We had an absolutely fantastic time with friends, enjoying delicious drinks expertly crafted by Christopher and desserts by Sammy. The ambiance was top-notch, and the service was both impeccable and swift. Highly recommend this spot for anyone seeking a memorable evening with great company and cocktails!

I went to Lela’s for HH with a larger group. They easily accommodated all of us. I ordered a New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc and when I tried it, it didn’t taste right. I tried to choke it down, but I’m very loyal to my NZ SBs. I finally had to say something to the server, and sure enough, the bartender gave me a CA SB because they were out of the one I wanted. I’m very appreciative that they gave me a new glass of wine of one of their nicest white burgundy’s and didn’t charge me for it, but I wish they would have been forthright in the beginning and let me decide what wine I wanted instead of just giving me the CA SB, as if I wouldn’t notice. Im hoping they’ll have my wine the next time I visit!

Had a reservation, but there was no one to check us in. After standing for 20 minutes, a waitress came and was looking for the hostess who is supposed to welcome guests. He left, came back to tell us there were no free tables, then left. He then came back and took us to a table by the wall where we had to wait 20 minutes before someone finally noticed us.

My husband and I celebrated our 15th wedding anniversary at the Sheraton and booked the dining package for two nights. We dined at Lela Friday and Saturday night and were, once again, impressed by the level of service and kindness from the staff. The mushroom soup and Wagyu burger and fries with garlic aioli hit all the perfect notes. We were pleased with the generous portions and quality of the food and drink. The thing that really sets Lela apart from other quality dining establishments is how genuine and kind the staff is, and how they make you feel like a VIP every time. We look forward to our next visit.

This was our first time eating at Lela after not even realizing it was so close to Eden Prairie and easy to get to. We live in Eden Prairie, and the food and bar scene has grown so stale we wanted to try something new. We sat at the bar and Christopher the bartender was amazing! The place was pretty busy, and it really had a great atmosphere. Christopher was super attentive and he did a great job with our cocktails and food suggestions. It was really a breath of fresh air, and blew away what we have been experiencing at places like Redstone and Wildfire lately in Eden Prairie. We will definitely be back soon, as we really enjoyed every aspect of it! I think this is only the 4th or 5th time Ive written a review for a restaurant online, but it was so good that when I came home I wanted to write a 5 star review! We highly recommend giving it a try if you havent already!

I don't normally like pasta but decided to give the hand-made pasta a try. BOLOGNESE PAPPARDELLE was amazing. I like 300 miles away and will need to fight the urge to drive here for this dish.

The food was very good. I had the Sea Bass. The restaurant had a lot of vacancies for dinner for a Friday evening. That was a positive for us. I rated Lela a four because its pricey.
