"Though The Cellar is in plain sight from the road, we had a little trouble finding it. We’re not used to addresses like “The Diamond,” which is just a little kind of extended semi-circle of businesses. So, we were late for our reservation, but the folks couldn’t have been nicer. I had a delicious Caesar salad for a starter; my husband had an amazing smoked salmon appetizer with herbed cheese. We then both had the prosciutto rolled monkfish and a chocolate strawberry roulade for dessert. Everything was fresh and delicious. Service was very friendly and helpful. We loved the cozy atmosphere as well. All in all, a wonderful dining experience on our first day in Northern Ireland!"

"I can't find any faults with this restaurant. The staff were incredibly friendly and even remembered me from my phone booking. They were very hospitable. The food was amazing, high quality dishes at a great price. I started with the crab claws, which were cooked perfectly and packed with flavor. My salad was also very tasty. My partner had the stuffed pork fillet with scallops and couldn't stop raving about it. The pork fillet was incredibly tender and the black pudding was fantastic. We both had the chicken stack for our main, a simple dish executed perfectly. The champ was delicious and flavorful. The chicken was tender and full of flavor, and the whiskey cream was decadently delicious. It was a BYOB restaurant, which was great, but unfortunately we were driving so we couldn't bring our own wine. The staff were excellent in terms of social distancing and wearing masks. The bathrooms were clean and it was easy to see if there was a line so we could easily socially distance. The food was fresh, delicious, and well-prepared. Overall, an excellent restaurant that I will definitely be returning to."

"This could be great but several things let it down. The service was slow, 20 mins to even order drinks, and an hour to be served our main course. No explanation or effort to build rapport with customers. My fish portion was well cooked but very small, the cauliflower accomplishment was seriously hot...I was expecting curry flavours not to have my eyes water. Luckily my husband likes spicy food so he ate that. Our daughter's chicken was dry. We had to ask twice to get replacement water and drinks with our meal and again twice to get the bill, another 40 min wait. This didn't sit well, with us having pre-booked online which stated we only had the table for an hour and must vacate it by 8pm, so we'd prepared ourselves to be quick and vacate the table swiftly. We booked for 7pm and hadn't even had our main meal by 8pm so I'm thankful no one enforced their booking policy. The majority of the staff appeared to be young and trying hard but very inefficient. I felt sorry for them as they were clearly trying but weren't working well as a team. We're only here on holiday but I'd recommend other places to eat, unless you've got lots of time on your hands."

"I ordered ice cream for me and a co-worker through door dash. We both chose the banana foster and indicated what kind of ice cream we wanted and what topping. My co-worker asked for vanilla soft serve and I specifically wrote chocolate soft serve and put that if it was not available to call me. I received a call a little after I placed the order to be told they didn't have banana fosters (even though it is on their menu) and that they would put everything into a large cup instead. They also said they didn't have caramel which my co-worker wanted. We asked her if we would at least get the bananas since we couldn't get what we ordered (the order came out to about $26.00 with the tax and delivery charge and tip). She informed us that they didn't have bananas either. My co-worker asked about butterscotch which again they said they didn't have. My co-worker agreed to peanut butter and hot fudge instead. Our ice creams were delivered and they were both made with vanilla ice cream and they never put the whip cream or the Bordeaux cherries that I ordered on it either (I don't eat vanilla ice cream). Obviously they never bothered to read what I wrote. I called them and told them that they did not send me what I ordered. They said to have the door dasher return it and they will make me a new one. I told them I would have to pay the delivery charge and order it again on door dash. Even though they offered to pay the delivery charge I was not going to place another order. It's bad enough that they were offering something on Door Dash that they didn't have and didn't have 1/2 the things we asked for, but they could have at least got my order right. I ate the strawberries that were in it and threw out the rest of the ice cream because I do not eat vanilla ice cream. If I could give them negative stars I would. I will never order from them again."

"Yesterday, we ordered a topping from the seafood section of the menu, and it was brought to our table right away, accompanied by warm crusty bread. I was amazed at how such a simple dish as mussels could be transformed into a delightful culinary experience—the chef here clearly has a special touch! The sauce paired beautifully with the rustic bread, enhancing the mussels perfectly. The service was excellent, and the staff were very friendly. What more could you ask for? I will definitely be back!"
