I - The place An astonishingly good yet home-y gastronomic experience with a lovely concept. II - The Food and mood The OX was, with Established albeit in a different way, the highlight of our Belfast trip. If you are not aware of the concept, I think it is better to summarise it as an exciting and surprising tasting menu-focused experience. As I wouldn't want to spoil the surprise, I would simply say that the produce was treated with a lot of love and the resulting dishes exquisite as a result. The service, throughout, was lovely and unpretentious. You really feel at home, also helped by tasteful and comfortable furniture, throughout the experience. The noise level is also quite decent, something I'm more and more attentive to. An Irish x Scandinavian stunning set, both for the palate and the eyes. III - Anything special? Once again, the concept, but discover it for yourself. The OX has been quite a unique stop during our two weeks in Belfast and was one of the best restaurants I've been to for the past 2-3 years. IV - Verdict A gem at the heart of Belfast and a treat to try at least once in a lifetime, with an affordable entry-level tasting menu and a more expensive (and expansive) one if you can afford a bit more. I really do want to try the fruit juice pairing next time, reminding me of my favourite Höst.

We had a nice meal in Ox. The food was very nice throughout. Special mention to the scallop course, beef and chocolate dessert. The food was all very visually appealing but maybe lacked a little in terms of wow factor when it came to flavours. The wine pairings were good and some really interesting wines were provided. Service was attentive but maybe a little cold.
OX deserves its reputation of being one of Belfast's most fantastic tasting menus and Michelin star experiences. Wonderful intimate service from start to finish. The menu was exquisite and the wine pairings and cocktail menu well curated. Everything we tasted was interesting, outside my normal comfort zone - but excellent! Everything you want from a gourmet meal. It is of course, priced to reflect the high end experience, but it is definitely worth it for a special night out or a treat.
Just the most amazing food and service! When in Belfast we always try to get s table the menu knowledge of the staff is insane and the chef's know what they're doing with every single ingredient! Absolutely delicious! Perfect service!
Definitely the best restaurant in Belfast. A must go. Book in advance, as it's quite busy. The food is excellent and so is the service.
