Reviews in Leeds and Yorkshire

This has always been and suspect all ways will be my all time favourite restaurant the staff are absolutely awesome here and the food is by far the best around. A little tip if you want the best service from the staff go on a week night or Thursday as weekends are so busy you don't get the personal touch as much, but doesn't really matter as the food makes up for it......enjoy :)

I RECOMMEND THE GREYHOUND INN FOR ITS GOOD HOME COOKED FOOD AND FINE BEERS

THE BEST restaurant around, we have been regulars at Rice since its opening and have NEVER had a bad meal there. The staff go out of their way to make it a pleasurable dining experience, and if you fancy something a bit different just ask and the chef will make you something not on the menu (Jaz when are you putting Andhari Rath on the menu proper!!!!!!). Good food, good value for money and one of the best places in Leeds to eat!!!!!!

this place is an oasis in a city of madness, the food is exquisite and the atmosphere is warm, welcoming and friendly. i would say that it is the best pizza i have had outside of italy. i would recommend this restaurant to anyone who loves itallian food and a taste of the warm itallian culture.

I've just visited for a meal with the family and the staff were great with the kids and the meal was spot on. recommended.

Akbars is one of the best restaurants I've come across in United Kingdom. You sure will enjoy the food with a touch of excellent service. A must to try place if you are a food lover.

Me and my partner wen to the stansfield Arms on the early bird menu. We had a fantastic meal very good value for money and excellent service.

We happened to stumble across this hidden gem whilst out walking. Set back off the main busy Pateley Bridge street, the Willow Restaurant is one of the dales best kept secrets. With its traditional setting the restaurant and its staff could not have being more welcoming. The menu was exactly what we were looking for and we waited in the relaxed bar area. Once seated we enjoyed what has to be said the most amazing home made soup and roll myself and my wife have ever tasted. With the such a start to the meal it seemed somewhat hard to beat. Oh how wrong we could have being. I settled for the roast Beef with home made Yorkshire puddings. Well I have to say I have not enjoyed a meal as much in some time. Everything down to the seasoning of the home made gravy was just a delight. My wife’s home made seafood pancake was just as pleasing. With what was a treasure chest of fresh fish. With our plates clean we could only mange the delights of the fresh ground coffee. Great food, great service and at remarkably reasonable prices. We will be certain to call back at the The Willow Restaurant soon and await more true homemade delights. Mr & Mrs Collingham - Cheshire

Let this be a lesson to all diners....don't let the funky decor and misleading menu descriptions fool you into entering this restaurant. The mozzerella and ham starter with tomato sauce was bland and under seasoned leaving me reaching for my glass of water to help enhance the flavour. Following this was the meat cannelloni which contained less meat than a Linda McCartney sausage but a years supply of spinach, enough to keep popeye happy for a while anyway. Maybe more attention should've been to the food than the funky decor when they started this venture. Then to complete my dining experience i was shocked to find that a gratuity was automatically added to the bill. I would never have tipped anywhere that served such bland food but for them to assume that their food is good enough to deserve this is down right ludicrous. To conclude - Lovely surroundings, great decor.......awful food...

had a great time food was brill prices good food service fast will go again 7 ladies saturday night 15 november 2008

First Class. With such a varied menu it is always difficult to choose though, my favourites which I can highly recommend are the Crab Tart starter followed by the Duo of Duck. The food here is excellent, fresh, tender, tasty and always looks good enough to eat! Nothing is too much trouble for the friendly and attentive staff which adds to the lovely atmosphere and ambience here. Excellent value for money is the icing on the cake. My favourite restaurant, my favourite night out.

i have never been to whitby before i came with my partner we called in the moon and sixpence for a drink and a couple of nights later returned for a meal it was the most romantic night i've ever had i will never forget it and we hope to return someday soon thanks to the staff and the lovely wine and food they served the night was just perfect thank you

I'm a regular at Anam's and I love their buffet. The service I receive is always of an excellent standard. There is this one staff member who is older than the rest of the staff and is there to welcome the customers. I cannot say enough about this guy. He makes us feel very welcome and will always ensure we have a good time. He usually brings us a special dish, aside from the normal buffet and always treats us like we are valued customers. Just as it should be! I've previously been a regular at Mumtaz Restaurant, but always felt like I was another number who walked through the door. Whether it was Mumtaz or Akbar's I always felt that as an Asian customer I always came second! Seriously, the service that white people receive at these restaurants is always second to none (Sorry if anyone feels offended - I'm not discriminating), but I always felt that we were treated differently. Maybe because I'm your day to day working class customer and not posh enough! Crazy, I know!!

i have tried brick lane manningham lane always a great welcome fantastic food even though they are always busy they manage to accommodate guys this has to be one of the best Bangladeshi meals in the UK im hooked

went on 7 th November with friends and found this place and its food really nice! very good atmosphere and music, the candles on the tables beautiful. Would recommend La Vina always.

I had a party for my birthday of 30 people at labesi restaurant, it was an absolute amazing time. The staff were friendly, the atmosphere brilliant and the food incredibly delicious. I am regular at LaBesi but everytime i got there it is always a thrill. They also have their Christmas menu on which i'm planning on having another party. This place is as close to Italian as you can get. Thank You LaBesi and to all the staff, you are amazing.

This is by far the best restaurant in Yorkshire. We had an amazing meal with friends and were very impressed. Great place.

Went here with a mate because we had heard it was good. There were plenty of dishes to choose from and they were ok. Not quite sure how porks sausages are classified as 'Chinese' but people were eating them. Overall, not bad if you're hungry and want to fill your boots. Couple of disappointments was the odd way the food was sectioned off meaning people were queuing for food directly where the food was so it all became a bit of a traffic jam; the other fly in the ointment was the amount of people in there with little or no manners (I dont need to hear about your child's bowels whilst I'm eating - thank you very much Mr on the next table) Give it a try - it's ok
