We called in for lunch this weekend as we were craving tapas. We’ve been to the restaurant in Leeds before but not York. You order everything via their website and pay on the website as well. We started with a bottle of Rioja, it turned...up within seconds of it being ordered. Followed by some light bites of bread and stuffed dates which again quickly arrived. Followed again by 5 tapas dishes (potatoes/chorizo, lamb, meatballs, fish croquettes and sausage). Followed by another bottle of Rioja. The speed of service was impressive and the food was tasty. The lamb was a little tough though. We very much enjoyed our meal!More

Poor service - 4/5 tapas dishes came out, then I saw our final fish sitting on the side and our waitress was chatting to her colleague for a while instead of bringing it over. So when the final dish arrived I’d basically finished my meal....Lamb was so chewy, such a shame!! Our waitress asked how everything was, we politely said the lamb was chewy but otherwise lovely - and she didn’t say a word, (in my book good service would say at least “I’m sorry about that” but this waitress didn’t care. Other dishes were lovely. Had potential to be lovely dinner, big shame really!!More

Great place, great staff and delicious food. Would definitely recommend and would definitely eat there again. Vegetable paella was delicious! Thanks all involved!

Our first night in York since Lockdown 2.0 and we booked this restaurant via a very pleasant lady who returned my call and voice message. We were relieved we had! Upon arrival we were met by a full restaurant and a very welcoming chap who...showed us upstairs. Friday at 19:45 and our table was the only empty one in the house, a very good sign! The very attentive Chloe gave us clear instructions on how to follow their Covid secure ordering system, easy to access, order and to pay for our food and drinks. The tapas came out piping hot and was extremely tasty, washed down with a white Rioja that danced on the palette! The paella came next and we did our best to make a dent in it, but were only able to consume half of the dish between the two of us. Thank you to Chloe for making our evening so pleasant, a real credit to the restaurant and the Ambiente brand.More

Excellent Food/ wine and Service! Tapas dishes themselves were stunning!! Really liked the fact we had to order food directly from the app, this helped us enjoy our tapas at a steady pace.

Absolutely amazing food and service. Recommend 100%. Very reasonably priced for the quality. Will definitely be coming back!

The restaurant has a nice atmosphere, with very friendly and knowledgeable staff who provided fantastic service. The dishes we had on the night were all superb. This was not the first time I have been here and certainly won't be the last. Highly recommended for...an enjoyable tapas experience in York.More
