Dough Bistro - RestaurantDough Bistro is a fantastic independent restaurant offering modern British, homemade, organic cuisine sourced from the local area, but inspired from across the world. Dough Bistro was Founded in 2004 and is located in West Park (Leeds). Dough was taken over in 2007 by experimental and creative chef, Luke Downing, and is fast becoming one of Leeds' most esteemed restaurants.
The restaurant offers a dynamic menu, which usually consists of 8 starters, followed by a sorbet to cleanse the pallet, then 8 mains and desserts. The menu changes daily as all produced is sourced from the local area, virtually nothing is delivered. With everything being freshly prepared and homemade, anyone with specific dietary requirements can have those requirements adhered to with no problems at all.
Dough Bistro has 32 covers and can cater for parties up to 40. The restaurant is available to hire for all sorts of occasions from weddings to birthday parties.
The restaurant creates unique dishes that are homemade and exceptionally presented. Dough's surroundings are authentically parisian in style making an atmosphere that one can't find in any chain restaurant. The surroundings are chic and romantic, with candle lights, wooden floors and exposed bricks Dough really does create a dinning experience perfect for an exquisite night out.
Dough is mainly run by four members of staff, who all love working there. The working proprietor and head chef wanted to create an organisational culture that is not generally seen in restaurants round the country. Dough Bistro has an expanding customer base, but is still considered one of Leeds' best kept dinning secrets. Dough likes to keep the food as the focal point, offering a set four course menu on Friday and Saturdays, with a la carte available through out the week. Dough is now open for Sunday lunch, otherwise is open from 6-11 Tuesday-Saturday, with booking certainly advisable. Dough is fully licensed, but allow one to 'bring your own wine', which is great on the wallet. Dough also runs an early bird menu from Tuesday to Thursdays every week. The restaurant is owned by Luke Downing who's admiration, passion and creative expression all come through in Dough's exceptional food.

5.0 out of 5 | I have been to dough bistro a number of times in the last year and each time I am surprised by the exceptional quality of the food and the diverse menu. The staff are friendly and helpful and a trip to Dough always results in a good night, that's why we keep on going back time and time again. There aren't many food places that I would recommend to friends and family but I constantly find myself relaying tales of nights in Dough and the quality food I have eaten to people for weeks after I have visited. It is a special kind of dining experience; with so many identikit faceless restaurants around these days it's brilliant to find a place with so much character with staff who actually seem to care about the food they serve you. I heartily recommend if you do visit you should get the Chocolate Fondant for dessert; a perfect end for what is always a near perfect meal. Tim Livesey - 14 May 2008 |
