1. De Baga
Goan restaurant De Baga offers fine-dining in a casual atmosphere in the heart of Headingley.

4. Voujon
This Indian restaurant has drawn in high praise on Tripadvisor. One reviewer said: "Menus were extensive and all mains and starters were well-cooked and tasted wonderful. My lamb biriani was tasty and lamb tender, it was served with a side of vegetable curry"
5. Santorini
Be transported to the Greek islands with a meal at Santorini, a Mediterranean restaurant with decorative tiles, beautiful decor and a dedicated ‘Gin Room’. Choose hearty Turkish and Greek mains, like moussaka, souvlaki and spiced lamb meatballs, or graze on the meat, veggie and seafood mezze platters.
