Mogador Restaurant — Restaurant in Leeds

My friend and I recently decided to try out Mogador for dinner, based on an online recommendation. Prior to our visit, I called and was pleased to learn that the restaurant was halal and didn't require reservations. We arrived just after opening time to find the place empty, and the lovely waitress promptly seated us. However, we had to change our seats three times before even ordering due to the uncomfortably cold temperature in the restaurant. We ended up eating our meal with our coats and gloves still on. It is crucial for the manager to address this issue as it significantly impacted our dining experience. The food was quite good, though because of the cold, we asked to have it packed up to finish at home.

We ordered the meatballs mezze platter, dolma and the Mogador lamb shank couscous to share. The meatballs and dolma were very nice, but the fancy plate the starters were all served on made it challenging to eat without food falling onto the table.

Next a tough decision between multiple scintillating sounding dishes and brief wait before an explosion of flavour, presented exquisitely, filled our bellies. The friendly waitress, tidy bill and two sherbet lemons sent us on our way into the stark contrast of bitter wind outside. Mogador will surprise, stir and satisfy you. Get ready for a...

Came here for the first time with 3 kids and the husband. It was amazing. The children’s portions are huge. The meatball mezze was phenomenal. I had the lamb chops for a main and reluctantly had to share with my daughter who got plate envy. The server was so attentive polite and interested in the children. My children were over the moon pancakes were also on the menu, aswell as fudge cake. If I had to stretch for a criticism then it would be the desserts were stone cold including the pancakes. My son did ask for his fudge cake warming and this was done with no trouble. When we go again I will definitely be asking for the pancakes to also be heated. But this restaurant has now made our family favourite...
