The food was amazing and the service was just lovely! My friend briefly mentioned it was my birthday in the booking and I got a card on arrival and free dessert and they even remembered i was vegan so gave me some lovely sorbet!! Cant recommend enough💕

Lovely for a cocktail but not when you find that you've been charged almost £2 service charge for ordering 2 cocktails that were 20 minutes to make and you're sat at the bar
and no table service needed.
I never mind paying a service charge if I've had dinner, but for just making a cocktail that's absolutely disgusting!!!

Great menu choices. Brushetta excellent and both mushroom and seafood risotto was on point. Would recommend. Nice vibe too. Xx

Delicious food, had starters, main course and cocktails but then told only 20 minutes left on the table and wouldn't let us order desserts.

Hermoso restaurante de comida italiana. Los platos son sabrosos y bien presentados. Llegamos casi al cierre del servicio y nos atendieron muy bien.
El sector del bar, dónde también se puede almorzar o cenar es muy agradable y las personas del servicio muy amables.

Great food. Only downside was being asked if we wanted water on the table only to find a £4.25 expense on the bill for tap water. Don't offer it without advising price. Spoilt what would have been a 5 out of 5 experience.

Really nice food and great service. Well looked after premises, high quality feel to the place and the staff and food were great. We didn’t book but managed to get a table with a 45 min wait (we went to a local pub for a drink). Would recommend

We were having a wonderful time in York, enjoying the city’s rich history, vibrant atmosphere, and charming venues. We chose this restaurant with great excitement, as both its decor and menu seemed very appealing. Unfortunately, our experience turned out to be quite disappointing.
The atmosphere was undeniably beautiful—warm, inviting, and carefully designed. While the portions were smaller than expected, the food itself was delicious. However, the quality of service did not match the rest of the experience. The attitude of the bar staff, in particular, was completely unacceptable for an establishment of this level.
We ordered two cups of tea, but the teapot we received barely contained enough for one. When we politely raised the issue, we were met with an unprofessional and dismissive response, which was truly disappointing. We expected much better customer service from a place like this.
Additionally, I specifically requested my cola without ice, yet it was served five minutes after our food arrived—and with ice. When I asked for the ice to be removed, I had to wait another two minutes.
Overall, we were hoping for a pleasant experience but were instead met with a series of frustrating service issues. We truly expected better.If it were possible to give a negative rating for the service, I absolutely would. Sorry for this review.

Even though the restaurant was really busy our food came really quick and the service from the team was second to none. Some reviews on here comment on the discretionary 10% tip that’s added to the bill automatically but we were made fully aware of this and based upon our experience, more than happy to pay.
Definitely recommend visiting here but book ahead - We look forward to coming back in the summer!

Over priced for average food. You’re paying for the vibe of the restaurant. Immediately as you sit down, a waitress will ask if you want water for the table, you will not be told that this is over £4. They also charge a discretionary tip, your waiter does not make you aware of this, and if we didn’t take notice of the paper bill at the end of the meal, wouldn’t have seen it.
Felt somewhat cheated out of extra money when we didn’t 100% enjoy the food. Ive had better pasta dishes for cheaper at better places.
