Zam Zam's is something of a Leeds institution. It has been situated on the same street for years, but used to be across the road, when it was invariably full of fighting drunks. Now there's a takeaway part, and a restaurant part, if you can call it that. Most people only come here when they're drunk, but it is in fact open during the day. It's not really a restaurant, it's a bit of a dump, but they're friendly enough. It used to be cheap too, but I was shocked by the prices the last time I was here. Not expensive, but dear for what it is. I've always found the curries to be poor to mediocre, and the falafel dishes mediocre. The toilets are filthy, and best avoided.

Staff was very friendly, food was so delicious . It wasn’t expensive either. You can take out or sit inside and enjoy. Will visit again.

I alway say trust a taxi driver. They know where the best places to eat are. My new rule NEVER TRUST A TAXI DRIVER. I asked my man for a great Indian for a curry and he says ‘ yeah I know the best place in leeds’ . Note: he didn’t know the best place in Leeds. So he drops me off at swell dodgy place . Typical kebab/pizza/burger/curry place . By now I feel bad so say ok I’ll go in and eat. Go in , nobody there just a really dodgy menu. I look outside taxi looks like it’s gone so I think I’ll do a runner . As I step outside , taxi man is like ‘where are you going’ i balls it out and say’theres nobody in dude’ he says ‘ yeah they’re there ‘ and takes me in introducing me to the man so I have to order food. Taxi man then goes upstairs (which makes me think he’s pals with the restaurant) . I get my order and taxi man takes me to hotel . The food ! The foods was bloody atrocious. Keama rice was dripping, madras was awful. I literally ate five spoons. Luckily I woke up and my back passage was in tact but 24 hours later I had a little Trump and thought that’s not good ! Did a penguin walk to the bathroom and sweet Jesus I swear down I just melted through my grinner ! Avoid this hell hole at all costs !

Absolutely shocking food quality and service. On arrival 2 cooks was having a heated debate which made made me feel uncomfortable. Asked for itemised receipt once I had paid as I was well aware I had been overcharged from the menu price. Think he thought I was drunk until I questioned the amount. Gave me back the overpayment in cash. Chicken balti was dry and tasted of nothing. Mushroom bajis pre fried and then fried again was just fat and batter mushroom had disappeared. Garlic Naan bread was just dry with no hint of garlic butter or garlic flavour as with previous comments dry and had holes in... was chewwy beyond belief. For the price your paying I would stay well away from here and just order from your local takeaway for delivery. No wonder the restaurant side of the business (eat in) is always dead, need to address food quality and service.

Ordered food through Uber Eats. Said 5-30 mins to delivery. I live 15 minutes away by car from the restaurant. I called the restaurant after the delivery was 20 minutes late. They said they will get in contact with the delivery driver to find out where he is and call back. 15 minutes later no call back. I tried calling & no answer. 20 calls later, it is now 3 hours late and my calls are being ignored. I cannot cancel on the app either as it's still saying delivery on the way. Ridiculous! They need to stop with delivery food if they cannot fulfil orders. My partner was so annoyed he drove to the restaurant, they tried to fob him off about the order then closed the restaurant. Extremely unhappy customers & will be complaining on every platform & will be expecting compensation. I've never had such a bad service. DO NOT ORDER FROM HERE!

The answer is NO! Common sense does not exist in this awful establishment. Honestly... After careful... careful examination..... I have realised I have never met anyone with so little brain cells. After arguing with me about already taking my burger which was still behind the counter we had to bring the burger back because it had mayo on it and we ordered without mayo. This is what got me.... He scraped the mayo off and refused to make another until his boss shouted at him. The guy with the airpods needs to stop acting like he is the el chappo of Leeds and invest in some manners could probably benefit from some customer service lessons. Thank you for your awful service Kind regards Common sense

The order arrived about an hour late and all the food was cold and absolutely dishusting. Chips too hard to eat and the pizza was completely inedible. It had barely any topping on and was rock solid. Would never go to this place again.

From the minute I walked in, I was treated like a king. The service was amazing, aswell as this I was greeted by wonderfully mannered staff. The prices were as cheap as chips( if you pardon the pun).

