Stu, York - 2/9/10 - "My Husband and I ate here Friday 19th March. It was wonderful, couldn't fault it, service exellent, food more than excellent!! Only have one comment to make, it would have been so lovely if there had been more than one vegetarian choice on the main menu, but as a veggie that is usually the case!"

Lynne & Will Garrett, Newcastle upon Tyne - 20/11/09 - "Another wonderful evening at Ate o clock on 11th Sept 09, celebrating our 10th Wedding Anniversary. Thank you for the Chateaubriand, a special touch! We always make a few bookings when visiting York, as the food and service is the best. Are looking forward to the 'Wild West' night on New Years Eve, along with 2 of our friends this time. See you soon Ate o clock xxxxxxx "

jo, grimsby - 12/10/09 - "Popped into "ate" this afternoon with my mum for some light lunch and felt compelled to let you know how much we both enjoyed the food, atmosphere and great service. The two waitresses were attentive and friendly and each course faultless. We're regulars to York so will certainly be back and recommending you to all our friends. Thankyou!!"
Matt , Pontefract - 24/9/09 - "Hi myself and partner called in on Saturday 22/08/09 and had the most gorgeous meal. We were the couple one who loved U2 (My partner) and myself who disliked them. I am a vegeterian and thoroughly enjoyed the mushroom lasagne and dinky pesto loaf. Paul couldn't praise the duo of pork enough. No doubt we will visit you again when we are next in York"
zoe, sheffield - 27/8/09 - "We had lunch at ate o'clock today and it was fabulous. The food was really tasty and brilliant value for money. The staff are friendly, cheery and helpful. We will definitely be paying it a return visit next time we're in York! "
Tracy & Andrew, Cheltenham - 21/8/09 - "Having been in York a year I decided to finally swing by and try this little place for a spot of lunch. Why didn’t I stop by sooner I ask myself, the food, service and atmosphere all fantastic, I will encourage everyone I know (and don’t!) to visit. Looking forward to my next visit…Thanks"
Lucy, Oswestry, Shropshire - 6/7/09 - "In my opinion - The best restaurant in York. Being a vegetarian it is sometimes a struggle to find exciting and appealing menu choices but this place really makes an effort and really delivers. Fantastic!"
Jessica, York - 26/6/09 - "We ate here on Saturday evening whilst on a weekend break in York. I'd booked the table after reading on line reviews on Yahoo - you're never quite sure how the reality will compare but Oh. My. God!!! The food was divine. The best meal we have EVER had. Reasonably priced, beautifully presented & cooked to perfection. This place is an aboslute gem. The waitresses were wonderful - friendly, helpful, gave recommendations on the dishes & service was prompt & efficient. We live over an hour's drive away but will definitely be returning on a regular basis to dine here. It made a very special weekend away truly memorable. Thank you!"
Louisa, Swinton, Greater Manchester - 8/6/09 - "I was visiting a friend in York last weekend and booked us a table on the Saturday evening, can I just say what a fantastic meal we had. My spicy Thai fishcakes and lamb shank were cooked to perfection and Julie's starter of spare ribs was the size of a main course in some places, she then couldn't finish her beautiful sirloin steak as it was so big! The service was smooth and quick and the staff were all very friendly, even Kenny himself stopped by our table to check everything was OK. I would definitely recommend Ate O'Clock to anyone who plans a meal out in York, it should be at the top of their list."
Tom, Edinburgh - 17/5/09 - "When I heard that Kenny had his own place in York, I knew we had to try it on our next visit there. I was not in any way disappointed. The belly pork was incredible, chicken divine and chocolate panna cotta exquisite. We now have a new favourite place to go in York. Funny that Kenny was the chef at our old favourite too...!"
Jonathan and Abby Salmon, Minneapolis - 18/4/09 - "To Kenny & Jane,
My wife and I were priviledged to eat in your restaurant last night (table by the staircase) and would like to thank your for an excellent meal. We should also like to congratulate you for the courtesy of your staff, and for the excellent service they provided, and we look forward to seeing you in the future.
All the best, Jeff & Adele "

