sardine(15) salad(12) chef(9) recommend(8) merguez(8) highly recommend(7) amine(7) toast(7) bar(7)I read the reviews & was excited to try this place but must say fell short of some expectations. The drinks , food ( portion ) are wildly overpriced. Atmosphere is great, service is lacking profoundly. Spent over $100.00 to leave extremely hungry & to some extent upset. The waitress was of no help in any way, hardly ever asked if seconds were required ( this was an event ) . I honestly think they over shot their idea & did not prepare properly as such. Farm fresh to table is not expensive or is not meant to be. If the chef knows his/her stuff then portions would be great & variety inexhaustible. As well asking if allergies are prevalent & offering or discussing a plate , advising it would be served & never was , is misleading & to some extent disheartening. Suffice it to say will not go back nor recommend to friends or acquaintances. A lot to be desired!View more
EXCEPTIONAL.
Service was absolutely top tier. We collectively ordered most of the menu, & the least good thing I could say was one of the salads was a simple, classic, French bistro style, which was expertly executed, but just less exciting than their imaginative take on a caesar. Great cooking. Great vibes. Solid cocktails. Definitely get the octopus.View more

Would definitely go back!View more
L'endroit est cosy & le menu très sympa. A plusieurs, on peut faire des combinaisons de petits plats. Les entrées, délicieuses : pieuvre grillée, merguez. Puis on a pris des pâtes, excellentes.View more
What a beautiful addition to the Mile End.
From the minute you walk in to the minute you roll out completely satisfied; the service was a 10/10.
The food was delicious & introduced me to new flavours I never thought I would enjoy. Tie it all together with a comfortable & inviting ambiance & it's the perfect place for a date night, a random night out or your go to spot for any occasion.
Well done boys!View more

Incroyable soirée au restaurant Leila. On a tout aimé: le service, le staff, l'ambiance, la musique, le vin, la bouffe! LA BOUFFE! Je sais que le menu change régulièrement, mais nous avons essayé les escargots, les merguez, la salade de laitue amer & artichauts ainsi que les cavatellis aux pois & agneau. Je me surprends à dire que le meilleur plat était la salade, non seulement parce que tout était excellent, mais parce que ça reste une salade. Honnêtement, elle était parfaite. Les merguez étaient goûteuses, les escargots savoureux, les pâtes fraiches & parfaitement salées. Je n'ai rien à dire de négatif sur notre soirée. On y retournera définitivement. 5 étoiles, 10/10! Bravo Amine & toute l'équipe pour cet immense projet.View more
Had the best time here! Incredible food, cocktails, ambiance & service. All of the staff were attentive, kind, & gave great recommendations for food. My friend & I sat at the bar & had the best evening. It matched our time at other Michelin rated places. Do NOT miss this spot! Kudos to the owners, chefs, & staff for a great gem!View more
Service vif, chaleureux & courtois & une menu traditionel & audacieux avec une superbe terasse & un backroom mythique. Leila a tout pour plaire. Les sardines sont les meilleurs que jai mange de ma vie & la sommeliere est top notch vraiment recommande pour un date night ou un 5 a 7 de bureau sur la terasseView more
Le menu dégustation était excellent & généreux. Nous sommes venu visiter le restaurant car le chef Amine Laabi était notre préféré dans sa saison des chefs, & nous n''avons pas été déçu. Repas délicieux, ambiance superbe & service rapide. Le chef a même pris le temps de venir nous parler suite à une demande de ma part.View more
Everything was perfect from the service to the food itself. You have to try the octopus & the mushroom pasta, they are amazing. Special mention to the chef Amin who came to make sure we liked everything. Very niceView more
Bon repas mais je n'ai pas été impressionné comme certains qui ont apparemment été épaté par la cuisine.View more
Amazing food & team running the restaurant! Danny & the team rock, they have a great new patio.View more
10/10 !!! We were a big group of 16 & everything was perfect! Cant wait to be back!View more
I stopped on my way home at 10PM. I was hungry & asked if the kitchen was still open before staying. All seating options were available but I sat at the bar because I was alone.
The food was clean, simple & very tasty. Of course the presentation was also mouth watering. They are doing very complicated things using the best & freshest. What I ordered gave me the impression that everything on the menu is done perfectly. It doesn't matter what you order here as long as you come here & eat!
The kitchen was probably close to the end of service but there was no let up AT ALL on their end. Usually quality fizzles at that time but not at Leila. They are really on top of their service & quality.
The desserts & coffee where served in beautiful dishes. It really does make it taste better. Great touch.
My server (who is the bartender & restaurant sommelier) did a great job explaining the food & even choosing for me. She is extremely dedicated to her work & the hospitality. She really enjoys her craft & this is very evident. A great ambassador to the restaurant.
Last I'll mention the price. There is alot of value in the meal experience for the price you pay.
Very well done by 4 young guys who are probably going to be doing big thingsView more
