Reviews in Leeds and Yorkshire

We called in to Sonali restaurant tonight to book a table for three people whilst across the road having a drink. I wanted to check that they were taking the taste card because it does say to mention this when booking. I was told that they 'didn't like' the taste card but I could use it tonight on this one occasion. I said that they shouldn't be falsely advertising if they weren't prepared to honour our taste card. The restaurant was completely empty when I called in, not one other person eating. We booked for 7.15pm and were the first people there. The meal was okay, lamb very chewy but made no complaints and asked for the bill after we had finished eating. After looking at the bill, only £12.35 had been deducted not 50%, in fact we should have had £20 off the bill. When I questioned this, I was met with hostility and told "I knew I shouldn't have let you in tonight". I said again that they should not be advertising 50% off the total food bill if they weren't prepared to honour it. I was told that it was down to the managers discretion what he took off the bill, again I said you are misleading people by advertising 50% off then. He was angry, raising his voice whilst I stayed calm and just asked him to take 50% off the food bill. He angrily changed the bill and I gave him my debit card, he said he only took cash, I didn't have any, he wasn't happy about taking the debit card and told me he didn't want to see us in the restaurant again. This was all because I wanted what they were advertising and he had obviously gone off the idea of it...........quite happy to get the restaurant advertised though. Sonali is still advertising on this website, I want everyone to be aware that they may also be met with the same hostility, from not a very nice manager at Sonali. Go somewhere else, Aagrah a few miles away is a lovely Indian restaurant, they don't take the taste card but nice people and better value for money.

It was the best Indian restaurant that we have ever been to. We were made to feel very welcome. All our dishes were explained to us..very helpful. It was my sons birthday and they made it very special for him. Highly recommended and excellent value too.

Stunning food,quite frankly some of the finest we have ever had. A lot of the flavours were new to us and the mixed starter just showcased the amazing skills at work in the kitchen. We came in December for a birthday meal and it really was a special meal. After seeing the restaurant on TV it felt like we already knew them and this feeling was only heightened when kaushy came front of house to chat with everyone - what a lovely talented lady. If you are in any doubt about missing the meat in your meal then don't be. Just go! Not the usual fatty taste you are left with after a normal curry this food is so fresh and tasty just give it a go we certainly will be going back in the new year.

Fantastic food and atmosphere.Even changed the table arrangement for us so we could sit closer together and hold hands! Only downfall was one of the staff(the oldest one) suggesting that we sit on each others laps..how rude!!!!!

Possibly my favourite restaurant in Sheffield. Food is consistently fabulous, service fantastic and a lovely atmosphere at all times. I am confident you will enjoy every minute in this, the first pizza restaurant to open in Sheffield in 1968.

This pub was recommended to me by a friend. I came with my husband and we had the fish deal on a Friday. Absolutely beautiful! It's the best meal I have ever had out! Excellent price too! Overall, fantastic healthy quality food for an exceptional price. Could not possibly be beaten! Thank you

We took a group of primarily elderly people from Abundant Life Church, Bradford, to Websters Idle today 16 December 2010. The service was excellent and the small portions large!! Great staff, good food, reasonable price.We'll go again.

Excellent restaurant, staff very friendly and efficient, food great and very good value. Outside eating great even in cold weather as more than adequate heaters very nice continental atmosphere. I have eaten here several times and always great.

Awful service and cant stand the food.

Recently visited the stansfield arms, Ate there for the first time with a group of friends.A fantastic experience the food was tasty, service excellent could not fault in any way.Would definitely recommend this pub its worth it!.

Excellent lunch time venue for family meal. Excellent portions, good value and friendly atmosphere.

We booked a month ago to go to Valentino's for our Christmas get together, booking a table for 8pm for 6. At 9pm we were still waiting to be seated, with the staff saying they couldn't tell us how long the wait would be. I asked to speak to the manager and attempted to complain, he wasn't interested and was very rude. On asking where his customer service was, he replied "if you find it let me know". We left. I am absolutely disgusted with his attitude and will never go to Valentinos again.

Great food & very pleasant surroundings! Brilliantly combined pub & restaurant atmosphere! BUT!!! Please be aware.........THE STAFF DO NOT GET A PENNY OF THE SERVICE CHARGE ADDED TO YOUR FINAL BILL! So do what we did and have it removed, and if happy with the service leave a tip in cash on the table as most staff work for minimum wage.

Before visiting Prashad I was dubious as to whether I could fully enjoy a meal without any meat in it at all but I couldn't have been more wrong! The food they serve is just spectacular and tastes so good you would never miss the meat. This was our second time eating at Prashad's restaurant (we have also driven a 70 mile round trip for a take away because the food is that good!) and this time we took a few friends with us which I'd say is probably best because you can sample a lot more of the menu that way! The pethis, pani puri and pea kachori starters were definitely a favourite and the pea and aubergine curry is amazing! The staff were really understanding when we were over an hour late due to the weather and traffic and rebooked our table for us for a later time. The table service was brilliant and the waiters more than happy to help. At the end of the meal Kaushy came out to talk to us all which was such a nice touch as it makes the experience even more personal. I will definitely be returning to Prashad as soon as I can and I will continue to recommend it to everyone.

Ever since their well-deserved success in the televised culinary contest hosted by Gordon Ramsey, it has been increasingly difficult to obtain a table at Prashad unless we think of booking well in advance. So we have not had a chance to dine there for some weeks. On Saturday we decided to chance it and to our immense relief, Imran, the young, new Manager was able to find us a table for two in the new, tastefully-decorated extension. The restaurant was buzzing, very busy, full of diners. We opted for some of our favourites: bhel supreme, masla dosa, chickpea cholé and puris. Prashad now offers vegan ice cream! So we tried that too. The meal was a pure delight. The service was exceptionally good. Imran and his team are on the ball, doing a great job. Prashad is up there with the big league, giving them a run for their money.
