The 30 Best Sushi in York

“Went to Brew York for a couple of beers and found they have a food company selling Asian inspired street food. You wouldn’t believe how good it was! One of the best katsu chicken I’ve ever had and the salt and pepper hash browns were something else!! Absolutely amazing food.”

“Had a lovely meal here. Fresh food, nicely cooked and presented. Nice music, very friendly chatty staff. Also fairly priced. Recommended !”

“Came here with my mum and nana after shopping and we all really enjoyed it. The food came out hot and fresh — I had the katsu curry and it was spot on. My mum and nana both liked their meals too, and the staff were super friendly and patient with us. It was a bit busy (since it’s in the outlet), but the atmosphere was still chill and the service was quick. Prices are a little on the higher side, but you get good portions and quality food. Overall, really nice spot to grab something tasty after a day of shopping. Would definitely go again”

“I shall not be getting chips from here again because I couldn’t eat them…..the reason why I couldn’t eat them was because the fish was fookin massive!!!! 1st time I’ve got from here in 35yrs & best fish I’ve had in god knows how long, right up to the end of the batter on both sides. Fabulous.”

“I visited your store this morning to buy some wine. What I wanted was not on the shelf...again. However an extremely polite youg man called Tom came and asked if he could help. I explained my requirements and he checked and found the wine I wanted had just arrived in the warehouse. He offered to go and get it. 5 minutes later he returned with my requirements 6 bottles of a Rhone. He was so polite and pleasant and would like you to note and thank him.

“Excellent service, even though it was starting to get busy with lunch time rush, staff were very helpful and friendly. Food is no longer collect from the conveyor due to covid, but order via a QR code, even though the app wasn't working properly, order went through and made fresh to order. Highly recommended!”

“Use Buffalo pizza with the work clan on night shifts and everyone very impressed.”

“DEST PLACE. Love your food. Thanks everyone”

“Excellent service from the staff yesterday. Somehow I managed to order a pizza with no cheese (blasphemy!!) and didn't realise until it was too late to add it and they had already cooked my pizza. I had asked to order another one and forfeit the money as it was my mistake and they offered to remake my pizza for me free of charge. Obviously the look of disappointment of a cheesless pizza on my face said it all, I couldn't cope with eating a pizza with no cheese! And best of all it was piping hot, fresh, and delicious!! Well played Dominos!”

“Have been using Pizza Time for years, friendly service and by far the best pizza/burgers in our area.”

“Lovely Italian restaurant in York! We had pizza for lunch and it was really delicious. The staff were extremely kind and helpful, especially with our wheelchair, which made the experience very comfortable for us. Great food, great service, and a very welcoming atmosphere. Highly recommended!”

“Everything was perfect. Really nice atmosphere, great food. Couldn’t have been happier”

“Our group of eight Thai ladies absolutely loved the food here! Every dish we ordered tasted just like the authentic Thai food we’re used to back home. You can choose your preferred spice level—from mild to true Thai extra spicy, which we really appreciated. If we ever visit York again, we’ll definitely come back. There are a few Thai restaurants in our town, but most of them have adapted their flavours to suit British tastes. Tah Tien, on the other hand, delivers the real thing. We highly recommend it to anyone looking for an authentic Thai dining experience.”

“Wow what a find We did a search for dog friendly places to have lunch in York. I have to say this is without a doubt the best pizza I have ever had. Hands down 100% my wife had the one with a whole Italian burrata so creamy I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a good pizza”

“The Block is a great spot for pizza, we popped in for a quick bite and a pint with not much time to spare. You can select which pizzas you want varying from £4-5 and they do you a large rectangular slice cut into 2 (we shared). As a recommendation, it's the perfect spot for a quick bite before doing something else for the evening. Staff were friendly, pizza was nice and they had good music on and a good selection of drinks, including brooklyn lager on draught!”

“Had lunch here with my Japanophile teenage son who rated the food "the best Japanese food he's had in the UK". It was great though, very simple, traditional, but full of flavour. The service was nice, attentive without being overbearing but with a smile and a laugh, and our plates food were demolished in no time. A good sign was the number of Japanese customers dining, which to me is a real indication of the quality and authenticity of the food. Definitely will be paying Shiitakeya another visit next time in York.”

