Went in early, 7pm on a Friday night and it there were a few tables taken. By the time we left it was more or less full. Service was excellent and food good quality and reasonably priced.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Tavernaki Bistro with bunch of close friends and I must say, it was a culinary journey straight to the heart of Greece! The atmosphere is cozy, with a touch of Mediterranean charm. The decor, featuring traditional Greek elements. Every dish we ordered was a masterpiece! The ‘souvlaki’ was grilled to perfection, and The fresh ingredients and authentic flavors really stood out. We also tried the ‘calamari’ ‘greek salad’ ‘hummus’ ‘fasolada’ ‘tzatziki’ ‘kolokithokeftedes’ ‘chicken souvlaki all dishes were delicious. The service was impeccable and the waiters so polite. I highly recommend trying their ‘ouzo’ for a true taste of Greece. Tavernaki Bistro is a gem of a restaurant that delivers an authentic Greek dining experience. Whether you're a fan of Greek cuisine or trying it for the first time, this place is a must-visit.

The vibes here are great. Nice taverna music playing in the background and relatively busy given the time of day - makes you feel cheerful. I tried the seabass. I thought the seasoning was really nice. The rice was good, and the garlic-mayo was a nice touch. In general compared to the other stuff I spotted near the center, this was one of the better options, even though it doesn’t pop up on your map! A lot of the restaurants near the centre are chains.

A very nice Greek restaurant. The staff were friendly and food was really delicious. The lamb chop and the chips were yummy and well seasoned. Chicken and pork souvlaki was also well cooked. We really enjoyed our meal.

Definitely not greek, the atmosphere is greek along with the decor, but don't be fooled with the expensive menu portraying greek food, it truly isn't... shocking betrayal of passing off a food service as greek???

Very nice. Smaller place than we expected, which was lucky as we had booked a table. Sat down and looked after very well. Starters of melitzansalata and Loukaniko sausage. Enjoyed both, though the sausage was better. Moussaka for the missus and beef stifado for me. And a greek salad too. All very good. Beef was tender, flavoursome and a decent portion. Moussaka was excellent, and very hot. All the way till the end. Greek salad was good. Not a huge fan of peppers in my salad, but all good. No dessert, but a coffee. Very strong. Stronger than most greek coffees she's ever had. Drinkable. Excellent service and great food will make us go back again, for sure.

Very disappointed We met a family member who was visiting leeds and wanted an authentic Greek meal The meal was very disappointing The tzasiki was yogurt with a bit of something sprinkled onto it, no cucumber, no mint,no flavour this was served with burnt pitta bread The souvlaki was dry and was served with frozen chips with some seasoning on The hummus was a mixture of red pepper and hummus this wasn’t stated on the menu, it was left uneaten by a guest who doesn’t like peppers, so basically it cost £8 for a burnt pitta bread. Deserts were very pricey they had only 4 items to choose from and one of those was unavailable. The options for any dietary requirements were limited and non existent for the deserts And no children’s menu either. The staff weren’t friendly at all and we felt rushed out as they started clearing everything off the table and not even asked if we were finished with the drinks etc. I would not recommend this restaurant

Lovely intimate and well run local restaurant, with authentic scrummy Greek cuisine. As soon as we walked in through the door we knew we'd made the right decision to dine at Tavernaki. A warm welcome, which was complimented by an intimate atmosphere. The food was really tasty and decent sized portions, which was reasonably priced. Finally, the staff were friendly and attentive. When we're back in Leeds we will be back! Thank you.

I contacted them in advance about my food allergies and intolerances, they assured me that it wouldn't be a problem. On the evening of the dinner all staff new about my dietary requirements and they prepared me a delicious and safe meal! Also, they serve wine from Greece which I find a nice plus for a Greek restaurant. Thank you again for the nice food and service. We had a great evening.

Always welcome in the shop and the staff are polite and very happy to see you. Don't leave you sat there in silence they have a fun conversation with you. The food is very nice indeed and cooked perfectly. They do nice little touches like writing the number of the dish on the box so you don't get the wrong meal with your rice or chips. The only thing I wish they would change (along with most Chinese Takeaway) is to allow you to use card as not always have cash or a working bank machine nearby but it's a small niggle and I now make sure I always have cash in my wallet 😎
