Fabulously fun and exciting food served in a beautifully decorated family-feel restaurant - excellently stocked wine cellar and bubbly service from the staff. A little gem, and dare I say, better than the Michelin restaurant we went to for lunch - deserves a visit!

We went for my partner's birthday and this place blew us away. Absolutely incredible food and amazing service! We went for the set 3 course menu but it is more than enough because you get a canapé course and amuse bouche as well! They had a sommelier who helped us pair wines with our food, all the waiters were so lovely and took the time to explain everything to us, we felt so welcome and at home. Thank you for such a memorable evening!

What a lovely little place tucked away in a cool little part of York. As per other reviews, the food and service were very good. Michelin star food without the pretentious air of needing to maintain a star! We had the three course menu (stuffed morel and the eel, then the cod and the lamb. Strawberries and the soufflé). In addition they start with 3 canapés, bread and some extra treats after dessert. Nothing to fault. Bill came to £220 for the 3-courses, a bottle of wine and tip.

This was our first visit to Meltons, following recommendation from friends who have been going for years. We had an early evening dinner before the theatre, so we were under a bit of time pressure. We had let the restaurant know at the time of booking and they did everything to accommodate an amazing meal within the hour we had available. Next time we visit, we will definitely allow longer and enjoy the full tasting menu, although the three course menu was really fantastic, and came with little surprise tasters too. It was great value at £80 per head. The staff were all very knowledgeable, friendly, efficient and knew the food and wine menus inside out. Really highly recommend.

Wow wow wow. Booked this dinner as a treat for my partner on his 30th celebration trip to York and it was the highlight! We didn’t want to eat some of the food for fear of it disappearing from the plate! Wine pairings took the tasting menu to the next tier. Being able to swap out any dishes from the tasting menu with the equivalent from the short menu allowed you to taste even more! Service was impeccable all night long. Would definitely recommend to anyone who enjoys fine dining.

Visited last night, we were warmly greeted and seated, offered water for the table and presented with a variety of menu's ( tasting, short, short wine and full wine list) we had pre-decided we were going for the tasting menu with wine flight. The restaurant was comfortably busy, but we were given the perfect amount of attention. The tasting menu and wine pairing were spot on. All dishes and wines were appealing and tasty, we even tried our first "orange wine" we were very impressed with the quality of food, and the knowledge and approachability of front of house. We won't go into great detail regarding the dishes as no one wants a spoiler, but every dish was worth the visit. We have added ourselves to the mailing list, and have recommended to our family and friends. We will definitely visit again.

This is the second time we have visited Melton’s and we were not disappointed. The food is excellent, so tasty and a lot of elements to the food. The restaurant is quite small but has a lovely atmosphere. Staff are so knowledgeable about the food but are very friendly and welcoming. This is not a stuffy restaurant at all. Everyone should try Melton’s, you will not be disappointed - we will definitely be back again next time in York.
