Ne mérite clairement pas 4.8 étoiles actuelles. Les plats sont 50/50 certaines saveurs bien réussies, d'autres un échec total. Les portions sont beaucoup trop petites pour ce qu'on paye. Je recommande pas.

The food was quite good but disappointed in so many other ways. The service was terrible . Extremely slow & non engaging . As it was our first time she recommended the'tasting menu' as we were 4 people. Portions were so small I felt like I was robbed . The main course was 3 pieces of swordfish for 4 people how does that make sense ? The food was good but a restaurant is more than just the food & they did not deliver .

This place was recommended by a friend. Parking was tough & called in to say we may be a bit late & we were comforted that our table would be waiting. Once there, we were warmly received. Our waiter Danny was excellent. Was very enthusiastic about his presentation & adept in both French & English. Decor was nice as well as the atmosphere. The wine list was good but not many value options. Thought that pricing was high & could use more lower price options. I liked the small'market fresh' menu. As for the food, there were some winners & some losers. The buratta straciatella was good but the brown butter wasn't browned enough in my opinion. We were told easily shared among us 4 but better for 2. The sardines on toast was delicious & again, good for 2. The bitter salad was excellent & was a play on a Caesar salad & that was ok for 4. The merguez sausage was by far the most disappointing dish of the night. As soon as the plate was placed on the table, I could smell how gamey the lamb was. It was way too strong & they said it was Quebec lamb but smelt more like New Zealand. Nobody at the table was a fan. Three at the table took pasta as their mains & the portions were quite small. The cavatelli fagioli was ok. Nothing really special about it. My Guinea fowl was well prepared & juicy with crispy skin. The beans on top were ok & I find detracted from the delicate meat & I found the $58 price tag a bit steep. The food was very homestyle. With a few adjustments to portions & plate composition, this place could easily be 5 stars. The highlight was definitely the service which is a great place to start.

Very tasty food & friendly staff. We had the octopus, olives & shishito, sardine toast, sucrine, busiata, espadon, pistachio cake & basque cheesecake & every single dish was delicious. The outdoor seating was nice too. Highly recommended! We will be coming back for sure.

What an amazing night in my hood! Nice, cozy & friendly little gem. The service was over my expectations which I didn't have, the food experience was very good & all this at a reasonable price. Would strongly recommend.

Leila est une véritable trouvaille & un incontournable de Montréal qui saura vous surprendre & vous charmer.
Appelez-les même si leur système de réservation affiche complet : il y a de très bonnes chances qu'ils puissent vous accommoder, que ce soit dans l'alcôve à l'arrière ou au bar à l'avant.
Le personnel est compétent & passionné, & l'échange avec eux rend l'expérience encore meilleure.
Leur cuisine témoigne d'une réelle maîtrise technique & d'un soin attentionné.
Demandez des recommandations : on vous orientera vers des plats que vous auriez pu écarter, mais que vous regretteriez de ne pas avoir commandés en les voyant arriver aux autres tables. C'est d'autant préférable de leur demander des recommandations, que le menu change au rythme des arrivages de saison & surtout car les descriptions des plats ne rendent vraiment pas justice à ce qui vous attend.
Les portions sont généreuses & prévues pour être partagées. Les desserts étaient si réussis que j'envisage déjà d'y retourner prochainement simplement pour un digestif & satisfaire ma dent sucrée.

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!

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 terasse

Expérience 10/10. Je recommende fortement ce restaurant & j'y retourne bientôt. Chaque plat était très bon & les goûts sont vraiment recherché. Le service aussi, rien à dire, c'était exceptionnel! Ma copine & moi, on les a prévenue de notre retard pour la réservation & ils ont été super compréhensifs. Nous étions même les dernieres clientes au resto & il y a pas une seule fois qu'on a sentie une pression de partir. Ambiance très chaleureuse & personnel très aimable. Merci!

In one word,'wow' - what an amazing experience we had at Leila?? The minute we entered the door, the service from everyone was exceptional. Special shout out to Danny, our server, who presented the menu options with such passion & enthusiasm. Amine Laabi was kind enough to stop by to talk to us as he helped us decide on our final choices. We decided on a shared menu for 2, which I highly recommend: marinated peppers/ olives/ pickles, sardines on toast, ricotta brown butter, octopus on a bed of white bean purée, tagliatelle ragu, & last night's special - capellini with lobster. Everything was scrumptious & decadent while plated beautifully on what seemed like my grandmother's heritage dinnerware. We were so full that we opted out on dessert but the options all sounded delicious. The ambiance is warm & inviting with its eclectic, vintage decor. We will be back - I highly recommend Leila & it's Mediterranean cuisine❣?
