Diners will be offered signature dishes such as the Aberdeen Angus steak served with shiitake, asparagus and caramel soy, as well as new additions that have been developed by executive chef Clifton Muil and his team for the spring-summer menu, including sweet soy sticky short rib and Tattu’s interpretation of traditional dishes such as Cantonese style chicken and the classic banana fritter dessert.

The venue is owned by Adam and Drew Jones.

Adam, managing director of Tattu Restaurants, said: “We are very excited to see peoples’ reaction to the new design.

“There has been a huge focus on detail – true to the Tattu brand – but we have explored a new take on the concept for Leeds. The ‘U’ in Tattu stands for unique and the new restaurant will be exactly that.

“Each element, from the dishes on the menu to the beautiful cocktails, the crockery, glassware and the whole customer journey, has been carefully considered to deliver something we hope will be very special.

“Over the past two years we have worked very hard as a team to refine and constantly improve our offering and are very happy with the direction the brand is taking.

“This new venue has been created especially for the people of Leeds, and we look forward to welcoming our new guests when we open in June.”
