Gino D'Acampo Restaurant Leeds in Leeds

Gorgeous family meal here, waiters really attentive, even made a paper napkin rose for my ten year old! Would definitely recommend and will return!

The days when I was in Napoli xoxox

The ambiance was casually grand. The service was top-notch – the staff were attentive, friendly, and went out of their way to ensure we had everything we needed. And then there's the food! Every dish was a delight. The quality of the ingredients was evident. To top it all off, the prices were very reasonable, making it an excellent value for the quality of the experience. The restaurant's location is a big plus, in city center. It's easily accessible and adds to the overall convenience of dining here. Great atmosphere, excellent service, delicious food, reasonable prices, and a fantastic location. I'll definitely be returning!

Lovely Meal for 2 - Fantastic service from Mateo, our waiter. Extremely friendly and chatty but not overly so. Food was very good. Value for money and worth a visit for a special occasion. Lisa from Dublin

Very little atmosphere, service was excellent,

Gino's restaurants are the only ones I frequent when I'm in England, the alternative would be to take pots and stoves with me and cook myself, truly a heritage to be preserved and made known to these English people, who at least learn to eat well 😘😘

Welcoming staff, delicious food

Been seversl times and it was spot on.Not so yesterdsy.We were the only ones in at 12 noon and we had to send the food back as cold. No appiogy.One waitress on duty who was surely and not helpful There was no atmosphere as only two other people came in.The dessert was ibviously shop bought and tasteless so at £26 for 2 bland courses is not worth it Thus use to be our lively go to place but will not be returning

All-around excellent. Can not fault it. It was very well priced

A service charge for a restaurant with no service? Sadly, while the food at Gino’s was genuinely excellent, the service was nothing short of dreadful. From the moment we arrived, there was no welcome, no introduction to the menu, and not even an offer to take a drinks order. We eventually had to flag down one of the scarce waiting staff just to place our food order—and that was the last we saw of them. Our meals were brought out by kitchen porters, who, ironically, were far more polite and professional than any of the actual servers or the manager. When I asked for the (undeserved) service charge to be removed, the bill was practically thrown at us, and we were sent off without so much as a goodbye. A real shame, because the food—especially the garlic bread and lasagne—was outstanding. With decent service, this place could be a gem. As it stands, the kitchen deserves applause; the front of house, a serious rethink.

My favourite restaurant in Leeds I go regularly and the food is consistently superb. The portions are generous, especially the Bruschetta Gamberoni! The Lunch Menu is great value for money. Every staff member is friendly, very accommodating and attentive. I would highly recommend.

A birthday meal table booked for 12 people. We asked to move as we were in a corner with no other diners, atmosphere next to non. On moving the service was very poor. Children had eaten and finished and the adults had still not got there mains. Our hostess was in a foul mood too. The adult whose birthday it was, didn’t eat his main as it was cold on arrival. Overly priced food & drink, as to what was received. £30 service charge we didn’t pay as we had no service provided. Overall a very bad experience & one that we will not be returning again.

Food was good but pizza was really soggy and all the cheese fell off the pizza when I was eating it was very pricy as the bill was 181$

We went for a meal here quite by accident one Saturday, as we were wondering around Leeds looking for somewhere for Lunch. I went with my husband and daughter - it is rather expensive in my opinion, so I would probably save it for a nice/special occasion in future! The staff were absolutely fab with my 4 year old, there was colouring in for her, and the waiter did a 'magic trick' for her by making a napkin into a rose! We had the Tri Color Salad with added Chicken Breast, and it was delightful, I would recommend it (~£21.50), and my daughter had the chicken and chips (£12.50), with the bottle of water our bill for just this came to about £67!! My only other comment was that the kids meal comes with chips, salad, or peas - so if you child chooses chips they won't get ANY veg at all with their meal which I thought was quite shocking. Most restaurants we've visited offer both for kids, and so based on this I wouldn't be in a rush to return with my daughter. Overall, great atmosphere and lovely food, just a little more expensive than I was expecting!

