Reviews in Leeds and Yorkshire

Took my daughter for a Sunday lunch and it was delicious and, for her, free (she's under 10). The roast lamb was succulent and the mashed potato was a revelation to my daughter. Not knowing the opening hours we arrived fairly late in the day but the staff were very friendly and did everything to accommodate us. The puddings were great too and the chef took time out of the kitchen to explain what a panacotta was, and it was lush. Its a hidden gem in a beautiful part of Leeds. We'll definitely go back.

We had a fabulous dinner at the Wensleydale Heifer on Saturday evening. I had the best Lobster Thermidor that I have ever eaten (the sauce was so delicious) and my husband said that his fish soup and fish curry were both outstanding. The desserts were to die for and I can thoroughly recommend the amaretto and chocolate ice cream sundae which was a drink in a glass. This was our first visit and will definitely not be our last. The Heifer compares more than favourably to the Crab and Lobster.

When full it's quicker to fly to Rome and get a pizza - walked out due to the long wait, after drinking a liter of water, a beer and eating a starter and my main still did not turn up. Staff seemed uninterested in my complaint. I would not go to this restaurant again - I used to go often and even went first week of opening - but service is so poor now.

I hated the wretched place. It seemed to me to gorify meat eating, but a heart by-pass perhaps changes ones views. I dont know who runs the place now but it used to be a thoroughly objectionable american who was nasty to both customers and staff alike. I shall not return - and I recommend you to do the same

The Golden Lion Hotel now has a traditional fish and chip restaurant serving fish and chips done in beef dripping, we had the Jumbo fish and chips very reasonably priced and quite delicious, they also do a nice variety of food if you don't want fish. We also went back on the Sunday to have their Carvery we had the choice of Honey Roast Ham, Turkey Crown, Roast Pork and Beef, we couldn't decide which to have and the carver let us have a slice of everything. It was one of the best carveries I have ever had. Well worth a visit if you r passing through.

My vegan friends in Shipley took me to this lovely vegetarian café in Thornton. I had a cheese enchilada with a gorgeous salad to accompany it. The chocolate cake was simply delicious. I am not vegetarian but I shall certainly come here again.

I was visiting my friends in Shipley and they took me to this great vegetarian eating place in Thornton. All three of us had the vegetable crumble and it was simply yummy. The side salad was a work of mouth-watering art. I am very partial to coconut and as the desserts menu had pineapple and coconut cake listed on it, I naturally ordered it. And I am glad I did as it was delicious. I am not vegetarian and I have also run a café of my own previously, so when I say this is a brilliant little café, it’s because I do know the café business and know what I am talking about.

I recently had my wedding and reception at Mr Chu China Palace they catered for 100 during the day time and 300 at the night time at the function room below. My guests were from all corners of the uk including a well respected restauranter from the London City ..We are still being told it is "simply the Best" The firework display, dragon dance,service hospitality was second to none my southern friends fell in love with the place. Finally but not least the food was outstanding quality,right temperature and enormous amounts that my friends were convinced I must have paid in excess of £50 a head not so, it was very reasonable priced ..My wedding went down as the Wedding of the decade by all of my guest on the evening and night..Thank You Mr Chu you are a credit to Yorkshire and Hull..Geoff & Janet

We visited Medici on Wednesday 16th July 2008, the food and service was first class. Everything that was served to us was delicious, the tiramisu excellent. Medici is now on our list to visit regularly. Also we arrived during family time and was given a 30% discount.

A fantastic evening out i love coming here, i try a different dish every time and i have never even being close to disappointed!! Lamb shanks is always a fav, but tonight i had the fishcakes, outstanding cant wait to have them again, service is great too, the best for miles around!!

Quite simply, the best tasting food in Sheffield!

R.E The slip in the once beautiful Beaumont Arms. The service leaves a lot to be desired, having ordered the house red wine at the bar it took ten minutes to reach our table and was chilled not at room temperature as red wine should be. The atmosphere wasn't as bubbly as it once was as much as the new landlord tried his hardest to liven the place up. After being constantly bugged by the gentlemen the food came and it had a lovely aroma, finally something was going right for our birthday gathering. I ordered the sirloin steak which was ordered rare and it came medium to well and i should know the difference as i am a chef. To the chefs defence there was trouble by the waitress understanding what i was asking for so the mix up could be directed in the direction of the service. I love steak but this one tasted like it had been cooked on a pan or a griddled used to cook many other types of food. Everybody at the table were happy with what the ordered but not excited as we used to be with other menus in the town centre. We still left a tip, thinking about it my tip should of been make sure everything is better in two Sundays away when we return.

I have to echo the previous comments. This is a little gem of a pub, out of the way high up in the Pennine hills. The food is superb, incredible value for money (check out the steak and kidney pudding). They obviously have a trained chef doing the cooking and the Sunday roast puts most pub offerings to shame because they use fresh vegetables (and no frozen Yorkshire puddings!). Really relaxed atmosphere and very friendly staff. Make a visit, the uphill slog your car has to make is worth!

This Restaurant doesn't exist anymore, so we ended up going to Rubicon and it was excellent.

I am pleased to say that my second visit to Kendells was as pleasurable as the first. Dining in such a vibrant atmosphere, with good quality food and the most helpful, accommodating staff is such a delight. My companion and I ordered from the A la Carte menu, and in our opinion it was excellent value for money. I will definitely be visiting again and continue to promote this restaurant to my friends.

Went down here a few weeks ago and was greatly disappointed with lack of service to those of us chose to sit outside. Took absolutely ages between courses and it was not particularly busy so that cannot have been the reason. Out of sight out of mind was best way to describe it !

One of the best Italian restaurants i have eaten at. The service was great, the food was incredible, with the presentation being up to the same standards. I would recommend to anyone.

We have been to Rustico several times now and I cant speak highly enough of the quality of food and service. Its the type of place you would return to time and time again and never be disappointed. I personally love the vast array of seafood on offer, but whatever you choose to eat, its delicious! A word of warning though, the complimentary bread and dips are delicious, and rather filling! You have to be a strong person to resist!!
