Cow Lobster - Leeds

I had lunch here with my family who were visiting from France, so my expectations were high. The calamari appetizer was among the best I've ever had, and I could enjoy calamari anywhere it's served! The main dish, the chicken fajita, was perfect for lunch and came on a sizzling hot plate. One of our group ordered the half-pound burger, which was enormous and incredibly delicious! The service was excellent, and it was definitely worth the price!

The main courses didn't take long to serve either, and they were generous in portion size—hot, fresh, and of excellent quality. The service was attentive, with staff regularly checking in and offering more drinks. The restrooms were clean and tidy, although they were located downstairs, making them less accessible for those with mobility challenges, but it was just a short distance from the steps to the entrance. Overall, we enjoyed a high-quality meal in a pleasant setting, thanks to helpful staff. While it wasn't the cheapest option, it was ideal for a business meeting.

Great food and atmosphere as always—it's vibrant and lively. Service was a bit slower than usual, but that's understandable with new employees in training. Key management remains attentive and professional, despite the delays. Overall, it's one of the best places to eat in Leeds.

I cost the food. the personal was very friendly and attentive to my small child, which is always beautiful when they dine in a raised restaurant

Absolutely love this restaurant! Always have! It’s my favourite in Leeds for a steak and never disappoints! This time we had the Tomahawk (800g for Sunday lunch! Was lush. Let the chefs cook it to their recommendations- they are the experts after all. The lovely waitress(not sure of her name, ginger hair and nose ring-lovely girl! helped me select a great wine to accompany my food. Went for the Rioja 2014, it was gorgeous. Overall an amazing meal, birthday treat. A few things I was surprised at or had changed but did not change the fact that I will be back. The ambience is always lovely. Especially when the piano player is on! Feedback: The bread portion was a lot smaller than way back when, when comparing it to the butter portion it did make us chuckle! The sticky toffee pud was slightly cold in the middle but sauce was hot enough to get round this. Our waitress had left by the time we finished and I would have liked to say thank you to her before we left as she did such a brill job : See you again Blackhouse!
