Tried Coppi for the first time tonight. Very impressed, had a delicious main of smoked chicken, leek and garlic cream tortellini. Shared a starter of sourdough breads– so fresh! The Hendricks Garden cocktail was also lovely. I will be back!

Just like its sister restaurant’s this is a must visit– set in a great place and with a funky industrial vibe inside it, really great night with friends/or other couples! Love the sharing tapas and the cocktails are a must!!! Great Staff and just a really good buzz!

Possibly my favourite restaurant to eat at in Belfast as I’m never disappointed and always leave feeling satisfied, in some cases too satisfied and need to be rolled out. Staff always pleasant and never leave you waiting long for a table. Food is amazing especially with their ever changing sharing starters. It allows you to try something new, an authentic taste of Italy. Highly recommend with reasonably priced menu. Best pasta you will get!

Went to Coppi for my sister-in-laws 40th birthday on Saturday evening of easter weekend and like any sensible Unilocaler I checked out reviews to see if there was anything on the menu that was particularly recommended! There was a nice buzz around the place but not so loud that we couldn’t chat at the table. I was the last to arrive and slightly feeling under pressure to make my choices from the menu which I had already checked out online so had a fair idea what to pick(I’m ridiculously indecisive so getting to check out menus in advance is very useful) For starters a friend & I decided to share some Sourdough Bread with Tapenade and some olive oil with balsamic and a portion of Feta Fritters with truffle honey from the cichetti menu(think Italian tapas) the fritters were deliciously moreish, the bread was tasty and tapenade very good. Main dish I chose Duck Ragu with Porcini Mushroom Ravioli, Truffle & Pecorino, first impressions wow this was a delicious meal, the duck was really tender, pasta was really silky and cooked to perfection and little bits of crispy duck skin added a nice crunchy element to the dish and sauce was full of flavour I could easily imagine sitting in a trattoria in the rolling Tuscan hills eating this with a glass of house wine. The only disappointment was a few bits of duck that were a bit dry and chewy. Onto dessert and I had to chose my favourite Italian dessert of panna cotta, this was a particularly good one with a hint of amaretto and a nice sour cherry jam to cut through the rich milky dessert. Overall I enjoyed eating at Coppi but it is just that bit more expensive than other places in Belfast so definitely one for a treat. Quite fancy going back on a sunny lunchtime to sit outside eating a selection of cichetti washed down with a nice cold beer… just need to wait for the sun!

Nice little spot for lunch. Their fetta fritters covered in truffle honey are delish.

I have a thing for little plates of food and good Bloody Mary’s and this place does both perfectly! Like its sister Il Pirata in East Belfast, this place does authentic Italian mini plates of joy. Great service and lovely moody dimly lit atmosphere. Always easy to get a table in any time I have went, and if you want to continue your night in there they have a lovely big bar at the front to sip your extra spicy bloody Mary’s from.

Been here several times over the past few years since moving to Belfast, and to be honest, while their main plates are pretty good, the real reason to go here would be for the chichetti. Think of them as Italian tapas. Honestly, if I had it my way and didn’t mind looking like the human equivalent of a vacuum cleaner, I would order 10 plates of the Feta Fritters with Truffle Honey, and just inhale them all in about 5 seconds. They’re that good. Shout out to their Parmesan Fries. Great food, but I prefer going there for smaller dishes before moving on elsewhere for the main meal.

The food here was superb! I still fondly think of the food… The minestrone, the gnocchi fritti and the broccolini made for some excellent starters and sides. And I absolutely LOVED the salmon. Everything I had was cooked to perfection.

The food here was delicious! We ordered the salmon, garlic gnocchi, broccolini, and summer minestrone. The salmon was cooked beautifully and paired well with chickpea and tomato sauce. The garlic gnocchi was friend and served as a side. We stumbled upon this place on a road trip through Ireland. So glad we did!

Coppi is without a doubt my favourite restaurant in Belfast. Having been a number of times I have yet to be disappointed. The service, atmosphere and most important, the food, are top notch. I visited for dinner on Saturday night having the sourdough breads for starter and smoked chicken papperdelle for main. Despite it being a very busy night the staff were extremely attentive and our meal was served in good time without feeling rushed. Can’t wait for my next visit!

