The food was out of this world. Freshly prepared and distinctly Middle Eastern. Loved it. The staff were very friendly. A meal for two with drinks was about 25. Rating: 4.5/5 Photo: Google

The service and food are first class. The flavours produced in this type of cuisine are lovely and make a very pleasant change from normal English cooking. Rating: 4.5/5 Photo: Staff
4. Soosi

5. Falafel Guys
Love their halloumi and falafel wraps, best in Leeds. Always go to their van on Briggate or at the assembly. Would definitely recommend them. Very polite and hospitable staff. A bit pricey, but worth it! Rating: 5/5 Photo: Staff
6. Baba Jaga Restaurant
The food is great and quite a significant amount cheaper than most other Persian style restaurants. The food is really tasty, generous portions and you get a free soup starter. Rating: 4.5/5 Photo: Shutterstock