So we’ve eaten at zam zam a few times this time we thought we would order a takeout. The food was delicious and warm. Really good sized portion the meat balti is beautifully cooked with the right amount of spice bursting with flavours. Everything was wrapped nicely so the food was warm. The delivery driver was polite and courteous and the restaurant called me after to check if everything was okay. They even gave two cokes on the house! Very impressed with this level of service in these times. Must try!!

Pedí comida desde aquí, ya que estaba a una caminata rápida de nuestro hotel, la recogí y regresé al hotel. La comida estaba fría y completamente equivocada. Pedí una envoltura de donante sin ensalada y salsa de tomate y lo que obtuvimos fue una envoltura de donante con ensalada y mayonesa. Y pedí un korma de pollo y no se parecía a nada de lo que había visto antes y ¡estaba todo mal! Tampoco había arroz incluido para tener que pagar más por el arroz y a las 8 ya estaba un poco caro, ¡y en general no estaba nada contento! El pan naan también era como cemento :)

Situado en el centro de la ciudad en la calle Briggate, hay 2 zam zams uno al lado del otro. Uno es de comida rápida para llevar y el otro es un restaurante. Fuimos al restaurante.

He estado usando esta comida para llevar / comer en el restaurante durante años, todavía está en manos de los propietarios originales. Un tipo mejor que nunca conocerás. Ignore el hecho de que el lugar se ve un poco en mal estado, la comida y el servicio son geniales. Siempre nos saludan de manera cálida y amistosa, aunque normalmente estoy borracho (ubicación en el centro de la ciudad)La comida es sabrosa y siempre se sirve caliente y en buen tiempo, el personal es excelente y siempre intentará hacer lo mejor para usted. Entonces, si estás en Leeds bebiendo y divirtiéndote y quieres algo de buena comida del sur de Asia, deberías probar Zam zams, él no ha estado operando durante casi 30 años por suerte, se trata de trabajo duro, buena comida y un ambiente agradable y acogedor.

No somos de Leeds, pero fuimos al teatro y sentíamos hambre. Como no habíamos reservado un restaurante y nos faltó un poco de tiempo, decidimos entrar aquí para un bocado rápido. Como nos empujaron a tiempo pedimos una pizza y papas fritas y, honestamente, esta fue la mejor pizza que hemos tenido en mucho tiempo, muy sabrosa y la base era hermosa. Vimos algunos de los otros platos que se sacaron y se veían tan apetitosos. Definitivamente buscaré este lugar cuando volvamos a Leeds y haremos más del menú. El chico detrás del mostrador fue de gran ayuda y el chef también salió, gente encantadora.

No habría escrito esto si el propietario no hubiera sido tan mezquino.La calificación de higiene es de 3 estrellas pero anuncian 5 estrellas. Les mencioné esto y nos dijeron que nos fuéramos.El servicio es muy malo. Tuvimos que pedir cubiertos y solo nos dieron cucharas.Una vez que nos fuimos, nos dijeron que nuestra mesa estaba sucia y nos dijeron que regresáramos y la limpiáramos. Tenía arroz y popadoms. Algo que esperarías de una comida como esta.Hacernos volver y limpiar una mesa casi vacía era asqueroso. Pequeño personal y comida normal, como verá en mi foto.Evitar.

Fuimos a la hora del almuerzo del sábado tomando un descanso de las compras. Teníamos poppadoms que eran un poco grasientos y Massala de pescado. El pescado estaba crujiente y sabroso. Para las principales teníamos cordero Balti que era picante y sabroso. También teníamos una jarra de Mango Lasso que estaba delicioso. En general, este no es un restaurante elegante con camareros con corbata de lazo, pero tiene una excelente relación calidad-precio y la comida es muy buena. Estaremos visitando de nuevo pronto.

