The food was fantastic our server was absolutely darling but the poutine was to die for
This restaurant in downtown Miami is a bit on the pricier side but well worth the hype. We had a patio seat towards the back and were a bit out of the main path. We could not have asked for better food or service; my husband noted that it was one of the best dining experiences of his life. In a sea of Miami options, it's worth it.
We just had a most excellent meal at Leunig's Bistro. Everything was wonderful. We started with the duck confit poutine. It was incredibly delicious. Just the right combination of salt and spice with a decadent gravy over the fries. We had three different entrees: duck two ways, braised short ribs, and steak frittes. The duck was divine. The short ribs were amazing. The steak was really wonderful and the fries were even better. All in all, it exceeded our expectations.
To start, we ordered the calamari and French onion soup as appetizers. The calamari was perfectly cooked and crispy, while the French onion soup was the true standout. The rich, flavorful broth was packed with flavor, and the melted cheese on top added the perfect touch. The bread service is a must-try, as they offer freshly baked, crusty baguettes that pair beautifully with the appetizers and the rest of the meal. For the main course, we indulged in the steak frites, which were amazing. The steak was tender, perfectly cooked, and coated in a luxurious, decadent sauce that elevated the dish. The crispy frites were the perfect accompaniment, and I made mine to truffle. The wine menu was diverse, offering a great selection that paired wonderfully with the meal. On top of the delicious food, the service was exceptional, with attentive and friendly staff.
Amiable service but super slow. Awesome drinks and good food but the breads are a bit hard to chew. Sitting on terrace, the vibe was good. Prices are steep.
We stopped in Burlington on our way back to Boston from Canada and Leunig's had the most interesting menu in the area by a country mile. We had the goat cheese, calamari, carbonara, and onion soup. Every dish was delicious and we somehow managed to clean every plate! The 5 stars are well deserved
Overall: what a way to cap a beautiful day trip through Vermont. We had read another individuals review saying how he recently went on an emotional journey and came solo. Leunigs was pretty good with company too. Food: get the poutine full stop. A half portion (ask the server) is more than enough for 3 people to share. The duck with the cheese curds and the confit gravy really just starts you off with richness. I ordered the roasted chicken and I think the highlight was the vegetables. I had to tell the waiter that these were probably the most "real" vegetables I've had in a long time. Fresh full of flavor and taste like they came straight out of a garden. The meal really just reminds me of a wonderfully cooked home meal. Topped it off with some coffee and this weird hot cocoa cocktail. I actually despise chocolate but I would order that hot cocoa cocktail again if I could. Ambience/Decor/Service: really romantic American style restaurant decorations with dark lighting and old school seating and tableware. The server was a little late (other circumstances) but incredibly kind to talk to.
Food: 10/10 Service: 10/10 Ambience: 10/10 It's not often I give 5/5 stars, this place is exceptional! Food, was immaculate. Two of us got the burger, one of us got the salmon, and the other got a pot roast. Everything was soooo delicious. Our muscles we got for an appetizer were amazing as well! We even ended the meal with a spectacular dessert and dessert cocktails, absolutely amazing! Service, everyone was sooo friendly and happy to give a run down of the menus. Decently quick service as well, not too quick though. No complaints here at all, the host/manager was super helpful and friendly as well. Ambience, a cute little, European authentic whole in the wall. A bit tight, not a problem though. Cost*** This place is on the pricier side, especially if you're getting drinks, appetizers, meals, and desserts. I highly recommend hitting this place during your stay in Burlington!
