The Sooty Olive Restaurant in Derry

Friendly staff, nice atmosphere and above all excellent food. Visited at least a couple of times, the quality and consistency of the food and service is fantastic.

Favourite restaurant in Derry! Always have the nicest meal- the food is amazing and the staff are so lovely. We visited last night for my grannies birthday and they went above and beyond to make sure she had a special evening. Thanks again!

Excellent food and pleasant staff. Worth a visit you won't be disappointed.

The most amazing food. Great service and incredible quality. Looking forward to the next visit

We had the most amazing meal. Even the fussiest person couldn't find fault. The atmosphere is vibrant & the staff are so friendly. Definitely well worth a visit

Booked Saturday lunch at The Sooty Olive for my wife’s birthday with a couple of friends.We had the three course lunch menu with all dishes cooked to perfection. I had the brill special for main which was fantastic.It is easy to see that the chefs take pride in there work with the standard of cooking and presentation.The front of house staff were pleasant and looked after our requirements.There is good wine selection at reasonable prices .A good way to spend an afternoon and we will be back soon.Returned a couple of times since with the same result .

Service was horrible last night , server didn’t even set the table and didn’t give us menus. After giving us 10 seconds they were hassling us to order straight away . Then offered us their special and overcharged us as a party of 2 paid £112 for a starter each and a sharing main course . Not to mention charging us another cocktail which we didn’t ask for. My girlfriend felt sick so we left and on the way out the staff were talking about us amongst one another at the till. Very dissatisfied

Wonderful food, great atmosphere and really professional staff. Compliments to the chef, again.