The food was excellent and the staff were amazing. We loved it and will definately be back. Thank you for making a special night perfect!"
Emma & David, Holmfirth - 16/2/09 - "From time to time, part of the fun of eating out is finding that special place; well this restaurant is secreted at the bottom of a quiet passageway near the centre of York - a real find! I found the place relaxing, friendly with welcoming staff. The service had that personal touch, not stuffy but just spot on awareness where needed. It’s not a large establishment, just nice and cosy.
Familiar food on the menu with interesting diversity made it an easy choice. Our food was delivered fresh and on the whole was sourced locally, which was good to see. It was cooked to order straight from the kitchen.
An establishment I would have no qualms recommending for any occasion, including those imperative business lunches."
Neil, Ashby de la Zouch - 3/2/09 - "We had a fantastic meal in Jan'09 and will definitely be back again. Atmosphere, food and service all faultless. Loved the sea bass with olives and sun dried toms, and the fat chips! Lovely to meet the Chef (Kenny) and tell him so."
Paul Green, Bridlington - 29/1/09 - "We've been coming to York for about 2-3 years now, and on each visit, we always make a bee-line for 'Ate o clock'. The food and service is the best. The Belly Pork starter (at the beginning of Oct.) was the best we have ever eaten! Love the Fillet Steak and Fat chips too. Kenny's personal touch makes all the difference and his staff are always so polite & helpful. Oh, and loved the Fruit Parcel Dessert from the summer menu - divine! We are returning to York at New Year and have already booked for New Years Eve, along with our 2 friends this time. We are really looking forward to it. See you soon xxxxxxx "
Sharon & Stephen Wood, Blackpool - 15/10/08 - "Finding the right place in Central York to entertain our American friends is always a challenge but not so at Ate O'Clock. The food choice provided was excellent, the quality and presentation of all meals, truly superb, and the atmosphere, wonderful, added to by the musician. The service we received from arrival to departure was spot-on. Our waiter was very attentive and professional and we enjoyed the interaction and humour of the other members of the team. What also meant a huge amount to us was the chef-owner's visit during our meal and that he found the time on a very busy evening to come and say goodbye. We had high expectations following our previous visit and these were most certainly surpassed in every way. Perfection! Ate O'clock is certainly the number one restaurant in York, which we are recommending. Long may they reign.

Susan Kitchener, York - 10/9/08 - "Just wanted to compliment Kenny on his fantastic restaurant. Just returned from a wonderful meal which couldnt have been any closer to perfection! This is our 4th visit and I continue to be impressed by the selection and quality of the menu. We will be back again shortly.
Thankyou!"
Miss Rhodes, Kellington - 19/8/08 - "My daughter told me about this little treasure, and she was right everything was perfect from the minute we walked in until the time we left, keep up the good work Kenny we will be back soon. Karen and Freddy, Wallasey"
Karen Mills, Wallasey - 17/6/08 - "Came for lunch today. The menu looked enticing, thought I would give the Blackboard menu a try. My locally produced pork and leek sausages were delightful along with the balsamic roasted tomatoes. The rest of my family enjoyed the experience as well. I'm definitely coming again:-) "
Stephan, Leconfield - 24/5/08 - "Have eaten here 3 times and each time it gets better. Kenny Noble is a fantastic chef who seems to genuinely care about his customers. The staff are very polite and attentive and the ambience is fantastic. Neither myself or any of the people who have dined with me could fault the food. And the guy with the guitar just made it perfect! Can't recommend enough!!"
Nicky Howard, York - 5/4/08 - "My boyfriend took me here for valentines weekend and it was fantastic. The food was cooked to perfection and the staff were very friendly. Kenny the owner came to greet us and later came for a chat to check everything was ok and of course it was!! When you walk in its very welcoming and they are never in a rush to get you out again. We will definately be returning very soon, well worth the 2 hours drive from my home town!!! "
Stacey, wirral - 31/3/08 - "Can't wait to visit again! The best place to eat in York by far, It was perfection for us, from entering till leaving all was faultless! thanks."
sheryl & mark, york - 27/3/08 - "We eat at ate o'clock as often as possible and are always blown away by the quality of the food. Everything about the restaurant is sublime. It is a little oasis of perfection in York's sea of poor restaurants. Thankyou!"
Laura & Adam, York - 29/2/08 - "Had a lovely meal - thanks for everything, we will see you again soon!"
