    A very thoughtful and creative menu. Service was friendly and personal without being intrusive. Definitely worthy of the hat it was awarded by the boring at the good food guide. I’m still dreaming of the smoked beetroot!

    we loved this small intimate restaurant with amazing food. we did the chefs menu because it was just easiest in particularly we loved the beets and the sunchokes and the duck. Staff is extraordinarily friendly and we’ve been telling everyone we know to try it when they go to Blackheath.

    Three of us had dinner at Ates and we all agreed we had some of the best food we have ever had. It was creative, thoughtful and with delicious tastes in every dish. We absolutely recommend Ates as a fabulous place to dine. The staff were friendly, attentive but understated. Our only concern, as 70+ year olds, was that it was a bit noisy. We will be going back and have already recommended Ates to friends.
