Wonderful dinner experience at the York Bistro tonight. The service was outstanding by the two excellent, friendly and knowledgeable staff. Our dietary requirements were no problem at all for the chef and kitchen team and the food was amazing with thoughtful presentation. Can thoroughly recommend this place if you want a special meal and experience! Will definitely be back 👍

A place that celebrates local produce and wineries. Offering bespoke wine collection from the Wairarapa region in one cosy place. We were in a treat to attend a Jazz ensemble prior to our dinner. The restaurant offers their venue for local talent on special occasions. Their collection of art pieces are gallery worthy, my favorite art-piece - ‘Human’. We tried ‘Dry River’ Pinot Noir, a vintage indeed. I had a Kingfish who did receive a true royal brioche-lemongrass match making. Our luxury experience was matched by ‘D’ for Dean’s ‘D’ for Delightful customer service.

Too tired to cook so ended up at York Bistro. What an experience. All I can say is fantastic, we were royally looked after, atmosphere calming , menu great for everyone, food to die for. Congratulations to the chef,inspired cooking. We had a superb evening, couldn't fault it. Our grateful thanks.
