I was really looking forward to lunch here. We were seated in a remote part of the back yard. Thare was a fenced chicken pen which smelled awful when a breeze came thru. 4 large geese made constant honking noises?? Our table was under a large tree and during our meal spiders, yes spiders, dropped from webs onto my plate & on my clothing and also on my partners hair. This was really disconcerting. We wanted to move but there was not available we wanted to move but the tableWe wanted to move But our waitress never came back during our entire mealWe wanted to moveBut our waitress never came back during the whole meal. The food was nicely presented but after 2 spiders dropped in my salad, I lost my appetite. It was a disappointing Experience all around. This is not my first visit And I normally do not make complaintsBut this wasBorderline ridiculous! If I do returnI will wait for a table inside

The food and service is excellent at Leaping Lizard. The atmosphere is relaxing and pleasant. The customer care/service exceeds expectations. Keep up the great work! It's appreciated.

A hidden gem worth discovering. The menu will not disappoint. The Chef cleary puts a lot of care and extra touches in the dishes. The food was excellent and the atmosphere is relaxing and comfortable.

This is one of our favorite spots when we come to VA beach. Never disappointed. Spoke to owner on our way out who stopped us and she was very personable. Always makes a visit that much more memorable.

We went for Easter lunch and everything was lovely. Our server was so sweet and the food was great. They were accommodating of our toddler and made our afternoon very fun!
Omg the atmosphere is amazing inside or outside is always gorgeous. The food is top-notch. I cannot believe how good it is Farm to table. Fresh absolutely delicious every time my friends come from out of town. This is where we're going thank you.

If I was local, I'd eat here frequently. There are lots of things on the menu that I'd like to try. The adjacent bakery has amazing items. I especially liked the almond sugar cookie. The ambience is fun and funky. There are geese loose in the back yard dining area. Dogs are allowed.

The butternut squash lasagna was outstanding and the homemade desserts are always a must. I am sorry that they are not open more nights.

Everything about this place was the best. Our waitress was so friendly and had amazing recommendations. I tried the duck hash at her recommendation and my friend got the crab cake Benedict. Both were amazing. The entire venue is beautiful and I am grateful they have a parking shepherd because the parking lot can get packed.
The bakery on site is not cheap, but it is so good.
I loved this place and cannot wait to come back. Make sure to visit the chickens and geese and walk down to the lake.
