The 30 Best Restaurant in Leeds

“Super stay for a local wedding. Incredibly friendly and helpful staff.”

“Food was amazing. Things my 10 year old Liked. Staff were fantastic. We recommend this highly. Traditional items you’d expect and some unique ones too xx”

“Booked last minute for a birthday celebration. Was offered both a la carte and Sunday early diners menu, which was good value and had a wide choice. We had 3 courses, coffees, plus drinks and prices were very reasonable and portions large and tasty. Service was excellent, warm and friendly. Would definitely recommend.”

“This is our favourite cafe to eat in when we come into Wakefield. The bagels are delicious with a good selection of fillings and bread including gluten free. Today we had a Manhattan and a Moroccan .”

“We came for our son’s 21st birthday and had a great time! It was our first visit, but won’t be the last. We ordered drinks at the bar before being taken to our table. Then the waiting staff showed us a tablet to order our food/drinks from. There were so many items to choose from, but sashimi wasn’t available on the lunchtime menu. We proceeded to choose our dishes and the food came pretty quickly! They were fresh and hot. The sushi dishes were nicely presented. You get to choose a limited number of dishes, then wait for these to arrive. Then you can choose again. The ordering closes half an hour before your table is up. We had 1.5 hours of eating time. The ambience was nice with good background music. We would definitely return again!”

“One of the best restaurant with warm hearted people serving everyone. We had an accidental stop over in May 2023 and we really enjoyed the food”

“I usually visit in summer for tapas. First time trying the tagines. Absolutely delicious! Great service. Lovely family restaurant. Wholeheartedly recommend.”

“Called in for the special on Thursday as it was steak night...two steak dinners and a bottle of wine for £40...food was outstanding and staff that make you so welcome ...can't wait to return...”

“Best foods and amazing atmosphere to Be in, will definitely be back again!”

“Amazing Food the staff and Chefs produce quality food with a good atmosphere. Very lovely setup. We really enjoyed it. Thanks Simon,”

“New restaurant in Wakefield, very tasteful decor, comfortable and friendly. All 5 dishes ordered were delicious.”

“Fabulous Christmas staff ‘do’ held here last night. Great food, friendly and attentive staff couldn’t do enough to make our evening a success. ‘Peter Andre’ was hilarious! Highly recommended. BYOB”

“Had a lovely meal here. Had the gigantes (giant beans). These are my favourite and these did not disappoint. Absolutely delicious. For mains I had souvlaki. Generous portions and the meat was juicy and tender.”

“We had: Beef Sunday Dinner Belly Pork Sunday Dinner Steak, chips, pepper sauce The Golden Snitch Rhubarb Eton Mess Earl Grey Panacotta All absolutely delicious. Friendly staff, lovely atmosphere.”

“This restaurant is amazing and the atmosphere is very relaxed. The owner paco and his wife are so friendly and they make u feel like you are part of the family. Pacos food is cooked from fresh and there is a variety of dishes including sea food dishes. The prices are also very very reasonable and you get a big plate with very good food portions and it tasted absolutely yummy and out of this world. The restaurant is very clean and tidy too Really I give 10 put of 10 for Pacos. If your ever passing by please give this restaurant a try you won't be disappointed”

“Piassa is wonderful! I've been twice now and can't praise the place highly enough! We originally booked for 12 people but had 5 drop out due to illness so the place can accommodate reasonably large groups. There's a good selection of draught beers, bottles Ethiopian & Eritrean beers and spirits. I've had food from both the vegan and meaty menus and both were incredible. Simple, delicious dishes that are filling and warming. Decent portions of very tasty food and a really friendly, happy, lively atmosphere. The staff are really lovely too and Parking is either on the street (free of charge) or there's a nearby bit of disused land to park on (unsure if there's a fee). Piassa is cash only but there's a cash machine with free withdrawals in the petrol station over the road. There is a cash machine right outside the restaurant but it charges £1.99 for withdrawals and it swallowed the cards of 2 friends so it's probably best to avoid that one. Eating at Piassa is an overall pleasurable experience which if highly recommended! A real hidden gem! ♥️”

“The restaurant offers an authentic taste of South Asian cuisine. The food was delicious, and the staff were friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend it if you're looking to enjoy genuine South Asian flavours. The prices were reasonable, and they are currently in the process of expanding the space. Hopefully, both floors will be ready in a few months.”

