Ox Restaurant
The pioneers behind OX, Belfast born Stephen and Brittany native Alain met in Paris, working in various influential and inspirational restaurants to put into practice against the backdrop of their own relaxed riverside restaurant in OX. With experience gained in the Michelin starred kitchens of Paris including the 3-star Taillevent, and an enthusiastic and unique approach to seasonal produce, chef owner Stephen uses imagination and creativity to help bring fresh ingredients to life. Letting their creative side shine through in the menus and using their skill and expertise to highlight the best of local and seasonal produce.
Adjoining the exquisite main dining area of OX is the intimate OX Cave, with its own bar area and equally as sumptuous small plates to compliment the award winning main restaurant delicacies, the Cave is the perfect place to dine in Michelin star style but in a more casual setting.

FOUNDERS THOUGHTS
Located in the east of the city on the banks over looking the River Lagan, rests this Michelin Star restaurant, the incredible OX. The riverside setting offers an excellent backdrop to this elegantly designed 40 seat restaurant, while an intimate mezzanine area provides for more secluded dining. Without a doubt, one of the very best culinary experiences I’ve had anywhere in the world.
