Leila by the Bay offers excellent food, service, and atmosphere. The raspberry lemon drop drink is delicious, and their lemon garlic prawns fettuccine, short ribs, and surf and turf are must-tries. The restaurant has wheelchair accessibility. With cozy views, a simple menu, and kind staff, Leila's breakfasts and dinners are enjoyable. Their Risotto is a favorite, but the lack of paper menus in April 2024 is a downside. Recently, guests praised the peaceful setting and outdoor dining, noting the generous portion of the meat lover's omelet, although some found the breakfast potatoes a bit too salty. The staff is friendly and attentive, and the online menu is easy to access. Visitors are encouraged to try the blue mimosa during brunch, making Leila a hidden gem worth a visit.
Guests have also enjoyed the indoor and outdoor seating with a fantastic view of the bay, especially on warm days. The lamb shank is cooked to perfection, moist and tender with a great spice blend. Many recommend the breakfast options like corned beef hash and eggs, and the corned beef breakfast burritos are popular. The restaurant is a great place for mid-morning Sunday brunch, offering a cozy and welcoming environment. Overall, Leila by the Bay remains a favorite for its great food, friendly service, and relaxing atmosphere, making it a place worth visiting repeatedly.
