   Ate at Leilani last night for the first time - Yum! Sat in the bar area at a table, Missy was our server, she was prompt and friendly. Edamame - fab, loved the chunkiness of the chile oil! Had the Lemon Grass Shrimp - sauce was light and fresh. Followed this with the Salmon Crudo, Hamachi Kinilaw, and Crispy Spicy Tuna - all were delicious and perfectly sized. Lastly, had the Dragon's Breath and the Summer rolls. I have to say - they were quite good, however we found them just average - the size was perfect, but was looking for a bit more of a flavor profile. Nonetheless, there are many other items on the menu we look forward to trying on our next visit! I do want to add, went downstairs to the Forbidden City bar - a bit of a let down. The bartender gave us the menu - we were not looking for anything 'funky' just wanted an Old Fashioned and a G& T......little variety for drinks not on the menu. If you want to just get a cocktail - stick with the upstairs bar.

   Great new place in Aurora! Food is really good with good App’s and dinner options. Great bar and good cocktails. Josh our waiter was awesome! Ask for him to to service you. Great recommendations on food and drinks. Love the atmosphere! Cozy and dark and great upstairs and downstairs bar (if open). Food is good!

   The food was very good, we had the Lumpia, Korean Fried Wings, Glazed Salmon, Skirt Steak with Chimmichuri and Bolgogi Fried Rice. They accommodated for my Celiac/GF/Allergy needs for the Korena Fried Wings, Salmon and my husbands Skirt Steak, and everything was incredible. I have to say the highlight was definitely the drinks, they were excellent. We will be back again and this time it's all about the appetizers and drinks. Highly recommend.

   We got there early for our reservation. While there were no spots at the bar and we couldn’t be seated earlier, we were offered a seating in the basement lounge. We could not get the same drinks as upstairs (this was a disappointment so should be addressed ) we were able to get some drinks only offered there and the one we ordered was very good. Loved the lounge ambience and it was perfect for sharing small plates and drinks!

   My wife and I went to Leilani for date night. We are foodies and have a particular interest in Asian cuisine. Leilani did not disappoint. The service, ambiance and food were all 5-star. The food was fresh, tasty and the dishes were all well balanced and more inviting with each bite. We are already planning our next visit to go for lunch as they have a fun lunch menu that we can’t wait to try.

    Celebrated a birthday there and our server, Angela F, was superb… So friendly, attentive, and kind. The ambiance was just right, good lighting & gorgeous decor. Then came the food… Outstanding. Very flavorful and just the right amount and mix of spices. Our table had the adobo fried rice, bulgogi fried rice, truffle shuffle (vegan), Brussels sprouts/kale salad, and charred edamame. Nothing fell short.
