East 59th is named after the address of D&D’s New York outpost, Guastavino’s, and will have an American inspired menu overseen by Executive Chef Lee Murdoch. Taking inspiration from New York’s vibrant nightlife, East 59th will be a glamorous all-day grill, bar and rooftop terrace over 5400 sq ft and boasting panoramic city views.

Des Gunewardena, Chairman & CEO of D&D said: “This will be our second significant venture in Leeds and we enjoy very much being a part of the city’s growing restaurant scene”.
