7. Rice Paper Cantonese, Halton
"What a gem of a place. Great food and great service. Loved the duck pancakes. Wish we had found this place years ago. We will be back!" | Steven Lord via Google

8. Noodle House, city centre
"This place is a must try if you’re in Leeds and wanting to try authentic Malay/Chinese food. I have been many times and it is always spot on. The noodle dishes are the best, the Laksa is amazing, and the roasted meats are the best you’ll get." | madog b via Google

9. HOME Chinese Restaurant, near Leeds University
"The menu is full of delicious dishes we had to take time to choose from it. We ordered hot and sour soup, the sichuan pork belly, sliced lamb with spring onion and cantonese fillet steak with rice and soft noodle. Everything tasted so good, we will be back for sure to try more." | Google

10. Red Chilli, city centre
"This is a brilliant authentic Chinese restaurant. Food was really tasty and the service was great. They also do the typical British Chinese cuisine too. " | Google

11. Joy's Kitchen, city centre
"Excellent quality food. Prices are slightly higher than average, but portions are slightly larger and probably intended to be shared. Really nice to see a proper Chinese menu and be given that choice - alongside the standard English version. " | Simon Hulme

12. G-Woo, Moortown
"This was the most incredible food! Everything was cooked to perfection. The starters and mains came out quickly but yet they were piping hot and you could tell were completely fresh. All the staff/waiters were great, very attentive and friendly." | Yorkshire Evening Post
