Leunigs Bistro has been a Burlington institution since it opened in 1980. Located on the corner of Church and College Streets on the Marketplace, it invites all passers by to visit Burlington's own little Parisian Cafe. The decor and ambiance will make you think you're in Paris, and the food will make you think you've died and gone to heaven. A member of the Vermont Fresh Network, Leunigs chefs prepare the best of local ingredients with a worldly accent. Live jazz with dinner Tuesday, Wednesday. Lunch served Monday-Saturday, Dinner every night, and Brunch on Sunday. Great wines by the glass or bottle, full liquor service. Best people watching in town. Reservations accepted, but not necessary. Every meal served with the panache of Paris and the value of Vermont, right in the center of town.

    LOVE that they brought back brunch. Absolutely delicious. The French toast bites were light on the inside with crunchy cinnamon sugar crust. Such a great value with two eggs, meat or veggie/meat side and potatoes. Server was sweet and attentive. A perfect leisurely Sunday meal.

    Unfortunately they happened to be out of my first two dinner choices, so I wasn’t able to try what sounded best to me. But the server was so polite and apologetic, and my third choice was pretty good. It was the green curry mussels, which were tasty but not terrific. The mussels were tiny and the broth was a little boring. My dining partner had the filet and loved it. All in all, the dinner was nice.

    Very nice restaurant. Ambience was fun, service was good. Food was just okay. Ordered beef bourguinon and only had one chunk of beef. Disappointing considering the price.

    The pumpkin bisque is incredible. I have never had a mediocre meal at Leunig’s. The consistency in meal quality and waitstaff is consistent.

    Appetizer was over cooked plus it tasted old. Entrees were cold. Noise was horrific. We had to shout at each other to hear across the table. Not a great experience.

    Extra effort by staff to accommodate wheelchair reservation and had it all ready for us. Great place for people watching while waiting for food. Food is excellent and choices are varied as seasons change. Being on Church Street in Burlington, which is a pedestrian mall, the street level noise is obviously not an issue. The bar can get quite noisy when full of diners, but it is a cosy place with atmosphere, which we enjoy.
