Help!

My parents are coming for a visit in a few weeks time and want to go out for a meal. I need to find a restaurant in Leeds, preferably city centre, that is:

• Posh enough to feel like a nice evening out
• Not so posh that you feel you ought to be dressed up to the nines to be there
• Has some kind of 'Kris food' on the menu (i.e. big chunks of meat or burgers)
• Isn't predominantly a fish restaurant
• Isn't Indian, Mexican or anywhere where everything is spicy
• Isn't too noisy
• Will take bookings

So, any suggestions? I don't dine out that often so my experience of Leeds restaurants is limited...

Gourmet burger kitchen is a good start. Not sure it's quite "posh enough". They don't take bookings but you're unlikely to have issues.

Browns on the headrow is great. Nice food, not overly expensive and does a lovely burger - as well as steak, pasta, various veggie options. They also do wonderful cocktails.

La Grillade?

French, nice, near the station.

How about Little Tokyo - some of the box sets include big hunks of meat......and its tasty rather than spicey if you know what I mean.

Mmmm mixed fry box set.......

browns or cafe rouge in the light.

How about Sam's Chop House - corner of Greek Street/East Parade side. They do big chunks of meat, burgers, it's not too posh but it is great food - I've never been but everybody who has highly recommends it.

Maxi's is good, fulfils criteria and has english dishes (e.g. steak) which should solve the "big hunks of meat" problem..
