Enjoyed meal service very good would recommend place to eat
Lovely food and lovely staff. Would highly recommend.
Great food and atmosphere. Looking forward to returning as soon as we can.
On our first visit unfortunately there was 1 large group (3 tables) of non-locals who were very loud & not maintaining the current guidelines.
Lovely and cosy restaurant. Plenty of choice for vegetarians. Staff were friendly and welcoming.
Hubby and I had a lovely meal here. Highly recommend this restaurant. Great service.
Lovely meal great service i will definitely be visiting again
Great food, great service, great place! A real find on our weekend in York.
We loved everything about Zills. The service was grest, food delicious and it had a great atmosphere.
Love this place . Family run . Excellent food and service!!
Amazing delicious food. Covid guidelines in place and Would definitely go back!
Lovely food and staff were fantastic. Would definitely go back
Very good service but food was somewhat disappointing and I'd say a little overpriced for what it was.
Wonderful night in a Covid night out. Staying nearby and love Tapas. Owner and waitress were really pleasant and friendly. Food was delicious. We had 3 items each which was more then enough. Would certainly visit again and recommend.
A small vibrant restaurant which was just what we had hoped it would be. The atmosphere was great and each tapas dish was delicious and generous in size. Service was excellent. Thanks for a great evening.
Food was fabulous. Too many people though in a small area during COVID, made us feel uncomfortable. I can understand with small businesses the need to survive but didn’t feel safe at all. We’d recommend for the food anytime but not for the safety aspect.
Beautiful food, great service, shame about the flickering lights.
Fantastic place to eat, second time we have been in 2 years.
Excellent food and great value for money. Service was great also.
Super veggie food in a noisy or vibrant atmosphere - depending on your viewpoint.
Great place. A really cosy feel and the food is super tasty. We love it here :o)
Was very small but had a nice atmosphere, we got to sit in a little section which was outside under a canopy. It was a really romantic setting. The waiter was excellent, he was always there if we needed him but without being intrusive. Food was extremely good and came out quickly as well. We will definitely go back next time we visit York!
Had the little table outside under the heater, absolutely one of the best best places I have eaten! Service was great and food was gorgeous!
Great little find, mix of Mediterranean flavours and fusion, very simply presented just as you’d find in a Greek Taverna or at a Coastal Spanish Beach Shack overlooking the sea.
Lovely authentic Greek food! In a nice atmospheric restaurant
Lovely Tapas. We had feta in filo pastry, rice balls, chorizo, cheesy potatoes (cannot remember the Tapas name!) and Istanbul chicken.
All lovely dishes, very fresh and tasty.
Cosy place but still spaced out well.
Lovely staff and overall great place!
arrived on time had to wait outside no greeting at all
the food was just about average but no worth the cost.....
sorry !
was really looking forward to it too
Very warm and friendly service from the start. Table was ready on arrival with a drink in my hand within 5 mins. Food was 15 mins wait max, maybe less! Tapas was tremendous, piping hot and tasty. Great atmosphere and music. Definitely going back.
The food was excellent as was the service and the general ambience of the restaurant.
An amazing spread of Meze and Tapas. Our 6 and 5 year old could not get enough of the halloumi! Would thoroughly recommend this place.
Excellent food and service. Ordered the bundle which was meant to be a platter for two (£18.50 each) and an ice cream for dessert. The platter was small for two people and we had to share a bowl of ice cream. Quite pricey for the amount but tasted great.
After reading lots of great reviews we were really looking forward to our visit however we were really disappointed. The food was very average. We chose the 'Greek' bundle and left wondering what was Greek about it. A very average selection of items, only the tzatziki was up to much. And at £17.50 pp it was definitely overpriced. Service was good, the only real positive to the place.
Excellent food, great atmosphere, very much recommended
Group of 6 went late afternoon on Saturday. Great time, excellent food and fantastic service. Would highly recommend
We loved the food and service was quick lovely cosy atmosphere
It was lovely! My second time at Zills and just as good. They can’t do enough for you and the food is delicious. It was so warm and welcoming.
The food here was awful, wouldn't recommend and cramped up conditions. There was an awful smell of Body odour and I am sure it was the waiter!!! Would not return
Beautiful place and beautiful food. Will be going again soon
Yes its a great place to have a few tasty dishes and friendly staff. The atmosphere is Mediterranean, lively and great for a supper. We went before the theatre as its close by. The service was very efficient and I would definitely go back to Zills when I have my next visit to York
It was a little bit too dark to see the menu or our food which nonetheless was delicious
