East Bar Lounge Grill in Leeds

Our new favourite find for Sunday dinner

Fab food & great music from Nigel the pianist. Defo recommended.

The food and service were amazing and in a great setting. 1st time here but will deffo be returning. This is a 5 * gem

This restaurant catered for my work event at Maximus. The food was amazing, and with great variety.

Food is really good ! Authentic curry . Perhaps amongst the best Asian restaurants in Leeds . Speciality dishes may take a tad longer to prepare but well worth the wait

A great evening out: good food with a superb atmosphere topped off by excellent piano renditions (jazz versions of 90's classics and even the odd Bollywood number!).

The Piano man set the scene, he did amazing and could play every track we wanted. the Staff as well were really nice and pleasant!

Had a take away…. Amazing food you can definitely taste the difference 👍👍 so much more flavour 🤘

Arrived around 6pm bank holiday Monday to a less than half full restaurant. After 25 minutes had to ask the waiter if he’d take the order, ten minutes later someone came to take the order. Waited for 50 minutes more and still not even a popadom or a drink had shown up, Got up, complained and walked out after wasting about an hour and a half in total. It’s a shame because I’ve been before and enjoyed the food but never again. Service was abysmal.

They have no allergen menu!! Which far as I’m aware is a legal requirement in all restaurants!! Apart from that the food was lovely but overpriced in my opinion, £12 for a small pot of curry then extra for the rice. Again it was lovely but very expensive imo.

Service is excellent especially sherby

Absolutely brilliant all round , food service everything. Lovely pianist sets the mood. Can't wait to visit again !!

It was a good experience I especially liked that the bar above the restaurant had a lively nightclub vibe about it. The only thing I'd say improve is clean the fixed seating areas as they look discoloured and not cleaned in a while. The naan breads are very large I enjoyed the tasty curry I ordered.

Our recent visit to East Bar and Lounge Restaurant was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we stepped in, we were greeted with professionalism and warmth that set the tone for the entire afternoon. The quality of the food was simply outstanding. Every dish was prepared to perfection, bursting with flavors that delighted our taste buds. The menu offered a variety of options, ensuring that every member of our family, including my children, found something to love. The staff service was impeccable. They were attentive, friendly, and went above and beyond to make sure our dining experience was flawless. Their dedication to providing top-notch service truly stood out. The ambiance of the restaurant was peaceful and sophisticated. The soothing sound of the piano in the background added a touch of elegance, creating a serene environment where we could relax and enjoy our meal. My children had the most amazing experience, and it was heartwarming to see how much they enjoyed themselves. The staff made them feel special and ensured they had everything they needed. We will definitely be back for more. East Bar and Lounge Restaurant has set a high standard, and we can't wait to return for another wonderful dining experience. Thank you for an unforgettable afternoon!

Great food and lovely bar inside too.

Can't fault it. The place is well presented, has a great atmosphere with the piano in the corner. Food was excellent and the options felt endless. Portion size was generous. Staff were attentive and helpful, they overheard my mum mention it was my birthday and even brought over a cake. Great place

Great, good food advice. Usual very good standard. Is it me or have the prices gone up. Not the cheapest, but I would say you pay for what you get here. Updated 2024.

Lovely food and friendly staff. Did not have to wait long for food and when we got it. It was spot on.

Amazing food and very attentive friendly staff. The range of meals is huge and what we had was beautifully presented and about delicious. Very reasonably priced as well. Will definitely eat here again and also recover to others :)

Food too hot not the normal heat of a balti . 11 of us went and all had different mains and all said there's was hotter than average ..staff are ok but hover around yr table waiting to pounce . Atmosphere is what you make.it your self as there really isn't any . Floor under our table was dirty with old dried up chips stuck under chair leg . Dirty knife ..add sir charge too which is a bit cheeky !! 3 *** is all id say , prob wouldn't go back

When we come here for something to eat its always a family occasion so they'll be 30+ of us and for such a large group the service is always great waiters are so attentive and food is delicious 😋

Liver was done to perfection. However, cocktails not right not in the correct glasses..... Or size.

Food is very tasty, and traditional. Staff are attentive and are keeping an eye on tables so if you need anything they are available for you. Kid friendly, and they have many options for children aswel. My daughter had a pizza and fries with apple juice and enjoyed it. My niece had fish and fries, the batter was crunchy and little one enjoyed her meal. The only downfall can be some of the customers, not the most pleasant to be around. Very rowdy and loud, conversations are not mature but this isn't the restaraunts fault as they have to accomodate everyone.