Fui a almorzar y pedí kabab y papas fritas con lata de coca.Primero vino un plato de ensalada, luego vino mi donner y papas fritas. El donner estaba congelado como si viniera de un refrigerador. Al quejarse de que la comida está congelada, intentaron contarme una historia que el donner se enfrió mientras las papas fritas estaban fritas. También se llevaron la ensaladera. Todavía esperando mi donner y mis papas, mi lata de coca. Puedo ver a los dos chicos que hablan chit y cómo engañan a los clientes que pagan por la rotura de vidrios.Donner y los chips se recalentaron en el microondas, los chips se volvieron gomososNo me dieron cubiertos, esperaban que comiera con mis manos.Tuve que molestarlos por lata de coca cola y salsa de chile. Luego me cobraron por un gran donner kabab cuando pedí medio.Muy poco profesional, no les apasiona dar buena comida o servicio

Después de una noche de fiesta el sábado 18 de agosto, mi hijo y yo fuimos a Zam zams a cenar para terminar la noche. Pedí shami kebabs y un biryani de pollo y mi hijo un pollo madras. Los shami kebabs fueron quemados y nunca en mi vida Tuve un biryani que estaba lleno de tallos de coliflor y no mucho más. El curry de mi hijo solo estaba lleno de tomates. He estado yendo a Zam zams por más de 20 años impares y cuando me quejé, ambos dejamos las comidas y dijimos No estoy pagando por eso, todo lo que el dueño podría decir es si te hace sentir mejor, no lo lamento, la comida fue terrible, así que después de todos los años que he estado yendo a Zam zams ahora parece que están atendiendo a personas que están demasiado borracho para notar

We have eaten here a few times in the past and they kind of just get away with it. The worst thing about this place is the hygiene!!! They say you can judge a place by its toilets and the toilets in this place are disgusting BEYOND WORDS!! This review will never change anything because their business is generally from late night drinkers, who probably don't even remember going there!! The food this time was truly awful, the place was full of drunks shouting and racially insulting the staff, but the staff didn't seem to be bothered. The dips looked like they had been on other tables before we got them, with crusty rings around the inside of the small stainless bowls. The starters were laced with dirty oil and the main courses too. We kind of picked at our food and left, vowing never to set foot in the place ever again under any circumstances. In the cold light of day I feel physically sick at the thought of the place and how it's got 5 star rating on the scores on the doors app is absolutely beyond comprehension. Something isn't right there and that's a certainty. If anyone is reading this, take my advice and starve before you ever think about even so much walking past the front door!! It should be closed down and boarded up, or at least have a fumigation order placed on it.

Ok, so there's quite a lot of not-so-great reviews on here. I would wager that most of them are written around visits during the hours of booze-fuelled darkness. I visited with work colleagues for lunch. If you want shiny new decor and seats that aren't fastened to the floor - then go to one of the nearby well-known Asian food chains. For me this was well cooked food, at a good price and in plentiful portions. Between the three of us, my two mates had a standard curry each and i - quite unusually - selected the Special Kebab which was way too much food for one man to put away. It came colourful and plentiful - my colleagues quite clearly had food jealousy when mine turned up after theirs ordinary looking dishes. It was a meat-fest served on a naan AND with a bowl of fried chips. halfway through the various types of meat it became clear that the carbs weren't going to get eaten. I've enclosed a picture - it could easily feed two - unless you have an unusually large appetite. Given that the chips were fried and the naan was a 'good' size i reckon it was a 2000 calorie meal. My friends however, remarked that their dishes were nice too - not swimming in grease like some curries you come across.In summary - i'd go again for a no-frills meal.

But their food is bang on! What zam zams has is old school cook who can rustle up a good madras, tikka masala or a curry in general. I have gone there for years and never had a bad curry. Yes it is basic and a bit grubby but if you want fantastic décor and posh waiters then you will pay double the price. Also their toilets are downstairs with a nightmare of a staircase, so if your drunk be careful!!!

