Best Asian Food Restaurants in River Nidd

"The Malayalam word ‘tharavadu’ roughly translates as keeping traditions alive – and that’s certainly the ethos of this charming Keralan restaurant, which you’ll find just across the road from Leeds train station. They cover a wide variety of southern Indian dishes, among which you’ll find some unusual treats. Time Out tip: Look out for crab cooked in coconut sauce, excellent fried lentil doughnuts and toffee-filled steamed rice cake."

"A post shared by Tharavadu (@tharavadu) on May 17, 2017 at 10:39am PDT. Tharavadu loves to shout out that it’s Michelin recommended, but I completely understand, because they wholeheartedly deserve their success. Their menu is blummin' massive and they are not sparing with their vegan options."

"This Michelin guide–recommended restaurant is the go-to for a classy South Indian meal in Leeds city centre, with a Keralan menu that’s heavy on fish curries and regional specialities such as whole crab and... International in Leeds"

"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."

"If you like the idea of bottomless brunch, try Bar Soba's lunchtime version, served every Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

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."

"This is one of the more traditional all you can eat buffets in Leeds, with an absolutely massive selection of food from every corner of the globe.

"They serve unreal kebabs, fried chick’n and sides, and the best part is, everything on the menu is completely vegan friendly!. My personal favourite is the fried chick’n combo with buffalo sauce. However, everything I’ve tried from there is amazing, so I can promise you that you won’t be disappointed!"

"This spot became fully vegan in 2018, and these days it offers vegan junk food classics like burgers, fried “chicken” and hot dogs. Their fire fries are absolutely unreal, and their churros always hit the spot if you fancy a little something sweet after your meal. You can eat in or takeaway from Mog’s, depending on what you’re in the mood for."

"Taking over a building left derelict for decades, The Old Red Bus Station is a multi-functional bar, arts and events space. It’s got a reputation for attracting an eclectic array of DJs and club nights hosted in their top floor room. License 2 Jungle presents a weekly residency of, yeah, you guessed it, jungle tunes, but they also have techno, drum’n’bass and hip-hop nights as they aim to show off the best of the genres not usually given a big platform in the city."

"102-104 Vicar Lane, Leeds LS2 7NLSet in a quirky bar & event space, Resident foodies Cantina serve up a 100% vegan junk food menu. Take your pick from dishes like mac & cheese balls, seitan hot dogs and buffalo wings – all totally vegan."