Just eaten here for the first time, 2 adults and 2 kids aged 14 and 10. We had starters, mains and deserts. The food was amazing, everyone complimented the quality of the food. The service was great as well, the atmosphere was great too. All in all it was a lovely meal, quality food, great atmosphere and reasonably priced. No complaints and will definitely be going back!

Lovely food and brilliant staff! Highly recommend.

The best palak paneer you will find

Super and cool environment with friendly staff ⚕️ and the Chefs are make awesome food 🥝

Beautiful food excellent customer service and fab atmosphere

The staff can be friendly ,the quality of the food is very inconsistent varying from very good to really poor and small portions also be careful with takeaways as they are very prone to missing items off the order

Recently just ate there with friends. We all agreed with thought the atmosphere was tense. We got sat right next to the piano player which was nice but was too loud as we couldn’t hardly hear what anyone was saying. Waitress took our orders and we got back “is that all you’re ordering” not exactly professional. More than likely won’t return.

Always a nice place decent food good service

Very pleasant & welcoming, food is hot a tasty… pianoist is fab great addition to the restaurant :)

Brilliant place to go for authentic Indian food. The atmosphere was lovely the staff were amazing very welcoming and catered to our every need. The food was quick served but cooked beautifully and well seasoned.

Went with 11 family members before Christmas and it was a very good experience myself and partner will be going again thanks to staff and it even had parking great job

Absolutely lovely, best food I've had in a long time and lovely staff!

Just been to East for a lovely meal. From the warm friendly genuine welcome, to the attentive prompt service, to the delicious, nicely presented food. I can’t rate this place highly enough. All in all it was a lovely dining experience. I didn’t feel herded in and out like some of the popular but tired places on Leeds Road that aren’t taking as much care with the quality of food now. I looked online to compare menus and prices the Leeds Road ones don’t display prices, but East’s menu is very very extensive with everything including prices displayed online. It felt like a really lovely quality meal out and well worth the money. Which is really great prices. The place looks new and fresh with a classy look to the place. There’s a great drinks, wine and large cocktail list too. Give it a try, I don’t think you’ll be disappointed. Oh and it’s not a big chain. It’s a local Pudsey quality lovely restaurant.

Mixed starter was good and full of flavour. Main dishes unfortunately not so good. Every curry tasted the same and just tasted like the base gravy, no spices or flavour coming through. Staff polite and helpful.

Excellent restaurant to go to, food is delicious, service is excellent, and service is very friendly 👍

Not for me at all. Folk were raving about it and some of our group enjoyed it but as a bradford man this place didn't meet my standards. Staff were spot on and I couldn't have asked for better service but the food wasn't for me. Bland and the chicken wasn't nice. My wife struggled to eat her meal and my chicken and spinach was spinachless. Only my view though, I have pretty high standard as a bradford man when it comes to chicken and spinach curry.

Just brilliant staff and fantastic service and excellent food Thanks East family fantastic

Delivered a great Christmas party buffet. Everyone enjoyed the food

Always a pleasure eating here. Staff are very attentive foods always spot on!

Atmosphere was great, we were a big party and the service was faultless. The staff were great with my young kids Food was OK, just standard really but overall a really good night

Always amazing food and service. Never fail to impress.. my go to meal has to be the sunday carvery... amazing

I would recommend East bar and grill to anyone, a very enjoyable experience, will definitely go again.

Nice food, a little treat for my 72nd Birthday and Alisha's 18th

Great food and customer service

Thank you for a lovely evening last Sunday. There was eight of us and everyone enjoyed the evening immensely. Will be back soon!!!

Always a great experience...food and service second to none 👍

Lovely place and a customer service

What can I say? Absolutely brilliant! The place is lovely & classy (the ladies toilets are huge & even have a hairdryer & curlers!). We did wait a while for our main course but that wasn't an issue at all because it gives you a chance to soak up the atmosphere and listen to the amazing pianist, Nigel. Having that live pianist just takes it to the next level, for me. The food was delicious - I had to get a doggy bag there was so much! I honestly cannot fault this place. It was our first time (hubby & I) but it definitely won't be our last!

Absolutely delicious starters and the main course meal lamb karahi was lovely

If you’re planning on going for a Sunday roast dont bother, food was so bland. Im someone that likes spices, was expecting abit of flavour on the chicken but it was completely bland, waste of money. Was close to a school dinner.

