    Probably my new favorite place to eat when I'm in York. The Cheateaubriand dairy cow steak here may…read morebe the most tender steak I've ever had, and I've had a lot of steaks in a lot of countries. I am rarely this impressed by steak quality outside of the US. And the wine list! Orin Swift (the famous maker of Papillon), Stag's Leap, and lots of lesser known but still excellent brands from around the world. This is going to be my first stop next time I'm in York. My only comment -- but maybe this is just from an American used to farm-to-table food -- is that just like everywhere else in England, I wish there were fewer fried things and more vegetables on the menu (although the tomato side salad was amazing). Still the freshest, most farm-to-table type of meal I've had in York.

    After two different people recommended this restaurant, we thought we would definitely try it. We…read morearrived at 5:30, the first customers of the evening. Waitstaff were very attentive and friendly. Hubby ordered onion rings which were hand battered and delicious. I ordered cod and vegetable risotto which were fine but not remarkable. Broccolini with blue cheese sauce barely had any blue cheese or sauce and was hard, not cooked really much at all. I left half of the serving. We had bread pudding for dessert which was also okay. I didn't find the seasoning of the food to be adequate and maybe salt and pepper on the table would have helped this. By the time our food came out, the waitstaff was busy so I didn't have a ready opportunity to ask for salt. And should I have to ask? This place has a charming interior but i'd suggest drinks here, not dinner.

    Few things. When I called to make a reservation for 7:15pm i…read morewas urged to take a slightly earlier time of 6:45pm. When we arrived there and all through the night, there were at least 4 or 5 tables free so I'm not sure why we were told to take earlier seats. Secondly, when we arrived we were called over from the front door by the (I guess) front of house hostess, from the bar area where she was standing (perhaps 10ft away). She didn't show us to our table, she merely said, "around that corner there is your table". Poor service at best. At this point the restaurant was not busy at all. She had a face like sin and didn't appear to be in the best mood. Not a very good embassador for the place. BUT.. aside from this early poor interaction... Onto the other staff, waiters and waitresses etc, very impressed, well dressed, very polite, tentative, good vibe overall and we were looked after. The food, actually really nice, steak was massive and cooked to perfection. Large portions, exactly what we expected from a steakhouse. Veg was cooked well however the cauliflower cheese should be advertised as "cauliflower with cheese on top" as the cheese sauce was merely drizzled over the top of boiled cauliflower. But I would say we were (4 of us) all very happy with our food. Front of house lady didn't spoil our night (I suspect it was she who took my reservation phone call too) though it would have been a lot nicer if she met the same standards as the rest of her crew and food. Overall, we would definitely return. Thanks

    This was an enjoyable establishment. Didn't start off well as the waitress did not know what mezcal…read morewas and they were out of the mezcal cocktail. I wasn't a fan of the cocktail flight because it was a bit foamy, but I had better luck with the food. Had a steak special that was reasonably priced and cooked well with a side of broccolini. Enjoyed a salad to start off my meal that was light and fresh. I enjoyed the decor of the establishment with a fun bar area and you could watch the food being prepared. We started off with one waitress and finished our dining experience with a different waitress who was in training but she was very sweet. Overall enjoyable dining experience.

    Wonderful meal with wonderful service! Everything we had was really good to outstanding. I can't…read morerecommend the King Prawns enough. When it arrived I thought 'hmm shrimp is not as big as I'd have thought' but then I tasted it and the sauce, shrimp, bread and veggies together were one of the best shrimp dishes I've ever had. I even saved the left over sauce (had it put in a ramekin) and put it on my steak. It was that good. My wife got the pork chops special and it was good too but the beans that were served with it were spectacular. Beans??? I didn't know they could be spectacular. Truffle chips (fries) were quality too. The home made black sheep sticky toffee pudding was also a must try. Lastly, Gosia, our waitress, was knowledgeable and took great care of us. When we are in York, we will be back.
