Just a really cute place, with yummy, fresh and authentic food! We loved it as a family, the soft cheese bread with honey was epic, had to order another! Don’t expect luxury but a nice simple meal out.

Had bread with a spicy paste, flatbread and hummus. It was all very tasty. Best hummus I've ever had. I could have eaten several bowls of it! Will definitely be returning next time I'm in Leeds.

My favourite food spot in the market! I’ve been here a few times but always can’t wait to go back and there is always something else on the menu I want to try. I recommend the soft cheese bread the most, drizzled with a bit of honey. Despite being busy as it is clearly very popular the food comes out very quickly and prices are reasonable.

Absolutely the best falafel in Leeds, honestly falafel guys isn't even close. Freshly baked flatbread for each order, everything is made by hand each day, including the hummus. The balance of flavours is perfect, fresh herbs and tahini dressing top it off.

It was a cozy restaurant situated within a market in Leeds city center. They specialize in delectable Middle Eastern fare, including flavorful falafel sandwiches and LahmBajin. Their service was prompt and efficient, and they accepted both cash and card payments. If you're looking for delicious and authentic Middle Eastern food in Leeds, I highly recommend this restaurant.

Quite possibly the best Shawarma I have ever had. How could it not be good? The bread is cooked before one's eyes, as is the meat. A neat, tiny industry - what a great endeavour. Thank you "Eastern Oven".