Lovely restaurant- great food and good service.

Wow! Def 5 stars. We were walk ins and the atmosphere was vining, food was super tasty, enormous portions (biggest naan ever), good value and the service was excellent. A brilliant pianist added a lovely ambience and a surprise birthday sparkler was the cherry on the cake. We came from Norfolk or we would be back every week! Tell your friends, go there for a celebration and you won't regret it. Thank you East! <3

I Can't fault it, it was great value superb service staff were on point welcoming and helpful... delicious food and lots of variety with a wonderful chilled and classy atmosphere...the in house live pianist throughout was brilliant Top draw

As a group of 16 booking on arrival I was told that none of my group was here yet , would I like to sit at the bar or wait at the table, I chose the table as I had a 7 month old baby with me, at the table sat the rest of my group that I was told wasn’t there. I had to ask for a high chair for the baby. A lot of the staff just stand there in a line and stare at you and felt very rushed with wanting to take orders etc even tho we didn’t have enough menus for everyone to look at, it felt like they wanted us out of there never mind the amount of money we were all spending, despite this the food was very nice although a few of us did get upset stomachs.

I’ve only ever been for the Sunday Roasts and I do love it. I usually get the mixed (chicken, beef and lamb). Really nice, the veg is great too. I heard that they’ve changed things recently but I bet it’s still great!

Great food and service. I would highly recommend East.

Best place for a halal roast dinner… service and food is amazing… the atmosphere was great too.. decent prices.. we had the mix beef and chicken roast dinner absolutely divine

Sadly will not be coming back any time soon.

We pre booked for a group of 25 for my daughters birthday. From the minute we stepped in everything was perfect. The pianist was a lovely touch to our dining experience. The food was delicious, hot and served in a timely manner. The service I received from the manager Mr Shabey was perfect. I would definitely recommend East to all my family friends.

I have been here many times and the service,food & atmosphere are always spot on. Live music (pianist) had a really soothing feel as usual.i would recommend if you haven't been here before give it a try 👍🏾

Slow watering service. Menu items ordered unavailable. Informed after lengthy wait. Neglected by server. Orders messed up. Wouldn't go back again Ever

Absolutely amazing food and service. Will definitely be returning.

Fabulous place. Great food and service

Good modern restaurant food is good and service excellent.

AMAZING food. Great choice of drinks. Only slight down side felt a bit pressured by the staff.

Beautiful modern looking restaurant, nice atmosphere, clean inside plenty of staff excellent service from them, HALAL food tasty to I love the Sunday roast, chicken nambali, prices are reasonable, free parking onsite

I recommend, atmospheric place, very good cuisine, clean.

Excellent food, prices cost no more than the last local take away, excellent atmosphere pianist playing lovely background music.

Went to a private function upstairs, all I can say is the food is to die for, it is beautiful

DO NOT GO TO THIS RESTAURANT we ordered the food at 7:30 and at 9 pm the food still hadn’t arrived The lamb chops were pink The waiters don’t know what they are doing The manager with the glasses was no help and had no consideration for the customers LAST TIME IL EVER GO TO THIS PLACE IN MY LIFE AVOID AT ALL COSTS

Had the English Sunday roast , the food was was cold and rushed I ended up with a bad belly the next day would not return 🤢

So we went for a nice mother's day meal but unfortunately, they really let themselves down. We asked for a high chair, we were instructed to get our own from the store place next to our table. When we picked up the highchair, it was full of broken glass, which inevitably led to a complaint from the word go. We were given no menus and had to ask 3 times. When our food did arrive, it was cold, not even warm. We had to send all our meals back. They reheated our plates and re served them ehich took the frisp out of the yorkshire pudding and potatoes. The veg that was supposed to be served with our meals was served after we had almost finished. We waited for our drinks and again these were served almost at the end of the meal. The dinner itself was nice, however unfortunately due to all the errors, it was not a pleasant experience and so I am unable to leave a better review. We were given a 10% concession off the bill, which was a nice gesture. I have been to this establishment several times before and never had a bad experience. I'm putting it down to a bad day at the office

Had a birthday party hear yesterday and the food was ok and loop warm.When you buy a gosht lamb curry it's served on a skillet and is sizzling mine was not at all that it was not Evan hot and dry with no sauce few people at are party sed the food was not hot at all then we asked for the bill and they tried doing us on that plus a £24 service charge I was gob smacked. I will not return to this place very disappointed shame really

