Etci Mehmet Leeds: Inside the award-winning Turkish steakhouse set to open in Eastgate

An award-winning Turkish steakhouse has opened its first restaurant in Leeds.

Etci Mehmet was founded in Istanbul in 2012 and opened its first UK site in Manchester, which scooped Best Turkish Steakhouse Restaurant in the North West at the Northern Enterprise Awards last year.

The chain now boasts sites across the world - and has become renowned for premium steaks and table-side entertainment.

The new Leeds restaurant, located in Eastgate, is now open. Diners can expect Turkish cuisine, including the signature steak which is dry-aged for 28 days, as well as fire shows and theatrical entertainment.

Etci Mehmet’s operations director, Amine el Gueddar, said: “We have been working very hard to create something special for Leeds, which stays true to our Turkish roots and our passion for food and hospitality whilst providing diners with the relaxed and vibrant experience we are known and loved for.”

It will be open from 5pm to midnight on Monday to Friday, and from 2pm to midnight at the weekend.
