27 of the best restaurants in Leeds
"Many of the reviews for Wen's praise the restaurant's "authentic" dishes which have proved to be a high hit. One man left a glowing review after his first visit. He said: "Flavour was great throughout; rich and rewarding, but with enough subtleties to keep things delicate - my lamb had a well-judged level of chilli, and was lean and moist."
"This is your chance to try authentic Chinese dishes that rarely make it to these shores. Have you ever tried shredded potatoes covered in glugs of fiery chilli oil?. Or tucked into a whole sea bass stuffed with minced pork and chilli sauce?"
"Slap bang in Leeds city centre, Red Chilli Chinese restaurant deserves a medal for the sheer variety of dishes available. Seriously, give yourself a good 10 minutes to flick through their ample menu (complete with pictures) which features the best of Beijing and Sichuanese cuisine. On offer are dishes like punchy king prawns with green and red chillies, shredded pork in a red pepper stew and the regional favourite that is spicy mapo tofu with minced beef."
"You really can’t miss Red Chilli if you’ve wandered the streets of Leeds for any number of time. Their prime, city centre location means that they’re often busy. With an enormous selection on offer, there’s something on the menu for all tastes."
"This team of highly trained chefs specialise in Beijing and Sichaun dishes. Like your plates wonderfully spicy?. Make a bee-line for Red Chilli."
"The quirky Treasurer’s House lies directly behind York Minster and was extensively renovated in the late 19th century. However, the renovations were not of their time but were designed to emulate historical houses of different eras so that the owner, Frank Green, could ‘authentically’ house his collection of historical artefacts. From the timber frame medieval feel of the grand entrance hall to the Victorian bedrooms, this is a house that will keep you guessing!"
"You can find this National Trust Property behind York Minster, this fine 17th Century house was once home to the treasurer's of York Minster. Join a guided tour of Treasurer's House and see over four Centuries of the elegant interior. If you go on the ghost walks in York this is one of the key stops on route!"

"New homemade pasta restaurant Sarto opened this autumn, just south of the bus station, in Munro House. Its simple menu is full of well-considered and refined ingredients, and the wine list is just as well thought-through, once again using Leeds’ favourite winos (sommelier? Wino? Potato potahto, we say) Latitude and Wayward to source some exciting and gluggable options. The wine menu changes frequently (the food does too!) but you know there’s going to be a natural white or orange perfect to pair with our current favourite ‘gnocchi on jerusalem artichoke puree with chervil’, and a bodied red to go with the ‘lamb neck ragu with mint’."
"Canteen-like Sarto pays homage to two things Italy excels at: sleek minimalist design and fresh, handmade pasta. Slow-cooked ragùs of lamb shoulder or pork and ’nduja speak for themselves, as do classics like fettucine with wild mushrooms and marsala sauce. The meat-free options (say, campanelle with roast garlic, lemon and caper butter) are object lessons in letting a few bold flavours shines."
"Leeds' very first dedicated pasta restaurant arguably offers the greatest value for money anywhere in the city. Diners sit overlooking the open kitchen, which is slap bang in the middle of the restaurant, and the chefs are absolute masterminds. The menu is pretty limited, but each and every dish is a belter."
"68A Harrogate Road, Chapel Allerton, LS7 4LZAnother totally vegetarian place, in Chapel Allerton, Nichols is open all week until 4. You are spoiled for choice with tasty brunch options from a full vegan breakfast to cinnamon porridge."
