Chef-owner Niall McKenna is one of the innovators of the new wave of Northern Irish cooking. Found in a side-street, it’s part of a complex that includes James Street Bar and Grill and Hadskis for more casual dining, as well as the Cookery School. The Tasting Menu, which includes delicious options such as the Halibut with Mussels, Roasted Garlic, Shallot & White Wine is a must-try. Their Titanic Quarter outpost, Cast & Crew, has also proved to be a big cheap eats success.

Best Dish: Antrim Beef Fillet with Langoustine Reduction, Coffee Carrot & Caulflower – £28
