Lala's Restaurant Wakefield in Wakefield

Amazing food, great staff & wonderful aesthetic. Will definitely be visiting again!

Ordered a takeaway off their app. Food was fast really well priced and big portions. I just wasn’t keen on the peila rice but rest was brilliant.

Went a while back as a birthday treat....food was definately good except the salad was depressingly poor, it wasnt flavoured with anything and they couldn't even be bothered to chop the tomatoes and i know for a fact what asians can do with salad can be exceptional...not at lalas though.. my main contention though was not the salad but the menu and there is a discounted menu on offer which was not pointed out at all in fact i got the impression that the waitress was instucted to do everything ahe could to hide the fact. And yes its advertised in a small black notice on the wall and the menu is also equally dismissable in size...if you dine there regularly you would no doubt be aware of its existence after a couple of visits but i do not and was not and by the time i realised half way through the meal it was too late to take advantage of the excellent discounts available. Also once upon a time it was standard and still is in some restaurants especially in bradford where they always excel imo to place a water jug and glasses at every setting and popadoms and pickles were a free thing not a horrificly priced starter option as i found at lalas...the meals were delicious however i cant deny that the chef knew his job...but the waitress was less than friendly and because of the other points mentioned i would not go back for a repeat visit nor recommend as i have experienced far superior restaurants in wakefield. Not a main concern but our seating area was right next to a walkway and we could not get comfortable due to being constantly passed and even having to move my chair or be touched by passing waiters and customers too many times to relax i did ask if we could move to a quieter area as there were plenty of unused corners but we were not allowed to move...so yeah not for me this place.. oh and the music was awful pop music and way too loud...i love asian music and always find it enhances the experience of eating asian style...you should promote your own musical offerings imo...when in rome and all that, music makes such a huge difference to the atmosphere...lalas is not for me i love all asian food and the culture but couldnt get it here

Fantastic venue. Food and service superb. Our server, Serge was amazing, setting the standards for everyone else to match. I really can't praise him enough 10 out of 10. Can't wait to visit again. Outstanding.

Great deal on the set menu. So. Much food we always take home a goodie bag! Great food and service. A big shout out to the coolest dude Seerje who looked after us tonight. What a knowledgeable and lovely human

10/10 recommend guys ,service is amazing and so is the food

First time at Lalas definitely not the last. Absolutely good food. Service was great atmosphere as well. Staff were very friendly to us. Had a great time. Will definitely come back.

Good food and a large menu. There is a reasonably prices early bird offer which is great.

Best place for pakistani food , excellent service and delicious food .

Service is another highlight—attentive without being intrusive, and always ready with a smile or helpful suggestion. Prices are reasonable for the quality, making it a solid choice for both weeknight meals and weekend gatherings. All in all, Lala’s is one of those rare finds that makes you want to come back again and again. Great food, great service, and a welcoming vibe—what more could you ask for?

VERY DISSAPOINTING CURRY DISH SWIMMING IN OIL KORMA LIKE IT HAD A BAG OF SUGAR COOKED IN IT. THE LARGE NAN BREAD WAS JUST LIKE A LARGE CRISP. A WASTE OF MONEY. WOULD DEFINATLY NOT RETURN

On sat 5th April 2025, I went to Lala's with my big sister, had mix kebab, was very nice, dish I had chicken tikka massala, was bit spicy, but very tasty, service was quick, staff were nice, had great time with my Sister, I would recommend Lala's wakefield to anyone, Thanks Abid

Beautiful curry. Sat in and Takeaway. There curry’s have always been on the spicy side. I asked for my curry mild, and it came even more spicy. Unfortunately, will not be ordering again.

Ali is a top host and whenever I am in Wakefield I head to La LA’s The food , service and general atmosphere is fantastic

Had a fantastic time. The food was fantastic and the service was outstanding, Sarje was very friendly and took very good care of us. We would go back for the service.

Absolutely beautiful food, amazing atmosphere and amazing people. Cant fault the place at all.

