 menus were slapped on the table in front of us. To be fair, we were given water at that stage but there were 7 people in the restaurant including us and it was almost 10 minutes before she reappeared with three words, 'Ready to order?" We asked if we could please order some drinks while we decided what to have, the barman, who we've known for years was very polite when he brought our order. When she returned to take our food order, I had just dealt with an urgent work message, and was quickly looking through the menu. My husband jokingly asked if he should spell his order to give me another moment to look. The reply, "Just tell me what you want and we'll get to HER (with a shrug over her shoulder in my direction) in a minute." On reflection, I wish I'd paid for the drinks and left then. I won't be spoken about like that again. Such a shame that all the rest of the staff and the beautiful food is let down by one individual.

We took a chance and arrived without a booking ( recommend that you book however) .we were only in Belfast a few days from Australia. We are so grateful that Huston the manager managed to find a table for us. The d Food and drinks were delicious.

Visiting N.I and wanted to go to our friend's Sunday roast spot because of the hype. Certainly didn't disappoint! The toast beef was superb as was the nemesis for dessert. Completely recommend - if the owners ever fancy opening in Glasgow then it would be much appreciated!
