Best Asian Food Restaurants in Layerthorpe

"Boasting its own Michelin recommendation (it’s not quite a Michelin star, but give them time), a visit to Tharavadu is always an absolute pleasure. The home of south Indian Keralan cuisine in Leeds, this restaurant sets expectations high, but continues to meet those high standards every single time. There are no bland kormas or butter chickens here."

"A finalist in the last series of Channel 4's Ramsay's Best Restaurant, this vegetarian Indian is a venue on the up. Whilst sat in the smart lounge (opposite the main restaurant on Woodhead Road) waiting for your takeaway, you can peruse multiple framed newspaper cuttings extolling Prashad's virtues or watch looped footage of Gordon Ramsay putting Kaushy Patel and her kitchen team through their paces. Despite this recent boost to the restaurant's profile, prices remain keen."

"A post shared by Prashad Indian Veggie Cuisine (@prashad_veggie) on Dec 1, 2016 at 10:01am PST. A stylish former pub with wooden panels from India fronting the bar, Prashad in Bradford has gained a loyal following for its meat-free dishes with influences from Southern India and Gujarat. The restaurant has been awarded a Michelin Bib Gourmand, and inspectors praised its “authentic vegetarian dishes […] from enticing street food to more original creations."

"If you’re wanting a restaurant in Leeds that offers a serious slice of theatre with your meal, then Teppanyaki will steal the show. These guys whip up traditional Japanese cuisine before your very eyes, because each table comes equipped with its own ‘teppan’ hotplate. Choose from a sumptuous selection of grilled goodies, like sticky duck teriyaki, king prawn and scallops in Tokyo butter, or a scene-stealing fillet steak with lobster tail, then watch your meal be sliced, sizzled and spun straight onto your plate."

"I have no idea why because it’s always been there, I love Japanese food and it’s not like it’s out of the way. But for some strange reason, I’m yet to visit. However, I’m including it because they do serve sushi and I promise that I’m going to visit soon, in the name of blog research of course."

"This is a slightly different twist on bottomless brunch, and it’s one of the best that Leeds has to offer. Bar Soba serves Pan-Asian street food, and the bottomless brunch will have you choosing from dishes such as a katsu curry or a pad thai, which certainly makes a change from the usual bottomless brunch offerings you’ll find!. Bar Soba offers two options: Option 1 is £25pp and allows you to choose from prosecco or bottles of Tsingtao or Sol, while option two also lets you choose from a number of Bar Soba’s cocktails for the slightly higher price of £30pp."

"If you like the idea of bottomless brunch, try Bar Soba's lunchtime version, served every Friday, Saturday and Sunday. You'll get a two-course meal from their street food menu plus free-flowing mojitos and Prosecco for £25 per person. Even better, there's also a Bottomless Supper Club, where from 6pm you can enjoy street food, cocktails, DJs and dancing at £35 per person – again, it's a two-course street food affair, but with Prosecco, mojitos, mimosas and bellinis."

"With a quirky menu serving up everything from katsu curries and pad Thai salads to Korean popcorn chicken and cheeseburger spring rolls, Bar Soba is a top choice for dining out in Leeds. And when you're done?. There's a cracking cocktail list of classics and signature mixes too."

"More than 500 people have rated Red Chilli on TripAdvisor and it is another restaurant that has had glowing reviews for its accuracy to truly East Asian dishes. "Huge portions, very tasty, more authentic than most," said one person. Another said: "The food was delicious and full of flavour."

"Another lively cosmopolitan addition to the fast-evolving Civic Quarter which now offers just about every cuisine. Descend the stairs of the restored V ..." Read our full review"

"This team of highly trained chefs specialise in Beijing and Sichaun dishes. Like your plates wonderfully spicy?. Make a bee-line for Red Chilli."

"Blue Sakura is an undeniably cool sushi spot, with eye-catching cherry blossom trees and colour-coordinated murals. But the interior’s not the only reason to drop by – it’s also one of the only all-you-can-eat sushi restaurants in Leeds. Fill your boots with all the maki, nigiri, gunkan, uramaki, temaki and torched sushi you can manage."

