Reviews in Leeds City Centre

Very disappointing lunch venue. On the face of it the menu, although limited, was interesting, but the delivery was completely unacceptable. Poor service and very poor food standard. £30 for two people. The bowl of olives at £2 was a complete joke - there must have been all of 4!! We would NEVER eat there again - a complete rip off.

Fantastic experience the staff were extremely pleasant and professional, food delicious a must try!

A great little find, friendly and welcoming. Pleasant atmosphere, attentive service, excellent food, broad selection of very nice wines. I heartily recommend to anyone wishing a very enjoyable, casual relaxed dining experience.

Standard. Used to be amazing, great bar-tenders, great atmosphere, great food. Now it's just same old, same old. Last year they had the best and most accommodating boys and girls in Leeds. It was a pleasure to go, now it's boring and mundane. I hate to be negative but this lot have destroyed a winning formula. Bring back Mike (long hair) Rachel (tall) Claire (fun) and everyone we liked! HBOS is having a hard time, but we would bring it back for the Lounge. We don't want to go elsewhere but the service and food good times have disappeared! So upset, we loved you guys. Where has all the energy gone? And who is that angry man in the waistcoat? Still recommend Lounge, but we need some help! Great relationship gone sour!

I wasn't overly impressed. The food was fine, but nothing special, but it was served on a cold plate so the food went cold quickly. The staff looked scruffy and my beer came in a can. Maybe having been to Ramsey's has spoiled me, but the Scarborough Taps would have been a better option. Passable but that's it.

Possibly some of the best and most authentic Italian food I have ever enjoyed, and I have been travelling to Italy for the last 20 years for business and pleasure. Vitto the owner, is the kind of hands on restaurant owner that all restaurant owners should aspire to. Genuine friendliness, very knowledgeable, and with an eye for detail. The interior is simple and understated, welcoming and homely. I hugely recommend this place, the sort of restaurant you like to keep as a well guarded secret so that you never struggle to get a table there. Go Go Go ....its terrific!

Visited recently on a weekday lunchtime, we had just missed the rush and were almost the only ones in there so would be unfair to comment on atmosphere. However the waitress was polite, friendly and attentive (not that there was much else to do) We chose six dishes off the main menu, including monkfish, tigerprawns and chicken & chorizio skewers. All the dishes were excellent, the food was well cooked and tasted very fresh. All in all the meal came to £50 which included two lagers and two large glasses of wine. would recommend this restaurant to anyone and it easily beats its local tapas competition!

tonight we visited the new akbars cafe on Leeds road in bradford, the place looks wonderful, unfortunately we were greeted at the door immediately to be told they didn't do the sort of curries we would like and the doorman did his best to dissuade us against eating there. the cafe was filled with Asian people and we were made to feel very unwelcome, we were told to eat at the restaurant where we would be served with the sort of curries we like. what happened to choice and liberation however, we will be visiting neither restaurant or cafe again

Just had my first experience at Bibis Leeds and I was very disappointed. The food was ridiculously overpriced for what I would say was a very average meal. For instance, the "roasted garlic and minted olive oil" lamb chops which I could have easily cooked at home (if I couldn’t be bothered to cook that night) tasted of nothing more than grilled lamb chops. I’m amazed that some reviews are actually positive. From reading a handful of reviews it seems that this restaurant relies heavily on its past reputation. The service was poor, no one bothered to check if we enjoyed our meal at any point of the evening (we didn’t!). As a result we felt obliged to remove the included optional service charge. The one positive which we took from the evening was that we enjoyed the starter and deserts however this does not mean we will ever consider returning.

Tried the two-course lunch menu for £12.50 and was very impressed; although the strawberry risotto was a little off the wall for my taste, the spatchcock chicken and the Pizza Fiorentina were delicious. Will be going back.

When we were in Leeds recently we visited Hansa’s Restaurant. It was a Sunday lunch time and we were shown this long table laden with a variety of dishes, giving out an array of tempting aromas. We were told that it was an eat-as-much-you-like buffet. What a delicious choice of food was on offer! I sampled all the different items on the table. No two tasted the same. It was amazing to think that it was possible to conjure up such a wide range. Truly, Hansa has mastered the art of cooking. I shall certainly be back the next time we are in Leeds. If you have not been here before, then do come and you won’t be disappointed.

When I visited my parents, we came here on the Sunday and had their lunch-time buffet. It was really great! I specially liked the dhokla, channa cholé, puris and dal. This has to be the tourist attraction in Leeds. I can highly recommend this friendly restaurant.

This restaurant never ceases to impress me and can now boast the amazing achievement of having impressed my picky husband. He made short work of the yakitori followed by the sirloin of beef and greatly enjoyed the antics of the chef, who manages to make you feel like you're not waiting for your food as he cooks it in front of you. My vegetable tempura was perfect as always, as was my fillet of lamb, and the plum wine was superb. Will continue to visit regularly.

went to this restaurant 4 a friends birthday and really enjoyed our night. the staff are extremely friendly and the service is very good. the place is very authentic and is decorated beautifully. we loved the meal and especially the desserts. it is fairly expensive but it was definitely worth it for a one off occasion.

I chose Hansa’s for my birthday meal. We went on a Sunday at lunch time and had their buffet lunches. It was simply fabulous, a real treat. We shall come back again and try their evening menu.

Red Chilli is by far my favourite restaurant in Leeds and i visit every time i visit the UK! The menu is full of weird and wonderful options. And they have the normal sweet and sour and crispy beef in ok sauce which is delicious for those that don't fancy wife's lung and Pigs Maw!! The restaurant is always full through out the week and is full of Chinese people which is always a good sign. You get value for money, excellent food and an overall enjoyable evening. Wont be back in the UK now until next year but i will defo be stopping off for a trip there as i know it is consistent and the food will be as good as last time!

Well, what can I say? The food that my Husband and I ordered never came! What happened to it I do not know, but we never got it. We left and will never go back there! It is such a shame because the other Aagrah's we have visited have been great!

Visited on a Saturday night. Arrived at 9:30 and seated at 11pm. Bar area very small a crowded for such a long wait. Food when it arrived was good but nothing special. Many other places available with comparable cost and quality. I'll be going to those next in the future.