This place is not authentic pizzeria, and furthermore you don't know how to operate with pizzas, the dough should be still round and not take the box shape.

A stylish restaurant with a lively and welcoming atmosphere

Delicious food, great service, amazing atmosphere 🙌🏼

So, my husband booked this as a birthday surprise for me. He didn't tell me till very close to the time and I always look at reviews before committing. I looked at them anyway and saw how very dreadful the vast majority of them were. I can honestly say I was not hoping for much. How wrong was I. From the moment we arrived (which was half an hour early) we just thought we'd grab some drinks by the bar whilst waiting for our table. We were greeted by staff with the warmest of welcomes. Offered our table at time of arrival if we wished - we accepted. Our waiter who looked after us throughout our dinner was attentive (without being intrusive) funny, professional and made our experience thoroughly enjoyable. It was my first time at this restaurant and I told him what I like and he offered me the foods he thought matched. Let me tell you - they did. Our food arrived quickly (but not rushed) and each of the foods we ordered were absolutely beautiful. Both courses were super tasty and perfectly cooked. Even the "well done" steak my husband insists ordering (his preference) - much to my disappointment was just delicious. This has absolutely taught me not to judge based on other peoples reviews. We had a fabulous night and dining experience. Great start to my birthday celebrations.

Great service and a pretty restraunt, but the food was very underwhelming.

The grilled scallops are amazing, and it's a great date atmosphere.

Gino’s is always a great experience. The staff are always super attentive and knowledgeable about allergies and the menu. Fresh pasta and ingredients make it a special night. Big thanks to my new Argentine friend, Mateo, for taking care of us!

Don't bother unless you want to be ripped off pasta was dry & dessert was tasteless

We had 3 coarse meals I have worked in Italian kitchens for almost 20 years. The lasagne is the best I have ever had . I can't fault the night we had there . The food and service was very good warm friendly and professional. I can't wait till our next time in a Gino's Restaurant All in all Fantastico . Thank you for a bloody good night.

Called in this Sunday for lunch. Staff were very attentive and welcoming. Starters for three and a couple of pizzas with salad, all washed down with a bottle of rose. Great food and great team today. Keep up the good work.

Dimutru was an amazing host, made me and my friend feel so welcome and attended to our needs, food was amazing and tasty! Would deffo go there again!

First time in the “new” Gino’s for my son’s 23rd birthday and will certainly go back. Food & ambience good and the service from Dimitri exceptional……thank you.

Food was amazing! Very good prices The staff were fantastic, very helpful and kind and made sure our group had everything we needed for a great evening. I would highly recommend this if you ever visit Leeds - VIP service - thank you Xx

The starters were right and uncomplicated. The main course was decent, though not particularly memorable or exciting—just okay. I had the pasta al frutti di mare (or perhaps it was al vongole?); the seafood, however, was fresh, seemingly unfrozen and of good quality with a firm and meaty texture. The dessert, unfortunately, was a disappointment. Serving a tasteless tiramisu marinated in alcohol in an Italian restaurant feels like a culinary offense! The highlight of the dinner was the overall experience, made even better by Dimitri’s excellent service, attention, and kindness. He truly elevated the evening, and I give him full credit for making it an enjoyable visit.

Wow the first time being here and everything was perfect - the food was exceptional. Was definitely worth the money and will definitely be coming back!

