It was a peaceful Saturday morning breakfast. While the food was decent, the service fell short of expectations—acceptable, but not quite up to the standard one might anticipate from a resort of this caliber. The stunning grounds, however, provide a beautiful backdrop, though the kitchen could use some fine-tuning.

The waiter from South Africa was a true professional- attentive and charming! Our meal was outstanding. I loved the salad and he suggested adding salmon, which was a fabulous combination. The corn bread was a great starter and the covered and secluded patio was a nice escape from the festival noise happening elsewhere.

Our waiter was so kind and accommodating. I can’t remember his name but he was from South Africa. He went out of his way to take care of us. The food was great, the sugar Pearl waffles, Benedict and the Leo skillet was fantastic. I would definitely go back and recommend.

Cornelius was awesome. Professional service through and through. We were outside not under an umbrella with a very light rain starting, they were able to relocate us under an umbrella when the table opened up. The food was excellent. Wife had the risotto and I had the bison and elk pasta. Dirty plates were promptly removed, water was quickly refilled, and Cornelius was on top of the service. I ordered a cognac with desert which didn’t come until the check came but overall the experience offset this minor imperfection.

Hello Tony, Thank you for the kind words and great review! We are thrilled to hear you had a memorable dining experience and will let Cornelius and kitchen staff know about his great service. We are so glad that the late arrival of your cognac did not mar your dining experience. Thank you again for joining us at Leonora, we look forward to hosting you again soon. Best regards, Leonora Management & Staff
