City centre restaurants

I'll be in Belfast on Friday and looking for somewhere nice - i.e. a proper restaurant - for a lunchtime meal.

A la carte menu, full wine list etc. In Dublin I'd opt for places like Fire, Peploes or Marco Pierre Whites. so something in that type of range.

Off the top of my head,
Very fancy restaurants:
Ox - Oxford Street
Tedfords - Oxford Street
James St South - funnily enough on James St South
Holohons on the Barge - on a barge on the Lagan River

Nice restaurants:
Stix and Stones
Flame
The Ivory
Made in Belfast
Coco
Ginger
Havana Bank Sq
Mourne Seafood Bar
Fratellis

Any of those would be lovely.

+1000 for The Barge, great food and a lovely location.

Have been to Tedfords a few times, lovely food but the service has been downright shocking at times. Not planning on going back.

Plans scaled back a bit. Currently enjoying a glass of wine with lunch in The Ivory in House of Fraser!

The city centre is 10 mins walk from Central and there's a free bus if you've got a train ticket.

I'm looking for cheap places to eat in Belfast. For tomorrow. Pref. under a tenner, or even under a fiver. I don't eat meat, really,I'm not a veggie, just sick of the taste of it. A fish man, though the mourne bar is a bit overpriced for what it is IMO. Looking for something unusual, not in Dublin. I tried the cubanos place, but I'm looking for something different.

Dina Dina on Upper Arthur Street does lovely piadina which are pretty cheap IIRC. They also have mini pizza's.

But tbh food under a fiver is quite an ask for any city.
