Reviews in York

Booked to eat here because our hotel couldn't fit us in. The meal was so much better than we'd had at the hotel the night before. Excellent set menu. Very good value.

Dined here on the 28th May 2021. What a nice little find! Compact & unfussy menu with a good choice of "Specials" & a "Set Menu". Simple food VERY well executed. Staff were attentives & courteous. Recommended. Andrew Turner

Had our evening meal here on a thursday night the restaurant was quiet full but thats ok nice spacing between table meant it was cover safe. My wife and I dined from the set menu the food was was very good at a really reasonable price, whats not to like.

Excellent food, massive portions so be warned. Great friendly staff, wouldn't hesitate to go back. Only negative bit is you should get boiled rice included and not have to pay extra

Amazing as always, everyone friendly. Used to eat here every sunday. People are amazing!

Unexpected find but what a treat! Definitely worth visiting if you're after something a bit different. The table grill and jap chea were both delicious and the service was very friendly. Would recommend.

Outstanding food… had a Sunday lunch. We could not find any fault with the quality of the food served . Nice restaurant set near Cliffords Tower . Varied menu and good selection of wines/spirits A must visit if in York . Will be regular from now on . Thanks Castlegate x

My wife and I have recently had a meal, it was the first weekend of inside dining. The organisation, service and the quality of the food was excellent. I will be recommending anybody visiting York to book a meal.

Fantastic meal as always, our favourite Chinese in York! Can’t wait to visit again soon

Sunday lunch was excellent as usual. We have had regular take outs through lock down which have been great. It was good to get back to the restaurant as normal and food, service and surroundings were lovely with nothing ever too much trouble. Thanks to Nick and the team.

Lovely surroundings, pleasant, attentive service, good food and good value for money. This is our 'local' and of a consistently high quality.

Another fabulous meal with quality ingredients cooked to perfection and excellent value for money . Lovely surroundings and professional, friendly staff. Will be back soon

After waiting a VERY long time during lockdowns I ,and members of my family had a most enjoyable meal on Thursday It was a pleasure to get back to this excellent restaurant. Food just as good as always !

I discovered this authentic Chinese restaurant and will be returning every time I am in York. Having traveled to Singapore, Sydney and Hong Kong many times, the dim sum dishes were excellent.

Staff excellent .food out of this world. We live in north wales and we always look forward to come to Maxis.

31 Castlegate is one of our favourite restaurants. The service is friendly but professional, it’s a lovely small restaurant but the tables are well spaced. But most importantly, the food is outstanding. On our most recent trip we chose from the good value fixed price menu. I had a lovely salmon and smoked haddock fishcake, my husband an excellent crispy pork. My main course risotto was perfectly cooked and an excellent combination of flavours. My husband was also wowed by his confit duck with spinach and dauphinoise potatoes. Great selection of wines too. Highly recommended.

Came here just before New Year Lovely meal and service. Social distancing and other Covid measures in place. Would return.

I come here with my little girl and food is always really nice and hot, always goes out of the way and make us feel welcome every time.
