A superb sensory discovery experience! Unusual and imaginative flavour combinations combined with a rare sophisticated honesty about the food. Prepared with precision, perfection and passion that is evident in the beautiful and delicate detail of every dish. The wines are an educational experience and discovery that greatly enhanced and complimented the food.
Booked a meal for my birthday after being intrigued after Josh's appearance on GBM.
The food was amazing, we ate and enjoyed things I'd never dream of ordering myself, the wine pairing was also on point. The whole experience was enjoyable and memorable in a friendly and calm environment.
Very nice food and excellent staff. The price for tasking menu is very good to compare with other restaurants. I paid more in other restaurants and the food was much worse. The tasting menu has eight courses but you get some additional snacks so it’s probably 10-11 courses in total, plus you can get a cheese board, although I was expecting some nice restaurant made crackers not a bread to be served with the cheese board.
The wine selection could be slightly bigger. I missed some Malbec in the menu but still they have quite good selection of wines starting from around £19 per bottle and they have a few quite expensive choices as well, so you should find something for yourself. They have quite nice cocktails as well e.g. banana old fashion.
Incredible. Creative food, exceptional wine pairings and one of the most welcoming atmospheres of any fine dining establishment I have visited in the country. Would highly recommend booking in here.
A fantastic evening. Food of the highest quality, making the most of some superb produce.
Service friendly and unpretentious and an excellent wine pairing.
This is a hidden gem of a restaurant. The meal is like a jazz piece, great improv and preparation that is the result of great underlying skill. A small place, like an intimate dinner party with a feast of courses on a set menu. You don't get any choice or notice of what the meal is. Not a place for control freaks but if you want to be surprised, challenged and have your taste buds excited. This is the place in York.
Excellent food and service! Vegetarian tasting menu with wine flight. (2 courses not shown)
Beautiful food. Everything is cooked to perfection. Its my second visit and I wasn't disappointed.
Fabulous lunch at this little gem. Every course was beautiful and the service was superb
The menu was outstanding. I had a birthday gift of Le Gavroche, which was incredible. This place is better. The food and wine pairings were unusual and perfect. Particularly the iced cider orange wine and savignan ones which I haven't ever tasted. The service was perfect. Everyone should try the smoke eel. Also I normally won't eat an oyster but this was incredible. You have 2 weeks people before it closes, you have been warned.
My wife took me here for my birthday sitting at the chefs table and it was fantastic!
The wine pairing was very good with some interesting wines for each course, but the non alcoholic pairing was exceptional.
This is a restaurant that is experimenting and trying new ideas so be prepared to just roll with the menu and enjoy.
Only a matter of time until it gets recognised and starts winning awards.
Absolutely fantastic restaurant with an amazing tasting menu! Wine pairing is great too 👌🏻🍷
Perfectionists. A very special place. Josh and staff are all brilliant and made our evening brilliant by being very engaging.
What a fabulous experience and the tasting menu was out of this world. The 3 chefs and both waitresses were first class and it is a venue worthy of a visit. Only small place but a mighty big food experience. Each course was a wonderful gastronomic experience that tantalised your taste buds.

A fantastic menu and experience, and one which has improved significantly on the already great foundations over/since lockdown. Each dish and course was delicious and flowed nicely into each other, with some wonderful staples and changes over time as the menu has changed. As it is a blind menu I won't mention which dishes I enjoyed the most, but it was all thoroughly enjoyable - although you should look out for the macarons if they are still on the menu.
The wine pairing was always one of Le Cochon Aveugle's strengths, and this has been retained with the renewed focus in their food, and pair beautifully. In addition, last time my partner and I also tried both the wine and soft pairings, sharing both of them, and I highly recommend doing so. They were delicious, experimental and often unexpected. Sometimes the drink from each menu also paired beautifully together in addition to just with the food, making for a continually changing collection of flavours and textures.
Le Cochon Aveugle has cemented itself as my favourite restaurant in York.
Unbelievable! A fab experience from start to finish. The attention to detail of every tiny element of this evening was incredible. The surprise with each course made it so fun and exciting - with great service and a narrative to make each dish come alive. The food itself has phenomonal flavours that linger and grow in your mouth, and the wine pairing took it to a different level. Exceptional all round... Well done team cochon!
A group of 4 of us were lucky enough to sit at the 'Chef's Table', watching the chefs do their work, creating the beautiful food. Every course was delicious, gorgeously presented and innovative. We had the most wonderful time. Service was friendly and professional. Highly recommend!
Quite stunning. Certainly up there with the best meals we've eaten. Food was creative, beautifully presented, tasty and surprising. Wine list excellent and well priced. Service friendly, efficient and engaging. Atmosphere lovely if a bit loud and, on the hottest day of the year, a bit warm. They also accommodated a non-carnivorous friend with no problems. We will be back. Very soon...
Beyond incredible experience. Fantastic food, beautifully presented, amazing art and incredibly tasty. Great service and probably in my top 5 of restaurants (and I've been very lucky to go to some incredible ones). Fabulous experience I'll treasure for a long time