"Let’s start with my favourite and, in my opinion, the best sushi in Leeds. The day that I found out that a bottomless, all-you-can-eat sushi restaurant was opening in Leeds, was one of the best days of my life. The price varies depending on when you go, ranging from £19.95 for a weekday lunchtime to £34.95 for a weekend evening."

"At Blue Sakura, you can dive into a never-ending selection of sushi. They have hundreds of dishes, with everything from salmon sashimi to spicy tuna gunkan. But it’s not just sushi – you can snaffle katsu curry, gobble yakitori and feast on bao buns, all ordered on the tablet at your table."

"If you’re a huge fan of curry, this is the place to check out. Jorvik Spice is best known for being a curry house as they are said to serve some of the best curries in town. The restaurant also offers other Indian cuisines, particularly of Bengali origin, which is perfect for foodies who are both hungry and extra adventurous."

"The Raj is an authentic Indian restaurant proudly owned and run by an Indian national, so you are guaranteed the best of the cuisine. The Raj takes on a contemporary style of Indian cuisine without disregarding the rich flavors behind it. The place is considered a hidden gem in York, and those who have discovered it leave impressed."

"If you’re looking for somewhere a little more informal to indulge in the aromatic flavours of the East, then this is the place for you!. Thai Sabai literally means ‘a feeling of well-being, a place to relax’ and their modest interiors and friendly staff certainly reflect this. They have an excellent menu of starters, mains, sides and desserts but if you struggle with decision making, opt for one of their set menus which start at 18.95 pp."

"This local favourite is out in the Headingley ’burbs, but it’s worth the trek. From the outside it looks like a takeaway, but don’t be fooled. Inside you’ll find a few rows of tables, Thai wood carvings and low lighting – a fuss-free environment that allows the food to shine."

"A post shared by Kristal Ireland (@kristalsmile) on Dec 24, 2016 at 5:13am PST. Established in 1998, this patisserie and chocolaterie has carved itself a well-deserved reputation across Yorkshire. A chocolate sweet lover’s heaven, you’ll find a vast selection of hand crafted chocolates, dainty pastries and elegant French patisseries at the counter, along with freshly baked artisan breads."

"No trip to Harrogate is complete without a visit to Bettys – the popular tearoom has been part of the town since 1919. As well as the traditional afternoon tea and fat rascals, you can also get food ranging from fish and chips to eggs benedict."

"If you want to take a photo wearing a traditional medieval cape in some beautiful surroundings (as well as learn more about the relationship of science, religion and chemistry in the Middle ages in York), head to the Barley Hall, where you can do all that."

"This restored medieval townhouse, tucked down an alleyway, includes a permanent exhibition of life in the times of Henry VIII. It was once the home of York’s Lord Mayor. The centrepiece is a double-height banquet..."

"Things to Do, Attractions"

"Arguably the best aquarium anywhere in the UK, The Deep is unique in that it was built specifically to help drive up Hull’s tapering tourist trade as well as to support marine conservation. Now, it’s one of the most visually striking and popular attractions in the north, with several living exhibitions and thousands of species on display, including seven types of shark."

"Nestled between York Minster and Monk Bar “Little Italy” was established by owners Andrea & Mandy Gaias in January 1992, and as a result of endless dedication have built up an enviable reputation as one of York’s finest Italian restaurants offering gourmet cuisine to satisfy the most discerning tastes. 12 Goodramgate, York YO1 7LQT: 01904 623539"

"Cosy family run Italian just a few minutes’ walk away, very popular for evening meals so you should book in advance. Nice deli counter for take-away food. (Closed Wednesdays).www.littleitalyrestaurantyork.co.uk"

"Gourmet cuisine in a cosy, bare-brick setting with regular cookery demos and a downstairs deli. Well worth a visit if you are in the area!. Address : 12 Goodramgate, York YO1 7LQ, UK"
