Iconic Wen's lives up to its reputation

Superb cuisine at authentic family-run restaurant

- BY YEP REVIEWER

You know you're in a decent restaurant when its own branded tote bags on sale behind the bar.

An even bigger clue would be a glowing review from the Guard-ian, framed and hung on the wall.

Wen's, in North Street, is something of a Leeds dining out icon. It's an independent, family owned restaurant offering authentic, home-cooked Chinese cuisine and with an enviable reputation that meant even on a drizzly Wednesday evening, the place was buzzing.

Not quite every table was taken but there was a lovely mix of clientele, from a young family to couples to a group of older friends out celebrating a birthday.