Amazing place. Gorgeous food and worth everything, been coming years and love the place.

Service and staff excellent as always

Birthday meal out. Restaurant had just opened, so was quiet. Ordered Tarka Dal, Karahi Ghosht (desi style), garlic naan. Pilau. All food excellent, as always. Service, Abdul, did a great job, really attentive and considerate. A good experience as always, thanks.

We eat here every couple of weeks. Lovely staff, lovely food. Never had any issues. The complementary chocolates/Bailey's at the end of our meal are a smashing bonus.

New to Wakefield. Just found this place. It's second to none. Good food, excellent Staff and affordable.

Ordered food at 7.30pm this evening and the time is 9pm. Still no delivery and it was supposed to arrive 40 minutes ago So bad and no one answers the phone either. Lala's is rubbish with sending food out

Set meal was awesome. Biryani was delicious. Huge portions caught me by surprise. For a set meal the naan was huge! . Had to take half home for tea next day.

Friendly quick service staff very nice, food absolutely amazing as always

Great service. Delicious food.

Very nice food, amazing staff, very good with kids

1st time here, one of the best Indian restaurants i v le been in, Awesome food, highly recommend

Very nice first visit to Lala’s. Abdul was a great waiter. Very attentive and genuinely welcoming.

Disappointed with food. Looked nice but no flavour

We stopped going here a few years ago as we felt it had gone downhill a bit. Decided to give it another try and glad we did. Food was lovely, hot and tasty. Amazing value with the 5 course for £15.95 We all really enjoyed it. Will definitely be back.

I went to Lala's 17, 02, 25 with my friend, we each had 5course meal, staff, service, food was 10/10, had great time, great atmosphere, nice music, staff was very friendly, I recommend to anyone, will definitely come again.

Went to lalas for Valentine’s Day had an amazing time staff where outstanding and food was lovely will be back and will be recommending to friends and family!!!!

This place makes fantasy come true! A wonderful experience from the second you walk in. Professional, friendly and welcoming staff, beautiful calming and peaceful atmosphere with mouth watering aromas all round. Then after you have taken in all the beauty around, the tastiest palate pleasing food is presented in fabulous etiquette to finalise a magnificent experience. We took a 2 hour round trip to come here on Valentine’s Day… and it was worth it!

Excellent curry, well presented and very tasty, polite staff too

Our first visit to LaLa’s will not be our last. Attentive staff and excellent food. Higher praise could not be given, the Indian restaurant is the best I’ve ever been to. We had the early bird menu and highly recommend.

I had an amazing experience at Lala’s Restaurant! The food was absolutely delicious, full of authentic flavors, and beautifully presented. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, with a great ambiance that made the dining experience even more enjoyable. The staff was friendly, attentive, and provided excellent service. I highly recommend Lala’s for anyone looking for top-quality food in a fantastic environment!

Went there for a work Christmas Dinner (as well as 3 leaving dos in one). Main course was okay, if a little bland but loved the starter (we had a set menu).

The original Lala on George street was better. I’m not a big fan of this location. Food taste is okay but the atmosphere wasn’t great

Absolutely beautiful food. Massive food portions all cooked beautifully. Staff were very attentive and on hand anytime you needed anything. cannot fault the quality or the price

Gorgeous food, brilliant service and really lovely staff. We get takeaway and dine in aswell. Both are always 10/10

Excellent food and service and value for money

Outstanding. Not been here for a while. Had the meal deal and two drinks for less than £50. Highly recommend.

The service was fabulous from the moment we entered right through to the end if the meal. Excellent 5 course menu for around £15 with good choices and tastes.. Amazing value. Really enjoyed our evening amd the staff sang as they brought out daughters birthday cake. Excellent.

