    Before I start my rant, the front of house staff were lovely. Unfortunately that’s where the compliments end. The starter was average at best and the steak at £42 per head was inedible. We were offered a replacement but dining alone when my wife has finished doesn’t make for a good evening. I won’t return. Big shame 😞

    Excellent food, wine was delicious, service was impeccable, atmosphere was good, a little busy so bit noisier than more sedate restaurants I've eaten in but it wasn't a problem, generally a popular busy place ! But the food was excellent and so was the service. I would recommend if you're looking for somewhere to eat upper end food then this place will not leave you disappointed.

    I googled top restaurants in York and this restaurant came up quite high. I booked this as it was my partners and I 5 year anniversary so with this all being said, expected the meal to be above average at best. However I was incredibly disappointed. I chose the scallops to start and my partner had cured trout which were both delicious and very well presented but The “mains” is were the disappointing started. I chose the ox cheek and risotto, my partner had the lamb. Honestly I’m not one to complain and I’m all my years of dining have never written a bad review but the risotto was tasteless and very buttery and didn’t go at all with the ox cheek, yes I’d seen the two together on the menu before choosing but after the tasty starters we had I expected it to follow through similarly. I couldn’t finish the main because of the taste but also the way it looked didn’t help either, a chunk of fatty-tasting ox tail in a pool of luminous yellow mush, tasing similar to porridge. My partners main was…okay but again quite frankly bland and not what you’d expect from a restaurant charging what it’s charging. Desserts (pineapple upside down cake) weren’t much better, incredibly mediocre and presented like pub food. The bill came to over £200 and I feel the food wasn’t up to standard nor was it worth it. Plenty of reviews say different to mine (part of the reason I chose this restaurant) but we will not be returning, unfortunately. We politely gave feedback to the waiter after he’d asked how the meal was and he seemed to not care very much at all and just thanked us for the feedback. I would never expect money off ect but at least to acknowledge the feedback in a more engaging way would have possibly helped the situation. (Attached photos are the scallop starter and bed check in risotto)

    We came for an evening meal with our friends from Australia. We didn't book and although, it was busy, we requested an outside table and didn't have to wait long to be seated. The food and service were excellent. Would definitely go again. Vegetarian options: There were a few veggie options.

    Starters were AMAZING. Some of the best we've had! Main courses were okay...but not up to the standard you would expect at a place like this. Equivalent of a good pub dinner. We enjoyed our visit, but for the price, we probably wouldn't go again...but maybe just for the starters.