Dimitri is amazing best service ever. Such a welcoming and lovely man. Made my friends birthday super special. She had a amazing time and I will continously come back to this restaurant as it's just so good. We had pasta and cake for dessert. The food is exquisite x

I went out with my family to Gino D'Acampo in Leeds city centre. The waitress service wasn't very good. One of my family members ordered Lasagne and the pasta was all burnt around the edges, I also ordered some tenderstem broccoli as a side to go with my main meal which was almost cold, even after sending the first portion back and under cooked. The waitress also managed to mess our 2nd drinks order up by bringing one of my family members a bottle of diet coke instead of coke zero. The food was definitely not up to the same high standard, as it was from a previous visit to the old Gino D'Acampo's in Leeds a good few years ago when we went to celebrate a family member's 60th birthday. The Lasagne was definitely not worth £18 and the tenderstem broccoli was a complete rip-off at £5.95 per portion. Overall a big disappointment and definitely not value for money and very much overpriced. Very disappointing indeed. There was also a 10 percent discretional service charge added to the whole bill for a party of five, making the final bill total £178,48p. Without the extra discretional service charge the bill was £162.25p Absolutely disgusting. Most definitely a complete rip-off and extremely bad value for money given the quality and standard of the food. I would definitely not recommend this restaurant to anyone else.

On a short trip paying a visit to my daughter at Leeds Uni. Started by cocktail tasting at the bar and am grateful to the delicate attention and drinks recommendation from Viktor and Debbie. Both were great hosts… If you are in a mood for something different the Banana Daiquiri; Mezcal Diavolo; and the Last Word were all great experiences. D’Acampo for dinner was a good finish. From the Primi to the Secondi the food had a good flavour all was well balanced although perhaps a touch too acidic (young tomato cherry perhaps?) but overall tasty and worth it. I must add that, the good humour, professionalism and impeccable service from Dimitri made the difference. His attention will make you forget any shortfall and appreciate the best only of the whole experience.

Absolutely incredible i must say it was on my first valentine's date with my girlfriend and we both are a sucker for Italian food. This is an amazing spot for the meal. The service was amazing the food was outstanding and the atmosphere was incredible definitely coming back here again for future dates that's for sure

UPDATE: I’m retracting my positive review of this restaurant after a terrible experience. This is unacceptable service for one of Leeds’ finer restaurants. We spent an hour and thirty-five minutes there, just for a main course and a drink. The restaurant was mostly empty, but we were waiting for 30 MINUTES before anyone came to take our order or check on us. By then, we were so deflated that we ordered our main courses and drinks immediately. It took another 10 minutes for someone to bring a bottle of water to our table, followed by another 10 minutes for our drinks. The mains finally arrived, and I had specifically ordered a vegetarian dish, but I got meat instead. The server asked, “Is that going to be a problem for you?” Shocking. I wouldn’t recommend this place, especially for a special occasion, because the service will ruin the joy. I definitely won’t be returning. I urge the restaurant to train their staff on basic etiquette and dietary requirements. I’m waiting for a resolution. Previous visit: Had a very nice meal, excellent service, great menu, looking forward to coming back !

Thank you for the pleasant atmosphere. My husband and I had a great time celebrating my birthday at your place. Prosperity to you and grateful customers.

Every dish was bursting with flavor!

Such a vibrant and colorful menu.!!

Sunday evening visit - no atmosphere, almost empty. The staff were lovely and very professional, but both my chosen starter and main were not available (busy night on Saturday and sold out) My tuna was overcooked and very dry. Such a shame as we were really looking forward to the meal.

Loved the food and the atmosphere. Definitely recommended.

Pasta cooked perfectly. Dessert platter also excellent. Tried the D'Acampo wines. Recommend to try once as a night out.

The staff was very helpful and polite in special Lupe. Also the food was delicious!

Went with my family for my birthday, great service, lovely food.

Delicious food, plenty of choice. Brilliant, friendly staff made you feel comfortable and at ease. Thoroughly enjoyable experience. Thank you

We had great experience, we reached earlier than our booking but they managed to give us table , food is very delicious, usually I don't eat eggplant but the way they made lasagnia it made me eat .verrry delicious..........must try vegetarian options

Great atmosphere, good food with a nice touch & really great service all round, well worth a visit. It was always busy too which is a great sign.

