As Leeds oldest and most respected French Restaurant, fine food, fine wine and fine surroundings go hand in hand to create a dining experience like no other.

Whether joining us for a business lunch or looking for somewhere special in the evening for a meal
to remember, we never disappoint.

Being the only French owned and run restaurant in Leeds, we pride ourselves on offering traditional French cuisine for over 30 years. Our reputation built on using only the finest and freshest ingredients, with all meat hung for many days to ensure it is full of flavour and exquisitely tender.

Our wine list boasts hand-picked wines with something to suit every palette and accompany every meal, while our cheese board is we believe, one of the finest in the UK.

All this and more is yours to enjoy in a little corner of Leeds which will always be France. Tucked away in a charming vaulted basement on Wellington Street.

Think of wine and chances are that you instantly conjure up images of vines growing on a picturesque French hillside.

And with good reason, because for hundreds of years France has enjoyed the reputation for producing the world’s finest wines thanks to its love of the grape.

At La Grillade, we celebrate this passion for wine with a selection of predominately French wines selected by our own in-house expert. He is none other than our owner who has his own vineyard in the Languedoc-Roussillon region of south west France.

As you can imagine, with such a connoisseur stocking our cellar, we offer a selection that is second to none and includes our own award winning wines grown at our vineyard, as well as champagne, rose champagne and port.

The result is a choice with something to suite every meal, every occasion and of course, every pocket.

For the last 30 years we have strived to give our guests an authentic French dining experience by serving classic cuisine in a relaxed, friendly setting.

We are very proud to have been recognised for achieving this through a host of renowned nominations and awards.

These include the prestigious Oliver Award for Best European Restaurant in 2010 and the Oliver Award for Outstanding Contribution in 2011.
