The best restaurants serving Italian food in Guildhall York Yorkshire and The Humber

Authentic Italian in the heart of York Loved everything Friendly welcome True family vibe here tried Lunch Menu had Tomato soup (exceptional) followed by Seabass (omg) Mrs had garlic mushrooms and chicken with a mushroom sauce (proper chicken) generous portions and excellent value House Wine Fab too did not have room for sweet will defo be back when in York!

Had arancini which were tepid so took them back to be reheated, one was still lukewarm, would have been better freshly made -

Popped in for a quick lunch. Excellent pizzas, fresh ingredients, light & crispy base. Fast service. Would recommend for pizzas.

Excellent coffee. Good strong Americana served in a sensible sized cup and not drowned in a mug. I was in early so the cafe was quiet and the barista was wrestling with the coffee machine. Good to know that they know how to fix their own machines.

Busy. Really nice staff who helped me to charge my phone as needed it to orientate myself. Really nice. The pizza was yum...deffowithin the top 5 of pizzas I've ever had. Go!

Some of the best coffee and desserts we’ve ever had!

No pudimos resistirnos a entrar a este fabuloso café cuando miramos por la ventana y vimos los fabulosos postres. Teníamos cappucino y canelones de pistacho sin gluten, absolutamente para morirse. Por lo tanto, no se pierda este gran establecimiento.

Excellent food but a little pricey

From street level this looks like a shop with a deli bar. But upstairs is a surprisingly old school dark wood dining room. First, we came on a weekday lunch and I think they'd benefit by having a specific lunch menu. They don't, so we were left with the general a la carte. It's not the cheapest, but they do go for the quality fresh homemade pasta angle (no pizza here!). The seafood is good too. The staff are Italian, you get "prego" on delivery of your items and the food is good. The food wipes the floor with Delrios for instance, which seems to be the central York Italian with the best online ratings. Enjoyed the meal, though the coffee was a bit disappointing.

Always book here whenever we are in York. The food is amazing and it has a real buzzy atmosphere, which we love. This time we had the arancini off the specials board then a pizza and risotto, all faultless. House wine delicious too. It’s a running joke that we always get seated close to the toilet but I am not bothered here as everything else makes up for it! Pay it a visit it won’t disappoint!!

Lovely place, food was of excellent quality. Would highly recommend.

Cool dining area and great food 👍

Unfortunately the Luxury Ice Cream Company online menu is wrong. I was there on Sunday afternoon intending to have a banana split and buy my grand-daughter a Biscoff sundae but neither of these was on offer. The LICC did not respond to my email the day before our visit and their telephone number was not recognised. Having said that, the ice cream we did have was delicious.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Tuve una experiencia increíble en La Bottega en York! Desde el momento en que entré, el ambiente era cálido y acogedor, con una sensación encantadora y auténtica. La comida era absolutamente excepcional — cada plato era fresco, sabroso y bellamente presentado. Realmente se puede saborear la calidad de los ingredientes. El servicio fue igual de impresionante. El personal era amable, atento, y me hizo sentir realmente bienvenido. Estaban encantados de ofrecer recomendaciones y se aseguraron de que todo fuera perfecto durante toda la comida. En general, La Bottega superó mis expectativas en todos los sentidos. Si estás en York y buscas comida deliciosa, buen servicio y un ambiente acogedor, ¡este es el lugar para ir! Muy recomendable!

Arranged to meet up with several family members for a late lunch. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed what they had and staff were very accommodating to 2 of the party who had been delayed by a problem on the railway. Would be very happy to return if ever in York again. I like that they specify how long you have the table booked for.
