Fratelli

Honestly one of the best Italian meals I’ve had, we arrived and went to the bar for a gin and tonic where the bar man took the time to tell us about a local gin and the meaning behind the name of it (jawbox) -totally worth a try… and the we were seated upstairs by a lovely chatty young lady. Our server named Josh was very attentive and kind. Now. When we arrived I said I was a coeliac, and I told the girl on the way to the table, but I forgot to tell poor Josh. So when our food arrive and I suspiciously asked, the poor lad had to take it all back. I felt like a total arse, not his fault at all, it was my fault, but he took it back and had it made fresh. He then apologised and brought us a complimentary Prosecco each. What a darling. I felt awful but he was so kind. Now let me tell you, I don’t eat Italian very often because of the gluten thing, but tonight my show was stopped and my fast was flabbered by the scallop gnocchi, honestly it was the best thing I’ve eaten in a restaurant in a decade. Staggering Well done to the chef, the best texture was unbelievable and the mix of flavours is like nothing I’ve had before. BRAVO!!! You honestly have made a grumpy coeliac very bloody happy. I would recommend this place to anyone who has a gluten intolerance and misses the beautiful texture of real Italian cuisine. I will be back. Thank you Josh, you are a darling x

we called onspec when in Belfast. Managed to get a seat within ten minutes but was closest to the entrance, albeit partly behind a screen, so wasn’t a great location. Service was a bit slow to bring menu’s and then again to come take our order. Drinks were slow to come out. Was a busy evening though so partly expected. Food was nice, I had gluten free pizza and chef made staff aware of a necessary change for the ‘base’ so I’m thankful for their knowledge.

Gluten-free review: The best pre-frozen gluten free crust I've ever had, tasted just like New York pizza crust. Had a Margareta pizza and mushroom pasta with gf pasta, both were amazing!
