Reviews in Leeds City Centre

Fantastic venue and food. The decor is out of this world. If you are in Leeds, you must try this amazing restaurant. One of the best meals I have ever had outside France.

Had a lovely meal here. Will def be back. Although I don't agree with the comment above about the stunning guy on the food till!

La Besi is my favourite Italian restaurant in Leeds, the service is fantastic and the staff are very polite. The food was very good. my party was catered for fully. The atmosphere was relaxed. I would definitely recommend La Besi to anyone

We went for food on a Monday when they have half price burgers and it was fab! The tables were almost full (which is great on a Monday evening) and the staff were really friendly. The food came quickly and was delicious. It's not just run-of-the-mill burgers; there is a Thai burger (with fish cake on) and an Italian burger (mozzarella, burger, olives, tomato, basil etc) to name a few. Even at their full price these meals were good value, but at half price they're great!

A lovely little place, accommodated our party superbly. The service is second to none, really helpful staff that are extremely friendly, adding to the warm ambience of the restaurant. Will definitely come here again soon!!

I was astounded by the exquisite taste and flavour of the dishes. Believe me, from a man who loves his food this was by far the greatest experience i have witnessed. The ambience was amazing; as soon as I entered the restaurant we were warmly greeted. The service throughout the night was outstanding. Leeds has been lacking a good, Chinese restaurant and now there is finally a fine establishment that can be called the best restaurant in Leeds. Marvellous!

Amazing experience-very traditional Thai cuisine that is excellent. My favourite restaurant in Yorkshire and cant wait to go again!

Great place to chill after work, live pianist on Thursdays and Fridays is excellent. Pizza pasta offer that they do for £5.95 including a drink is great. This place is a forgotten oasis! if you haven't been since you were young you need to go! staff very friendly

Gorgeous food, lovely staff & a pleasant atmosphere!! I highly recommend it. :)

......the best minestrone soup I have ever tasted....

Excellent quality meal and service. Delicious seafood. Small private function room available. Open all afternoon - so nice not be kicked out! Would definitely recommend it.

La Besi is an excellent place for all occasions. It brings the most of the Italian flavour and atmosphere in the city. It is an outstanding venue and is the ultimate place to chill out, make parties or simply have dinner. It is very welcoming and the warmth of the staff will leave their miraculous stigma on your notions. It is a definite suggestion for any events you may have in mind and it is well worth it try it. Give it a go and you will be surprised.

Very nice place to go after work and relax, food excellent. Also Saturday lunch is great, and the added pleasure of looking at the stunning guy working on the food till.

I love Le Besi restaurant .....it is perfect for Uni staff as it is just opposite work! the food is great & they will cater for all your needs. Students & staff alike frequent it & there is always a good crowd in there. Look out for special days like Valentines Days etc.... the atmosphere in there is great!!

Fantastic. We were a party of 7 and as such were seated in our own alcove "La Bodega" where we sat on high stools around giant wine barrels, all of which added to the superb ambience. It also meant that we could be as raucous as we liked without disturbing other diners unduly. The management clearly understand that parties of this size do not usually rush their meal and had clearly slotted enough time for us not to feel at any point pressured to be finishing our food. The service was excellent, but for a minor misunderstanding on the timing of the Paella a couple of our party ordered; the food even better and the wine rounded off the meal perfectly. I will definitely return and have already recommended this excellent restaurant to many friends.

My fave restaurant in Leeds and the sushi is basic but good. Being used to Canadian (Vancouver and Toronto) sushi range and prices, I was rather outraged the first time I went. Then I got used to UK 'eating out' prices and realised the prices at Little Tokyo are actually very good. There's definitely something special about the ambience that keeps you going back for more. Would highly recommend to all!

The service in La Besi is the best I have met ever. Daily special offer is really worth value of money.

This is the best Chinese food in Leeds. Forget the usual Cantonese fare served up by every other Chinese restaurant in the city, the food here is fabulous - full of flavour, complex, exciting, delicious. The headwaiter was passionate about the place and the food, and genuinely pleased that we'd enjoyed it so much. The majority of people eating in there were Chinese, which has to be a good sign. The dim sum is unbelievable value. Will be going back to eat there as often as possible.