4 of us had a Christmas day meal at 3pm. The food was lovely the service was excellent and the atmosphere was very good. I highly recommend this restaurant. Thank you

Wow! Just had a delivery from here via FOODHUB and I'm not joking - I opened the door to my food on the freezing floor and the driver sat in the car, outside the gate with a face like a smacked fanny 🤣 not being funny or owt but if it was a tip you were after, you should've handed me my food. I had a £2 coin in my hand for you 🤣 The food is always beautiful. Can never complain but that was the weirdest delivery ever 🤣

Wouldn’t recommend, all the staff are about 16-17 years old and have no basic skills. I was given a smashed glass, drinks were forgotten or spilt and the staff were rude. Food was just ok really, there were loads of bones in my chicken tikka masala. Honestly just nothing to rave about at all, probably one of the most mediocre curries I’ve ever had.

As soon as we walked in the place seemed very nice, there were 3 of us, we ordered the food, and they brought us the wrong Food out, later they changed it to the right things, staff didn't seem very happy, service was very poor as we got asked for everything, once we paid and got up to leave. The food is very well priced, the food itself was ok, but the lamb had a little oil in it. I can get similar food from a local takeaway. I wouldn't recommend this place.

Ordered a takeaway took over 2 hours to be delivered when it arrived it was clap cold put it straight in the bin very over priced I can’t emphasise enough do not use this restaurant absolutely awful .

I was in hotel in Wakefield for the night and ordered a takeaway from Uber Eats. Lala’s menu looked really nice so I ordered. Delivered in half an hour and still nice and hot. Chicken tikka stater was really nice with the fried onions and salad. My main was a chicken and mince batli. It was amazing, so much meat. Mopped up with a couple of chapati’s. Very nice and would recommend to anyone starting in Waky

Hey it was good , 👍🏻 nice to be open late when everywhere else is shut for the night , cheers 🍻

Ordered for collection and felt the guy on the phone was a little rude. Arrived to collect the food and probably met the phone guy and he was indeed rude! The girl who didn't actually serve me was the only polite one who recognised that he was rude so thanked me for my order and said enjoy your meal. Just that poor service puts me off ordering again. The food was poor. I got a mixed grill which wasn't great and the chicken seemed undercooked. The lamb chops were mainly bone and burnt grizzle but the chicken chunks and kebab were OK. The chips were dry and the kids meal I got was like cheap frozen nuggets which were dry and didn't get eaten. I'd expect better at a takeaway but this is a restaurant!

Moved away from Wakefield a few years ago now and this is one place I do miss. Back in Wakefield for a birthday bash and the guys had never had chicken liver before and were blown away how nice it was. Service is top drawer too, with the manager always on hand and clearly has it all in control. Will be back but not as often as I would like!

A policeman recommended this restaurant as I was visiting for first time. Not disappointed. Fairly quiet at first but more customers came later. Waj the manager made me welcome. Young lady served me and smiled throughout. £15.99 for popadums starter main course coffee and mints. Ordered a Nan as an extra. It came the size of a large pizza. All the food was fantastic. Cobra was ice cold. Complimentary Baileys too. I saw some negative reviews when I checked on line. Must have been a bad night. Would certainly come again if ever in Wakefield again. Great restaurant. Well done Waj and your team keep smiling.

Such a great restaurant. Staff are wonderful and great building. Great food and value for money. 100% will go again.

Went on Friday night for a work event. The food was excellent and the staff did brilliantly well to cope with 25 of us.

Brilliant food. Don’ order the Naan unless you’re *very* hungry!!!

Popular place. Starters were generous and delicious. Chicken dhansak & seafood balti were ok but not best in town, and staff were too keen to push everyone to have the set menu, which is good value if you are all hungry enough.

The food was amazing. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Brilliant service. Would definitely go again.

Super place. Atmosphere was great, food was excellent. Service was great. Had a great time. From walking through the door to leaving, it was top notch. Menu has something for everyone whatever your tastes. Pricing is good too. Would definitely recommend a visit.

Gotta Admit Lalas Is Tbe Best Place For Food And Only The Best Of Hospitality Many Thanks Too Juniour For Looking Afuer The Whe Table,,Many Thanks Till Next Time!!!!!

