Pranzo Italian Horsforth

You wouldn't expect to find some of Leeds' best Italian food tucked away on Horsforth's Town Street, but here we are. The team at Pranzo have created something special – a neighbourhood restaurant that takes its food seriously without any of the stuffiness that usually comes with it. The handmade pasta is the real deal, and their ragu has that slow-cooked depth that only comes from doing things properly. Weekend evenings get properly buzzy with families and couples alike, but even on a quiet Tuesday lunch, there's something about the place that makes you want to linger over another glass of wine. The service hits that sweet spot between attentive and relaxed, and honestly, it's become one of those places you find yourself recommending to anyone within a ten-mile radius.
