A friend took us to Shu whilst we were visiting him in Belfast, this is his go to restaurant and once you walk in, you could understand why. Decoration is simple, settings are comfortable and light, the menu is not over complicated and the staff are very friendly. The food is excellent, though with the steaks that we ordered, they hadn't quite cooked them quite right, still they gave us a a free dessert. I would certainly head back and try if I am in Belfast again.

Very good quality Lisburn Road restaurant. Excellent service and great food. Surprisingly there’s a little speakeasy vibe bar in the basement. One of the highlights on the culinary map of Belfast.

Great service and an interesting menu - lunch a la carte is certainly worth your time. Ox cheeks with pasta and Pernod onions, confit duck leg with the smoothest mash imaginable and caramelised kale, and a wickedly indulgent chocolate ganache with almonds and miso. Wines are a tad overpriced for what they are but a great experience.

What a lovely restaurant. We stumbled across this place and glad we did! Excellent food. Great service, just the right amount of attentiveness. Probably the best desert I've ever had too!

Really good food! We visited on a Sunday evening. Service was attentive and casual. We ordered the chicken gochujang and gnocchi from the regular menu and oyster mushrooms and cauliflower dish from the vegan menu. The vegan dishes were the best we have had in S. and N. Ireland. Highly recommend!

Took a friend here for their birthday lunch. Had not been to Shu in well over a decade. Lovely decor and a nice welcome. The menu was varied and food delicious including beef tartare for starter, slow cooked lamb for main and pistachio and olive oil cake for dessert which was a revelation. At the end, asked for the bill and the waitress said she would get it but no rush to us to have to get up and leave now we were finished which was nice. Don't know why I hadn't been here in so long but I will definitely come back.

When we arrived at the restaurant we were one of the last reservations. So the restaurant was really full. We seated to a not very enjoyable table and I asked the manager if we could move to any better. The manager was very polite and he moved us immediately to a very nice table. It was very pleasant. The atmosphere was nice and the place is very well decorated. However it was bit noisy for the style of restaurant it is. The ladies next to us were bit drunk and they were noisy… The food was very delicious, the slow cooked beef was excellent. Sadly the portions were very small. That was something I didn’t really enjoyed. I know that places with gourmet food rarely have big portions, but I think that portions here were much smaller than the average. The wine was very nice and in a very good temperature, I really enjoyed it. The prices were reasonable. Concluding, I would say that the overall experience was good, the food was tasty but I would enjoyed it more if the portions were bit bigger.
