Recently visited Molly's s for the first time to celebrate our first anniversary. I wanted somewhere intimate serving good food. Well that could equally be a strap line for Molly's. The menu is small but well considered. The goats cheese mousse starter and duo of lamb main were a match for anything I've experienced in other top restaurants at home... More

My wife and I ate here during a recent visit to Belfast. We met with an old trekker friend of mine and her partner and had a fabulous meal. We ate on the ground floor and whilst it was small and compact it suited us as a group of 4. Food was great, good selection of wines and beers which... More

I wrote a review of Molly's Yard around Christmas time where I described it as "so-so" but said that I'd maybe give them another chance. I did - but only because we had been bought a gift voucher for Christmas so we didn't really have a choice! I so wanted them to redeem themselves, I really did. It's a beautiful... More

Food was good and service was good. Only complaint was that you're sat very close to the neighbouring tables. It might just be me, but I don't find this very comfortable or relaxing.

What a pity! It promises much with clean premises and interesting menu. All three of us had dry boring meals, then we were asked to pay for three courses when we only had two. (There were only four other people in the restaurant) we will not be back

Just like the title, four words, will go back for a romantic one! The seabass i has last time was very tasty and tender, the girl who served us had a little smile without any passion, mightbe because my friend and i just ordered water instead of wine.

We tried this out for the first time recently having always been intrigued by their lovely gated entrance. What a little star this is! If you haven't tried it yet, don't wait too long. The downstairs section around a tiny bar is traditional in feel and so characterful. It’s a bit like eating in a room just off the kitchen... More

I really liked Molly's yard and wanted to take the restaurant home with me . The food was interesting and delicious. I had a goats cheese starter followed by chicken- both perfect. We chose from the pre theate menu- good value at 18.50 for 3 courses. We also ate at the Barking Dog- also excellent.