“A friend brought us here in the pouring rain. We were originally going to the other japanese restaurant for sushi, but decided to stay for their tea. We got the Yame Gyokuro and Kuromame cha. As my wife is a tea fanatic, I believe we can say that they were certainly high quality. The waiter said that the Kuromame was roasted in-house, and you can tell a lot of care was put into these teas as their flavours were superb and not very tannic. The yame gyokuro has a lovely umami taste and leaves a wonderful aftertaste in your mouth, and the kuromame cha, for a lack of a better term, tasted like a really light coffee without the bitterness. The waiter also recommended their mochi to go with it, and we got the yuzu mochi and matcha mochi. The matcha was perfectly sweet and done well. Sometimes restaurants burn their matcha but this was not the case. The yuzu mochi really stood out to me as a citrus lover. It had the brightness of an orange, and was not too overpowering, much like a gentle lemon zest. I highly recommend trying this. as it is one of my new favourites. After the tea and snacks we decided to stay. We had okonomiyaki and gyudon, which are something me and my partner make often at home. We're very picky eaters, so we were very surprised that it was delicious and tasted similar to the way we prepare them. I wasn't expecting the sake taste in the gyudon, and it definitely elevated the flavour. The okonomiyaki was equally as delicious and well cooked, although I wish we could have ordered a protein with it! We also ordered fried oysters with their yuzu tartar, and as a first time oyster eater, I want to say that they are extremely delicious and could not recommend them more. There is a gentle crisp crunch on the outside and then a nice tanginess from the tartar, and they just melt in your mouth. For dessert we had a matcha cream roll with strawberries, and this was also very well made. The matcha cake itself was not too sweet, and was balanced out by the sweetness of the cream and strawberries. They even reserved this cake for after we finished eating as there was only two left! Our waiter Homme was very kind to us and made sure that we were served well. We learned a little bit about York today as we do not live here, and their service to us was wonderful. They also explained in detail about our dishes and the way they are made. Truly made our night! Thank you for taking some time out of your busy schedule to talk to us. ☺️ We sat on the outside garden as well which has heaters to keep us warm and a lovely cozy japanese scenery of plants. The atmosphere here is lovely. I also strongly appreciate their small collection of artisan goods. I love when restaurants collaborate with independent artists! They had lots of essential japanese cooking goods as well, and I also grabbed some of their high quality tea on the way out. What was a bit of a miserable night turned into a great experience, and I couldn't have asked for a better Halloween evening. I would highly recommend this place if you are looking for authentic Japanese home-style cooking. Thank you Homme!”

“What a beautiful restaurant, amazing food and fantastic value for money. Highly recommend here. Couples sat downstairs and larger groups or those with kids upstairs. The service was impeccable and the decor was perfect. We told them they missed our wine off the bill but they said not to worry and left it off”

“Great restaurant, we’ve been a few times now. The staff are always friendly, the food is good quality and the atmosphere is warm and welcoming. Never had a bad meal, always had a great time! Will be back!”

“This is the best Chinese food in York, incredibly affordable with the most delicious flavors. The staff are exceptionally friendly. I come here every week. It might just be the best Chinese food in the UK.”

“Quick and clean street food. My friend had the tofu bahn mee and I had these 5 spice chicken loaded chips with siracha mayo. Plenty going on in the open section of Leeds Market. Proper street food atmosphere”

“One of my favourite Thai places in York. The food here is absolutely delicious and great as a dine in or takeaway option. The gluten free options are clearly labelled on the menu with quite a few different dishes being gf. The only thing to note is that when I said I was a coeliac, I was told the gf labelled fish cakes wouldn't be suitable due to cooking methods creating cross contamination. While it is really good that the staff are so well trained in dietary requirements and were able to tell me this clearly to prevent me from getting poorly, it is a shame that something labelled gluten free on the menu wasn't ultimately suitable for coeliacs. They instead advised a different gluten free starter which ended being fantastic.”

“Very tasty food for a reasonable price. We especially liked shrimps, tasted very much liked from Sardinian and mushroom risotto. Calamari in seafood salad were very good too. Wine was ok Be aware that you need to bring cash as they don’t accept card payment”

“Got to be the best Italian food we’ve had in York! Everything was fresh, perfect textures and temperatures, packed with flavour and good portion sizes. Amazing authentic gelato for dessert. Solid selection of vegan options. Great service.”

“Yet another awesome sushi restaurant of which there seems to have been an explosion of in recent years which is fab! Beautifully light and crisp mixed tempura, gorgeous fresh sashimi (the mackerel seemed particularly good) and a delicious rainbow roll (I think it was). We then had a couple of the special desserts - apple gyozas and an ice-cream ball rolled in dessicated coconut, dipped in tempura batter and deep fried. Amazing! Wonderful, friendly and polite service and lovely atmosphere. Another one to recommend!”

“now, let me start this review by saying, i’ve hated pizza all my life. pizza has always been one of those foods i rolled my eyes at once mum said we’d be getting some. me and some mates came here after they begged and spoke of how good this pizza was, and i’ve never been happier about trusting friends. this pizza has changed my life morals and ethics. the soft dough, perfect ratio of sauce to cheese. now i love ordering here for a cheeky slice. the workers? nicest people i’ve ever met. honestly, so kind and quick, even on a busy friday.”

“Very happy that I checked them out. Great pizza, fair prices.”

“The food is excellent and the customer service is on top! Highly recommend! Thanks for the drinks!”

“We stumbled into this location while taking a stroll around the city. We made the wise decision to try Rad pizza! The staff who assisted us was courteous and friendly. Ten stars for the pizza! Rich in taste, the foundation is flawless, well-done!”
