Leeds is spoilt for choice when it comes to brilliant Italian restaurants.
Salvo's in Headingley has built its unshakeable reputation over decades, The Station House Cafe & Bistro in Garforth is rated as the best Leeds Italian on TripAdvisor, while Zucco in Meanwood was one of just 11 Leeds restaurants included in the Good Food Guide 2019.
So if you like a lasagne or go mad for a pizza party, Leeds is the place to be. In such a competitive market, the standards are incredibly high and while the food at Riva Blu was reasonable, there is certainly better value for money elsewhere in the city.
