    Aaaah, Capers. Sadly I am old enough to remember the original Capers on Great Victoria Street from…read moremy sixth form days. If you'd been to Capers, you were Officially Cool. That restaurant closed and Capers moved to its current smaller site at Ballyhackamore. Capers is the ideal spot for when you have some month left at the end of the money. It's not licensed so you have the pleasure of bringing your own wine or beer. If you go for a 10 inch pizza which is plenty for one, you'll only pay about £6-8 each, with chips and garlic bread at about £2 each. This is a really small restaurants and there isn't much apart from pizza on the menu - just a couple of pasta dishes and chicken nuggets for the freakish few kids who don't like pizza. I'm delighted to report that the pizzas are just as good as they always were - thin crispy bases and load of cheese plus whatever topping you choose in a generous helping. Another bonus for me is that you can have your pizza made with cheddar as I'm not a big mozzarella fan. If you're planning to go on a particular night, make sure you book as this little gem fills up fast at weekends as it really is a cheap, cheerful and fun venue. Great for kids too.

    I don't know of many pizza places in East Belfast, apart from the obvious big chain restaurants. I…read morewould have to say this comes close to the top of my list. They have a good little deal on at the moment (free garlic bread) when two pizzas are ordered, thats a sure start way to ruin your breath for an evening. The pizzas here are nice and they have their own individual style and character, however a tad over priced for me. Unlike the big chain pizza places that are really competitive and have rock bottom offer prices sometimes, Capers fails to compete on the same level in my opinion. But you can 'bring yer own' and make bookings for groups and parties. A good place to go if you want to go to a little independent restaurant.

    Greens Pizza - San Valentino (special)

    I tried Greens on Lisburn Road a couple of years ago and was so disappointed I never returned, nor…read moretried this branch in Ballyhackamore, Upper Newtonards Road. Having started following a fully vegan lifestyle from January 2018, I've recently heard good things about Greens and how they now offer an extensive range of vegan options. Hence I decided to throw caution to the wind and give it a go. Ballyhackamore Greens is definitely popular, especially with families, as it was extremely busy when we arrived circa 7pm, Friday 30/03/2018. We got the last remaining booth and ordered Vegan Butter Garlic Bread, which was also topped with vegan cheese when set in front of us - not what we asked for, as we had specified no cheese when ordering! But hey-ho. Our pizzas were a Bawnmore; no cheese, artichokes, olives, peppers, onions and oregano. Plus the Earlswood; tomato, vegan cheese, mushrooms, onions, sweetcorn and basil. All bland, bland, bland, blah. In fairness the Garlic Bread Starter was decent and Brawnmore better than the Earlswood thanks to lots of olives. But nothing was spectacular or even really good. We piled on chilli flakes, garlic oil and chilli oil. Once we managed to obtain chilli oil that is - we had to ask three times for it! Third ask brought forth an admission from a waitress that there's only one bottle of garlic and one bottle of chilli oil for the whole restaurant! Hence she set off to retrieve it from another table for us. Absolutely ridiculous and quite comical! Greens either need to invest in a few more bottles of oil, or when customers ask for oil possibly dispense it into small containers and leave to tables as necessary. I wanted to give this branch of Greens a chance and really hoped to like it, especially because of the numerous vegan options. Unfortunately thick chewy pizza bases, bland toppings, an unwelcoming maître d' (abrupt and unsmiling with an air of just not wanting to be there) plus a comical farce over obtaining a bit of chilli oil really let this restaurant down. Not an enjoyable experience.

It was really not greasy at all like some pizza places can be and the doagh was really fresh too. The resteraunt was really nice. The atmosphere was great, it was a Saturday evening, they had music playing in the background and a bit of bustle about the place. Really laid back and relaxing dining experience and the staff were very chatty and friendly. I will definitely be returning. Also, you can bring your own booze, wine or beer only. Wine £2 corkage and beer is 75p.

    Visited Il Pirata for a leisurely lunch today and thoroughly enjoyed it. A lovely, relaxed…read morerestaurant with top class service from attentive waiting staff. Unfortunately they don't offer a separate, dedicated Vegetarian menu like their sister restaurant Coppi. However Il Pirata do offer a few good, clearly marked Vegetarian options on their standard menu. The food was phenomenal, being extremely delicious, reasonably priced and consisting of generous portion sizes. I cannot fault a single thing and will be recommending Il Pirata to everyone.

    The Upper Newtownards Road is a hive of restaurants and coffee shops so you've got to do something…read morereally special to stand out from the crowd, or so you'd think. But Il Pirata is chic and understated - from the outside there is no hint at what is behind the heavy stained glass door - you could easily walk passed without even giving it a second glance but that would be a mistake. Inside there is a reclaimed feel to this hip Italian. The furniture is all made from rich oak and the walls are paneled with what looks like up-cycled wood. This creates a real authentic rustic feel. The menu is typical Italian with all the usual suspects listed - you've got pizza's. pasta dishes, risotto as well as piatto. I actually opted for the Calzone of the day which at £5 was a bargain (Monday to Friday lunchtime special). It was filled with cheese and mixed Italian meats and was just the right size to ensure that the afternoon isn't spent in a food coma. The calzone was served on a wooden board which actually made sense as I was able to cut through the doe without the fear of making porcelain shriek. The service was second to none - the food was on our table no more than 10 minutes after ordering and the waiter even replaced a coffee he spilt a tiny bit of, even after we insisted that it was fine. To me this is the perfect place for a quick working lunch - the food is light and relatively health and they have lunchtime deals on which make it value for money. I also noticed that they serve draft lager and there was wine listed on their menu. I will definitely be back - there was a lovely relaxed vibe and the Italian food was as good as I've tasted in Belfast.
