The best restaurants serving Mediterranean food in City and Hunslet Leeds Yorkshire and The Humber

We went with high hopes after reading the reviews. Unfortunately the food is not good enough quality for what they are charging. The Patatas Bravas were overcooked and had a small amount of spicy sauce on top. The aubergine frittas were very oily and too deep fried, very hard. The gambas arrived under cooked, we left them to cook in the hot dish, and not enough garlic at all, only a few slithers. Meatballs were average, no taste Calamari were OK, I asked to some more alioli and was charged for it! The saviour was the steak, not a huge portion but was good quality meat and cooked as we had requested. The atmosphere felt authentic of a small back street tapas in Spain. Hence the 3 stars. We would not return or recommend on the basis or the quality of the ingredients used.

Wonderful restaurant. I have certain things I can not eat like garlic and a lot of things had garlic in, so they made special tapas just for me that tasted amazing. The waitress was the best service I have ever had since beng diagnosed with Chrohns Disease 10 years ago.

Having been to Ambiente over 10 times, I have never been let down. The food is excellent, the service is great, the staff are extremely nice and knowledgeable. I took my Parents there yesterday for my birthday and they go to Spain a lot and were blown away with how authentic and nice the food was. We also got 20% discount for my birthday and 50% off the desserts because they had a change over of chefs and it took a little longer. Not that we noticed! Keep up the great work!

A mate of mine who lives in Leeds recommended this place... OMFG... recommendation of the century! Had a pitta with falafel, hummus, extra aubergine and pickles. Everything top drawer!! Shame it’s so messy or I’d be taking some back on the train home for the family

After 20 years of driving past and making a mental note to visit, I finally got to try this place out for a lazy weekend lunch, and I'm delighted to have done so. It's a very friendly and cosy cafe, with an exotic menu that still manages to make you feel comfortable, and a little excited for what's going to arrive at your table. There are a few familiar options as well, so you or your group can decide how far to let your tastebuds wander. The decor is lovely, think Kendells bistro pitched up in the middle East, and the staff were on point with service as well as greetings. The food, importantly, was also excellently rated by all of us and it won't be anything like 20 years before we're back again!

A mi novio y a mí nos encanta venir a comer algo rápido para almorzar. El servicio es rápido, personal amable y comida deliciosa. Las envolturas de shawarma son enormes y absolutamente deliciosas: una ganga para 3. 50! Las opciones de ensalada también son muy sabrosas. Lo recomiendo encarecidamente para un almuerzo rápido barato y alegre pero delicioso y auténtico!

Second visit to this restaurant and really enjoyed it. Quite a big range of food from many different countries. What we had was very good, nicely presented and the service was also great. Outside seating also available on those dryer days. Would strongly recommend.

Después de que le vendieron el lugar, estaba feliz de finalmente tener un sándwich y ¡es como si el dueño anterior nunca se hubiera ido! Sabe preparar un buen desayuno en cualquier momento del día. Sin embargo, el tocino es un poco grasoso. . . Aparte de eso, es un lugar muy bonito.

If this used to be a great bar it has since fallen off a cliff. The cocktails we had were atrocious and we couldn't even finish them (Corn exchange and a pornstar martini we got via the free drink offer) We booked a table a week in advance and ended up sitting next to the entrance so there was no cosy atmosphere that you would expect from seeing the pictures. You expect low lighting cute and cosy speakeasy vibes and you get a very bland space with music blaring and £13 cocktails that taste like Dettol. Have tried twice in 2 months and will not be returning for a third. (Fri / Sat) AVOID

The shawarma are the best things in Leeds.And the falafel is the best I can not lie

The Spanish Table dining experience was a great evening . An excellent tasting menu fro Andalusia with paired wines . Great service with descriptions of each dish . Lovely to share our experiences of Andalusia with the staff. Finally a great value for money evening. Looking forward to next event. Thank you all at Iberica for a memorable evening.
