Reviews in York

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.

As always, good food, not overly priced and served by helpful and interested staff.

Food is amazing, staff are very welcoming, we had to have a take away on New Year’s Eve bcos of Covid & the food was as good as ever , we will highly recommend this restaurant.

Amazing food, massive portions and really good atmosphere. Staff are always around to help, asked for the rest of our food to takeaway which was no issue and with us in 5 mins. Will definitely be back again.

Amazing as ever. Food and service excellent. This place is my all time favourite Chinese restaurant. I have been brought up on Maxi’s back in the days when they had a restaurant in leeds and I can firmly say that they have stuck to their high standards and are the only authentic place I would ever go for Chinese food in Yorkshire. Keep up the excellent work .

A wonderful evening with excellent service and delicious food. The best little restaurant in York! Our favourite place to eat, please try it.

The food was brilliant, service was excellent and very good value as we had a lot of food. Hard to judge atmosphere because of social distancing measures in place which were very well delivered including track and trace details and temperature tests on arrival. I really enjoyed the meal as did my family and Maxis is my favourite Chinese restaurant so I would always recommend it. Well done and Happy Christmas.