Food incredible, cheesecake was to die for! Really enjoyed our 3 course meal and price was good. Try it you wont be dissatisfied

My partner and I had a sharing starter consisting of arancini balls, prawn bruschetta and tomato bruschetta, for mains I had the boar fettuccine and my partner had the lasagne. The food was overall extremely mid tier and dramatically overpriced for what it was. The service and the wine was good, but this could not make up for our disappointment at the food (that you could honestly make better at home). If you’re looking for an Italian in Leeds I’d recommend Sarto or Stuzzi and avoid this chain.

Great food,great service lovely styled restaurant. The Cocktails is a must got to be one of the best places in leeds to get the perfect cocktails.

I ordered veal in bread crumbs, It was so tough that I had a job cutting it, I was chewing over and over, and I was spitting it out as it wouldn't break down. The Mariot Hotel is great, but we will never go back to that restaurant that's inside the hotel again.

If you go to this restaurant Keep your coat on it is very cold. I was shivering by the time we left and since then I'm not at all well .

Disappointed with the food which tasted asnof it had been repeated and not as fresh or hot as I'd expect

Fenzi was an amazing server, he made our experience at Gino’s truly fine dining and was so attentive and helpful with us. We will definitely be back soon!

Our waiter Fenzi was attentive, funny and very efficient. The food was delicious, best garlic bread ever!!!

Appreciated Fenzi’s wonderful service on NYE.

Fenzi was really polite and had perfect service, had lovely food and a lovely time.

My sister and I came here for Christmas dinner, we ended up staying till last orders. Everything about the experience was next level. A massive thank you to all the staff that made this day extra special.

What an amazing lunch experience at the venue on Christmas Day. The restaurant was impeccably prepared, the staff (didn’t get the managers name) and Fenzi were simply on-point! The food was fantastic and was well worth the cost. You will definitely see us again. Well done 👏🏼

Visited for Xmas meal with friends, booked and paid deposit in advance. Table not ready on time, waited at least 20 minutes in bar area. Food ok but one off meals had a side order of veg that arrived after main course was finished, very disappointing. Bill arrived and forgot about deposit, don’t think they believed us at first. On leaving service was bad, even ended up having to go in coat area to get our own coats, which would worry me if visiting again. Maybe we were unlucky but it was not busy.

Great food! Fenzi was a fantastic waiter!

Thanks to Fenzi for serving us on Christmas Day. What a special meal for the family.

My family and I agree that the food, service and atmosphere deserves 5 stars and was a memorable Christmas dinner. Thank you Fenzi for amazing service.

Everything was perfect—the food, the service, and the atmosphere!!!!!!!!!!!

Starter and dessert were great. Sirloing overcooked

When you leave a place you should be talking about how much you’ve enjoyed the meal. (Which we did). Instead, all we were talking about is how much the service charge was. We we four people and had three bowls of pasta and a pizza. Service charge £21!!! This is disgraceful. Of course we did not pay it, but this is not something that the diner should have to ask to be removed from the bill. If a customer is happy with the food and wants to leave a tip then this should be at their own discretion.

This is my second review and I have to say I’m super impressed. We had a party of over 20 people in September and both the food and service pre booking and during the meal was excellent. Special thanks to our servers - Daniel, Aleks and Dimitri for looking after us.

Very disappointed ☹️. Stayed over in Marriott hotel last night and decided to order some food to the room. Unfortunately my veggie pasta had a piece of a bone in it and lasagne tasted of nothing. Bill is shocking. Two bottles of mineral water £11.50 which turns out to taste like tap water. £5 for brining it to a room in the same building and £9.11 for service on top of that? Shame on you.

We absolutely loved our family meal here. Dimitri was just the best. All of the food and service is just perfect. We eat out a lot but this is far better. Thank you!

We had a lovely meal in Gino's. We did not have to wait too long for our food and when it came it was hot and very tasty. The nduja spare ribs were particularly good, the meat just fell off the bone. We were looked after by Fenzi, who made sure we had everything we needed. He helped select the wine and his recommendation of the special creme brulee was very much appreciated, it was absolutely gorgeous. We will definitely be returning. This is not a cheap restaurant, but the food and service and surroundings were excellent.

