Fantastic service from Danielle and team as always. Made to feel very welcome. Thank you

Really lovely food, well presented and a great choice - we had a bento box, a sushi set, and yaki-soba, all very tasty and good value. They had Sapporo black beer which went down a treat with the spicy noodles. Lovely people - the sushi chef - who was very busy on a Saturday night - found time to thank us. Small restaurant, nively decorated, would recommend booking at busy times

We were served my Maria ! She was excellent and the restaurant offered such amazing service. The food was exceptional and we got free shots at the end! SAMBUCA was the highlight of our night !

Friendly staff and a nice atmosphere. The menu was limited, particularly for the gluten free and vegetarian people in our group. Portions were on the small side for the prices and the vegetable risotto only contained peas. Nevertheless we enjoyed our meal and family time. Would like to see the takeaway pizza menu return along with a gluten free pizza.

My wife and I enjoyed a very good meal recently. The food was very good and enjoyable. The service was excellent.

great food

We had such a lovely meal in your restaurant on Thursday 14th April. The food was gorgeous and the service was excellent. A really lovely atmosphere with very friendly and polite, helpful staff. Thank you.

Great food and service. Thanks for going the extra mile for my Mums 70th

Another great night at Sambuca. Staff attentive and food was spot on

Had high expectations which I didn't think would be met. However the food was amazing. My starter of pickled trout was sensational. Our mains were also very good and well presented . The care into the little flavours was great. Wine was good, liked the fact it was a limited choice. I'm no restauranter so it's my humble opinion but i think the decor needs a change. After speaking to the maitrede I understand their thinking , but just feel like a bit of greenery or art might work. With the food on offer this place is golden , and I think a few tweaks would really make this place the number one place to go.

Never had a bad meal at Brooks. Brought two more new friends with us on Friday evening. Tried a few new dishes that we haven’t had before and some firm favourites. They were all delicious and not a single morsel was left. The owners and staff were attentive and friendly but never rushed us. The atmosphere was just right for a ten year reunion - we spent the evening laughing, catching up and celebrating with bubbles. We’ll definitely be back - again!

As usual our meal at Maxis York was delishious. We have never been disappointed. We always order too much, but they pack it up and we enjoy the left overs the next day. The staff are lovely. Wouldnt change anything .

Customer service was amazing the young girl who served us was really pleasant . The food was delicious . Overall we all enjoyed ourselves

Lovely place, great staff and great service too

We had a delicious meal at Brooks last night. We were greeted with a very warm welcome. The food was delicious, the staff were great. My only complaint was the heat inside the restaurant. We were on top floor and the temperature was so high it was uncomfortable. We were all sweating so much we couldn't wait to get out of there!! There was an attempt to cool it down with fans but they were not powerful enough. It was a shame because the rest of the experience was good. We probably would have had a desert and another drink but we could not cope with the heat any longer.

I found it not easy to book a reservation online for the John Paul Jones. I only managed to do this after ringing the reception at the Bay, Filey where a very friendly and efficient receptionist emailed a link to me. The staff and atmosphere at the restaurant were very good. The menu could have done with more vegetarian/ vegan options. and also more gluten free options. I felt that the food was well prepared and tasty on the whole, but portions were on the small side for their cost, such as the fish and chips and pizzas and childrens' pizzas.

Easy to see why this is so popular. Great welcome and friendly service. Warm attractive room. Innovative menu with unusual Sri Lancan dishes. With a tapas style selection some are bound to be more to your taste than others but overall, no complaints and will return. Recommend Vegetable Rice, Courgette Lollipops, Beef Carpaccio, Raspberry Slice with superb Gin and Elderflower Sorbet. Good choice of wines at reasonable prices.

Food and staff 5 stars the owner who has no idea how to run a restaurant and has closed this place down yet again thats 4 times to my knowledge he gets zero stars
