Calilo (Simply Bar & Grill) in Leeds

We've been getting food from Calilo for years. Sometimes we take out, sometimes we eat in. The food is always great and the portion sizes are perfect. The staff are really friendly and clearly care about the food and service. I can't recommend them highly enough. PS: They do great breakfast too.

Great place to eat Highly recommend

Delicious food and great service, thank you. Highly recommended

This is the best food I have had local to me just fantastic food and service

It's now called Hi Coffee but it's the same company that did Calilo/Simply Bar and Grill. The food was perfect. We went for brunch and had eggs royale and then a nutella baklava. Very very happy

Chicken Gyros could have been better - the meet was not soft, neither fresh. Enjoyed the fries.

Really great place, the service, the food and the atmosphere were really really good, would recommend

Great atmosphere, fantastic staff and amazing food.

Food and service excellent. However, the venue is small and, as a result, can feel cramped. Consequently, the atmosphere is not as relaxed as it might be. All in all, though, it is certainly worth a visit.

I am slightly worried my husband might want to marry the chef after saying at least 400 times during his meal it was the best meal he has ever had. I have to agree each time we have been the food has been delicious. We are slightly addicted 3 times in 3 weeks. Yum

Superb food and reasonable prices!

2nd time here. Enjoyed the food even more than at the 1st visit. Was a lovely evening but chose to sit inside. Would go back

Lovely food, been ordering from here for ages now but lately terrible customer service. Ordered tonight to be left waiting all night and they're now ignoring the phone with no refund either. Absolutely disgusting service

Evening I went with a friend for a catch up coffee ☕ and food not busy but does get busy

Went for lunch with my children and it was just perfect. There was no kids meals specifically but they were able to split a main meal into two which worked perfectly. The food quality was lovely and the service was great. I must say that the decor is to an extremely high standard and gives the place a real quality feel. Would definitely recommend! 5*

This was my first time visiting for an evening meal with friends . The food was so delicious and freshly made with a varied menu. A great atmosphere and the staff were very friendly and welcoming. Fabulous service. What a great asset to our local area.

Amazing food, the meats are marinated and cooked to perfection. Some of best kebabs I’ve had. Great friendly service and chilled setting.

Excellent service, food and drink.

Excellent food and service. A bit noisy for me.

Gorgeous food, gorgeous staff - a really lovely evening, thanks so much!

The food was delicious. Lovely place.

The food is absolutely amazing ! We had mixed gyros & kebab pan also the mezze starter was to die for ! The desertes were something else 🥰 couldn’t fault the lovely staff very attentive great value for money, we will be back very soon- was stunning ! ♥️

Stopped for coffee and cake. Both were yummy. Service spot on too.

What an absolute gem! Incredible food, huge portions with fantastic authentic greek flavor. The main plus for us was the fantastic hospitality whilst we were there, good humour from who we assume is the owner. Baklava was also great as a takeaway away treat! Will definitely return

Terrible, they missed the desserts from my takeaway order. When I called, I was told I would have to return to collect it. Not being able to do this I suggested they simply refund me, they refused!!! Thieves pure and simple!

Very good restaurant! Nice and friendly staff, but most importantly- excellent food ! Highly recommended ! Thank you for a great night.

Had the most amazing Greek chicken salad... compliments to the chef. Great place to enjoy dining outside too. Would be great if a small selection of Greek children's menu options were available (smaller portion/cheaper). We will return soon.

We absolutely love the food here and go regularly. The last couple of times we have sadly been disappointed. On our last visit our order was missed and I had to wait another 20 minutes for a takeout, verbal apology given but that was all. On our most recent visit the salad was a massive let down, lots of it had gone brown and was not crispy and fresh. Fresh salad is one of the main parts of greek food! We ordered at 5ish so I would especially expect fresh at the start of evening service. Fingers crossed next time is better and the quality that we used to get remains🤞🏼

Fabulous food every time we come here. Everybody who works here is so lovely and friendly and cannot fault the service. Drinks are spot on too, and theres always the remedy cocktail bar over the road to visit before or/and after for a little tipple. Alternatively if you fancy a bit of brunch.. the chicken club sandwich and a cheeky cappuccino is to die for 😆❤️ 10/10 would recommend 😸🥂

amazing food, very friendly and welcoming , definitely would recommend

Thank you guys, it was brilliant service and the foods are amazing.

Great menu, staff are helpful and food delicious.

Huge portions and great value for money, fast and friendly service.

Great greek food. I mean greereeaaaat. The portions are massive and the lamb is to die for. Imman the owner is lovely and really friendly. She's got a really good thing going on here. There's a little restaurant bit above the take away section and feels totally removed from it We go at least once a month. Enjoy

Been twice, food worthy of Zeus himself, will be coming back again & again & again!