“First visit to this large restaurant on Whitehall Road; at the foot of that tower that’s had so many problems with the cladding. Now scaffolding free, it made me notice this place afresh. Inside the restaurant is bright and airy, white walls and marble floors. There’s a nice vibe in here of an evening. Chill yet traditional. You sense the meal will be good. Nice big menu with lots of choice. Pizza, pasta and steak. Also fish. Opted for the venison wellington; I love venison and it sounded like a dish that would be rich and hearty. Not wrong, a beautiful (and big) portion of perfectly pink venison in a light and flaky crust. Wow, could eat that all day. So very rich with a hearty sauce, turnip to the side. I wish more places would use game. The chef here clearly knows his meat. Excellent. The steak must be fantastic. Reasonably priced as well. The beer was Moretti; as it should be when it isn’t Peroni. Definitely recommend giving this place a try next time you’re in town. They do specials too, so a chance at finding something unexpected and intriguing on the menu. Always welcome. Two paws up. Well done.”

“Really nice interior, great food, great drinks! The restaurant is very modern and the staff are friendly and attentive. The drinks were great, we tried a few cocktails. In particular all the drinks with mango were amazing, mango margarita wasn't too sweet which is the way I like it. Curries are complex and rich, and the starters are great.”

“Fantastic meal in a brilliant atmosphere. 1st time here and we can it was an enjoyable evening. Service and food was spot on. Would I go again.....Yes.”

“Great vibe, yummy food, excellent service! And a bargain for lunch meal. Highly recommend And I will re-visit!”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had the most wonderful family meal at Escape Restaurant in Horsforth! From the moment we walked in, we felt so welcome ,the staff were friendly, attentive, and made sure everything was perfect. The food was absolutely delicious ,beautifully cooked, full of flavour, and with plenty of choice for everyone in the family. The atmosphere was relaxed yet special, making it the perfect place to enjoy time together. It’s rare to find somewhere that feels both stylish and family-friendly, but Escape manages it perfectly. We’ll definitely be coming back again ,highly recommended!”

“Great place to enjoy authentic Punjabi and Indian food. Been coming here for few years now. Thanks to Yaada and her colleagues for great service.”

“We had the best Tom Yum Noodle Soup at Bamboo Thai! The flavours were perfectly balanced —rich, tangy, and with just the right amount of spice. Every bite was packed with fresh ingredients that made the dish incredibly tasty. The service was fantastic, too; the staff were attentive and friendly, making the whole experience enjoyable. Highly recommend for anyone craving authentic Thai flavours! Thank you so much!”

“What a delightful place for a celebration or even just a drink. The quality of the food is top notch and worth the trip. Staff are friendly and able to make adjustments as required. The bruschetta was strong with garlic and the tomatoes were very fresh and juicy. The chicken was thin and crispy, paired with the delicious spaghetti topped with fresh tomatoes and basil. The meal was finished off with zeppola. This is a crispy choux bun filled with sweet vanilla cream. I was able to get this without the cherries and it was perfect. We will defiantly be back when we come back to Leeds!”

“Was hoping to leave a restaurant review but it seems to have defaulted to the accommodation (which we didn't use!) The food was freshly made and highly enjoyable. Not a fancy restaurant, but like going to a friends house who enjoys cooking!”

“Absolutely amazing food and service, had a late dinner with family, impeccable service, food was lovely.”

“Good size. Not absolutely massive but cosy and a good number of seats. Well decorated. Well maintained, doesnt feel like its falling to bits like some theatres do. Good temperature (it was cold outside, we were warm enough for coats off but not sweating), good sound and view. Good location -easy for taxis to drop off but still near city centre”

“This is my 3rd time visiting Flight Club previously in London branches. The same vibe, service and just all round excellent experience. On this occasion visited for drinks and games with work friends which was really fun and enjoyable.”