Coppi is simply awesome. If you’re going to visit one restaurant in St Anne’s square, make it this one. It’s an Italian restaurant, but miles better than any other Italian currently in Belfast. I love their small plates(chichetti) and really recommend the feta fritters with honey; try them along with a starter of Coppi sourdough breads, oils and tapenade. Makes for a luscious starter to share with friends. The small individual pizzas are amazing too, especially the zucchini, eggplant, black olive and goats cheese pizza. Great food, wine and service; a fabulous, relaxed, unpretentious place that’s just all about delicious food. I can’t recommend Coppi enough.

After the marathon, I needed some recovery fuel. We decided on Coppi, a fairly new Italian place in St. Anne’s square that features sharable tapas like dishes. The Sicilian braised Goat pizza comes served on this little platter either a tiny old man made in Italy or what might be the tires from our last rental car. The goat is crispy and tangy and after a few bites, packs a tingly punch. Don’t skip it unless you hate delicious little tin can eating mammals. The Cabrese pasta was recommended by our friendly locals so all four of us ended up ordering it. Worth it! The peppers and chili oil combined for a fiery spice that continued to grow throughout the meal, sort of like a good ramen. The cheese was sliced paper thin, so it melted consistently into the pasta and made it creamier. do like our friends and order this once, and you’ll love it so much you never try anything else. Last up was the hazelnut pudding. The ice cream melted into the«pudding» which we were surprised to find wasn’t jello instant pudding, but more like a bread pudding. It paired very well with the house espresso which true to their Italian roots, was excellent and served with a biscotti. The staff was exceptionally friendly and comped a misplaced coffee order for us.

One of the many great restaurants around St. Anne’s Square, Coppi is one of my favourites for lunch. The space is large, funky and industrial in feel yet manages to be cosy and welcoming. I had squid with rocket and aioli to start which was light and nicely cooked, not rubbery in the slightest. Main was a smoked pancetta and mushroom linguine which again felt wonderfully light but packed with flavour. The highlight however was the dessert, a little pot of strawberry panna cotta topped with meringue and a lemon curd… Absolutely lovely, the type of dessert that brings a smile to your face! Overall a great place for an enjoyable lunch. I hope to be back soon to see what its like by night!

You won’t find any carbonara or bolognese on the menu here. It’s great take on authentic Italian and well worth a visit. The setting is very cool and well decorated. A great spot if it was just a bar to chill out in, but throw in some fantastic food and it makes for a great experience. I had a duck tortellini ragu and my friend a squid ink crab linguini. Both we thought were delicious. If you want something different from your usual Italian experience and better, you have for to try Coppi.

Despite the industrial feel(and some of the chairs pretty uncomfortable) there is something so cosy and comforting about Coppi. Italian in theme, but definitely not your Pizza express, the menu ranges from small plates of Italian style tapas to pizettis(small bread-like pizzas) to more wholesome pasta dishes, with the pasta made daily in house. We started with some of the chicettis to share, and followed with the steak(I know, not very Italian) with parmesan & rosemary fries. The whole thing was delicious, and the service was great, if a little hipster-trendy for my liking, but that says more about me than them. ;-) Always buzzing it is a perfect spot for catching up with friends, and on occasion when we haven’t been able to get a table we’ve been able to sit at the bar enjoying the small plates and gin– they also do good gin, so what’s not to like!

This Italian restaurant was such a surprise! I heard about it before and wanted to try it but somehow never happened! Finally I went there and I took time to enjoy it! We had a 3 course meal over lunch and took around 2 hours just to appreciate it! I had a polenta salad as a starter, a pork ragu as a main course which was brilliant with daily fresh pasta and birra moretti on the side just to make it perfect! For dessert, vanilla ice cream with caramel sauce and walnut praline! Just like Italians I only drink my espresso after my meal and it was oh so good!(plus I noticed they serve the pizza individually, as it should be — like Italians I don’t like to share my pizza :)) Not only the food was superb but the presentation was also wonderful! I love the space(literally!). The industrial look with concrete high ceiling, the lamps, the wooden floor, the tiles, the long bench crossing the restaurant, the wooden tables and the candles all over the place, just to make this open space cosy and comfortable! It works really well and the atmosphere was great! The staff was as friendly as they could possibly be! We didn’t have a reservation but the lady at the front desk made sure we felt welcome there! It wasn’t busy, just enough to make it cool and so the staff could look after us. It’s a true ‘hidden’ gem this place, beautiful food in a brilliantly decorated restaurant! They also have a special menu over lunch which makes it very affordable! Overall a top-class experience for a reasonable price!
