On the floor above sits Kennedy Meadows, a terraced area overlooking the Victoria Quarter, Kirkgate Market and Victoria Gate."

"Boasting the high quality restaurant the Ox Club, a beer hall with brews from around the globe and a live music venue. That’s all before you make your way up to Redondo Beach & Roof Terrace; their very own very own cocktail bar that leads out onto the roof terrace complete with kitchen, outdoor bar and sheltered areas with plenty of seating."

"This buzzing, Moortown local gets absolutely packed out on the weekend and once you’ve been you’ll understand why. They serve traditional Chinese food, with flair in a rather swish environment. The 120-cover restaurant upstairs feels modern and serves up such popular favourites like crispy aromatic duck, but they also cater for special occasions with extravagant dishes like braised lobster with ginger and aubergine stuffed with delicate prawn meat."

"G-Wu is a popular Moortown restaurant that doubles as a takeaway. Expect Chinese food with flair – they have special dishes you don’t normally see at your local takeaway alongside a host of classics. We’re talking Braised Lobster, Duck Lettuce Wraps and Prawn Meat Stuffing."

"The food at G-Wu is so good that one customer simply said: "It is something else.". The north Leeds restaurant and takeaway is a big hit with the city's gluten-free clientele. "What an absolute delight!" said one customer."

"The Ivy is an eclectic restaurant where you can indulge in one of the biggest brunch menus in Leeds. They’ve truly embraced the border between breakfast and lunch, with dishes that fall on either side of the border – and you can stretch out the experience with multiple courses. Keep it traditional with Hot Buttermilk Pancakes, topped with fresh fruit, Greek yogurt, lemon balm and warm strawberry sauce, or go for something a little bit different, like their Crab Linguine."

"What: There are few restaurant groups with prettier interiors than The Ivy Collection. At The Ivy Victoria Quarter, you can cosy up in the jewel box dining room while tucking into breakfast time favourites, such as scrambled eggs with smoked salmon or buttermilk pancakes topped with a medley of fruit. There are fresh juices and coolers too.Where: Vicar Lane, LS1 6BB"

"Combining bold and beautiful decor with a fine dining experience, The Ivy is delivering the goods from its Victoria Quarter abode. Whether you're after an exquisite cocktail, a leisurely weekend brunch or a bottle of delicious wine, this is the place to do it."

"From their website: ‘Our exciting, inventive and varied menus have been especially created by our experienced staff, and are La Vecchia Scuola’s distinguishing – and distinguished – culinary feature. We believe in serving only the very best in contemporary Italian cooking.’"

"05/06/2021: The restaurant is one of two we tend to visit whenever we come to York. The building and surroundings are stunning and this is a big draw. On this occasion we were put in a side room with three other tables."

"Joshua Overington’s six-course seasonal tasting menu at intimate French neighbourhood bistro, Le Cochon Aveugle, rotates with the seasons to make the most out of fresh produce when it’s at its prime. Think refreshing carpaccio of octopus, 12 hour short-rib and homemade black pudding, and charcoaled crème brûlée with made-to-order ice cream and crunchy rosemary sugar. On-trend mini canelés with a burnt-sugar crust were delicious, and served with a rum-spiked banana milkshake: a grown-up alternative to milk and cookies."

"What: Small, unassuming, and tucked away down one of the city’s quieter streets, this incredible restaurant is a must for any visiting (or resident) foodie. Aptly named, Le Cochon Aveugle deals solely in ‘blind’ tasting menus (four or six courses with optional wine pairings), which are modestly-priced given the quality, and make for a wonderfully relaxed and indulgent evening. The interiors are nothing special but the skill of the chefs is, meaning dishes as simple as scallops with butter are exceptional."

"Serving a contemporary European menu rooted in classical French techniques. Delivering a 3-course meal for two and a bottle of wine for £40. Check Facebook for their menu."
