The success has come from their commitment to top quality food. I can live with that. They also always have great offers on such as the one they have on at the moment; Dinner and wine for two at £30 from sunday-thursday. That's a two course dinner, and I'd suggest the Scottish smoked haddock and the cold poached salmon. However whatever you chose is likely to be top notch as mentioned. Loch Fyne is what I would consider to be one of those safe bets when you are out dining. The Wirral has one and it is arguably one of the best restaurants in the region.

If you lucky you might find a unique catch on display when you visit, last year they had a 1.2 metre Swordfish caught from somewhere in West Africa on display.

I'm sure the slippery fella was included in the list of 10 Most Diabolical Fish on Earth that I was reading about on-line the other day. Anyhow, face to face with my sub-aquatic nemesis, I was truly amazed by this place. They have just about every possible type of fish and seafood one can think of, and more besides. I don't know how common this kind of comprehensive fish/seafood emporium is elsewhere, but I reckon it has to be worth a visit to Manchester alone and if you have some small children you could take, all the better! It's like some kind of edible museum. An aquarium of exotic tastes, no less. The staff were incredibly friendly too. I was told that the Conger Eel is often bought by African customers and you buy it by the slice. Other residents included huge bream and carp, a plethora of jet black catfish nestled barb to barb at the front of one side of the gargantuan oval counter and several decapitated fish heads, which according to the monger, are bought and used for fish stock. Further still along this plank of plenty, was the seafood section replete with pink spider crabs, king and emperor prawns, and an assortment of shellfish that ranged from cockles and whelks to oysters. What a place. Fin.

The menu contains a fusion mixture of Chinese, Japanese and Thai, and everything seems cooked to the highest freshness and quality. I really love the Sushi platters they serve, the deep fried sushi and the Bento Boxes. The Bento Boxes offer real value, within them you get noodles or rice, served with a choice of one of the meat or vegetables in sauce, three pieces of mixed sushi, a side bowl of salad and some tepura vegetables..all for under a tenner. East Ocean also does stunning thai curries, and most other types of Asian food, and although there is an emphasis on seafood, those who dislike it need not be wary - there are plenty of meat and vegetarian dishes. I also really like the interior of the restaurant, it's modern and light, with a water feature that gives a classy yet exotic feel. All in all, I rate this restaurant highly. The waiting staff are always very polite and very attentive and you even get some prawn crackers to snack on!

It's an odd venue that mixes sophistication with crayons. I jest not! You can go in and draw on the table clothes. Maybe I'm not the target age for that kind of behaviour but I had fun anyway! You've also got polished floors and an informal candle lit experience in this venue that has been going for over twenty years. It has also got some fine associations. Try a chef who trained at the Savoy for a quality shout. This shows in the menu as well. We are talking high end dishes. Beautifully adapted fish with delicious sauces, meat of the highest order and a very tempting veggie main. As for the deserts, it is another week living at the gym for me after a quite divine chocolate and nut brownie. Excellent food but not excellent prices. This will cost you so make sure you take someone special and I'm not talking Cheryl Cole here.

If you haven't tried traditional haggis, you are missing out on an excellent, slightly peppery, dish. As good as the "LFB" was, it lacked kippered herring - an all time favorite of mine, so I ordered some as a side. Two beautifully fried fish arrived. Nicely salty, very flavorful and with a squeeze of lemon, perfect. They bring back memories of my father frying them up as a special treat when I was a kid. Highly recommended for brunch.

I was going to meet a friend for lunch, and we took advantage of their lunch time deal, saving a few pennies. Now, bear in mind that you're saving little compared to other lunch deals, but that the extra cost does assure you this: the food is great. I don't know what else to say, although if you've read my reviews before, you'll know there's always more to elaborate on. I chose the roast chicken, being as I can't resist a Sunday lunch, and for dessert the creme brûlée. The chicken came in the most delightful pot, and the leg portion was more than enough for lunch. It felt like I was basically having an evening meal, which is no bad thing. We had ordered some side veg, that had been steamed and buttered with finesse, as much as you might consider veg to be cooked with flair. The leg came complete with the gravy of goddess, and couldn't have been cooked better in my humblest opinion. It was juicy, tender, and was finished off with a crispy bit of skin. I'm getting hungry just thinking about it, and I rarely find chicken interesting enough to ponder. The creme brûlée was probably one of the nicest I've had. Not overly creamy, not sugary. A perfect balance. As for the ambience, well. I guess this would depend on your preference. I can't deny there's an air of exclusivity, and not least due to the prices. That being said, I'd encourage a visit for several reasons. As a treat it's fabulous, and I can tell you now, I've walked in wearing jeans and had no comment. Not even a look. The staff are all lovely, and the view is, naturally, totally glorious as well. Locally sourced menu, beautifully presented, and super tasty. Job's a good 'un!

Although we didn't get one, there's tons of tables and seats by the window which means you get a beautiful view of central Leeds. I would come back and recommend it.
