Red Chilli Chinese Restaurant

I have given Red Chilli 4* but I think realistically it's somewhere between 3*&4*. Here on a Friday night, not overly busy. Service was polite but not easy to get attention. The menu is massive, very difficult to hone in on what the restaurant specialises in. There were some nice flavours on display, but lacked some attention to detail, I found the dim sum a little dry. The belly pork was enjoyable but not exceptional. The basa fish soup was the best dish we ordered, the broth full of spice, flavour and Szechwan pepper. The rice was oddly presented in a metal dish, a portion of rice usually comes in a little bowl which also keeps it warm. I am being tough but that is because restaurants around Leeds and London have really stepped up their game over the years.

Nice atmosphere to the restaurant very nice deco. Friendly staff and the food was spot on could not fault it. With authenticity cooked food. Recommend a visit if your in Leeds. Parking not to bad. Turn left at the restaurant some parking space there if not you can park at morrisons. 2 min walk.

Retuning to Red Chilli 15years later was quite disappointing. I used to love their dishes during my uni life. Although it was quite empty, the service was very sluggish and all the dishes didn't come at once. We had to ask for a bill a couple of times. Additionally, a highly recommended vegetables with crispy noodles were extremely greasy which made us feel sick. Was good to go back to see how things have changed but no need for further trials for us

Really nice Chinese restaurant. Friendly and helpful staff. The atmosphere is light and relaxed. An extensive menu with a great selection of foods. The food was tasty and portions were generous. I would recommend this place

For what we paid the food was very mediocre and lacked flavour. We was really looking forward to visiting here all week and it wasn't worth the wait sadly. The staff were amazing, I can't fault the service the slightest. However the food wasn't up to standards. The soups were ok-ish but missed some ingredients that was stated on the menu, the noodles represented the texture of Bombay mix the meats that came with the dish were questionable, the prawns were very gritty and the sauce wasn't anything like salty duck egg yolk. When asked questions about some items on the menu which were very basic and we got the answer of "I don't know" we wasn't offered glasses for our drinks. Only good thing was the free glass of wine. Maybe in the future we will try again when the full menu is available but for the time being we won't be returning any time soon which is a shame