Never having been to a Gino DeCampo restaurant, I found myself dining at one in Leeds 17th September 2024. I must say the food was great and our waitress Faith was very attentive to our table and displayed a good understanding of the menu. Furthermore, what meals she wasn’t fully knowledgeable about, brought other staff to our table to answer any other questions. Next time I’m up in Leeds, I will make a point of dining here again. Thank you Faith and staff for great evening meal out.

Been here today, 6 ladies for lunch whilst Christmas shopping in Leeds. Such a beautiful restaurant. Food was totally gorgeous and the staff were amazing. Daniel was super helpful, friendly and generous! And Giuseppe was lovely to chat to, a lovely man. The staff really made our visit, we can not wait to come back! Thank you all so much for such a lovely time, we didn’t want to leave!

Our server Madi was absolutely fantastic, couldn’t do enough for us. He made us incredible welcome, a credit to the restaurant. We will be back!

Absolutely fantastic afternoon at gino’s in leeds. Our waiter, Dimitri, went above and beyond to make our visit the best possible. Always on hand, the guy is a credit to your restaurant. It was my birthday and kindly offered me a free glass of el vino. I work in hospitality myself and have done for many years and hard working people like dimitri are so hard to come by. The food was delicious and every bit what we have come to expect at this place. We visit gino’s all over the place, Liverpool, leeds, Newcastle etc and always stay in there hotels. The 360 bar in Liverpool is a must if you haven’t stayed there before. Myself and my partner would both like to meet him someday while we are staying at one of the hotels( the missus is more desperate for some reason)😂

Visited mid November 2024. Served by Fenzi. In a word - Fantastic. Visited late (9:45) as a hotel walk in, wasn’t expecting a warm reception given it was late but Fenzi made me feel instantly welcome, and didn’t make me feel like an inconvenience. Drinks were good, old fashioned was a bit generic but wine (suggested by Fenzi) was a great pairing. Food was great. We’re not talking fine dining, but simple, high quality ingredients with a bit of flare - it was brilliant. I was a little apprehensive, some chefs who put their name to an italian restaurant don’t take it seriously (see my scathing review of Jamie Oliver’s Italian place in Edinburgh..) but this is nothing like that. In summary, I’d recommend!

The waiter Fenzi, was very friendly and accommodating and was very helpful in sharing recommendations and options

the waiters we had tonight were friendly and really helpful when we couldn’t decide what to have and the food was lovely!

All the food was great. The restaurant was busy making for a good atmosphere. It was a bit slow from sitting down to ordering drinks/food but great service other than that

Amazing Meal - Fenzi looked after us all evening, incredibly knowledgeable and attentive

A significant downgrade compared to the old venue. Very overpriced as it's now part of the Marriott hotel. The food was incredibly bland and seemed like it was microwaved. You can get better mussels from Tesco that you boil. The service is very poor, not very friendly and didn't seem at all experienced. The staff seemed confused by basic requests and restaurant etiquette. (We waited 15 mins for our bottle of wine and then they struggled to open it) This place is trying way too hard pretending to be a stylish restaurant when the quality across the board is 1* and you'll end up paying £150 for 2 starters/main and some drinks. AVOID

Fenzi gave us great service Also great looking chappy 😉

My partner and I had an unforgettable time celebrating our anniversary at your restaurant. The evening was made even more special thanks to Kevin, who went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. His attentiveness and kindness truly enhanced our experience. Thank you for making our celebration so memorable!

Disappointing! Despite the nice atmosphere and friendly staff, I was disappointed with my visit this evening. A glass of wine that cost a tenner was just “okay”, I asked for a bottle of cider but they were out of stock, asked for a coke instead but was given Diet Coke, the pasta I got was very bland, the light above our table was broken so we were sat in a dark spot, etc. Service was very friendly and happily paid his tip, but honestly not worth the £75 we paid, not by a long shot.

