   The food was amazing - really interesting and good portion sizes. We didn't do the drinks pairing but the drinks that we had were also very good. We found the music to be very loud and it seemed out of synch with the food experience and the general age of the customers.

   Fantastic experience with a really interesting tasting menu. A couple of stand out delicious dishes. Top notch service from front of house team too. I know it’s meant to be controversial, but the mushroom tiramisu was really not to either of our taste! The smell and amount of powder on top was overwhelming. A shame it’s the final dish as it runs the risk of finishing on a low note for a lot of people I suspect. Music a bit loud as lots have said on reviews, but liked the upbeat choice of songs rather than bland mood music. Will definitely go again!

   The food was incredible and we really enjoyed the drinks pairings with each course. Weve experienced a number of Michelin tasting menus and thought the food and drinks here were comparable with a starred restaurant, so it was great value for money. The ambiance was great too. It was my husband’s birthday and the staff made an extra effort with him which we really appreciated as it made the evening extra special. Have already recommended it to everyone I know! We’ll definitely be returning soon.

    For us the dish that was out of this world was the octopus Thai green style. Hands down, the best octopus I have ever eaten! The porcini mushroom tiramisu could have done with less dusting - it was a bit too much. The drinks coupling was a tad pricy. But, I would still highly recommend!!!

    Excellent service both before our arrival and during the meal. Excellent food, inventive and very tasty. Quantities a bit large for us, which meant we couldn't enjoy the sweets as much as we'd have liked, but suspect that would be a plus for many people.

    In my opinion, this is the best restaurant in town, and there are some great restaurants in Leeds. Some places bend over backwards to show you how special they are: at V&V they bend over backwards to make you feel special. The food is simply outstanding: we had the vegetarian menu which was inventive, playful and absolutely delicious with flavours which managed to be both subtle and bold at once. The service is attentive without being intrusive, by the end of the evening we almost felt like we had made some new friends. It was great to be able to speak to Chef Jono before we left, such a talented and unassuming man. Do go, you won’t be disappointed!

    This was our favourite tasting menu experience ever. The food was sublime and very memorable. The drinks pairings were divine and gave us new favourites to keep drinking at home. I loved that there wasn't just some nondescript house beats playing in the background but a really fabulous tour of the musical classics over the years to give the restaurant an energised and romantic feel. Everything was completely perfect.

    The food and overall experience was absolutely terrific. This was our first 'tasting menu' experience and whilst some of the dishes certainly challenged us it was all delicious. The service and attentiveness of the staff was brilliant and they were extremely well informed about the food, wine and great to chat with.

    Delicious food with very inventive flavour combinations. Great value for money set menu and optional drinks pairing. Loved the ambience and staff were so friendly and informative. Just can’t wait to come back and do it all again. Chef Jono is very humble but what a talent! Well deserving of his recent accolades!

    Your food was excellent and intriguing. The only criticism I have is that the portion sizes, especially the beef, were too generous. Too me, a tasting menu should be several petit courses which don't overfill. JoJo's beef course would make any good restaurant proud to offer this as their standard main! Sometimes, less is more

    The Food, Service and atmosphere was excellent! The taster menu was delicious and good value for money. We also took advantage of the wine pairing which was good but we felt a little over priced, to be the same price as the food, which was so much better felt unbalanced. However it did not take away from the experience which we thoroughly enjoyed. The staff were extremely knowledgeable and were so friendly and welcoming. Would highly recommend a visit!

    We loved the attention to detail in the service and the cuisine. This restaurant was our choice for a special family gathering due to its excellent vegan menu as well as its regular menu. We felt the vegan menu equalled the other one which is rare. The food was delicious, interesting, thoughtful. I would highly recommend this place. Great fun and great team.

    We have dined at V & V a number of times now. It is by far our favourite restaurant in Leeds (and beyond). The food and service are second to none. The whole experience is faultless. Chef Jono well what can I say his food is absolutely incredible. Jerome, Hannah and all the staff are top notch, friendly and welcoming and extremely knowledgeable. If you want fine dining without the pretentiousness book a table at V & V. You won't be disappointed. Thank you once again for a fantastic dining experience. Tina and Andy.

    Well two days later Chef Jono won chef of the year and restaurant of the year so that says everything you need to know...just that nod from the Michelin guide to come now. The whole team were attentive and knowledgeable. The food was divine, we had booked for our wedding anniversary and the signed menu from Chef Jono was a simple but special touch. I also had a little chat with Jono as I left. All in all a special evening and already planning a return visit!

    Really nice restaurant, good knowledgable staff. Interesting array of dishes on the taster menu and left feeling very full. Only thing that spoilt the experience was a very loud obnoxious table acting like they were in Wetherspoons which somewhat spoilt the atmosphere of being a classy evening. The staff did eventually tell them to keep it down but by this point when you can’t hear what your waitress is saying over the cackle of noise, they perhaps should have told them sooner to act with a bit more decorum, rather than that clearly being the hardest choice they were having to make.

    Had a good evening the music and atmosphere were great the main thing we didn’t like was the first course of raw venison just felt a bit too adventurous fir us and more like a bush tucker trial We didn’t think the wine pairings were that good either but having said that we went with it and enjoyed the evening albeit a very expensive evening

    Booked a table for 4 to celebrate birthdays from late January and early February. We were super excited to be going as I had been following chef_jono_ on Instagram for ages and read amazing reviews about V&V. We were not disappointed the food and service were amazing and felt it was fantastic value for money. Jono did not disappoint with his inventive dishes although not all of them were to our taste. Our favourites of the night from the tasting menu were the Ramen Broth, Otopus & the Aged Beef. Not quiet so sure about the Mushroom Tiramisu. Great to be able to see Chef Jono at work due to the open plan kitchen and was even able to chat to him at the pass at the end of the meal. Not entirely sure I would of made much sense to him as by that point I had enjoyed a lovely bottle of cremant and a few bottles of wine with my friends. Staff extremely attentive and sociable and the great music playlist is also worth a mention. Can't wait to go back.