Would not recommend eating here. Went in after a night out and ordered two large donner meat and chips with salad. The salad was dry and had probably been sat there for the past couple of days. There was mould on the side of their counter which does not look particularly great for customers. Decided to throw the food away after the meat and chips were cold despite the chips being "fresh"

One of the worst dining experiences I've ever had. Cold, soggy popadoms. I could barely find the 'meat' in my dopiaza through the absurd amount of fat and, it was so spicy it may as well have been a vindaloo. I was hoping the putrid looking, sweaty, garlic naan that was dumped on the table was going to taste better than it looked - unfortunately not, it didn't even resemble bread. I tried all 3 dishes and could only brave one bite of each. Truly disgusting. The staff may be friendly but don't be fooled, they cannot cook or serve food.

I went in here with a friend after a Street Festival. We'd been out since mid afternoon & were a little the worse for wear.That being said, this was one of the best curries I've had since I moved to Leeds (& I used to live in the West Mids). The staff were really friendly & there were a few of us in, even though by this point it must've been around 2am.The quality of the meat was good & they hadn't skimped on anything, even though it was stupid o'clock in the morning & they could probably gotten away with it.The prices were reasonable & one of the servers even came outside whilst I was waiting on my taxi & said I could wait inside as it was raining.Lovely.

Having spent years walking past here the other week I had a craving for a curry at lunchtime and thought why not give it a go. I was very pleased I did, I have now returned of an evening and on both occasions the food was tasty, well cooked and served piping hot. It is a very basic formica café, the staff don't make small talk, there is no alcohol and the other diners will probably be male and Asian if there are very. However, the cooking is real home cooking of the type I have experienced in India and at the houses of Pakistani friends. I would recommend the byriani, bhuna and masala dishes. The price is very reasonable with nan, chapattis or rice included in the price of a curry.

Went at about 22:30 on a Saturday, we had seekh kebabs and mixed starter (samosa, shami kebab, onion bhaji and mushroom pakora) and for mains, chicken madras and chicken vindaloo (pilau rice, naan and chapatis). Every bit of the meal was delicious, freshly cooked and generously portioned. The waiter was really friendly and as we were about to leave, called a taxi for us. My wife says they have always done this as she used to go there when she was younger. The chef popped through to check we enjoyed the food and stood chatting. Its a shame they are not away from the rest of the takeaways as the food and service is so good they could easily cut it as a normal restaurant hence 'wasted on the wasted'

Exactly the same comments as the reviewer who had an ill friend. I can honestly say it is the worst food I have had in a long time.

Visited for a late night "snack" last night, asked a taxi driver for a recommendation an he dropped us off here. The food was disgusting the place looks like something out of the 1970's and my friend who actually tried the food has been ill all day. No staff to complain to had to approach the kitchen myself and yell. When someone did come he told us we should of complained straight away!! Refused to pay but he insisted we pay £10! Honestly the worse food I have ever come across

This is like going back in time for me. Very basic inside but the food is great. Always try to have something here if we're in Leeds.

ZAM ZAM’s New Briggate, LeedsHaving squared the block from the Vicar Lane Travelodge, looking for an Indian carry out, it was with some trepidation that I entered Zam Zam's. Why 'trepidation'? Because the building frontage of 2 rooms (one kitchen/take-away counter, the other a functional, soul-less but clean dining area - a bit like a works canteen) is not at all attractive. Nevertheless, the price was right and my appetite, ravenous. A chat with the 'chef' led me to order a chicken madras + 3 chapatis. Whilst watching him prepare the meal I decided to eat-in.Up came a plate FULL of seriously good food: subtly flavoured, visually appealing, and smelling divine - and an un-asked for jug of water. I've lived and travelled in the Far East and on the Indian sub-continent over a number of years and the food here compared very well with the street food I'd eaten abroad.The quality of the food more than compensated for the austere, but clean (I noted Zam Zam's displayed a four star food hygiene rating from the City Council) dining surrounds And, at £5.50, outstanding value. I even went back to the order counter to leave a tip - and me a Yorkshireman!!Next time I'm in Leeds I'll definitely be heading back here.Thanks, Guys.

parmo was massive but the cheese on it was awful it looked like plastic cheese taste wasn't nice at all and the toppings on pizza slid off when picked up a piece don't think we'll order again

This kebab shop is closed because of dry bad hygiene when inspectors from Leeds council inspected it .