Food was fantastic,as we're the staff , can see why they win the awards

Great service and value for money. All staff were very polite and couldn’t do enough for us.

Swera was a great servicer and the food was excellent.

swera was an amazing waitress,food was good

Swera was very attentive and it's genuinely the best service we've had all year anywhere. Lovely food, atmosphere too.

I recently dined at LaLa's in Wakefield and had a great experience. The food was delicious, with a great variety of flavours and beautifully presented dishes. The restaurant had a warm and modern atmosphere. We had excellent service from Swera. She was friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable, making us feel genuinely welcome and well looked after. We’ll definitely be returning!

Absolutely amazing food and staff are so welcoming, I can’t believe when you see poor reviews we have never had any problems at all and always very nice

Me, my mother in law and my 3 children went out to eat tonight and the service in this place is fantastic my 9 month old decided to have a screaming temper tantrum of course and threw my food onto the floor that was just sat down and these guys immediately replaced what she had thrown, and the gentleman serving our table was the most polite, kind and all around amazing person he offered to calm and have my daughter so that I could eat! And the food itself is fantastic! Will definitely be coming back but maybe child free next time😂 thank you so so much to the guy in these pictures! (He needs a raise) X

I absolutely love it here! The food is delicious and the portion sizes are excellent. The service is brilliant too. Our server Swera was impeccable tonight, I haven’t had service that good in a long, long time.

Been to Lala’s a few times for work birthday celebrations. The staff are always friendly. The food is consistently good, a large menu, so you can always try something different.

We ordered a takeaway through just eat. Nothing out of the ordinary, meat biryani and a garlic naan. It asked if we wanted curry sauce or raita, whenever I have bought a biryani inn the past, it just says a sauce. I thought this was an extra sauce so ordered raita. It arrived. What a disappointment, very dry rice and mutton. The ‘raita’ did nothing for it, I wasn’t enjoying it so thought I’d fill up on naan bread. It was cold and greasy, I have eaten at Lalas many times but will never bother with a take away. I’ll buy a meal deal from Asda.

Never tried this place before.. probably due to the fact we went to the one at Batley a long time ago which was terrible! The difference between the two is like night & day! Ok it was quiet but the service was superb. Food fantastic, couldn’t fault one thing 👌🏼

Staff are so friendly and go above and beyond. Food is incredible!

Fantastic service. Abdu and his colleagues was responsive and attentive throughout. And great with my daughter. Food was tasty, good portion sizes. Would recommend and defintely will be back.

The food is mediocre. You can't trust their labeling of allergens. Not many vegan options. They tried to scam us out of £200, and made us wait around 20 minutes while we went through the bill item by item, having been very pushy for us to just pay and leave without checking.

Great service .. Amazing food …

Fantastic service, quick and friendly. The food was delicious and the biggest naan bread you’ve ever seen!

The best Nan bread I’ve ever had 😀

What a great evening. Flew from Oz to havegreat meal. I am a bigger guy, liking my food. But I could not eat a full portion with a garlic bread. Great place and the staff were awesome too. Thanks guys. 🇦🇺

Best Indian restaurant in Wakefield, cannot recommend enough, friendly staff and great food. A must visit in Wakey.

Perfect service from everyone, food spot on. 10/10 everything

Absolutely gorgeous meal and amazing service! Swera was so lovely!

Food was outstanding, I was so pleased with the service I received from the staff. Great service, excellent experience ! Recommended to everyone! Dishes I tried "Chicken Bhuna, Fish Badalti and Lala's special dishes were amazing. Love to visit again !

We really loved dining at lalaswakefield. From the moment we arrived until we left, everything was very well handled. I appreciate the team for putting together such a good experience. Thank you lalas

The waiter spilled soft drinks on my mother and instead of apology the manger said “accident happens “ that attitude was enough to put me off it ruined the whole experience also service was so poor and slow food was not good when we asked for switch the music off they refused and refused to offer us a place to pray Very bad experience it ruined my day I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone

I would like to thank Lalas Wakefield for the wonderful hospitality and delicious food which made the ceremony worth enjoyable. I must mention that all the arrangements were done perfectly and thanks to manager and your professional staff.

