Skosh

Exceptional quality of food, with friendly service, and the whole place has such a nice vibe. The only downside were the spiced dumplings, which were unseasoned and bland. Honestly zero flavour. Disappointed. Strongly recommend going with the oysters instead. Wanted to give a very special mention to the scallops as well. Truly delicious. Everything else was great, and the price was so very reasonable.

We’ve been to many Michelin restaurants, but Skosh fell short. While the food was great, and well presented, it wasn’t anything that gave a wow. This was also challenged by the lack of a warm service and lighting in the back room beside the kitchen that was way too bright. Through a few small updates, Skosh could be fantastic, but it’s not there yet.

Came here for a special birthday which was a good choice! The food was delicious in a chilled out atmosphere! Highly recommend and will be back the next time I’m in York

Really nice place on a cute street with Asian inspired sharing plates that punch. Walked in without a reservation at lunch and shared 6 dishes between two, mostly focusing on veg - with one memorable fried chicken massam-type dish (not veg, obviously). Nothing too surprising but all very tasty and generous in size. Perhaps a little too reliant on chili flakes. Bill came to £65 without wine which felt a good price.

A truly wonderful dining experience. Neil and his team are running an absolute gem of a restaurant. Food is delicious , staff are friendly, attentive without being overbearing and very knowledgeable. No hesitation in recommending Skosh to anyone. Already planning my next visit !

Skosh in York is a remarkable dining experience that truly deserves a Michelin star. The restaurant offers an innovative Pan Asian menu, with standout dishes like the pork belly with prawn paste—a must-try for Singaporeans who love Ha Cheong Gai. This dish combines rich flavors with a unique twist, showcasing the chef’s creativity. Each dish is beautifully presented and bursting with flavor, highlighting the skill and imagination of the culinary team. The ambiance is chic and contemporary, though I did wish it was a bit less bright—slightly dimmer lighting would have enhanced the overall atmosphere. The service is attentive and knowledgeable, further elevating the dining experience with thoughtful recommendations and seamless service. I have a feeling that prices might increase the next time I visit, so I’m grateful to have experienced it today. Overall, Skosh offers an exceptional Pan Asian dining experience with its inventive menu, elegant setting, and outstanding service. Michelin should definitely consider awarding them a star. It’s a must-visit for anyone seeking a top-notch culinary experience in York.

We have waited a while to go to Skosh and we weren't disappointed. The service was friendly and professional and the food was outstanding. The duck liver mousse on toast was my particular favourite and the birthday cake dessert made me feel like a child again 😊 it was delicious. There was a great selection of drinks and the botanical cocktail was fabulous. We can't wait to return when we can get in again. Thanks Skosh team.

It's great! So you get a menu of maybe 15 "small" plate sharing choices and you pick however many you want Guide would be 3 per person and you wouldn't want less because you'd miss out; but 3 each is PLENTY Everything we had was beautiful with the Cod & the beetroot (I don't even like beetroot) lingering in the memory Desert, as ever in these kind of places is essential Only trouble is it's impossible to book a table at the weekend...with good reason

Spectacular food and service at this Michelin-rated contemporary British restaurant. I was curious to try this place as the food served here has an international influence, especially of Asian cuisine. The menu changes frequently and is viewable online. Plates are tapas style with a suggestion of ordering 3-4 per person. We had the following, all of which were unique and delicious. I would definitely recommend the famous "hen's egg" that had such an interesting combination of slow-cooked egg yolk puree on top and crispy cheese and leeks in black vinegar caramel on the bottom. Snacks: - hen's egg - summerfields, leek & black vinegar (£4.50) - padron peppers, smoked cods roe, crispy pork skin & chilli oil (£8) - puris of duck liver mousse with plum & furikake (£8) Raw: - sea trout cured in kecap manis with lime & peanut (£4) Vegetarian: - cauliflower pakoras - mint, tamarind & yogurt (£9) - beetroot & strawberry with sesame & nasturtium (£9) Fish: - miso glazed hake with courgette, feves & sunflower seed pesto (£18.50) Meat: - crispy pork belly with watermelon, peanut & nam pla (£12) Afters: - lanark blue 'trifle' - garden rhubarb, pickled beets, sorrel & buckwheat (£8.50) - yuzu pav' - raspberry, rose & pink peppercorn (£9.50) Reserve in advance if planning to dine here. Only 9:15 PM was available for the Saturday of our stay in York even when booking a month early. We were seated at a high table next to the open kitchen and were able to watch the chefs prepare the food. Almost all the tables were full during our two hour stay.

Bit of a mixed bag review Pros; wait staff were incredible, friendly and knowledgeable The food was hit or miss but what did hit (tandoori pigeon, popcorn chicken) was really really good. Cons; I dined on a Saturday night and the part of town the restaurant in is basically drunk person central. Just gangs of roving screaming drunk teenagers as far as the eye can see. Made the walk here very unpleasant Fellow diners; for a Michelin recommended restaurant, half of my fellow patrons were belligerently inebriated. I almost got into a fight waiting to get my table. Might just be York in general, but it definitely marred my experience. I know it's not the restaurants fault, but it is what it is Price; a little inflated for what you get. Not terrible but definitely charging you for a Michelin experience you don't quite receive So overall: good but not great

I stopped by this small lovely place for the end of my visit in York and it was an amazing place. We didn't have enough time to enjoy all the dishes so we tried 5 of them- fried califower, fried chicken, spicy beef tartar, chargegrilled Octopus and lamb belly. Fried califower- it's crispy outside but so tender inside with all the amazing spices. Fried chicken- it might be the most plain dish of these 5 but was pretty tender enough. Spicy beefy tartar- my favorite one from the 5. It's just so amazing with fresh beef and tasty sauce. Chargedgrilled octopus- it's a lit small compare to the price but the octopus was really tender. The lamb belly- it's tender and juicy. The only part I didn't like it that much was I still can taste the stinky part from the lamb. The service was great and the interior was cozy and nice. I really like this place and will come back if I am going to York again!

Skosh is a small restaurant in York. If you don't pay attention, you will pass them by easily. I highly recommend either making a reservation or coming before the dinner rush and hope there's a table available. They serve small dishes and they recommend choosing 3-4 per person but you can easily order a lot more. We tried to sample as much as the menu as we could. Note: I think they change the menu a bit according to seasonal ingredients, but this is a bit of what we had.

Small plates with fantastic flavors and textures! We had crispy pork, duck liver mousse, probably the best beets I've ever had, a raw scallop pizza, grilled octopus and lamb carpaccio. I don't think you could go wrong with any selection. We sat at the chef's bar and were impressed with how many cooks they had and how seamlessly everything was plated. The wine list was exquisite too. If you are in York, book a table at Skosh.

Amazing inventive food, warm service, highly recommend iI will definitely be back if I get to York again. Small place so be sure to make reservations.

Went here on our first night visiting York. Very inventive, modern tapas with a bit of an Asian flair. The food was all quite flavorful. Very friendly service with good recommendations for both wine and food. I might recommend reservations as there was limited availability when we dropped in on late Sunday afternoon.
