   Service, especially the bar staff was really poor. They were too busy chatting to each other than serving customers. Staff were young and hadn't a clue what a blend whisky was compared to a malt. Best I can say about the food is that it was okay.

   We wanted to have a lovely meal before going to a show. The ambience of the restaurant was ideal. So lovely and peaceful and we could hear ourselves talk. Food was excellent and the staff were very attentive. This was a marvellous start to our whole evening. Will be back again.

   Really smart modern look to the restaurant. Service was good, we were slotted in earlier with no problem. Food was priced well and we had a lovely meal. Would definitely visit again.

   Pricy, characterless. Basic food, inconsistent with price. A windowless box somewhat like an airport carvery. Down-trodden staff prompted a tip despite 12.5% already added. A disappointment (and a surprise) given what you find in the rest of Leeds. Nearly spoilt the evening - but not quite.

   Very average wine that was probably overpriced for what it was. Well cooked steak and vegetarian option, prompt service although they forgot our side orders.

   Family was visiting and we decided pretty last minute to book a table via open table. We arrive at the restaurant and the place is empty, but the host makes a huge deal about our late booking and insists that the kitchen is super busy and that he is expecting a bunch of bookings just after 6pm. We insist we don’t mind waiting for food as we aren’t starving. He seats us and our mains are ordered and out in less than 45 minutes, so not as long a wait as we expected, keep in mind we had starters/nibbles. The whole time he makes us feel pretty uncomfortable and not one single group came in. By the time we left after 8pm, still no one had arrived and there were maybe 3 other tables in the whole restaurant. The waitress was lovely though so we still tipped as it wasn’t her fault at all. The food was fine but relatively boring.

   This is a very typical hotel restaurant - the kind I would typically avoid and I was reminded why when we ate here. No atmosphere and generally the service could be beat described as indifferent. Only one person stood out as having a strong sense of service as he tried to compensate for one very poor meal. We were very grateful to him for caring that we had some enjoyment in the evening.

    Definitely better than most hotel restaurants. A small but interesting menu with well presented and cooked food. A little bit pricey once you start adding in the side orders, but very lovely staff.

    We booked as it was a Saturday night and there were 6 adults and 2 four year olds the 3 course festive menu for £ 25 was outstanding value and everything was tasty hot, and very well presented . Everyone commentated on our waiter ( I wish I had taken his name) he was superb, kind attentive and so professional, and when one of the girls knocked her drink over he was there in a shot replacing the drink and cleanup the spillage and clearing the glass he was a credit to your company

    Shocking service. There was over 1 hour wait between starter and main course which, as the restaurant itself was not overly busy, was unacceptable. One starter was stone cold. Additionally, another meal was completely different to as advertised. Very disappointing, especially as was booked for a very special occasion. Will not be returning. Feel particularly sorry for the waiting staff who had to deal with the complaints, who were very apologetic for the food and service of the kitchen staff.

    The restaurant was very clean, the food was outstanding and the service was impeccable. I’m currently on slimming world so my food choices can be fussy. Our waitress went out of her way to ensure I had the options I needed all the while with a mile on her face. Well worth visiting.

    Group of 4 friends enjoyed a lovely steak dinner. Only downside was probably the steak fries were pretty average, something very like frozen ones out of a bag. Steak was delicious as was the wine and sides we ordered. Only real downside was the wait time it took for our meal to be served.

    Great atmosphere, went for birthday cocktails with my mum and sister. Cocktails were amazing and the bar staff were very accommodating. Were happy to provide cocktails that weren't on the menu (Traditional Mojito).

    Service was very slow. Burger was overcooked and very dry. The rest of our parties’ steaks weren’t cooked as requested. They knocked 20% off the bill bit still wasn’t great value. Won’t be returning

    We stayed at the Marriott hotel for our ten year wedding anniversary so had our evening meal booked in at Midtown Grill. Fantastic food! The cook came to talk to us and ask us how our meal was which was really lovely! Perfect with the restaurant being on the premises of the Marriott hotel and a fabulous bar next door! We spent the whole evening there! Would recommend to others for the evening meal. Not a great breakfast in all fairness, not for £10 each!

    The only point I would make is that the waitress did not explain they had to order sides so some of our group ( I booked for 2 but it turned into 10 ) had to order chips and vegetables AFTER the main meal had arrived. A prompt would have been really useful and several people were a bit disappointed when one fish on a plate arrived with nothing else!

    This is the second time I've been to Midtown Grill. It felt like the first time was a better overall experience as I believe the food was better. For a Saturday night the place was half empty and I believe the main reason is the high prices. The inside is fabulous and classy though, while the service was excellent as well. Set aside the value, it was a good experience in general.

    Came last year and we were put amongst a works party of about 200 ! If it wasn't for the food I doubt we'd have gone again !! This time the party was in another room which left the restaurant nice and peaceful ! Only complaint is the service like last year was a bit slow ! After asking if we could have 10muns to decide on dessert it was at least 30mins later when we decided to not bother as no-one had come back to take order !! Again the same thing had happened the previous year ! Having said that the food is amazing just need to brush up on service !!

    The food was really good, highly recommend the Thai steak starter but make sure your hungry because it's quite large and as we had the steal starter we didn't have the steak main course, I had the lamb which was lovely but really too much with the starter and my partner for the evening had fish and chips which he managed to finish but it was again large. Other than the food the Resturant was empty - we shared with one other couple for the first 20 mins and the rest of the time we were alone in inch was good for chatting but the atmosphere was non existent and for a Resturant in central Leeds on a Friday evening was quite amazing - especially as the food was so good.

    The mulligatawni soup was so salty we could not eat it. We pointed this out to our waiter but no comment was received . We were very disappointed with the service. We had to wait for our steaks. These were served without chips. It took a while to get the attention of a waiter to ask for the inclusive chips to be brought. This again took a long time. No dessert menu was offered . When, agter asking for the dessert menu to be bought, e decided on our choices, no waiter was available to take our order. We declined dessert asfet a long wait and asked for the bill. This again took a long time. We were amazed that 12.5% service charge had been added for a party of four? We pointed out the soup problem again and the slow service and asked for the service charge to be removed.

    Booked the hotel restaurant for ease, as we were arriving in Leeds fairly late. Atmosphere was casually relaxed and menu simple. Adam, our waiter, was fabulous, so pleasant, helpful and accommodating. I had seen a Yorkshire pudding on the menu online before our stay and unfortunately it was off the menu. I mentioned it to Adam and hey presto, the head chef appeared and chatted away to us. Guess what I had specially made for my pudding? The most amazing Yorkshire Pudding and berry dessert. Heaven. Fabulous food and friendly, helpful staff. Gorgeous.

    Booked last minute for steak dinner on a Friday evening (glad we did book as it got busy around 7.30pm). Good attentive service by knowledgable and friendly staff. Took advantage of the 2 steak meals for £40 on their website which offered very good value for money. Good kids options and pleasant atmosphere. If you're looking for a good steak and glass of wine in the city centre, then you really can't go wrong.

    I arrived slightly early so I went to let them know we had arrived, they sat us down early which was good however from here this is as good as it got. A waiter came over to introduce himself and said he would be looking after us all night, he brought our drinks and that was the last we saw of him, another waiter came to take our order. We order some bread as a starter as well our mains, we waited 45 minutes for some bread! During that time no one came to ask if we were OK or if we needed anything, eventually we got up and walked out as we had had enough, as we were walking out the manager said goodbye please come again, I would not recommend this restraunt, I was really shocked as friends had been before and enjoyed it, I will not be booking a table with this place again.