Went with a party of 16 food was awful and service was terrible. And getting charged for water which took ages to arrive was just ridiculous. When we have been to other restaurants we havnt been charged for pickle tray which they charged us for. Will never go again

Wish I could give 4.5, the food itself was 5 stars without question, probably the best curry I have ever had and will 100% return. The loss of half a star comes from 2 minor points. 1st is the table sizes we found very small especially when ordering multiple sides and dishes it quickly becomes very cramped. 2nd is the toilets, while these are clean it looks like there has been a flush cover missing for quite some time and needs probably half a days worth of maintenance works for a handy man to do some caulking etc to bring it up to the standards of the rest of the place. The service was outstanding, the food quality was divine.

Brill place food Best in Yorkshire love the piano nice atmosphere will be going back on monday

Got a curry tonight 50.00 for 2 a treat for me and my wife curry tasteless some weird mixed starter wasn't even cooked chips soggy it's a thumbs down from us only thing what was any good was prawn puri we will not be spending our hard earned money back here again thanks for ripping us off

Quality food and service with some good offers on

Food was lovely but didn’t like how they brought starter out before the poppadoms then while we was still eating our starts they brought pickup tray and poppadoms out then asked us if we wanted our main. Like can’t you see we’re still I’m middle of eating. Felt extremely rushed and wasn’t impressed with the service. I understand if they was busy but they certainly wasn’t busy

Beautiful place to have food. Highly recommended 👌

hi I would like to say the food was delicious the staff were very helpful and polite, also the atmosphere is very nice especially the piano, being played in the background is very subtle dessert were delicious too my husband took us out for my sons birthday meal ,first time iv been ,and will go again hopefully

Absolutely love this place. Me and my best friend are regulars. Loving the “beat the clock” menu. Waiter Darnell is so caring and always welcomes us with a smile. My fave food spot.

Great food.....and a live pianist

Food was horrible, tasteless and cold .First time using this for takeaway and will definitely be our last .

Traditional, Flavourful, Exquisite, Mouth Watering, Fills the right spot. Amazing restaurant to visit for authentic food, great atmosphere, hats off to the gentleman who was playing the piano, it takes years to get gifted fingers like that, trust me i'd know.

Food luke warm n curry if thats what u call it wasnt nice! Made from little scraps of meat!! Was poor quality and mixed starter go 1 tiny piece chicken tikka, smallest piece of fish, mini frozen samosa and small bit of chop! Very disappointed and for the price they charge was a joke!!! Wont be returning to be ripped off n have poor quality scaps! N charged a service charge!

2nd time I have been here, first time for lunch and this time, Thurs night before Christmas. Service and food excellent on both occasions. Very busy this last visit and could hardly hear each other talk but there were lots of xmas outings, so to be expected.

Harron is an excellent server and made my mom and dad's 46th wedding anniversary special by getting the live pianist to play their special song and surprised them with a lovely chocolate cake. The food was excellent and they worked with me to try something new. Highly recommend East.

Ordered food for delivery. Items missing. Didn’t care claiming they had no drivers to sort. Won’t be coming back. We placed an order 3 months prior with similar issues but thought we’d give them the benefit of the doubt and try again.

Food was very good, Nigel the piano man played very nice background music and played one of my favorites “Another day in paradise”, made the experience much more enjoyable.

The most wonderful meal this evening Fabulous staff delivered excellent attentive service couldn’t ask for better will definitely eat there again soon

The food was outstanding. I highly recommend it.

WORST PLACE TO EAT. STAF AWFUL 😖. SHOCKING FOOD. WAITING FOR TABLE 30MINS,WE RANG TO BOOK TABLE, BUT IT'S NOT NEEDED.

Great service, the food was spot on 👌

electrifying atmosphere and good food

Used this restaurant since 2011 and was excellent until last Thursday 8th Dec, dont know whats happened but not up to usual standards. Took my husbsnd for his birthday. Firstly there was curry all down the back of the chair i was to sit on, curry swimming in oil and chicken was dry, chapattis were like compressed cardboard. We wont be returning was a complete let down. A shame because it was our go to restaurant in Pudsey.

Ordered a takeaway and the food was packed in a branded carry box which was a great first impression and also kept the food piping hot. The grilled starters were delicious and the family naan did not disappoint either. We will be ordering from East restaurant again and look forward to visiting the restaurant too.