Incredible food and possibly the best service we have had in the UK. Highly recommend

Food is gorgeous and portions are a good size

Went as a family group , lovely lady greeted , food was great even the k8ds enjoyed it 😋 Was our 1st time there and we will def be back

First visit last night. We had a blast the food was absolutely fantastic. I had the lamb kebab. Wow it was delicious. The service was faultless. They couldn't have been any nicer. The owner is such a lovely Gent. Also it's absolutely beautiful inside and outside. We then walked over the road to their Cocktail bar called Remedy. Again brilliant service and such a beautiful tranquil place. Well done for bringing these 2 lovely establishments to our village. Highly recommend a visit you won't be disappointed.

Food lovely and the staff were excellent would recommend

Top spot great staff great atmosphere great food

Been here a few times and loved it but last night service really let the place down. They just couldn’t cope with how busy it was. People were moved tables. Orders didn’t arrive. We had to ask and wait. When the manager was told he was downright rude & argumentative, leaning over the table & raising his voice. Totally unacceptable.

Delicious iced latte on a warm morning... 😋

Went for breakfast, had the full English, excellent quality and service

Beautiful food excellent customer service

Great brunch menu and service with a smile reasonably priced menu will be back soon

Brilliant meal at Calilo - we had the kebab and it tasted great, the chicken was perfect. Service was friendly - will definitely be returning!

What a find! Food was brilliant, as was the service. Must recommend the chocolate baklava if you've a sweet tooth. I was pleasantly surprised, also, when the bill came .

Great Greek food ! I had the Baklava a Canolli and homemade hot chocolate. It was scrumptious 😍. The gyros looked very nice.... I'll go back. The owner is very welcoming

Lovely little spot! I had the mixed Gyros and it was huge and delicious! Great atmosphere - clearly popular. I will certainly be coming back.

I haven been twice, once with my family and once with my partner, both times we have had a wonderful time. The food is incredible and great value for money! The service provided is faultless. Will definitely be back

Loved the food, a great alternative and a really nice place.

We visited here on Sunday evening & so glad we did , the food was delicious & the service was warm & welcoming . I would definitely recommend , the lamb was cooked to perfection & the baklava was on another level. Cant wait to return .

Beautiful food, great customer service and friendly atmosphere

Fantastic meal, great relaxed atmosphere very friendly sociable staff. Got given a free cocktail and dessert for Mothers Day. Highly recommended.

Best food I’ve ever had. Iman was a great waitress

Good service, food and atmosphere

We came on Saturday evening with all tables booked. We owner, I guess it was him, went an extra mile to fit us in for a dinner. Food was great, fresh and hot, drinks are cold so nothing you can say bad. Staff very polite and friendly. Highly recommended. Just book a table first just in case😁

A fantastic lunch at Calilo!! The Aberdeen Angus burger tasted delicious, very juicy and perfectly seasoned. The service was also 5 stars. Can’t wait to visit for dinner (apparently the mixed grill is not to be missed).

Really great new restaurant to the area. Been here a few times now and have been impressed by the quality and consistency of the food, really tasty and fresh. Staff are lovely too. Would recommend!

Amazing food and friendly service. Highly recommend!! The burger was amazing and super fresh ingredients

First time here. Amazing food, really friendly staff. We were staying at the Oulton Hall Hotel and haven’t had any decent food since we arrived. Food here is delicious & only a mile from Oulton Hall Hotel. Will definitely recommend to friends and return.

Overall 10/10 Best ribs I’ve ever tasted, service was great , beer was ice cold( very important) . Just can’t wait for the cocktail bar over the road to finally open !

The food is really tasty and makes you feel like you're in Greece. The service was excellent and even though they were really busy, the staff ensured that we had everything that we needed. The atmosphere was excellent and everyone was welcoming. We would highly recommend giving Calilo a try.

Perfect meal delicious fresh food with great atmosphere and friendly staff

Popped in for coffee. Nice atmosphere. Good service. Didnt have food but menu looked good.

From the moment you enter you are made to feel welcome. The service and food are fantastic.

Top notch Greek food. Friendly, family run restaurant... That's all you need to know. So... Just go and enjoy! (& Remember to tip them!)

Great food, great menu, lovely friendly setting. Family run business with a great atmosphere.

Good food and service makes an enjoyable visit. So good to have a local restaurant for dinner and great for lunch and breakfast too. Current issues for booking on line which will hopefully be resolved.

Love it here. The restaurant is spotless. Great staff. Fantastic

Amazing place! Great food, great staff always a great time when I come here!

What a nice Gem of a find! Nice and cosy good for catch up with friends.

