Second visit to the restaurant after finding on a visit to York last year and every bit as good as our first visit, the menu has excellent choices, when the food arrived it was fantastic, the service was superb and all at a fair price, will definitely visit again

Had two meals here now over the past year and both times we have had a wonderful time. The food is to die for and the staff very friendly. Very reasonably priced also.

A warm welcome at this lovely restaurant. It was our first visit and we were not disappointed. The food is well worth waiting for as it is freshly prepared and made to order. Delightful and friendly staff who were attentive but not overly so. Altogether a great experience; can't wait to go back!

Lovely restaurant,been many times.We went on Friday night ,starters excellent,had to wait a long time for main course which was a shame,my husband had a dessert but I was past it by then.The staff as always were excellent.A bit of music louder would be nice so you can have a private conversation also softer lighting would make it perfect.

The staff were very friendly and attentive, the food was amazing and had a brilliant wine list which seemed longer in the restaurant than I saw online. Could not fault anything. Will definitely be back in the future.

Great restaurant and delicious food. We had the private room, being a party of 20, which was perfect for what we needed. Everyone commented how nice the restaurant and its food was. A great evening had by all!

We had no reservation for this restaurant but they had a table to accommodate us when we walked in ,we chose the set dinner menu and it was very nice for the price. The place had a nice relaxed atmosphere and the staff were pleasant and courteous. We will definitely go back.

Very intimate setting, small dining room but the tables aren’t too close so it feels very nice and cosy. The service is very attentive and the menu has a lot of verity. Plating is stylish but not overly fussy and the food is beautiful! I had the duo of lamb and my partner had the chicken. I also had the crispy pork salad to start which is Beautiful! It was my birthday and my partner had requested a candle on a desert which the waitress brought over singing happy birthday. Can’t rate it highly enough, there’s lots of lovely places in York to eat. Make this one a priority.

Wonderful little restaurant in city centre. Easily accommodated for our large group of people. Food was prepared to our liking and served rather quickly, even though we were 14+ guests. Lasagna was delicious and appetisers utilised proper Italian meat and cheese. Pasta was also good. Kind staff was a good bonus.

Great muscles, decent roast, good service. If you feel inebriated walking out from your table it's not you it's the floors, adds to the charm though. Note I had eaten half the muscles by the time I took the photo.

It has been over 10 years since we last visited this restaurant. So we thought we’d make another visit! It is a spacious restaurant with high ceilings and tables were sensibly placed with the 2 dining areas. We were greeted with a friendly waitress who took us to our table. She informed us of the soup of the day. We perused the menu which has a good choice. We opted for the set menu, one of which was a vegan version. It wasn’t because we were vegan, but the menu was enticing! We ordered our drinks and had some fresh bread as an accompaniment. The waitress later came back to take our food choices. It had a lovely atmosphere with music in the background. It didn’t take long for our starters to arrive. The food was fresh and well presented. The mains came hot and steaming which was delicious!! We also managed to fit in dessert too! It was a lovely evening! Great menu and friendly staff. We will definitely return again and not leave it another 10 years!!

Excellent service. Lovely food and good value - had choices all from the set vegan menu and really appreciated the effort gone to keep these in line with the other menu. Also had a lovely mocktail and impressed with all the vegan desserts choices, will be coming back to try more!

My friend and I are visiting from the U.S. and this was by far the best food we’ve had for the best price thus far on our trip. I am vegan and my friend is not and we both absolutely loved the food. The service was amazing and the ambiance very relaxed. Dora, our server, was incredibly sweet and helpful. I was blown away by the excellent service, the delicious cuisine, and the unbeatable price.

We had the restaurant to ourselves which was surprising and also a shame. The decor is beautiful, the service was great, our meals were well presented and tasty (just way too much potatoes!).

We stumbled upon this lovely restaurant while sightseeing and I am so glad we did! We went at lunch time so it was quiet with only a couple of other tables in. The server was lovely from the get go :). The food was some of the best Italian food we've ever had. I had the lasagne and it was honestly the best lasagna I have ever had. I will 100% be going again next time we are in York!

Arrived for an earlier reservation so the place was quiet when we arrived, we were served promptly and the service quality was consistently good with no excessive waits between dishes. The food was delicious and well presented and I would certainly visit again.
