Reviews in Leeds and Yorkshire

We went for Christmas Dinner this year and can truly say that it MADE our Christmas. In all my life (58 years) I have NEVER had Christmas lunch out but I needn't have worried. The meal was wonderful and exceeded our expectations. Not only was there an excellent choice of dishes and excellent quality of food, but portions were a good size and several courses, coffee and mince pies and even crackers to pull really made it a special occasion. Thank you all at the Cross Keys.

It was our wedding anniversary yesterday and when deciding where to go for a meal Prashad was top of the list. Wow!!!! just like previous visits to this fantastic restaurant we sampled great tasting food (working our way through the entire menu) and our hosts the Patel brothers were on their usual top form making us feel very welcome. They even surprised us with a complimentary desert (Indian carrot cake and ice cream) and it was delicious -thank you very much. We have a 30 mile round trip to eat at Prashad and said that if it was around the corner from our house we would be there every day.

The fish dishes are fabulous and very tasty.

This place comes totally recommended by me and friend. The food is amazing and comes in large portions, service is pleasant and swift and we love it here and cant wait to visit again soon!

It's pretty obvious that all the previous comments have been written by the same person so are actually of no value whatsoever. I won't be going there if the owner's the only person recommending it!

this is the worst fish and chip shop ever bad service bad attitude bad manners and bad food ... all together BADQ!

As a group touring curry houses in Yorkshire we have discovered this jewel of India. The food has the best taste to date and all the staff are very welcoming. We will return again soon.

Yum Yum Yesssaaaahhh, That's what I'm talking about! Lots to choose from, plenty of variety! Fresh quality food! Ranges from Duck pancakes! Sweet and Sour dishes, peeking, lemon chicken, king prawns in oyster sauce and the list just goes on! If that's not enough you even get dessert options - Ice cream, Jelly, Chocolate etc, would highly recommend!

10/10 - Fantastic food, great value for money & excellent service. The menu has something for everyone on there. Well worth a visit. Very popular!!

Its got to be my favourite restaurant it is so inviting and the staff are just so pleasant i must say compliments to the chef as all the food is 5 star standard i have also had catering from Cromwell's and all my guests have been very impressed if anybody is in Pontefract i would truly recommend visiting Cromwell's

Very poor would not go again, unhelpful staff not all food on menu available, over cooked and small portions

Very poor waited 1 hour for table then told Sunday lunch was off, on a Sunday! and that the same happened last week. Staff poor food only OK . Avoid

Went in their third week of being opened and found it extremely busy but with a very friendly young staff who went out of their way to accommodate us even though we hadn't booked. We are vegetarian and vegan and the vegan is wheat intolerant but we managed to eat and drink fairly well and it was lovely to have a gluten-free pasta option. A few slight problems with what is considered suitable for vegetarians (a dish with anchovies was labelled with a V, as were a few dishes containing Parmesan cheese which is always made with animal rennet) but the dishes we had were tasty and wholesome and presented well, not fussy but quite rustic. We had a bottle of white wine and two glasses of red, one starter, two main courses (my mushroom risotto was excellent), a side of spinach with garlic and olive oil and we each had a glass of amaretto and my partner had a double espresso which he said was really good. Service was included and the meal came to about £60 which was fairly good value. We will definitely go again but will make sure we book next time and I hope this new restaurant will be here to stay.

I have dined at Buon Apps twice. First time was great - I chose to go on a Wednesday evening, 3 courses for £15 and regional specialities. Very good food, excellent service, lovely atmosphere. My second visit was less successful. Although my partner's pizza was very good, I was a little disappointed in my Melanzane, I felt it lacked flavour, but more importantly, when I asked for a recommendation for accompanying vegetable I was offered cabbage, and was expecting perhaps some cavolo nero or similar. What arrived was chunky white cabbage, covered in plain old melted cheddar, I think. It detracted from, rather than improved the main course. I won't be put off going again, but I will choose more carefully next time.

I would love to write a review about the food at this establishment but regrettably, for myself and Dos Amigos, all I can do is write about the worst service I have ever experienced. I called up to book at 20:40 on a Friday night and was told there would be no problem with a table. As we were in the vicinity I and my partner arrived within 10 minutes. We were shown to a table and give a menu. At 21:10 the waitress finally actually took our order, despite sitting at the table with our menus down trying to get her attention for about 15 minutes. We ordered a couple of drinks and our meal. We then sat there until 22:05 awaiting our food, eventually we managed to talk to a waitress when we noticed someone who had come in after us eating. We were told that they had lost the order and nothing had been done on our food. A very curt apology was offered. At this point I paid for my drinks, left and ate at a different restaurant. Needless to say I will not be visiting again. I would have understood if the restaurant was particularly busy, but there were 16 people in the restaurant (I counted, I had plenty of time). The waitresses simply believed that having a nice chat behind the till was a better use of there time.

I would not recommend Browns restaurant in Leeds, having been there this week for a steak. The rib eye steak was half the size it should be was served with frozen chips and water cress. Waited a long time for a poor meal. The soup starter was nice, however two very small slices of bread from a baguette is not good enough, anywhere you go in Europe you are always served a basket of bread when ordering soup. Very disappointed. But you know what they say, you only get ripped off once. Never again.

ate hear last Saturday food as good as ever but please book so you do not have to wait.

I attended the Beatles tribute night at £25pp which included a 3 course meal, delicious as always! We had a party of 12 and everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves. One of our party was vegetarian and they were extremely well catered for. The service was second to none, the staff were efficient, friendly and cheerful. We have booked again for the Blues Brothers in March and also for Show Time in April and can't wait!!!!