Nice food, good atmosphere, great service. Would definitely recommend and be back 💯

Great doner, best I've had in leeds, I,ll be back.

absolutely great, music was lovely, staff was lovely, food was lovely. great place for lunch. only minor flaw was a lack of many vegan/veg options. had to pick between 1 or 2

Great experience, lovely staff, terrific food.

Amazing Gyros the best around by far

It is very nice food and previously Ordered on a weekend for the last few years but since the new owners have taken over we can’t order as they seem to think Garforth is half hour away …. It’s about 10 minutes !

The food and staff are amazing. The atmosphere is perfect. And the chocolate baklava was to die for. Unfortunately I left me phone at home sorry no pictures

What a lovely addition locally to Rothwell. I visited New Year’s Day with some friends , all the food we had was delicious,the lady who served us was so lovely and helpful as was the gentleman who recommended a delicious bottle of red wine. The restaurant itself has a lovely warm atmosphere and will definitely be going again soon! Thank you!

We came here on NYE for the first time. I’m always apprehensive on a busy night like that but the service & food were incredible. I had the chicken wings & a lamb shank & it was so good. We also had a few cocktails between us, great espresso martini! We’ll definitely be back, a great addition to a small village. I can’t wait to try the breakfast next!

Visited Calilo for the first time on Boxing Day for a full English breakfast after a morning walk. We were impressed with the quality of the food and coffee at a good price. We will most definitely be visiting again as we have been waiting for a good local breakfast place like this. We enjoyed the morning atmosphere and the staff were very accommodating. Thank you.

Have been here a few times now in the morning and early afternoon and have always found it a warm welcome, wonderful food and drinks. Have really enjoyed the coffee.

Had a lovely meal on boxing day. Staff were really friendly and food was amazing. The sharing meze was delicious.

Really enjoyed our first time visiting Calilo. The food was excellent. We will be returning.

We have been visiting Calilo since it was simply bar grill. Amazing food, the best staff who great you like family and just a great restaurant to have so close. Lovely to see it has expanded

First visit for an evening meal and was blown away. Real high quality from start to finish for a party of 21. Great service, great food. Well worth another visit for a more intimate meal.

From the moment we stepped inside, we were greeted warmly by the inviting atmosphere and charming decor. The menu offered a fantastic selection of dishes, each one a delightful masterpiece of flavors and presentation. The staff was incredibly attentive and friendly, making us feel truly valued throughout the entire meal. Every bite was a culinary delight, from the appetizers to the decadent desserts. Overall, a top-notch restaurant that exceeded all expectations. A must-visit for anyone seeking an unparalleled dining experience!

Great first visit to Calilo. Food was excellent and plentiful. Service was very good, all the waitresses were very friendly and helpful. We will return for sure,

Brilliant food with brilliant service.

Best gyro I’ve ever had, worth the 50 mins drive each way every time i go. Amazing service, staff are also so polite and can’t do enough to help! New restaurant is absolutely beautiful, everything is spotless. Thank you calilo!

What a disappointment. We went for a special treat. Food was nice, and we both enjoyed our dishes but sadly they have a long way to go in terms of customer relations. We were told we 'needed to move' halfway through our meals as they needed the table for 7 people. Once moved, we were offered complimentary desserts by a different member of staff, only to find that we were charged for one of them on the bill. I queried this and was told by the owner 'no you were only entitled to chocolate and you asked for baclava' but I was told by the lady at the time a list of complimentary desserts which we could choose from and baclava was on the list. He continued to argue and told me that they needed to 'make a profit' which I thought was a bit rich considering they own the takeaway across the road and another in a neighbouring town. The dessert was £6.99. We just got out coats and left. Won't be going back if this is how they treat their customers. I'd highly recommend Zoya in woodlesford if you would like a nice meal and would like to be treated with a bit of decency.

Amazing meal! Great staff, delicious food and very reasonable prices - highly recommend!

Great little food outlet. Traditional Greek fayre well prepared and served. Dining in such a cosy place adds to the flavour, It may not be a Traditional place to book for an evening out, but it is a little gem, you have to try it. Be different, go provincial, eat Greek made by Greeks.

Loved the food and good music ☺️

A superb leisurely Sunday breakfast. The food was cooked to perfection and really tasty. Staff are friendly and attentive.

I went with 25 other women last evening and had a great time. We were looked after by upbeat cheerful waiters and nothing was too much trouble. The food Moussaka was a treat. Modern decor tastefully applied I will be back. Looks very busy I would book as soon as you decide to go. Sue C

Had breakfast and coffee this morning, both were amazing. Great addition to the village

Absolutely amazing place, great food and the people are wonderful. Would highly recommend to EVERYONE!!!