Very disappointed after trying this restaurant again for the first time since visiting shortly after it first opened in Leeds. Our waiter seemed to often get confused by our quite simple orders and kept mishearing us which became frustrating. This possibility wasn’t helped by the loud, inappropriate music playing. We had to wait about 45 minutes for our main courses which all arrived barely warm and were average at best. The lasagna was especially bad and tasted nothing like a real lasagna should. Being part Italian myself, Gino should be ashamed of having his name attached to a restaurant that serves such mediocre Italian food. Lastly the prices were very high and portions were small for what you pay for. We definitely won’t be back.

Fenzi was lovely and so accommodating of our needs, will definitely be returning.

Really nice restaurant, lots of room and good service. Our server Dimitri was fab and really attentive. The food was a bit of a mixed bag though. The starters and the garlic foccacia bread were lovely. But the main pasta dishes were a bit disappointing, quite bland and little flavour. I wasn't too impressed with the wine either. I would give it another chance, but perhaps would order not a pasta dish.

Thank you so much Kevin you looked after well!!

Delicious food and excellent service! Fenzi, our server, was so lovely & friendly, and gave great recommendations. He really made our evening, thankyou!!

Wonderful food, service and ambience. Our waiter Fenzi knew the menu extremely well and gave outstanding service. This restaurant consistently delivers well - I’ve eaten here a few times and every time has been excellent. Recommended.

I asked for a flower or something romantic for our anniversary, I believe Dimitri went the extra mile and crafted flowers for us! The food was perfect, I would definitely be back For two mains, a starter and a side came to £56 which for two people in an Italian restaurant is very reasonable

Dimitiri was our server tonight and he was very attentive. Food was great would recommend!!

It was realy good. We had a great time. Fenzi was a great guy and gave great service.

Booked for a friends birthday. They were 17 guests and we all received a complimentary drink on arrival. we all enjoyed our starters and main course, all delicious. The atmosphere was warm and cosy. We were served by Daniel who was very attentive and informative as was the rest of the staff. Nothing seemed to much trouble.

The food was delicious and the service from Fenzi was friendly and attentive

Fenzi was brillant, definitely recommend

Fenzi was Very polite and helpful with explaining the menu and provided a great service.

Sat down at ten past six and ordered at quarter past making clear we needed to be done by 7 as we had an appointment. To help with this we kept the order simple and ordered a plain starter and simple pasta dishes, and were assured we would be fine. Starter came quite quick, but at 6.45 after minimal attention I got up to ask the manager what was going on. Eventually got served at 6.50, food really hot and struggled to eat half in the time available. The place wasn't even busy. Food was OK, experience not. Difficult to recommend the place after that experience.

Had a fantastic time at Ginos waitress welcomed us with a fantastic manner friendly. The waiter who served us was very nice made us feel special. The waiter asked if it was a special occasion I said yes my birthday then he came back with a glass of bubbly for me and my partner. Very nice touch. Theme decor of the restaurant was amazing and relaxing. I ordered a cocktail which taste amazing and looked gorgeous too. The food came out hot and vey tasty. The service from the staff was great. Had no complaints at all everything was prefect. Enjoyed our evening at Ginos will definitely recommend this restaurant. Thankyou for a lovely evening.

Service was amazing Daniel was incredible. He had excellent drink recommendations. Food and drinks came out quickly. Would 100% return.

Fabulous meal and service, we couldn’t fault a thing! We stayed at the hotel and decided to try the restaurant, it certainly didn’t disappoint and the prices were really reasonable. We were well looked after by Fenzi, what a lovely guy and a credit to the restaurant. Would highly recommend!

Absolutely amazing. The staff made us feel very welcome, especially Daniele Fenzi he was so kind and friendly. The food was really good. Cocktails fantastic.
