Had a truly lovely dinner at this authentic French restaurant in York. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere transported us straight to France – warm, intimate, and full of charm.
The food was absolutely superb, especially the French onion soup, which was rich, deeply flavourful, and topped with perfectly melted cheese. It was honestly one of the best I’ve had. Every dish felt thoughtfully prepared and beautifully presented.
If you’re looking for a genuine French dining experience in York, this place is a gem. We’ll definitely be back! ✨

Oh, what an absolutely incredible meal I had at Rustique in York! The French onion soup was truly delightful, just bursting with flavor. I savored every single spoonful, it was pure comfort in a bowl. The ambiance of the restaurant was also so charming, making the whole experience even more special. I can’t stop thinking about that soup, it’s definitely a must-try. If you’re ever in York, I highly recommend a visit! It was a perfect evening spent enjoying delicious French cuisine. I’m already planning my next trip back for more!

Having read a review many months ago when planning a Christmas break in York, and booking Rustique on that recommendation it was get to experience something better.
Made to feel special from arrival to the very end, with fantastic food, simple, well presented and tasty French style. Onion soup was everything one could hope for. Bretton style chicken for me,whilst my partner had a generous portions of prawn and crab linguine and the third had steak frites.
Deserts again all different, creme brulee, banana crepe and a sticky toffee pudding. Fantastic
Staff were friendly helpful and fun ,- thank you

First time here . Amazing decor walking in absolutely love the john willman prints on the ceilings and the art work on the walls. Great service. Food was great apart from not much sauce or cream with the pasta so was quite dry . They did give us another dish which was better. Loved the pork with the Mustard mash but would have been better with some veg. Great staff could not fault and will definitely return. Thank you

Lovely meal at Rustique. Friendly service with a warm welcome into a nicely decorated dining area. Busy on a Sunday evening.
We ordered from the Set menu and bought 3 courses each. The French onion Soup was delicious and I am assured that yhe goats cheese and creamed mushrooms were also.
For the main, 3 of our party had the Steak and each opted for a different sauce option. I chose peppercorn and would recommend this. Steak was juicy and cooked well to a medium rare. Fries were thin and crispy.
For dessert I had the Tarte au citron. This was ok but I preferred the chocolate pot and creme brulee my dining partners were having (and I tried some of). Creme Brulee was very large, looked the best pick i.m.o.
I also had a glass of the Merlot this was nice.
The toilets were well decorated and flushed effectively.

We had a lovely meal at Rustique this evening to celebrate our anniversary. It was very cosy and romantic, the perfect atmosphere. The food was excellent, really good quality ingredients and very tasty. The staff were so nice and made us laugh a lot! Will definitely be back again next time we’re in York. Highly recommend

Love this local gem. Plenty of options for the 3 course set menu and it came up to under 30 quid per person! Friendly and attentive staff and delicious food with cozy vibes, what not to love 🙂

Superb French bistro cuisine. Had the snails, chicken liver pate and french onion soup to start; all were superb. The fillet de bouef for main and the duck breast, all cooked to perfection.
Incredible flavours. Highly recommend.

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