Had a great meal tonight. Enjoyed everything I had. The service was excellent, very friendly and helpful. Large portions too! Many thanks x

Absolutely amazing food and service. Averyhting was authentic food and drinks.

Absolutely loved our visit to lalas.food was amazing,staff were fabulous,attentive and friendley.will definately be back soon.

Great food. Love the mixed starter. Mainly have take out

I am normally a madras man, but I went with the owners recommendation and it was a beautiful meal, not too hot and very tasty. Perfect meal, thank you 😊

Excellent service and great food. Abdul really looked after us.

Outstanding food and service! They even offer you a doggy bag if you can't eat everything! The portions are huge and so delicious ! Will definitely be returning!

Hamad was a great waiter and service was amazing!

Taste is awesome. Humble staff.

This is the worst take away we have ever had I will never order from them again

Been here before and enjoyed the food , this time the starters were really nice but the main was far too salty and the chicken tasted like it had been reheated , being really dry. Won't be returning , there are far better indian restaurants nearby.

This was the worst meal I have had from Lala's, cold chips, watery Veg Makhani, I ordered 2 Makhani so I could have one another night, wasted money! One Makhani was wrapped in foil the other wasn't, why?

We recently hosted a party for 30 people at Lala's Restaurant, and it was an unforgettable experience! From the moment we walked in, the warm and inviting ambiance set the perfect tone for our celebration. The staff was exceptionally attentive and made sure every detail was taken care of. They went above and beyond to accommodate our large group with grace and efficiency, ensuring that everyone felt welcome and comfortable. Now, let's talk about the food - it was simply divine! Every dish v., a burst of authentic Indian flavors, beautifully presented and perfectly spiced. From the delectable starters to the sumptuous main courses and the delightful desserts, each bite was a culinary delight. The variety of dishes catered to all palates, including those who preferred milder options and those who enjoyed a bit of heat. Special mention to the butter chicken and the biryani, which were crowd favorites! The naans were freshly baked and complemented the rich curries perfectly. The attention to detail in the food preparation truly showcased the chef's expertise and passion for Indian cuisine. Our guests couldn't stop raving about the wonderful time they had. The combination of excellent service, mouth-watering food, and a vibrant atmosphere made our party at Lala's a tremendous success. We highly recommend Lala's for any gathering, big or small. It's a gem of a restaurant that delivers an exceptional dining experience. We will definitely be returning soon!

Service The service at Lala’s is truly remarkable. Hrishi and Saeed, our waiters, were friendly, welcoming, and highly attentive, promptly addressing all our needs. From the moment we entered, we experienced genuine hospitality. Hrishi and Saeed were well-versed in the menu and offered excellent suggestions, ensuring a seamless dining experience. Management Lala’s is managed with impressive efficiency and professionalism. Manager is clearly committed to upholding high standards, as demonstrated by the smooth coordination of our large group event. He (manager) checked in with us several times throughout the evening to make sure everything met our expectations. His proactive approach and attention to detail greatly enhanced our experience. Food The food at Lala’s is exceptional. Each dish bursts with authentic Indian flavors, crafted with fresh ingredients and a perfect blend of spices. The Lamb Rogan Josh was a hit, tender and richly flavored, while the Lala Special Balti impressed with its complex, aromatic spice mix and succulent meat. The Peshwari Naan was soft, perfectly baked, and had a delightful sweet filling. Every dish was outstanding, making the meal memorable. Overall Experience Lala’s excels in every area – from the outstanding service provided by Hrishi and Saeed, to the professional management by Manager, and the exquisite food. Whether for a large gathering or a cozy dinner, this restaurant offers a top-tier dining experience that leaves a lasting impression.
