Good range of dishes so there should be something for everyone here, even those who have quite a few 'can't eat's or 'won't eat's. Friendly service. Good location.

We had a lovely evening. Service was great and food definitely didn't disappoint. There was a nice selection of dishes to choose from and some alternatives from other tapas restaurants we've been to.

Fantastic evening at Bilbao Bar, great food, service and atmosphere. We weren't rushed, even with a queue of customers waiting for seats later on. Waitress was friendly and helpful, food was delicious and best of all half price menu on a Monday! What more could you want. Great little restuarant we will be returning.

Great atmosphere, delicious food and really friendly service. Even without the 50% off Monday offer (on selected dishes) Bilbao is so worth a visit. Enjoy!

Nice food, very tasty and good value too. Would go again for sure. Stand out items for me would be the steak, blue cheese croquettes, sabrasada and the padron peppers

Fantastic food, best tapas food in Leeds city centre however service really let this restaurant down. We had missing dishes but when we asked we could see them sat at the past for 10 minutes. A Pudding never arrived despite ordering this, even had to ask for the menu as we weren't offered, and ask to order it! staff talking to friends at the bar rather then looking after customers. You could see other tables had the same issue. We couldn't understand why as plenty of staff on. It's was a shame as took the edge of a fantastic meal

Just fine .... Music a bit too loud, and service OK but not quite attentive enough. Food pleasant (calamari v. good) but not outstanding. I would go back.

The food and drinks were absolutely gorgeous. They were really patient with us both at being late to arrive and go! We were all shocked at how little it cost too! Will definitely go again often!

Very disappointed. Although the food was ok, we arrived and were told we could not have the Christmas menu because we didn't ask them in advance. Firstly, surely asking this question is the responsibility of the restaurant. Secondly, on 3 occasions I asked if they would like us to order food in advance to help them on the night and I was simply told that wouldn't be necessary. For a location with only 5 tables I was quite astonished that the 5 waiters has the audacity to turn round and tell us that they were rushed off their feet. In addition, despite it being Christmas, there was not one effort to be remotely festive. The entire experience was underwhelming because although the food was ok, if we had just had our expectations managed there would have been no issues. What a shame.

When I arrived at the restaurant they had no idea about my booking! We had to sit at the bar to eat, the restaurant were really good and did everything to accomadate the booking that in their eyes never happened!

When you go somewhere as a couple, then tell your family how good it is and book in for all of them, you have that nervous moment where you think "maybe it won't be as good as we billed it" we needn't have bothered though, because it WA a brilliant. Great food, relaxed atmosphere and a pretty good drinks menu to boot! My son loved his chocolate brownie, and fed me croquettes and we walked out fed and happy. The waiting staff were all friendly and gave us plenty of time - the chefs even came out to marvel at my boy devouring his dessert! We'll definitely go back, Bilbao is fast becoming one of my favourite places in Leeds! Keep it up!

The food was inconsistent in quality. One very good dish, the rest so-so. Service was excellent, but the bar was so noisy that it was impossible to carry on a conversation.
