Review Summary

Leila has quickly become a celebrated destination in the Mile End, recognized for its warm, unpretentious atmosphere and exceptional hospitality. Many diners praise the seasonal, Mediterranean-inspired menu, frequently highlighting standouts like the sardines on toast, octopus, and expertly prepared pastas as evidence of the kitchen's focus on fresh, high-quality ingredients. While the majority of guests describe the service as personal, attentive, and passionate, experiences with portion sizes and value vary, with some finding the plates generous and others feeling they are on the smaller side for the price. Overall, the combination of a cozy setting, a thoughtful wine list, and a vibrant, authentic vibe makes it a highly recommended spot for both casual outings and special occasions.

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 .
